Rainy days

Chapter 5: Run Away Together?

I puffed a big cloud of smoke, as did Sam. Stealing a glimpse of his I studied how perfect he was, I don't believe in perfect but I suppose I just found all of his flaws perfect... His black hair was messy but it was his hair and I loved it and it smelt like... rainbows... Most of all I always noticed his very small tattoos and his piercings. On his lip he had a small black ring (on the right side), on his nose he had the same on his right nostril. Obviously my favorite tattoo was the little anchor but he had many other small tattoos like a simple tiny heart and an infinity sign, my second favorite was the one on his jawline, it said 'smile'. 

It has a long story behind it, a lot about his ex girlfriends. I feel bad for him, I want to comfort him so much but it's so hard. At the moment he's in charge of our gang, I'm the only girl but I'm one of the strongest so nobody minds me except Luke. Luke is Sams best friend, the thing is for some reason ever since I started dating Sam he turned on me, but it wasn't angrily it was sadly as if he was disappointed about it. Yes of course I've had the thought that he likes me or something but he doesn't, he isn't the same as me, he isn't into the whole punk/hipster thing, he likes petite girls with cute hair and eyes, in other words he's into tumblr girls. I just can't figure him out, I mean Sam was hard to figure out but he liked me so it was a little easier to get to know him. 

Interrupting my thoughts Sam sighed heavily putting his head down with his hands either side of it. Maybe it was time I spoke to him, properly.

"You know the only reason I didn't want you to come is because you have bigger priorities than me to deal with" I stared at the ground putting my cigarette out.

"I know it's hard, Sam, but you have to trust me" slowly he turned his head to me now I was looking at him, his face was understanding but I could always feel the lack of trust from him. He sighed again not turning away.

"Lets run away together" I felt my face lighten up as the words came out of his mouth, he smiled back at me, it was a tired smile but it was genuine. 

"Okay" I whispered to him and we both stood up and walked back into the house.

Lots of mixed emotions ran through me sitting in Sam's car, I don't sit in it very often but it's comfortable. Quietly the radio played in the back round, we'd stopped at a few houses mostly all the gang just to say goodbye and stuff. Luke wasn't in and he hadn't been there for days, nobody knew where he was but none of us were to concerned. He has been in the gang for the longest, as well as Sam and Evan and he knew how to look after himself.

We pulled up at Evans house, the last one. 

"We leave Evan in charge?" Sam's voice was serious but it was calm. I thought about all the things Sam was about to give up for me, the gang, school, everything. What if something happened whilst we were out there? What if we broke up and he left me?

"Princess?" He tilted his head to look at me and smiled as I looked up, Evan... Leader, yeah.

"It isn't up too me" He grinned at me but it was one of those grins he pulled when he wanted to say 'what are you on about?' What was he on about?

"What?!" I wined as he started to laugh at me, his laugh was contagious and loud but it was cute and I loved it.

"You think" he pointed at himself poking his chest hard "Am the only" he quoted with his fingers "'leader' here, don't you?" he breathed a little calming his laugh down. 

"You are..." my face questioned him and he just laughed again, what the actual hell?

"Miley, you idiot, your joint 'leader' you make all the decisions, you take control, everyone listens to you and your one of the strongest out of all sixteen of us" was I?

"I am?" he shook his head at the ground and face palmed himself, maybe I was being naive?

"Yes dingbat" he nudged my shoulder and I pouted at him, I hated it when I was wrong or hadn't seen something that he had. "Come on" he motioned his hand as he opened his door, I turned to open the door, almost hitting Sam in the face as he'd ran around the car to open it for me. I laughed out loud as did Sam.

"Sam-" *laughter* "Sorry-" *laughter* "I didn't realize-" *laughter* "sorry" I held my stomach laughing as did Sam. 

"I'm gonna get you for that" I ran away from him, he shut my door and followed me. I ran up to Evans door knocking on it mentally, he was the oldest, 19, so he lived alone but his house was massive because he made a lot of money from YouTube and Vine. Sam came up behind me as I continued hitting on the door.

"NOOO!!!" I screamed as Sam grabbed me by my waist tickling me "AHHHHHH-" I couldn't breathe, I was so ticklish I hated being tickled and Sam knew it. "Get-" I struggled away but he wouldn't stop "OFFF" I couldn't do anything and soon I was on the floor, crying and laughing at the same time. Thank god Evan opened the door.

"Hey..." He raised his eyebrow as Sam stopped tickling me and my head fell to his feet.

"You okay Mil?" He smiled at me on the ground I looked up to him upside down, awkward. Evan was tall and fit, he was very attractive but he never really seemed interested in love or romance. He had long brown hair and his eyes, god his eyes were so blue like the colour of the sky on a really nice day. If his hair got any longer he would be able to tie it up. 

"Yea I'm cool now" I pointed at Sam "I would have been okay the whole time if it wasn't for him." He looked up at Sam and smiled flicking his head up, as did Sam, that was their way of saying hi. "Have you- you know- yet?" He must be talking about the girlfriend thing.

"Yup we're official" He looked down at me and gave me his hand to help me up, I got up and straightened myself up again and then pushed him by his shoulder frowning.

"Yeah and if you ever do that again we won't be" Evan put his fist over his mouth and leaned back 

"Ohhhh" he added a little laugh to it and I gave him a death stare, Evan must must be one of the least immature ones in the group and he just totally destroyed that.

We walked back outside, Sam and Evan bro hugged and then turned to me, I hugged him for one of the first times and walked back to the car holding Sams hand our matching tattoos linked together. I sat down and waved before speeding of down the dark street knowing it would be a while before we'd be back in this City.
