This is Love

Chapter 8

That next morning, I packed up Trevor and I's clothes. I only leave out what we will be wearing tomorrow morning, for the ride home. Trevor was taking a shower as I put everything into its place. We didn't have to be at the highschool until later tonight.

I hear the bathroom door open, but I keep my back turned away. I feel a pair of arms wrap around my waist pulling me back into a chest. "Hello." I say continuing to fold the clothes. Trevor leans down so his lips are pressed against my shoulder. I laugh. "You no I have to finish putting this stuff away." I tell him trying to wiggle out of his hold. He laughs. That's when I realise he isn't fully dry and is getting my bag slightly damp.

Now I really try to get out of his arms. "Trevor, you're getting my shirt wet, let go." Trevor shakes his head sending water splashing onto my face. "Ugh. Get dressed." I hear him grumble before letting go.
He steps beside me and grabs his clothes. I look over at him. His towel hangs low on his hips. My eyes scan across his chest which is covered in a series of tattoos. I follow the patterns down to his arms. I look back up towards his face. I notice that he is looking at me, I quickly look away, blushing. "You see something you like?" I hear him mumble.

I turn my back towards him. "I might." I joke back. I hear him laugh. "Yeah I think I do too." he says as he slaps my butt. I gasp, turning back and look at Trevor who has a big smirk on his face. "You are lucky that we have to go shopping, or you would be paying for that." I walk over and grab my purse.

Trevor walks over. "Why are we shopping again." I turn and look at him resting my hands on my hips. "Because, we can't just sit in this hotel room until six. We have to do something productive." I let out a giggle. He looks at me with a straight face as he says. "We could stay here and do something productive." He gives me a wink. I roll my eyes at him. "Come on, let's go."

He lets out a laugh walking with me out the door. I grab a hold of his hand, almost dragging him to walk faster. He laughs. "You're like a little kid wanting to go into a candy store." I look at him and narrow my eyes. "Well you walk like you have weight in your shoes." I snap back with a laugh. "Oh really." He gives me a smile. I nod my head. "Mhm."

"You're going to pay for that comment." He laughs out. "Mm okay sure." I roll my eyes. "Catch me if you can." I take off running outside towards the car. I can hear a pair of heavy footsteps following behind me.

I was almost at the car when I felt myself being lifted up by a pair of arms. I squeal with laughter. I feel Trevor playfulling biting my neck. "Stop, stop" I breathe out in between laughs. He sets me down on the ground but doesn't release me from his grip. "I will always catch you. Your mine." He said in a low voice. I roll my eyes.

I turn myself around and give him a soft kiss. I go to pull away but Trevor deepens the kiss. When he finally pulls away I'm left breathless. We stare into each others eyes before Trevor speaks up. "We should probably get shopping, don't you think." I nod my head at him still left speechless.

We get into the car, Trevor starts driving. "So where are we going to shop." he says, popping the 'p'. "We my dear, are going to the mall." I type in the address into the car. It starts the route.

When we pull into the parking lot, I grab my purse which is a simple black cross body bag. I turn back and look towards Trevor. "Are you ready?" He takes a deep breath. "Are we spending all day here." I nod my head giving him a smile. I rolled his eyes, giving a toothy grin.

We walk hand in hand towards the mall. The first couple of stores were the basic clothing store. We have been just looking, we haven't really bought anything. I look towards Victoria Secret. "Trevor I'm going to go in there." I point toward the store. He gives me a mixed look of shock and curiosity. "Uh I think I will just wait out here. I actually need a new watch so I will do that." I nod my head and we part ways.

I walk into the store and start looking around. I could see how Trevor would feel weird about coming into this store, there was not one guy in sight. Thinking about Trevor makes me think when has he ever worn a watch. It was a bit weird. I let the thought slip through my mind as I come across a bra and leggings set. It was a light blue color with a hint of sparkle embellished onto it. After I pick out a couple of bra and underwear sets I decide to checkout.

After paying for my things I walk out of the store. I don't see Trevor anywhere. I decided to walk to the food court since it was right next door. I order a side order of popcorn chicken and sit at a table closest to the opening to the mall. I scroll through my Instagram, I see people from my class posting throwbacks or posting pictures of them getting ready for tonight. I'm kind of excited to see everyone. To show everyone who I really am, and that highschool doesn't define who you are.

I bought a new outfit for the reunion tonight. It is a long red dress which is backless and cuts down a little low but not too low. It's sleeveless so it shows off my arms. It's tight towards all the way to just below the hips. I'm going to pair it with a pair of black heels that wrap around my ankles.

I feel someone's hand on my shoulder. I turn and look it's Trevor. I give him a smile as he sits down in front of me. "Did you find the right watch?" I ask him, eating a piece of chicken. He shakes his head grabbing a piece of chicken. "No, there wasn't one I liked." I let out a laugh. "You must have been really picky. You were in there a while." he laughs and shakes his head. "I like to make sure it's the right one." I mumble okay.

We finished eating the chicken. "Well we should probably go get ready for tonight." Trevor gives me a nod and we stand walking hand and hand out to the car.

When we arrive back at the hotel, I immediately jump into the shower. It was a quick one but refreshed me for tonight. I step out of the shower wrapping myself in a towel. I walk out of the bathroom, the steam following me out the door.

When I walk out I see Trevor standing there in an all black suit paired with a matching red tie. To be honest my breath is taken away. He looks good with his hair and it is pushed gently to the side. He has his regular jewelry which consists of his nose ring, his earrings and his silver chain. It matches his personality. "Ooh I like it." He eyes me up and down letting out a laugh. "Please tell me that is not what you are wearing." I laugh and roll my eyes. "No of course not, unlike some people perfection takes time." I narrow my eyes at him. He scrunches his nose at me. "Is that the case?" he asks me. "Yes it is."

I strut passed him grabbing my dress and walking back to the bathroom. "You're not getting ready out here?" he whines out. "Nope, it's a surprise." I hear him groan as I walk into the bathroom and shut the door.

After putting on my dress I start putting on my makeup. I go with a dark neutral look with a dark red lip. I decide that I will straighten my hair. It flows down to just above my hips. I part it slightly to the side. I put some hairspray to make sure it is slick back. I finish off my look by slipping on by heels.

I take one last look in the mirror before walking in the other room. Trevor has his back turned away from me. I clear my throat to get his attention. He turns around his mouth dropping open as he looks me up and down. He tries to say something but it gets caught in his throat. I let out a laugh before saying "See something you like?" I ask mimicking his tone from this morning. I give him a smirk. "Ugh April I don't know what to say. You look amazing. I can't wait to see everyone's faces when you walk in." he walked up to me grabbing me by my waist. He goes to lean down to kiss me and I put my finger up against his lips. I shake my head. "I can't risk messing up my makeup." I laugh out as he gives me a pout look. "Fine, but the second we are done and back here I will kiss you." He says prusaverience laced in his voice. I let a smirk crawl onto my lips "And I will hold you too that." He gives me an mechiveuse smile.

We walk out the door, my arm wrapped through his arm. He walks to the car door and opens it for me. "Thank you." He gives me a smile as I step inside. He closes the door walking over and getting in himself. "Are you ready?" I give him a smirk. "Hell yes. Let's go."

I was ready. I was so ready. I was going to show everyone who April Young really is.
