"Really? Hm, that makes one of us." She says with a smile.
She started up the car and pulled out onto the road.
"So what places have you been? States, countries, big cities, landmarks?" She asks, trying to strike up a conversation
He thought for a moment. "Well I was born and raised in Oklahoma. Making me an Okie." He laughed. "But my Mama is Latino so we went to Mexico for a few years." He stated.
"Really!? Wow! I've never been to Mexico before. I had the chance, but i didn't feel like It." She shrugged. "So is that all?" She asks turning a corner.
"I've gone to Italy." He nodded again. "What about you?"
"Italy!? Oh wow! That's crazy!" She says with wide eyes. "I've gone to Africa before. Oh and Canada. Hawaii….oh i really want to go to France. Gosh. Anyway, why we're you in Italy?"
"Family trip. My dad said we had to because of something in the family heritage." He smiled at her enthusiasm. "And France you say?"
"Its quite romantic. I love it" she says humming to herself now. "I've always loved the idea. My brother said to me once " don't let anyone propose to you, unless its in France."" She says with a little laugh. She missed him
"Propose?" He smirked. "A bit early for that isn't it?" He teased.
She turned to him with wide eyes “wh-what!? I wasn’t meaning now or anything! That- agh whatever” she says turning back Around with a red face, speeding the car up a bit
"Woah slow down there. That's how I got into an accident." He said putting a hand on her shoulder. "I'm sorry i shouldn't have said that."
She let out a laugh “it’s fine, it just caught me off guard. And hey, I know how to drive a car, unlike you” she elbows him in the arm
"If I recall, I know how to drive, but being stressed got me into an accident." He pointed out. "And that was my first accident ever."
“Mmhm” She says playfully, leaning over and kissing his cheek before ruffling his soft hair. “Why were you so stressed anyway!” She made her eyes go back to the road rather than on Brett. Though she could look at him all day. He was so gorgeous…her at least. To others he might be really handsome, but she thought he was beautifully georgeous.
He took a deep breath and traced the arm rest. "I was worried about you…" His voice wasn't at it's normal pitch, he even threw himself off. He cleared his throat and looked at her while she drove. "You seemed mad- or upset with me. And you wouldn't let me drive you, so I was stressing over what I did wrong…" He mumbled looking away from her again.
She stopped the car at a stop light and turned to him “wait…me?” She asks worried.
Now she was really glad that she had paid for all of his medical bills.
Him getting hurt was all her fault…. because she was being petty and the normal brat she was. It was her fault that he had gotten in that wreck.
"I was worried I upset you- and I felt bad. I got distracted and boom- ran right into the other car." He said looking at her. "It isn't your fault- I should've been paying attention." He said seeing her expression.
She hit the gas and started driving to the park. "I…i saw you and that one chick. The one that kissed you. I guess I got a little jealous. I'm sorry"
He looked at her and his jaw dropped. "Izzy! If it bothered you you could have asked me about it!" He said half amused and half disappointed. "You can talk to me about anything- really Izz. I barely even know the chic- she just started running her lips on mine before I could even say no."
She didn't even like thinking about her lips on his. It gave her shivers imagining it.
She squeezed her eyes shut for a second before opening them again.
"It….its fine. I'm sorry"
"Izz, I know it isn't fine with you. And what are you even sorry about? You didn't do anything." He said softly reaching over and petting her cheek.
He hated seeing her like this.
Upset, and seemingly disappointed.
"Well, I mean…i got jealous and petty, getting you worried and so that's why you crashed. Because of me" she finally says gripping the steering wheel as her heart churned inside of her chest
"Oh honey…" He said softly laying his head on her shoulder. "That's what was bothering you- It wasn't your fault. I really should've been paying better attention." He said slipping his hand in hers while she drove.
She took.her hand off of the steering wheel and held his, driving with one hand. She didn't say anything though. She was too lost in thought.
He gently pet her hand and shut his eyes. His head still rested on her shoulder.
"You know… if you're up for it, I'd love to hear this amazing voice of yours." He smiled eyes still shut.
"You will at the carnival tonight" she says with a little smile.
He pouted opening his eyes. "But can't I get a sneak peek?"
"Nope" she smiled. "It's a surprise" she says with a mischievous look. She reached towards the radio and turned it on. "Here let's listen to better music"
"Oh come on- I bet you sound wonderful." He said sitting up. "But I wouldn't know- now would I?" He said with a jokingly bitter tone.
"Well I'm sorry babe." She kissed his cheek, humming along to the music, tapping her finger on the steering wheel to the beat
He had a soft pink glow on his cheeks listening to her hum. He enjoyed it, finding it soothing. "You're really pretty." He said starring at her in awe.
