for him. (First in the Blue Neighbourhood Series)

  We try staying up late but we both are light weights  

This was their twenty-second motel, she was starting to get tired of it though. Sure it was fun to not be tied down anywhere, but she also missed the aspect of having a solid schedule. She knew she couldn't go on much longer like this. She was also afraid of letting Jackson know though, because she could see how much of a thrill he got from this. Then again what if they had kids one day, they couldn't live life like that. They were also going to eventually run out of money, and what would they do then. This was all just becoming extremely stressful. 

Sophia was pulled from her thoughts when a shirt smacked her in the face. She looked up to see a smiling Jackson, "What were you thinking about babe?"

Sophia fidgeted nervously, she didn't know whether or not she should tell him. She had waited too long though, because Jackson came to her side and sat down next to her on the old bed. "You know you can tell me anything Soph." His eyes were wide and caring. This was one of the things she loved most about him. He always cares and you can always see it too.

"I know, I guess I'm just getting nervous about this whole traveling thing. I mean we are going to run put of money eventually."

"I realize you're nervous but can't we just keep this going for a little bit longer. I mean we're at such a good spot and I want it to last."

"I'm not going to be in a good spot for much longer Jackson, traveling doesn't make me happy anymore. I just want to settle down with you and get a cute little house, and raise cute little kids, who will go to a cute little school, all in our own cute little town." She had this passion in her eyes that Jackson just couldn't ignore.

"Okay babe how about this, three more stops. Then we can live wherever you want, you will make all the decisions that you want to make with me right by your side the entire time." She smiled up at him because she knew that this was the best solution. 

"Yea, I would like that a lot." They smiled at each other as they got under the covers, there was only a lamp on next them so that they could barely make out the outline of each other's faces.

"So, tell me more about our future life babe." That's how they spent the rest of their night, until the fell asleep at about nine because let's face it. They are both lightweights.

I literally suck at updating, but in my defense, it's soccer season and my English teacher gives us loads of homework every  night. Also can I just talk about Divide for a second and how I'm literally obsessed with it. New Man, Galway Girl, and Nancy Mulligan are definitely my favorites, but I love the entire album as a whole.
