(Y/N) and barley had been playing quests of yore for hours, they had gone through forests and deserts, mountains and oceans but they had also gone through all the snacks which where earlier prepared. Seeming as it had been a while since they last ate, Barley had a bright idea which was sure to not end in absolute disaster.

"If mi'lady is hungry may I suggest we make some treats of our own?"

"Barley last time we cooked, what came out the oven looked like it was poison. It was bubbling and honestly it could have been soup."

"Then how about we journey to the outskirts of town and retrieve the legendary sustenance that will be sure to fuel our desire for dangerous adventure!"

"If you mean grabbing some chips from the fantasy market in town the yes I would be delighted to."

Barley hopped off his chair, ran to the kitchen and scooped his keys off the counter. Hurrying back with a silly smile on his face he puts one arm behind his back, the other out for her to hold.

"Then your chariot awaits"

A blush springs to her face adorned with a racing heart and soft smile. Taking his hand in hers, they rush to Guinevere the second and jump in putting on their seatbelts preparing for an adventure, Because a trip to the shop with barley would mean an adventure.

As Guinevere the second drove long the road Barley and (Y/N) shared conversation and interesting topics. Soon enough, the chatter died down and the music took over. After a while Barley took out the music tape and replaced it with another one.

"Got something interesting to play?"

"Oho yes! Your going to love this one!"

Turning the volume up, Barley started to passionately drum the beat of the song on the steering wheel. Amused, (Y/N) undid her seatbelt and went to the back of the van trying to keep her balance along the way. Eventually however Barleys amazing driving skilles caused her to lose her grip on the roof and fall diagonally onto the beanbag that was settled in the corner.

" (Y/N)! You ok?"

She held her head as she sat up. Noticing the seats along the edges, she reached up and grabbed onto it. Lifting it up, noticing exactly what she was looking for.

"AHA!"

"What, what are you ok?"

"Oh yeah I'm fine"

A silent sigh escaped his lips as the worry he felt slowly left. Recovering from her fall (Y/N) went back to her seat carefully this time. She turned her chair to face Barley directly, as she settled the bass guitar on her lap.

"Are you going to play for me?"

"With this music? You bet."

Harshly strumming the chords to the beat made a big and bright smile appear on Barleys face.

"Yeah! HaHa! That's awesome!"

Epic music swarmed the car as their journey to the fantasy market continued. After the song had ended (Y/N) was left  breathless from the amount of passion that was put into that song. She chuckled at the sight of Barley as he had his signature goofy smile on however still facing the road. Placing the guitar behind her seat, the road continued.

"You know I dont think I have ever heard anyone play as well as you do"

"You think?"

"I know"
