These Boys

Ch.9- Tired, Or Nah?

Jadyn's POV•

When we were all able to finally get ourselves together and clean up the board games that we played, it was nearly 12:00. We were having so much fun until we didn't want it to end. It was even better knowing that we were going as visitors with the Magcon boys!

For nearly an hour all we talked about was what to bring, where to meet the boys at the airport, and what the plan for the trip this week was. The more we talked about it, the more excited we became. Soon enough, the tiredness crept into us.

"Aaaaaaaaaaan." Meghan yawned bringing her hand up to her mouth.

"You a little sleepy babe?" Matthew asked her, sounding half playful and half serious.

"Yeah, a little haha." She said with another yawn.

"I'm tired too." Bridgid, Katie, and I sleepily agreed.

"Awww, the poor babies." Carter, Taylor, and Shawn teased us grinning. We just laughed and rolled our eyes as we slowly started to stand up.

"Ok well we're gonna hit the road now since we're all really sleepy." Bridgid told the guys. We had started to slip on our shoes when they stopped us.

"Wait, you guys don't have to leave. It's really late and we don't want you guys out driving home this late." Carter explained to us.

He turned around as if to get the guys to show they felt the same. They all shook their heads up and down as if saying they agreed with Carter. They didn't want us to get in an accident, showing that they seriously cared about us.

"Please please please stay the night!" They all pleaded while bending down on their knee proposal style. We couldn't help but laugh at how ridiculous they looked sitting in a row like they were asking us to take their hand in marriage.

"We would love to stay with you guys tonight, but I'm pretty sure our parents would rather have us home." I said sadly. To be honest, I really wanted to stay but I knew my mom wouldn't let me since she hasn't met any of them yet. The other girls' parents most likely felt the same way as mine. "Maybe some other time though?" I asked with another slight yawn before we continued to get our shoes and jackets.

"Uhm... yeah, yeah of course." He said while rubbing the back of his neck looking stressful. "No problem." Carter forced a smile on his face even though I could tell how hurt and worried he was that we chose to drive home instead.

After gathering our belongings, we exchanged hugs with the guys before they opened the front door to let us out. While Bridgid, Meghan, and Katie walked out to the car, I remembered I forgot my cell phone sitting on the table in the kitchen.

Walking back quickly, I reached across the table to grab my phone right as I felt someones hands gently wrap around my waist. Before I had a chance to turn around and see who it was, I could feel his heavy breath breathing down the side of my neck.

"Drive safe...please." Carter whispered faintly into my ear. Instead of being scared by his approach, I felt safer and loved. No matter what, I always felt as if Carter and I were meant to be together.

"We will." I whispered back. We stood there, him holding on to my waist while I stood there with my head tilted back onto his shoulder. I didn't want it to end, but Bridgid was yelling for me to hurry up.

I said goodbye to Carter before giving him one last hug. I climbed into the back seat of the car with Meghan driving since she was the oldest.

"Bye! See you guys Sunday!" They exclaimed while waving their hands goodbye. We took one last look at the love of our lives before backing out of their driveways and heading home.
