"Walk faster horsey!" I teased.

"Stop calling me horsey and you should know I'm not a robot. I'm already tired." He replied.

"You're just too lazy." I huffed.

"Lazy?! Are you serious? I'm the one carrying someone that weights 70 pounce on my back and you can actually say I'm lazy?!"

"Firstly, I weigh on 60 pounce and secondly, you won't have to carry me if I didn't get injured all because you distracted me in the first place."

"I just feel like dumping you in the bush right now." He replied.

"You wouldn't dare." I smiled and started playing with his hair.

He groaned and shook his head. "Keep your hands off."

"What's so special about the hair anyway?" I asked eyeing the hair. It looked so soft and silky and I wanted to touch it again and I was gonna.

"So far it doesn't trouble me like you do and it's a part of me then it's special." He replied.

"Stupid hair. Stupid boy." I said jealously. I roughened it and laughed when he grunted frustratedly.

"What's the big idea?!"

"Don't compare me to your hair next time."

"I didn't!"

"Yeah. You didn't."

"I just hate you so much." He said. I felt my heart pause.

He hates me? No!

Why am I even bothered?

"I hate you too." I lied through my teeth. To be honest, I don't want to leave his back. I was enjoying the ride and it was only because I was with him. I wished it'd never end but the more steps he took, the closer he was getting to the hotel.

The rest of the walk to the hotel was silent after that and even though I hated it, I didn't know what to say.

We got into the elevator and people kept staring at us awkwardly. Have they never seen a girl being carried by a guy before?

"Hayden, it's okay. You can drop me now." I said getting tired of the stares. I hate being the central of attention and I don't think these people would stop looking at us.

"No." He simply replied.

"Tha...wait what?! I said its okay here!" I whispered yelled.

"And I said I'm not gonna drop you."

"Why not?"

"If they want to stare, they are free to. I'm just carrying you. It's not like we are kissing or anything."

"I know but I don't like the way they are staring. Just put me down. You are tired aren't you?"

"I'd rest once I've safely dropped you in your room so endure the stares or maybe we should give them something to actually stare at." He said the last part flirtatiously.

"Stop flirting with me dimwit." I said and smacked his head.

"Babe, that hurts." He winced.

Babe...

We reached our floor before I could reply so he left the elevator and walked to the room. He put in the password and I have never felt happier to get back into this hotel room.

He placed me on my bed gently and stretched. "Oh God! I hope I can get up tomorrow. My back aches bad." He complained.

"Ple-lease. You're talking as if I'm that heavy. You'd have collapsed if I was heavy." I said.
