Challenge :A.C.M:

45.

Something short but it's written on my phone and I can't get a good measure of length on my phone

:austin:

"I thought you were going to explode before it even started" Griffin giggles, and I groan, covering my face with my hands.

"Shut up, it's been a while" I roll my eyes, and she laughs harder.

"How long is a while?" She asks, and I shrug.

"Hmm, nine, ten months" I answer, and her eyebrows crinkle, before relaxing.

"We met that long ago" She says quietly, and I nod, turning my head to glance at her quickly before looking away "Austin" She drawls out.

"Shh" I cover her mouth with my hand and she rolls her eyes, removing my hand.

"I hate you" She rolls her eyes again and I chuckle.

"No you don't" I kiss her cheek, and a smile breaks out onto her face "See"

"It's a pity smile" She shrugs and I wrap my arms tightly around her waist and I bite her chin making her laugh loudly.

"No! Stop" She giggles, kicking her feet and trying to wiggle out of my grip.

"Baby" I chuckle "Sit still"

"No" She whines "I need to sleep" She closes her eyes and scoots into me, wrapping my arms  tighter around her "Go to bed" She demands and I laugh, kissing the back of her head.

"You go to bed"

"No bitch!" She smacks my leg.

"Ow!" I wince, smacking her leg back.

"Ow! Don't do that!"

"You did it to me first" She yells.

"But you didn't have to do it back!" I yell back to her and she rolls her eyes before closing them.

"I'm tired so shut up"

"Baby, I'm not tired anymore" I whine and she huffs, turning over to face me.

"Well, I am tired" She pouts.

"You're so pretty" I trail my finger down her nose and she chuckles, swatting my hand away.

"I really don't like you"

"Yes you do" I kiss her nose "You like me very much" I wink.

"Not if you keep depriving me of sleep" She raises an eyebrow and I chuckle.

"Fine, fine" I chuckle and she reaches behind me to turn off the lamp before returning to her position.

"Goodnight" I kiss her forehead, and she hums.

"Goodnight"

Griffin sways her hips to the song playing on the radio and I admire the way she moves. She dances around the kitchen, winking at me every so often.

A knock on the door followed by a call of Room Service floods our room and she grins.

"Waffles" She giggles, skipping to the door. She comes back after a few minutes, pushing a cart in front of her. She sits down on my lap, pulling the cart in front of us.

"Can you explain to me, how you go from completely sexy one second to adorable the next?" I ask and she giggles, shrugging.

"I'm just magic"

"I wouldn't deny it" I chuckle, kissing her cheek.

"Eat some waffle" She holds a fork full of waffle up to my lips. I eat it off the fork and she grins before doing the same "Fuck that's good"

"Very" I nod, grabbing the fork from her hand and getting another bite. Before I can bring the fork to my mouth however, she takes it and eats it, winking at me.

"Babe" I whine.

"Sorry, sorry. I just couldn't help myself" She giggles and I get more, leaning away from her before eating the waffle.

"What do you want to do today?" I ask and she shrugs.

"I don't care"

"I think we should go up to the pool" I suggest, wrapping my arms tightly around her waist, pulling her further against my chest.

"Hmm, that sounds nice" She nods.

"Good, finish eating and we'll change and leave" I kiss her cheek, I move her off my lap and get up, walking towards the kitchen "Do you want coffee?" I ask.

"No thanks"

I grab a mug and make myself some coffee, adding hazelnut mix because I know Griffin will want mine and she hates it. I wait for it to be done and walk into the bedroom and Griffin looks at my mug.

"You asshole"

"What?"

"You made hazelnut"

"How'd you know that?" I ask and she shrugs.

"It's smells like hazelnut" She chuckles "Good thing I didn't actually want coffee" She says, walking to get a bathing suit. I take the cart into the hallways while she changes, coming back in once she's done.

"I'll just meet you up there" She kisses my cheek, grabbing a towel and walking out of the hotel room.

I change into my swimsuit and grab a towel, taking the elevator to the rooftop pool. When I get up there, Griffin is sitting on the edge of the pool, her feet in the water.

I walk up behind her and sit down, wrapping my arms around her waist.

"You scared me" She jumps slightly and I chuckle.

"Sorry Baby" I kiss her cheek "Lets go swimming" I jump into the pool, placing my hands on her knees. She slides in from the side of the pool, tying her hair up into a bun.

"This pool is dead" She laughs "But it looks cool as fuck"

"So, I made a few decisions yesterday... while you were getting food..." I trail off and she raises an eyebrow.

"I'm going to Penn State" I cough and I see her face fall, but she catches herself.

"Oh, that's cool" She nods.

"I'm sorry. It's just, it has better opportunities for me and I just can't refuse"

"Don't worry about it" She shakes her head "It's whatever makes you happy" She smiles, leaning up to kiss my cheek "I'm obviously not going anywhere so..." She trails off.

"I'm going to call you everyday, and I'm going to visit as much as possible, I promise" I kiss her nose "I'm not losing you"

"I didn't say you would"
