Chapter 18
Gabby's Pov
A bit of light shined on my face. I scrunched up my face and pulled the blanket over my head. I felt someone shift next to me.
"Morning," Andy grumbled.
"Morning," I replied. I felt two cold hands wrap around my midsection. I shrieked.
"Stop! Please your hands are so cold," I cried.
"So? You're nice and warm."
"Please," I whined.
"Okay," he took his hands off me. "My mom and step dad are working till about five so we have the whole day to ourselves."
"Okay. The weather seems to be nice so maybe go for a walk?" I suggested, getting up.
"There's trails in the woods that we can hike if you want."
"Sure." I changed into shorts and a comfortable t-shirt.
Andy and I walked down into the kitchen and he made us some eggs. After cleaning up, Andy and I walked out to the woods. A bit of breeze swept over us. Spring air.
As we walked, birds chirped, the small stream made a slight sound and the breeze blew. It was peaceful.

Later that evening, Andy and I decided we'd make his parents dinner before we left. Pesto and chicken. One of my favorite things to make. Andy told me that they would like it.
When everything was made, we carefully and nicely put the food on the plates as his mother and step father walked in. Martha was amazed by my cooking. I was happy that she liked it.
A little bit after supper, I started to put the bit of stuff that I had with me, in my bag. Andy was bringing me back to my house later tonight so I could be a bit comfier than at Parker's.
As I packed, my phone vibrated in my back pocket. Surprisingly it was my father. He doesn't normally text me. Ever. Well apparently he did want to this time. It was just a check up text. Not that it mattered. When I finished, I brought my bag to the living room and set it next to the couch.
"I'm going to miss you, Gabby," Martha said hugging me.
I smiled, "I'll miss you too."
"Well we should get going. Long drive," Andy said.
"Yeah."
Martha waved goodbye to us as we pulled out of the driveway. The lights on the highway flickered on as the sky got darker. Sure enough, I was feeling drowsy so I put my head against the window. Andy placed his hand on my thigh. I let my eyes close.
I awoke to the sound of the car door closing. Andy came around to my side as I sat up. He, like the gentleman he is, opened my door for me. We walked into my house, and I walked into the bathroom. Looking in the mirror, I sighed. I was worn out. I haven't done anything to wear me out but just the past two days just have.
I walked up to my room, still in my regular clothes, I crawled into bed. I laid in the dark, as I felt Andy lay next to me. I moved close to him. Taking a deep breath, I took in his scent. It sounds a bit strange but he just smelt good. I let sleep take over as one of his arms snaked around my waist.

Sorry about the long wait, my phone broke and I couldn't update.
