"Let's go! Let's go!" Trina cried, pulling me up from the couch.

"Be good, Katrina." Mrs. Knightly said in the most authoritative voice she could muster.

"Take good care of my girls, Shawn. Bring them back in one piece." Mr. Knightly said, clapping me on the back as they walked us outside to my jeep.

"Yes, sir." I shook his hand before opening the backdoor for Trina, helping her up, and buckling her seatbelt.

"Bye mom." Lexy said then entered the car.

"Bye Mr. and Mrs. Knightly."

"Drive safe, sweetie." Mrs. Knightly said before I entered my car and drove off.

"So, where are we going?" Trina asked from the back, looking out the window.

"It's a secret, darling." I replied, peeking at her through the rear view mirror.

"Can't you give us a clue?" Lexy chimed in, joining the conversation; she was looking at me intently with those mesmerizing eyes.

"It's going to be fun." I look at her briefly, winking, making her roll her eyes at me with a smile on her face.

"Well, that's a lousy clue." She mumbled, crossing her arms in front of her chest with a pout.

"Aw, come on." I snicker at her, making her roll her eyes at me. "Don't you roll your pretty little eyes at me."

She opened her mouth to say something but got interrupted by Trina. "I'm sleepy." She mumbled and yawned.

"Sleep, baby. Shawn will wake you up when we get there." Lexy said, giving Trina her bag to use as a pillow.

"Yeah, and you'll need all the energy you can get so sleep for a while." I added, looking through the rearview mirror.

Not a minute after, Trina was already asleep in the backseat leaving me to fend for myself.

"So, you're really not going to tell where we're going?" Lexy questioned, yet again.

"Nope."

"You're not going to bring us to some private place and sacrifice us to someone, are you?" She asked with eyes wide open.

"If I was, why would I tell you?" I chuckled at her. "But I won't."

"Then why does a famous singer like you want to hang out with a young fan and her big sister?"

"I honestly don't know." I trailed off, looking at her briefly to find her already looking at me with her head tilted in confusion.

"Are we close?"

"Hm, probably twenty to thirty minutes maybe and we need to ride the ferry.." I trailed off, not saying anything more that might give off where I'm taking them.

"I think I have a clue of where we're going." She squinted her eyes at me while I just grinned at her. "Okay, well, since we're going to be driving that long and Trina's asleep, why don't we get to know each other so we wouldn't be in the company of a stranger?" Lexy suggested, lowering the volume of the radio.

"Yeah, okay. That sounds good." I nodded in agreement. "So how'd you want to do this getting to know each other?"

"We could alternately ask questions? Kind of like 20 questions?"

"That sounds good. You go first."

"Uhm, how old are you?" Lexy mumbled, probably shy about asking her question.
