We’ve been driving for four hours and the sky is beginning to darken, the road becoming stretched and abandoned. I’m struggling to keep my eyes open in the backseat Nikki is leaning against Caleb, her mouth slightly parted as she sleeps soundly, in the drivers seat, Alex looks tired and has slowly ran out of conversation until he grows silent.
“Do you want me to drive?? There’s only two hours to go.” Caleb offers, looking fresher and wide awake than all of us. Alex grunts a response, pulling up onto the side of the road. He pauses for a moment, resting his head on the steering wheel.
“Come on amigo, out you get.” Caleb says quietly, sympathy flashing through his eyes, I smile sleepily at the friendship between the two and Alex nods at him, stepping out of the drivers seat. I expect him to sit beside Caleb in the passenger seat but instead he walks round the car and opens the door beside me. Even though he’s exhausted, his eyes held a cheeky glint as he looks at me.
“Can I join you??”
My cheeks begin to grow hot and I nod, shuffling up a little on the seat. Alex climbs in, shutting the door softly behind him: His leg is pressed against mine and even through the fabric of our clothes, I feel the heat burning my skin from the simple touch.
“Forgive me hermosa but I won’t be much company.” he yawns behind his hand, resting his head on the seat behind him. His lashes flutter until his eyes drifted shut as he struggles to fight sleep. Caleb starts the car and we’re off again mites of land our only view
“You’re great company even if you’re sleeping.” I re-assure him, unable to ignore his body pressed up against mine is alluring acent fills my personal space and I turn to look at him He’s smiling at me, eyes hooded over with steep. The faint lights from the car illuminate against his beautiful features and even at night, he’s simply breath taking.
Without saying another word, he holds out his arm, wrapping it around my shoulders. I instantly rested my head against his chest, my own eyes growing heavy with sleep. Alex’s arm tightens around me almost as if he isn’t taking any chances with letting me go. A smile flickers across my face as I feel myself drifting off.
“Dulces sueños,” Alex murmurs in my hair, his words causing a warm glow to ignite the inside of my body. [Sweet Dreams]
“Sweet dreams to you too,” I whisper in response.
I wake to the sound of loud cheers and whoops coming from a distance. When I open my eyes, it takes me a moment to realise where I am. I’m lying across Alex’s car seat in the back, my body aching in places from the uncomfortable position. I sit up straighter and frown, the rest of the car is empty.
“Alex?? Caleb?? Nikki??” I call out, pulling open the door. When I notice the view outside, I simply pause, too stunned to speak.
In front of me is a clearing in the woods surrounded by trees and nature. A few feet away is a stretch of a beautiful lake, disappearing into the distance. I can smell the crisp fresh air lingering everywhere around me. Down by the lake, all three of them are sat on chairs by the wooden dock, drinks in hand. The sun is beginning to rise, casting a beautiful iridescent glow over the water.
“Wow,” I breathe out, running a hand through my hair. I shrug my jacket off, knowing we’re in for a warm day… This place really is something else.
The sound of laughter comes from Alex and Caleb and I smile, leaning against the car as I watch him throw his head back. It’s nice to see him so carefree, full of his usual confident and charming personality
“Hey!” I shout over at them, smiling as they all turn around, Alex is the first to beam brightly at me, his smile causing my insides to melt.
“Ah! She finally wakes,” Caleb yells back and I chuckle under my breath, walking over to them. Nikki is sitting next to Caleb, her blonde hair tied upwards into a ponytail. She’s wearing denim shorts and a crop top with sunglasses firmly on her face. When I approach them, she throws me a can of lemonade which I catch one handed.
“Thanks,” I grin, taking a seat next to Alex. He whistles under his breath, shooting me a flirtatious smile.
“Nice catch, hermosa.”
“I’m good with my hands,” I shoot back, loud enough for only him to hear me. His eyebrows raise in surprise and I watch as his eyes turn a shade darker from his thoughts. He pushes himself up off his chair, standing dangerously close to the edge of the water without realising.
“Can we go put it to the test??” He murmurs, turning his back on Caleb and Nikki. His eyes drift down my body hungrily and I bite down on the inside of my cheek to stop myself from grinning. There’s nothing I can do about the blush covering my cheeks. My mouth dries out as I look up into his sparkling eyes, eyes that I so badly never want to look away from.
I slowly stand from my chair, placing my lemonade down onto the floor beside me. As I take a step towards Alex, he reaches out, placing one hand on my waist.
“Where are you two going??” Caleb asks us loudly. Alex ignores him, staring intensely into my eyes. A shiver runs down my back and I suck in a quick breath, remembering we aren’t alone. I can’t help my lips from tugging upwards into a smirk as I flip my hair over my shoulder.
“You shouldn’t ignore your friend Alex,” I tease him.
“He won’t lose any sleep over it.” Alex murmurs back in response, his eyes trained on my lips. It feels like he’s lost in a trance and I’m the reason for it. It caused my stomach to somersault several times from the thought.
“This is what my hands can do,” I giggle, placing my hands on Alex’s chest.
That’s when I push him into the lake and turn around, running for my life as Caleb and Nikki break down with laughter.
