"Do we have everything?" Brendon turned around and asked me.

"I think so," I looked around and Brendon smiled.

"First road trip together, Arizona then Arkansas," Brendon chuckled and I nodded.

"I hate being in a car for a long time so I apologize in advance," I laughed, and Henry sat at my feet, his leash on him.

"You should've said that when we started dating, 'I'm sorry in advance'," Brendon joked and I hit his shoulder.

"Shut up!" I laughed.

We've been driving for three hours, we're two more hours away from Las Vegas.

I sat in the passenger's seat, wrapped in a blanket. Henry's asleep in the backseat and Brendon's driving.

"You know the Twenty Øne Piløts song 'Tear In My Heart'?" Brendon questioned and I nodded at him. "Well the lyrics that say you fell asleep in my car, I drove the whole time, but that's okay, I'll just avoid the holes so you sleep fine, reminds me of you right now."

"I'm sorry I was last minute packing at three in the morning!" I replied and Brendon smiled.

"It's adorable though; you get so stressed out when we do things like this," Brendon smiled warmly at me and I felt my cheeks slightly burning.

"It's not cute to me!" I laughed and Brendon shook his head at me.

"Do you think the face I make when I'm writing or playing and instrument is adorable?" Brendon smirked at me and I smiled at him guiltily.

"Yeah," I mumbled.

"Exactly," Brendon laughed at me. "I don't think my face is adorable."

"But it is!" I squealed. "I love your face."

"I know," Brendon winked at me. "I love yours too."

"When we first met, tell me honestly, what did you think about me?" I asked and Brendon turned to me with a smile.

"I was a bit star struck, but I realized how nice you are in person and it just became like a normal interaction," Brendon shrugged. "I thought you were gorgeous, kind, smart, creative, and plainly perfect."

I felt my cheeks burning and Brendon smiled at my response.

"What about me, what did you think about me?" Brendon smirked.

"I thought you were cute, trying to get back into reading..." I laughed. "You were really cute asking me, I just thought you were really nice and really cute."

"That's a lot of really's," Brendon laughed at me. "I must have been incredibly sexy."

"That too, but-"

"I was?!" Brendon exclaimed.

"You're Brendon Urie," I laughed. "You're everything at once."

"I know," Brendon flipped his fake hair.

"Okay not all of us can be you, stop bragging!" I responded.
