i could feel ellie's head getting heavier and heavier against my shoulder as she drifted into sleep and sunk deeper into my arms.

i lowered the volume on the cartoons but decided not to turn them off completely even though she was asleep, and i only put them on for her sake.
people were loud on the bus so i hoped the sound from the cartoons would act as white noise blocking out the loud laughs from people around us that could potentially wake her.

i spent the next few hours trying to stay as still as possible, running my hands through her soft hair.
ellie's warm body and quiet breathing was like having a kitten sleep in your lap. nothing in the world mattered more than her undisturbed sleep and the thought of waking her up or accidentally making her shift away from me felt like the end of the world.

the tour bus eventually stopped at a gas station and we were told we had a 15 minutes to do whatever we wanted before getting back on the road so we could make it to the next venue before night.
ellie had put my hoodie on and closed the hood so tight around her face that only her hair was poking out,

-elle? ellie? i laughed to myself at her tired expression as she yawned and sat up straight, taking the hood down and looking around to see what was going on. her unruly hair covered her face and i brushed it away before simply saying "bathroom stop" and turning around so she could climb on my back and i could carry her off the bus.

something about her when she was sleepy was so beautiful, her body so warm and relaxed. the feeling of her soft face and drowsy yawns as she nuzzled her face in the crook of my neck, trusting me completely in protecting her. i couldn't remember anyone except maybe payton or my closest friends trusting me to be that vulnerable around, i liked the feeling.

-you have reached your destination, i said and she jumped off my back and immediately started rummaging the gas station for the snacks we didn't have time to buy earlier.

i turn around for not even a minute and when i look back i see ellie coming toppling back with a tower of oreos in her arms and a wide grin on her face.

-jesus ch- why so many? i ask while laughing and take a photo of her barely managing to balance them all.
-incase we miss our chance to get snacks again at some point! she says and the playful glimmer in her eyes makes me question her ulterior motive.
-you'd like that huh? i say back with a teasing smirk and dodge her attempt at smacking me in the shoulder. hey! i'm just kidding, i exclaim while laughing. she rolls her eyes and brushes past me as she goes to grab more snacks and behind my back i hear her playfully say "wish you weren't" and i've never wanted to be back in a hotel room with her more in my life.
-you're gonna regret that later, i said and pinched her in the waist.
-make me. was she TRYING to give me a full hard on in public??
