lie to me [tatemcrae x dixie d'amelio]

tate's pov

thankfully i feel so much better today, yesterday was a write off i didn't even get to say one word to the d'amelio sisters. my parents sent me straight to bed and booked me a few days off to sort myself out.

i walk downstairs, dressed in the same t shirt and shorts i slept in. "there she is" tucker shouts as i enter the kitchen. it looks like everyone has been up for ages.

i walk over to charlie and dixie who are both smiling at me, "i'm so sorry about yesterday" i tell them and they shake their heads.

"don't worry about it, were happy to be here and look its snowing" charlie says excitedly, pointing out of the window and running over there. well fuck it is, and heavy too. we better not get fucking snowed in.

i look back at the older sister who has been very quiet. "are you ok?" i ask, as she turns her attention to me and nods her head putting on a fake smile.

"no your not dixie" i say, she is too obvious. i look over at tucker and her boyfriend who isn't paying any attention to her at all.

"can we go for a drive?, charlie is seeing her boyfriend and i need to get away from him" she asks with a sigh. i nod.

"of course, let me eat something and then i will go and get ready" i tell her. she sends me a warm smile and rubs my shoulder before thanking me.

i grab some food off my mom and eat it quickly, she looks at me with happiness.

after breakfast i quickly run upstairs and pick some clothes out, i think i'm actually going to make an effort today.

"instead of just staring at her instagram photo why don't you go upstairs and stare at her in person dude" charlie says, interrupting me. i punch her in the arm and shake my head.

"look at that smile, you like tate don't you" she asks, bugging me. i bite my lip trying to stop myself from smiling but i cant. she makes me happy as fuck and if i am completely honest yeah i guess i like her.

when i see her everyone else disappears, i forget that i'm in a relationship as soon as her face appears. i want to be with her all the time whereas with griffin i don't.

and i never usually get nervous or quiet but with tate, butterflies explode round my stomach.

i head back downstairs singing to myself, swirling my car key around my index finger. i'm in such a good mood today and i don't even know why.

i grab two bottles of water and a bunch of snacks out of the kitchen, shoving them in my bag for the ride.

dixie appears in the room, shaking her head and punching her sister in the arm. she lays her eyes on me and automatically has an uncontrollable smile on her face.

"what are you smiling at?" i say with a grin, raising my eyebrows as charlie has a huge smirk on her face.

"i don't even know, come on lets go" she says, shaking her head snapping herself out of it.

i nod and lead the way out of the house, dixie following behind. i rush to my car and turn on the heater, as it is completely iced up. she switches on the radio and changes the stations until she finds a good one.

"you didn't say bye to griff" i say, raising my eyebrows waiting for the windows to clear up.

"fuck him" she says with a grin. wow i like this dixie.

i look around the streets noticing the snow already getting really thick. this is not a great idea at all but oh well.

"ok lets go, if i crash i blame you" i say with a laugh. she reaches over and pats my leg. "you got this".

i smile and start driving.

an hour later

we have been in the car for a while and we are no longer near calgary. i'm struggling a lot to drive right now as the snow is just getting heavier and heavier and thicker.

a man pulls me up, waving his hands at me. "what the hell does he want" dixie asks, leaning forward in her as i pull into a side road.

"you need to pull up or get home, we are closing the roads. the snow is going to get really thick and i don't think people will be able to leave there houses" he explains, i look at his legs seeing the snow just below his knee.

fuck.

"we wont make it back to my house, but luckily we own a little flat thing like 2 minutes away from here" i say to dixie and she nods.

i thank the guy and go as quick and as safe as i can too the house.

i pull up on the drive and climb out, the snow soaking my pants, i'm pretty tall and it's nearly at my knee too.

dixie holds onto my hand as i kick the snow away from the door as best as possible so i can open it.

as soon as i enter the freezing house i put the heaters on trying my best to warm it up. i head into one of the bedrooms finding some old sweatpants i left here. i give some to dixie who thanks me and changes them.

"well this isn't how i expected that to turn out" i say with a laugh as i text my mom letting her know whats happening.

"i mean let's make the most of it, were stuck in a house lets have fun" dixie says with a big smile. she walks up to me seeing me give her no response, until she is right in front of me.

she grabs hold of the collar of my jacket, tugging it a little and looking into my eyes.

"this sucks, i wish i was stuck with charlie" i joke.

"i hate you" she says with a warm smile, her eyes slowly gazing down to my lips. now this is weird.

"come on mcrae, lets have fun" she says kissing my cheek and running off jumping onto the couch.
