Chapter 10: Road Trip

 (Beth’s POV)

 Adam’s out of hospital now and recovering well. He’s gone back to school now so there’s a good sign of recovery. I’ve been avoiding Ryan in English and he’s been doing the same with me. I guess there’s no going back to what we had. I miss him, not gunna lie. But I have Adam’s friendship. Lauren is going out with Andy now and Fleur is sort of seeing Joel. I have no idea if Ryan has a girl but to be honest I need to stop caring. The school bell goes to indicate the end of the day; thank god. I begin walking to the school get to walk home. I have to go through the staff car park to reach the gate though. I walk out into the road and a car nearly hits me! They slam the brakes on as I flinch from the impact. They got out the car with a white face. It’s Ryan. Or Mr Fletcher as he’s called at school.

‘I am so sorry, Beth’ he says convincingly.

‘I’m sure you meant to try and hit me and scare me.’ I say spitefully.

‘No I’d never do that! Look I’ve been thinking about what you’ve said. About me not caring. I do don’t get me wrong. I want to show you that I do. I want me and you back. I want ‘us’ again.’ He says and I can see the truth in his eyes. I also see red lines from the lack of sleep he’s had.

‘And how exactly are you going to show me you care?’ I say while crossing my arms and popping my arse out a little with one knee slightly bent. Ryan admires my stance with a raised brow.

‘Get in the car, don’t ask questions’ he says while opening the passenger door.

‘Driving me to an empty quarry, killing me and burying me? Yeah I’ll really see how much you care for me’ I say bitchily.

‘Don’t worry I’m not gunna kill you, I love you too much to do that’ he smirks through his sentence.

‘Amen to that’ I say while winking. I put my foot forward to walk to the car door but then I think of something. I need to start making an improvement in my behaviour for my parents. I know I’ve always done bad things. And with Ryan they’ve been influenced more. I want to be with Ryan, but I also want my parents to trust me from now on. I mean they are letting me go to a special dance school after I was a complete bitch. Oh sh*t what about Adam? Will he hate me? I mean we weren’t going out at all so I’m sure he won’t care. I pull out my phone before I even step near Ryan’s car and dial mum’s number and she answers soon enough.

‘Hello sweetie?’ she says.

‘Hey mum, Ryan wants to take me somewhere on a date, can I go?’

‘Before I would have said no, but because you’re improving your behaviour and you’ve asked me so kindly and truthfully, yes of course!’

‘Thanks mum!’

‘Welcome sweetie. I’m so proud of you for trying’

Then she hangs up. I look at Ryan who’s still holding his car door open. I look straight in his eyes and he stares into mine oh so sexily. I then look around us to see if anyone is watching us. No one is so I happily step into the car and sit in the passenger seat. Ryan shuts the door and bends down to the passenger window. The window is fully down so he leans in and kisses me passionately and I let him. What the heck, I’ve missed him crazily.

He gets in the driver seat and he puts his aviator sun glasses on. He looks so hot. He gives me a pair the same exact kind and I put them on.

‘Might wanna put your head down till we get out of the school area’ he advises and I do as he says.

It takes him a bloody long while to confirm it’s ok to look back up again. I’ve basically buried myself in the glove box. I look up at him slowly.

‘Is it ok to look up now?’ I ask.

‘Yeah it was ok to look up 10 minutes ago’ he says while driving.

‘THEN WHY THE HELL DIDN’T YOU TELL ME THAT!’ I shout playfully while hitting him lightly.

‘Because you looked like you were having fun!’ Ryan says through his laughing.

‘Well thank you for thinking of me but now I have neck cramp all because of you!’ I say.

‘Aww, neck rub later?’ he says looking over his glass and winking sexily. God he makes me so horny. I need him more than ever. I know he needs to prove himself to me that he cares but he needs to hurry up about it!

I switch the radio on and a groovy song comes on that both me and Ryan know the rap to so we both sing along.

After a while I notice Ryan driving slower. It’s not pitch black outside and I have a gut feeling we are lost. Ryan just doesn’t want to admit it because he was trying to impress me.

‘We’re lost aren’t we?’

‘Yeah… sorry, babe. I set up a picnic for us to have on the bank of a lake. But I can’t find the lake.’

I look around and see something lit up with light in the distance. I point to it and say ‘look over there’.

Ryan accelerates heading in the direction I just pointed in. We pull up to a hotel. We look at each other and shrug.
