The Bucket List

Chapter six

Chapter six

Just like Toby promised, he was here at ten. I had just gotten done with my letter to mom and had my suitcase by the window.

Mom hadn't even tried to talk to me since Toby left about two hours ago, only said she was going to bed. Not that I cared, I only locked my door.

Toby knocked on my window, startling me. I grinned at him and opened my window, greeting him with a kiss. He took my suitcase and took off towards his car while I went and unlocked my door. When I went back to my window Toby was already there. He helped me out the window and closed it behind me before taking my hand and walking to the car.

When we got in the car I felt like my heart was going to explode. I kept expecting the door to slam open and my mother run out to stop me. But she never did.

Toby started up the car and pulled out slowly, as if waiting for her to come out too. When we were on the road I squealed from adrenaline. "Did you take your night medicine?"

"Not yet." I admit. "I didn't want to fall asleep before you got here."

"Take it now, baby. We're not really driving tonight. Maybe just to the outside of town so we can stay in a hotel and leave for the real ride tomorrow."

I sighed and reached in the back seat to pull my bag of medications to find the right pill. I swallowed it dry before sitting back. "Promise you'll wake me up when we get to the hotel."

"I promise."

I stretched in a hard bed, familiar warm arms held around me tight. I breath slowly as my surroundings become clear and snuggle into Toby. He carried me inside and took my pants off me judging from the feel of sheets against my bare legs. I still wore his hoodie and I assumed I had underwear on.

Toby shifted and I felt his hand crawl toward my butt. "I know your awake." I giggle.

Toby grins without opening his eyes. "Are you hungry?"

"Starving." I admit.

But neither of us want to pull away. Comfortable and content I moan as my stomach growls. "Carry me to the food."

Toby immediately pulls away and leans over the bed to scoop me up. I scream and giggle, playfully throwing my arms around and kicking. "Toby, put me down." I giggle.

Toby grins and lowers me to the ground, kissing me as he does. When he pulls away he smiles again. "You sleep like the dead, your phone went off so many times."

Stepping away from him I pick up my phone that he plugged in for me. "It's my mom."

Toby wrapped his arms around me from behind and nuzzled my hair. "Call her back."

I squeeze my phone. "She'll tell me to come back."

Toby snorts. "Of course she will, Aaron." I stare at my phone and Toby sighs, reaching over my shoulder to unlock my phone and go to my contacts. "Call her."

"When did you learn my password?" I huff.

Toby laughs. "Your password spells love."

He pokes my side and I giggle. "Can I call her after breakfast? In case she says something that makes me lose my appetite?"

Toby grins. "Sure, but after breakfast you have to call her."

"Sir, yes sir." I kiss his neck and make a move for the door but he pulls me back by the back of his hoodie.

"Put some pants on." He laughs.

"No one but you knows I don't have pants on." I laugh.

He let's go and I immediately run out the door, randomly following hallways when I reached a door. Toby follows slowly behind me, letting me giggle and blindly wander around. When I finally found the dinning room I immediately went for the juice machine. I easily downed a cup of orange juice and went for another, moaning as I sipped it. "I LOVE orange juice!"
