The long drive of misery.

Aiden is looking out the window with absolutely no idea of what I'm going through.

Whatever, not important that he does anyway.

All I'm thinking about right now is where the heck am I going to sleep?

I would've gone to Kaylee's but her family is having one of those, as she likes to call them, truce dinners to make bonding time for her and Melanie.

Just then, my phone rings.

Oh no.

"When there's trouble you know who to call... TEEN TITANS!"

I look at Aiden who stares at me for a while and then bursts out laughing.

"It's not funny." I say as I check the caller ID.

Ellie.

"Sooo.. How'd it go!!" She starts off in her usual loud voice.

"How'd what go?" I say in response.

"You know, your kinda date with my cousin. I mean,  the biology project that Machi and I totally accidentally ditched you two for! Wink wink." I couldn't believe what she was saying. I stopped the car, almost losing control- again.

"Woah, I think I should drive." Aiden says beside me as we came to an abrupt halt.

"You are not driving!" I say.

"Wait a sec, bih are you with him right now? Hey Aiden! Make sure you use protection! I don't want any Aiden-bellas running around!" I let out a weak chuckle when she said this.

"Aiden-bellas?"

"Yeah.. I can't really make a ship name for you two so I just went ahead an--"

"And used my middle name. You're ridiculous El." I rolled my eyes when I said this. Aiden just kept glancing at his watch and looking out the window while letting out exasperated sighs.

"Can we go now?" He says.

I mime the words "just a sec".

"Hey El?"

"Yeah Izzy?"

"What are you doing tonight?" I ask while biting my lip.

"Umm.. Nothing really. Just planning on binge watching episodes of the flash and death note, why?"

"Well, I.. Can I.. You know, join you? Just for tonight?" I wasn't really comfortable with anyone but Kaylee as I grew up only in her and Kanisha's company.

"Well sure! You really don't even need to ask!" I could hear the excitement in her voice. "Is everything okay though? You seem a little less.. You."

"Umm.. Yeah, I'm.. I'm okay." I could tell she could read the fakeness in my response.

"Okaaayyy. Well, we'll talk later then." I'm so glad she didn't push it though.
