I Don't Even Know Your Name

Off to L.A!

*Shawn's POV*

I began helping Ruth pack her suit case for tour. We didn't know how long she was going to be with me, so we decided to pack two weeks worth of clothes for her, I figured could always get her more if she needed it.

"I'm so excited!" Ruth exclaimed.

"I know, I am too! I can't wait to spend time with my cutie" I grinned.

She started blushing again, I loved when her cheeks turned all rosey.

"And I can't wait to be with you every minute of everyday." She smiled up at me.

We went back to loading her clothes into her bags. It took a little over an hour before we were done. It probably wouldn't have taken that long if we knew how to stay on task for more than ten minutes. We kept stopping and talking about what we were going to do on tour, we were just too excited.

"I better get going, I still have quite a few things to get done before our plane leaves tomorrow." I said to Ruth, who was zipping up her suit case.

"Okay love, I think my parents are going to want to drop me off at the airport tomorrow, so what time should I meet you there?" She asked.

"I think four O'clock should be good."

"Okay, sounds good to me! I'll walk you out." She said, opening her door.

"If someone would have told me a year ago, that this was going to happen, I would have never believed them." I said to her, as I leaned my back up against the rental car.

"Honestly, same. This was something that I would only dream about, but I never thought it would become real." She smiled.

"I'm so glad you're coming with me."

"Me too." She spoke, in her soprano pitched voice.

"I'll see you tomorrow." I said, as I grabbed both of her hands, and put my forehead on hers.

"I'll see yah." She said, giggling softly.

I gave her a kiss on her little pink lips, then slipped into my car.
As I pulled out of the driveway, she waived at me with another precious grin.

The whole way home, I could not keep my mind off of her. She's so fun, and down-to-earth, and not to mention how beautiful she is. How her curls fall perfectly around the side of her smile. I think I'm really beginning to fall for her.

When I got back to the hotel, I finished up packing the rest of my things. When I was done, I pulled out my guitar. I love playing guitar before going to bed, it's so calming. I played a little bit of "The Weight" and let the music take me to another place. I imagined myself singing with Ruth, like we did for the first time. When her voice sent chills down my back, and her smile made my heart skip a beat.

Before packing up my guitar, I sent Ruth a text.

"Goodnight 😘"

I was able to put away my guitar just before my phone buzzed.

"Nighty night, don't let the bed bugs bite, if they do, hit em' with a shoe 😜💕"

She is so cute.

"Haha! go to sleep yah goofball!" I texted back.

"💜" She replied.

I felt a grin spread across my face.

*Ruth's POV"

"Good morning to you! Good morning to you! We're all in our places, with bright shining faces, is this not the way, to start the new dayyyyyy?!!!" I heard my Mom singing in her operatic voice, as I was still half asleep.
