JANE'S POV

After about an hour of driving Harry fell asleep. The sound of him breathing peacefully being the only thing that fills the car. I've been driving for about 3 hours now and I'm starting to get tired, so I decide to wake Harry up.

I nudge him lightly, trying to still keep both hands on the wheel. He groans slightly, his eyes flickering open.

"Harry, can you drive now? I'm exhausted," I say yawning. "It's been like 3 hours," I say being as dramatic as I can.

He doesn't answer, he just unbuckles his seatbelt and motions his hand towards the side of the road for me to pull over onto.

"Thanks" I say before getting out of the car, giving him a kiss and getting comfortable in the passenger's seat. I look out the window, watching the trees pass by quickly, and slowly doze off to sleep.

HARRY'S POV

Once Jane and I switched driving, she immediately fell asleep. I turned on the radio to a rock station so the drive wouldn't be completely silent.

A few hours went by and I wasn't super tired, but I was getting bored of just staring at the road and driving. Jane had been sleeping for almost 4 hours so I decided to wake her up.

"Janie, wake up," I said running my fingers through her hair.

She sat up and stretched before turning to me with a sleepy smile, "Hi Harry."

"Hello dear."

"Did you want to switch driving?" she asked me.

"No no I'm fine. I was just bored and decided to wake you," I say with a laugh.

"Oh okay. Where are we right now?" She asked me as she turned and looked out the window.

"Coming up to Oregon. We can stop in Portland for an early dinner if you would like," I tell her.

"Sounds good," she smiles. She puts down the sun visor and opens the mirror while starting to put her hair up, reminding me of when she was going to the farmers market with her parents.

"Your hair looks great..." I start say to her. She blushes, about to say something before I reach out and take her pony out once again with a wink saying " ... down."

She laughs and playfully hits my arm while I just a smirk, admiring her beauty.

"Wanna play would you rather?" she chirps happily, now with more energy from her nap.

"Sure. You go first," I say.

"Okay, would you rather... hike all day or swim all day?"

"Definitely hike. I love adventures," I answer. "Would you rather live where it's always hot or always cold?"

"Always cold. Because you can always put on more layers, but you can only take off so many."" she answers proudly. She then tilts her head with a curious and slightly worried look and asks, "Would you rather be alive again... or here. With me?"

I don't even think twice before answering with a smile, "With you Jane, I am living."

She smiles and leans in to kiss my cheek then sits back down now holding my hand.

"Okay Jane, would you rather keep playing, or get something to eat now that we are here?" I ask as I park the car outside of a diner, we finally made it to Portland.

"Eat!" she shouts getting out of the car.

We walk into the small restaurant and sit down in a booth towards the back. A waitress comes to take our orders.
