Weekend Away

Surprise!

"Angel wake up, we're stopping for gas you want something"
"ughhhhh water please"
Jensen said groggy from sleeping the last 20 minutes. When Cody returned with water and some road snacks, Jensen was just falling back asleep. Cody filled the tank and they were on the road again.
it was almost 5 when Cody's cell phone rang. Jensen who was still fast asleep didn't even stir. He pulled over to the side of the road and looked at the caller ID.
"what is it Frank."
"I'm still waiting for my money Detent"
"I told you I was robbed, I'm don't working for you."
he looked over at Jensen sleeping quietly.
"find someone else to sell your drugs."
"it doesn't work like that Cody you know that, we will be collecting you and my money in time."
"wait-"
"we're coming for you."
the line went dead.
Cody slammed the wheel. He knew that Frank wasn't bluffing and he also knew that he would have called eventually. It was the  real reason he took this surprise trip he needed to keep her safe from his past. Because without her he was nothing, if Frank and his men found them he knew what would happen. He needed to keep this a secret from Jensen for now at least. he started the car and continued to their destination.

"Angel, we're here wake up"
"noooooooo"
"okay then I'll have to carry you"
Cody picked up her out of the car and carried her bridal style into an old cottage made entirely of oak wood. Cody unlocked the door and plopped Jensen down on the sofa. She started snoring again, Cody rolled his eyes and smiled as he walked back out to get the rest of the luggage. As soon as Jensen heard the door shut she peak one eye open, then jolted upright looking around with a huge smile on her face. The cottage was beautiful; she got up and started walking around. It was small and cozy only 2 bedroom and 1 bathroom, there was a tv in front of the coach she was just sitting on, as she continued thought the house she came into the main room there was a medium sized kitchen with a stove, microwave and sink and a small table with 2 chairs looking out on the ocean. Jensen had a wide smile on her face as she rushed over to the wall sized window looking out on the ocean, outside she could see a wooden stair case leading to the beach, she could see the waves crashing on the white sand. She gazed out into the sunset,
lighting up the sky with a bright summer orange.
"beautiful isn't it"
Jensen's whirled around to face Cody as he walked into the main room
"Cody where are we!? this is amazing!"
"it was my grams cottage she gave in to me last summer before she moved in with my aunt."
"it's beautiful Cody"
"so are you"
"oh god Cody you're so cheesy!"
"Come on that was c-"
"Cheesssssse balllll."
"You're gonna get it now!"
Jensen laughed and ran out of the room as Cody chased after her, She made it out the door into the front yard and turned around as Cody got out the door.
"You're it!"
Jensen yelled. Cody darted after her as she made her way to the beach. When she hit the sand she tripped and fell to her knees in the sand and started laughing as she put her hands up in surrender.
" Aha I have caught her"
Cody exclaimed in a terrible British accent.
" yes yes I surrender take me away!"
Jensen retorted in an equally  horrible accent. Cody sat down next to her and pulled her into his lap as they watch the sun disappear into the horizon.
"how long will we be here?"
"all summer"
"really?"
"yeah is that ok? I thought you liked it here?"
"Yes of course I love it here but what about my mom, your parents our friends? We won't see them all summer?"
" they can come visit whenever, your mom is coming in 2 days to drop off the rest of your stuff."
"oh okay"
"sorry I sprung it on you, i should have told you, I'm sorry"
"no no Cody this is perfect. We are gonna have a great summer here"
Jensen looked up at Cody and kissed him on the cheek.
"let's head back up to the house it's getting a bit cold out."
"sure there's hot chocolate in the cupboard"
"oh my god I love you"
They both walked back up to the house for hot coco. After watching some tv
and unpacking they both collapsed on the bed and went right to sleep.
