chapter 10

I was throwing up.

I was on the side of the road, tears stinging inside my eyes and throw up rushing out of my mouth.

Dan gave me a napkin and some mouth wash, and chuckled. "I always use to get sick on car trips. So I always bring mouth wash with me. You'll be fine." He says, grabbing some water from the back of the car.

I nod and clean up my face, I use the mouth wash and spit it out. Dan comes from behind me and laughs. "I also have a spare tooth brush. Use this." He handed me the tooth brush and the paste. "Oh, and I think that's enough powdered donuts." Dan adds, taking the bag to the backseat.

I finished brushing my teeth, as if nothing happened. I sighed. "I thought I was a goner." I said, pushing the tooth brush and paste into a little bag we took along with us. Dan started the car and waited for me to get in a comfortable position. Suddenly, I gasped. "We should play a game!" I shouted, causing Dan to burst out in laughter. "I thought something happened to you, you cinnamon roll!"

I simply shook my head and lowered the the volume of the music. "Let's play the alphabet game!" I said, crossing my legs and Dan began driving.
"Alright, how do you play?" He asked, glancing at me, a small smile placed upon his cheeks.

I cleared my throat. "First, we'll start with A. We both have to name a food that starts with the letter, not a brand. Then we can move on to the next letter. You can have one skip." I explained, wrapping the blanket around my body. Dan nodded. "Fair enough. Okay, for A, I'll say apple." Dan had a smirk upon his face, knowing I was going to say that. "I'll take avacado." I reply, not bothered by the fact that he took my word.

"For B, I say banana." I almost shouted, so he wouldn't steal my food.
Dan laughed and shook his head. "Damnit, I'll say, um," He groaned. "Phil! You took my word!" He whined, playfully hitting my shoulder. "You took my-"
"Oh! Butter! I'll take butter!"
I rolled my eyes and smiled. "Of course you would."

"What's that supposed to mean?"

"It means you would take butter as your choice of word. It means exactly as I put it."

"I suppose I would also put butter all over my nak-"

"Don't say it!" I put my hand over his mouth, and he licked it. "No!" I shrieked, wiping my hand on his shirt.
He smirked. "Do not put your hand on my mouth, that's your warning."
"Warning? What's the consequence?" I laughed, still was wiping my hand on him.
"You don't want to know."

I shivered. "I probably don't."

[Time skip]

"How long has it been?" I asked, groaning. Dan smiled. "Seventy years." He replied, pulling into a gas station. Once he pulled in, I ran out into the little store and used the restroom.
I finished and walked back out to see Dan pumping gas into the car.
"We're technically already here, it's just up that mountain. About 20 minutes." He says, finishing up and unlocking the car, as we both sat in the car.

"Alphabet game?"

"We played that like 8 times already, Phil. Plus, like I said, we're already here."

"But Dan! Twenty minutes is a lot!" I whined, sticking out my bottom lip.
Dan shook his head. "Phil, take a nap." Dan suggested. I sighed and put my pillow against my head and wrap the blanket around me. "Goodnight."

Dan laughed. "Goodnight, Phil."

[ Dan pov ]

Once I knew Phil was asleep, I took out my phone and took a picture of him.
He looked so cute while he slept.

No, no I couldn't think of this.

I had to remember the deal.

* Flashback *

"Alright, Howell, I'll make you a deal. If you could make pretty boy Lester over there fall in love with you, I'll clear your name and give you the money to repay. Got it?"

I eagerly nodded. "Got it."

I looked at the raven haired boy who had bright blue eyes, a smile who looked purely happy. Well, I was about to wreck that.

Question is, how would I make him mine?

*End Flashback*

I texted Chris about the deal and told him I would call him back later when I had the chance to discuss it further.

I stroked the sleeping boy's hair and smiled, a bitter sweet smile. "Oh poor you, you won't even know what hit you. And that pretty smile of yours will be no more. Your shining blue eyes will be lifeless and dull. Soon."

I couldn't help but feel a smirk grow across my face. "Enjoy the ride for now."
