Chloe's POV

I wake up to the sound of Max's hella awful alarm. Max doesn't move an inch; she's hella passed out hard. We stayed up pretty late yesterday watching movies and attempting to bake nice desserts. I can still slightly smell the burnt cake. I get up and lean over Max to reach her alarm. I turn it off and I lay back down. Time to wake and bake I guess since I can't go back to sleep, thanks to Max's fucking alarm. I blow out a puff of smoke and check my phone. I unlock my phone to reveal a new message... Warren? What the hell.

Warren- Hey. Max isn't answering my texts. Is she okay? She hasn't really been around lately. I'm starting to get worried.

Chloe- Thanks for hella interrupting our makeout session!

Warren- What????

Chloe- Warren let me break it to ya. You don't stand a chance with my girlfriend... unless you're into girl on girl action then I mean.....

Warren- Oh you and Max are dating now?

Chloe- Well... according to last night... 

Wario stopped responding. Damn messing with Warren is so entertaining. My insane outbursts of laughter woke up Max. I lean over and kiss her on the cheek. "Morning Maxi-Pad!"

"Why are you laughing so hard?" Max says half-asleep. I seemed to have disturbed a nice dream or something... of me probably.

"Look at this!" I hand her my phone, which was opened to Warren's texts.

"OH MY CHLOE!!! THIS MUST'VE KILLED HIM!" Max says with her eyes and mouth open.

I don't know if she's mad or happy... fuck what if I screwed up. Maybe there was a reason why she didn't tell Warren yet...... But why the fuck wouldn't she tell him. Maybe she wanted to tell him. Max's face was unreadable. She was still staring at the phone, reading the messages over and over again. "Look Max. I'm so----"

Max's blank face turned into a huge smile, letting out a little giggle. "This is hilarious! I can't wait to see his face when I go back to school!"

Oh fuck I got scared for a second. Max shot up from the bed and headed towards her clothes. "Chloe," she said, "We're going somewhere. It's a surprise. Don't ask. Get dressed. I'm driving the truck."

I leap up at the sound of demanding Max. I wonder what she's got going on in that head of hers. I put on my clothes and we both climb out the window. Max climbs in the driver's seat and adjusts the mirrors to suit her. Honestly, I'm hella scared of her driving the truck. I mean she knows how to drive. She has a driver's license. She just doesn't have a car. This is the only one I've got and if Max crashes my child I swear.... Max backs out of the driveway and heads towards town. 

---------------------------------------------------

Max looks over, "Your truck is easier to drive than I thought."

"Well don't get used to it babe." I laugh. Max rolls her eyes as we cruise through town.

We stop next to a row of shops... in the middle of the road... I swear if another ca----

Max looks over at me with puppy eyes. "Chloeeee can you please park the car? I'm not good at it."

Are you serious Caulfield. "Max. How are you supposed to get good at it, if you won't even practice?"

Max remains silent, batting her eyes even harder and smiling wider. Fuck I can't say no to that cute face of hers. "Okay fine Max! Only because I love you." Max smiles and climbs over to the passenger side over my lap and I climb into the drivers. I park the car parallel to the curb and climb out. "Next time you're parking. No excuses." Max rolls her eyes at me and kisses me on the cheek. We hop out of the car. I still have no idea where we're going and Max won't tell me, she just grabs my hand and leads me down the sidewalk. Max tells me to close my eyes and cover them with my hands. She goes behind me and starts pushing me, guiding where I was going. We stopped. She told me to open my eyes and we were standing in front of the tattoo parlor I got my sleeve at. Holy shit. Is Max going to....
