Slowly, I wake up looking around to see the familiar city, I grew up in
"Oh good your awake. So where do you want to go? It's around 7 PM right now!" He said for me to look around the city
"Oh turn to the right!" I said for him to do as told "park right there!" I said for him to turn into the parking lot. He looks around the place
"Where are we?" He asked walking out. I smile
"Come on you'll see!" I said grabbing hold of his hand pulling him into the Ice Cream store. Once inside I let go of his hand "I use to come here when I was little with my dad and then worked here before going to the school!" I said with a smile. I walk forward to see Amber the only girl in this whole place who was actually nice to me "hey Amber!" I said with a smile. He eyes grow wide
"Amelia hey how are you? You just disappeared you okay? Oh you got a boyfriend? How has life been? How has your parents? Did you mom hurt you?" She asked in a rush pulling me into hug over the counter. I chuckle
"I'm good, Amber I got excepted to a school far away. I came back to visit my dad and her!" I said lying about the visiting both my parents and pushing the question about Jeff away. She smiles and nods before wiggling her eyebrow. I light glare at her rolling my eyes
"Okay. Let me guess the usual?" She asked for me to smile and nod. She looks behind me at Jeff for me to turn my head so close to kissing him elm where he stood behind me "and what would you like?" She asked for him to look at her then down at me
"Same as her!" He said for a smile to crack on our faces
"You sure about that?" I asked holding back a laugh because I knew he did not want what I get. He looks worried for me to chuckle turning to her "get him a 126!" I said for her to nod wiggling her eyebrow. She grabs two cones before going over and getting him a chocolate and vanilla swirl, while she get's me random ice cream flavours choosing my favourites, mint chocolate chip, cookie and cream, and a chocolate vanilla swirl. She walks over for me to hand her a twenty dollar bill
"It's on the house. You are our best costumer after all!" Amber said for me to give her a light smile
"Thank you!" I said with a grateful smile. Jeff and I go sit in a booth on the side
"You guys seem very close!" He said cutting throw the silence. I nod
"Yah she's a real good person!" I said honestly "we can stay in the motel right beside here. It's very good, and cheap!" I said for him to nod. After finishing our Ice Cream's I say bye to Amber and we went to the Motel. After a long talk we we're only able to get a room with one bed, which would be very awkward. Once we arrive in the room their's a couch and bed
"I'll sleep on the couch!" He said for me to go to protest
"No I'll sleep on the couch. You should get the bed you did pay for this room after all!" I said stubbornly. Jeff sighs
"Then let's just both sleep on the bed sense we're both very stubborn!" He said in a firm tone, before walking into the washroom. I hear the shower start to run and change into a tank top and some shorts, which is usual what I sleep in. When he walks out he's in some sweat pants and no shirt. Feeling awkward, I look away before we both get into bed falling asleep!
----------------
Slowly, I wake up confused on why I didn't have a dream seeing Aunty Annabelle because I always remember those. I go over to the phone ordering room service, before getting into the shower. Once finished in the shower I quickly change just in time to hear a knock on my door. I quickly thank the man for the food before he leaves. Once gone I go over to Jeff shaking him awake
