The Boy Next Door

sixty three

AMELIAS POV
Today was our last day. I was sad. We were going down to the beach and would probably leave around lunchtime. I smoothed things over with my mom so that's always good. I was downstairs making breakfast for Owen and I and then we were going to head down to the beach.
"Good morning," Liz said.
"Morning," I said. I grabbed two plates and brought breakfast back upstairs. I walked in and Owen rolled over.
"Ooh breakfast in bed, fancy," he said.
"I know," I chuckled and pecked his lips. We ate breakfast together and watched some mindless TV and then got ready for the beach. I got dressed and walked back into the room and Owen was shirtless. God he was hot.
"Hey," I smiled.
"Hey," he said.
"You're cute," I said and wrapped my arms around his neck and kissed me.
"So are you," he said as he held my waist.
"Are you ready for the beach?" I said.
"Yeah," he said and grabbed his phone and sunglasses. I did the same and walked downstairs and out to the beach with him. He wrapped his arms around me and kissed my cheek.
"I love you," he said.
"I love you too," I smiled.
"Hey I'm trying to actually get to the beach you two," Liz said and walked past us jokingly. I chuckled and took Owen's hand as we walked over to Derek and my mom at the beach. I laid my towel out and laid down next to Liz and Owen laid down next to next to me. I looked over at him and he was so cute. I ruffled his hair with my fingers and he smiled.

We were packing to leave this afternoon and I didn't want to leave. I didn't want to go back to school honestly, I had so much fun here.
"I don't want to leave," I chuckled and kissed Owen's cheek.
"Me too," He said.
"I don't want to go back to school," Owen chuckled.
"Well we still have like four days left," he said.
"Yeah," I said. I opened the closet and looked at my bag.
"I brought way too many clothes," I chuckled.
"Yeah that's why you needed extra hangers," He joked.
"Oh shut up," I said and nudged his arm. He smirked and pushed me back. I grabbed his arm and pulled him in for a kiss.
"I love you," I said.
"I love you too," he said softly and kissed me again. I finished packing the rest of my clothes and grabbed my bag. I scanned the rest of the room for anything we could have left and it looked good.
"Make sure you didn't leave anything in the bathroom," Owen said.
"Okay," I said and peaked in the bathroom and it was all neat.
"We're good," I said. I pulled my hair into a messy bun and walked down the stairs with Owen. We put our bags in the trunk and got in the car. Owen put his arm around me and I snuggled into him.
"Are you really going back to bed already?" Liz joked as she got into the car.
"Yes," I said softly.
OWENS POV
We were about 6 hours into the trip and Carolyn mentioned stopping at a hotel soon since we still had a lot to go. We were stopping at a rest stop for dinner and Amelia was still asleep.
"Is she still out?" Derek chuckled.
"Yeah," I chuckled, looking down at her nuzzled into my chest.
"Should I wake her?" I said.
"Yeah," her mom said.
"Hey," I said softly and ran my fingers through her hair. I kissed her forehead and rubbed her back.
"Mm," she mumbled.
"Hey were gonna grab dinner okay?" I said.
"Hm?" She said as she sat up.
"Dinner time," I chuckled, she brushed her hair out of her face and she was so sleepy.
"Okay," she said softly.
"Okay?" I chuckled.
"Mhm," she said and snuggled into my chest. I rubbed her back and kissed her forehead. Her mom parked the car at the rest stop.
"Owen I'm tired," Amelia complained.
"Amelia were coming right back," Carolyn chuckled.
"You can sleep after okay?" I said.
"Fine,"'she said. We both got up and walked inside. Amelia wrapped one arm around my waist and I put my arm around her shoulders.
"I love you," she said sleepily.
"I love you too," I said.
CAROLYNS POV
Amelia and Owen were cute. They really were. Owen was so gentle with her, and honestly I loved it. I loved him for her. I mean, during this trip there's been a few issues, but I really do love them together, they're perfect for one another. We were eating in n out burger and Amelia still looked so tired. I have no idea how that girl sleeps so much. Owen said something to her and she chuckled. It was so good to see her happy again, it really was. I'm glad we sort of made up. I mean it's always been hard for us to talk or bond, but I'm hoping we can fix it soon.
AMELIAS POV
We pulled up to the hotel room and Owen was asleep on my shoulder.
"Hey," I said quietly and nudged him, "it's time to wake up."
"Mm," he mumbled and nuzzled into me.
"Owen," I said softly and kissed his cheek. I saw him smile and he sat up.
"We're here," I said and kissed his lips.
"Okay," he said. I fixed his hair with my fingers and we got out.
"Someone was sleepy," I said.
"I still am," he said.
"Cutie," I said and kissed his cheek. We got upstairs and Derek opened the door and Owen and I practically ran to the bed.
"Tired much?" Liz chuckled.
"Very," I said and got comfortable.
"Good night," I chuckled and looked at Owen.
"Good night," he said and kissed me.
