A Million Reasons (Clony)

Chapter 21⚠️

I couldn't ride the bike Tony got me for another few days when my cast will be taken off. And when I finally got it off, the first thing I did was wash my arm. You have no idea how bad it can smell after having a cast on.

Tony knocked at the door that evening. We welcomed him to dinner and soon rested with each other in my room.

"Tony do you want to take a bath with me?" I smiled, looking up at him. He smirked. "I'm taking that as a yes." I got up, pulling his arms with mine. He started to undress. "Wait." I closed the door all the way and locked it. Don't want any... uncomfortable moments again. We continued to strip as I drew the bath. Waiting for the water to warm up, and being careful to not put too much water as our two bodies will be in it. He wrapped his arms around my waist waiting for the water.

He was the first to get in, then I stepped in, and rested on his stomach.  I sighed. He put his arms around me again.

"I love you Clay." He whispered.

"I know." I shifted on his warm body. "And I love you too."

"Now don't drip any ice cream in my car Clay." Tony says handing me a cone.

"I NEVER waste ice cream." I teased, grabbing napkins because I truthfully can't even trust myself. But, I ended up inhaling my cone without a single drop getting on me or the car seat. Tony was parked in the parking lot, eating his cone as I sat there waiting for him to finish. I stared and smiled.

"What?" He laughed. "Is there something on my face?"

"No! It's just." I laughed. I'm really doing this. "I've never driven a car before." I smiled more, awkwardly.

It took a few seconds, but his eyes widened. "No Clay! You are not driving my car. My car is almost as important as you are."

"Pleeease." I begged. "I need prawktice"

"No. Momma Tony says no."

"Okay, so this is the gearshift," Tony pointed while sitting in the passenger side. "The petal on the right is the gas, don't slam it. The petal on the left is the break. Don't slam that one either. You only use your right foot. And go slow!"

I put it in gear and drove around the parking lot. He wouldn't let me drive on a real street which is understandable.

"Good and- go slower." He guided me into a parking space. "Slower, turnturnturnturnturn, and there." He rested back in his seat as I put the mustang in park. Clearly relieved, I smiled at him for the honor of driving his precious car.

"Anything else you want to learn?" He said jokingly.

"Yes" I grabbed his hands, and with the most serious face and realization. "Put your hands on me."

His mouth gaped open, and his chocolate eyes widened. "Wh-what?"

"You heard me." In a sudden movement, I clumsily leaped onto his lap in the passenger seat.

"Clay!" He said as I straddled him. "Maybe we can do this somewhere else?" He looked to the right with his eyes. There was another car next to us, with a family still in it.

"Sure." I blushed.

I got back into the drivers seat to get out and switch spots with Tony. He put on a cassette that started with "Pearly Dewdrops Drops'" because he knows I love that song.

He drove as the sun was setting.

"Where are we going?"

"Where do you think?" He pulled up a dirt road.
