"Yo. If you live in Jacksonville, Alabama, you best be ready for us because we're coming for you!"

Our next stop was Alabama. The fact that I'm out traveling to each state, is honestly so amazing. 

"Sarah, lets go! Drag it, you're going to make us late."

I heard Ethan yell from the other room, he's been pushing me around lately and I really wish he would stop because he's starting to push my buttons the wrong way.

"I'm coming, do not rush me or you'll be in pain the next time you speak."

"Well, damn babe, I find it sexy when you talk to me like that."

What the fuck did he just say to me?"

I got up, walking towards the door, peeping my head out of it. "What did you just say?"

"You heard what I said."

He said before pushing me up against the wall, kissing my neck. I couldn't help but, let a small moan slip through my lips.

"Moaning already, love?"

"Ethan, stop...." My eyes rolled back. "This is wrong."

He moved his head over a few inches, to connect our lips.

The moved in sync.

"Common Sarah, why are you denying this? You know that you've been waiting this."

The moment that he took his lips off of mine, I woke up.

Holy shit.

Did I really just dream of that?

"Yo, common babe. We're going to be late, our plan leaves in 3 hours."

His head popped in the room, I jumped up to see Grayson.

"I'll be ready in a few minutes, okay?" I flashed a totally obvious fake smile.

"Woah, you okay?"

"Yeah, just nervous. I hate plane rides, you know that." I lied.

Okay, its sort of a lie.

I've been afraid of heights since I was young, so I do hate plane rides but, I didn't tell him the full truth.

"Babygirl, you'll be okay, I promise," He smiled, wrapping his arm around me. "Come here."

I slowly made my way over to him, climbing under his arm.

"You'll be okay, no one or nothing is going to hurt you, I promise."

"You're so... whats the word that I'm looking for?"

"Good looking, incredibly gorgeous, stunning, attractive?"

"All true things but, no," I laughed. "You're really sweet, how did I deserve this? What did I do to deserve this?"

"Just shut up and kiss me." 

I laughed once again, kiss him but, then I pushed him away from me.

"Hey, don't distract me. I have to get ready."

"Way to ruin our moment, babe."

"I'm sorry." 

The moment he walked out, I heard the door close. I turned back around to look at myself in the mirror.

"Sarah."

I flinched at the sound of someone banging on my door.

"What? Wait, first of all, who is it?"

"Ethan, now let me in."

Shit.

"I'm changing, go away."

"Well, then get changed and let me in."

"E, I'm being serious, go away."

"Okay, fine act like everyone else, just keep shutting me out."

Is he being serious right now?

"Ethan," I got up from where I was sitting, walking out of my room. "whats up?

Okay, so he knows how to work me. So what?

"Are you ready?"

"Are you for real? You banged on my door just to ask me that? Then you say that I'm shutting you out like everyone else?"

"Yeah, why not?"

He chuckled standing a few inches from myself.

I looked in his eyes, then I looked down at his lips. I traced his lips with my eyes. I didn't realize until now, how good his lips looked.

He literally towered over me, he's so damn tall.

Why do I keep doing this to myself?"

"I'll be back." I quickly ran off, back into my room, so I was able to change.

I threw on the first thing that I seen in my bags, then I went back out.

"Okay, I think I;m ready."

"I should probably tell you that we can't leave just yet."

"Why not?"

"We have to wait for Grayson and Indyiah."

"And where did they go?"

"Out to get some coffee."

That little shit.

He left me here without saying goodbye.

"Oh, well okay. I guess I can hang out with you for not."

"You make it seem like you're going to die if you hang out with me. We've hung out before, Sar."

I laughed a bit.

I might just die if I'm going to be hanging out with you any longer, if you only saw my dream, you wouldn't want to be anywheres near me.

"Nah, I'll be fine." I laughed it off, so he wouldn't know that I was lying.

But, apparently he knows me too well.

"Whats wrong?"

"Nothing, I'm fine."

"You're lying. I might not be Grayson or Indyiah but, I know when something is wrong and when you're lying. Whats going on?"

If I told you, you would look at me differently.

"Ethan, I'm fine." I said regretfully walking away, only to be pulled back.

"Stop lying to me."

"'I'm not, I'm fine."

He probably wouldn't be asking this many times, or at all if I stopped walking away or if I would just look at him so he would believe it.

"Yo, we're back!"

Thank fucking god.

"Bro, they didn't have what you usually get, so I got you something different."

"Which doesn't surprise me but, thank you."

"And here you go beautiful."

Ethan kept his eyes on me, I tried as hard as I could to keep my eyes and mind off of him but, I was failing, terribly.

If this was a test, I'm for sure that I would fail.

What the hell am I going to do?
