Saved By Her (GxG)✅

14

Rachel just boarded her 2 hour flight back home. Back to me. She insisted on taking a cab as it's 8pm right now but I'm not letting my girl drive in a cab with a strange man this late. So I'm surprising her by picking her up.

I decided to spoil her a little and get her roses and some of her favourite snacks. Chocolates and McDonald's.

I walked out of the store, chocolate in hand when I realized that it's a half hour drive to the airport on a good day with no traffic and that the traffic is hectic today so I best be off.

I climbed in and started blasting my love folder. Fitting since I'm seeing my love soon. Soon Trevor Daniel's voice was blasting 'falling'. I sang along and started the dreaded drive to the airport. 1 hour and I see my baby.

———

I'm standing by the terminal waiting for her to exit. I have roses in one hand and chocolates in the other. Her plane landed about 10 minutes ago so she should be walking in any second.

And right on cue I see my baby. She spots me after a few seconds and her face lights up and she comes to me.

"There's my baby. Hi my love."

"Hey baby. Why are you here? I said I'd take a cab."

I don't answer her but instead, I leave my head in her neck until she pulls back and looks at me.

"These, my love, are for you."

I hand her the roses and chocolate and we start our walk to the car hand in hand.

"How are you feeling baby?"

"I'm doing okay thanks. I barely spoke to the woman so it's fine."

"Do you want to talk about it my love?"

"At home?"

"Okay. Who's place are we going? Yours or mine?"

"Mine. I love you and all but you don't have decent furniture yet. Plus I don't wanna bump into Allison."

"Touchè. Okay your place it is. But we're making one stop."

"Okay baby. And for the record home isn't a house. It's with you."

I felt my heart melt and I looked back at her.

"Back for barely 20 minutes and already my heart is melting."

"Hmm good."

I held her hand the whole drive to McDonald's, rubbing my thumb back and forth. Music from the love folder filled our ears and life felt good for the first time in a long time.

Pretty soon we pulled into the McDonald's drive through and I had to turn down the volume down, Ali Gatie's voice dying down and the song fading away.

I ordered our food and collected our food and turned the volume back up.

"This is a nice song babe. What's the name?"

"Ali Gatie Running on my mind."

"Hmm you're always on my mind you know."

I looked at her and smirked.

"I know."

I put my hand ontop of hers and she brought it up to her lips, gently kissing each knuckle.

"I love you Freya."

"And I love you baby."

I drove us home and helped her with her things in.

"Let's eat on the couch yeah?"

She nodded so I took our food to the couch ready to eat.

"TV? Or no?"
