This is pure fluff and humor.
It was September 6th, to everyone else another day, but to me it was my girlfriend's birthday. She was so hyper all week. We were out at this Asian restaurant that she had been dying to go to.
"Princess, calm down. I got your whole day planned!" I swiftly said.
"Well then, what is going down today?" She asked; she looked like a 5 year old asking for ice cream.
"Since you are turning 21, I have decided we should go to Club Swan." I looked over at her. She dropped her fork. I heard the clatter of it hitting the plate. A smile a genuine smile came onto her face.
"Duncan, shut up! No way tickets in are like 200, all the celebs go there... oh crap! I promised my parents that we'll go visit them today, didn't I tell you?" My composure completely broke.
"What!? I have been saving up for the past 6 months! We'll go to your parent's place." I took a deep breath "Courtney, we go to Club Swan another time"
"Duncan, you are the best boyfriend ever!! I love you so much!" I started to smirk.
"I love you too, so do you want to take my car or yours?"I asked, she started to blush, she easily blushed.
"Can we take your car? I am out of gas!" She looked so scared, like I would say no. Why would I say no to her?
"Well, Princess. I think that we can. Now you eat that Kung Pau, before I attack it!" She giggled "Told you I was funny!"
"Duncan, I know that you are funny, I stopped denying it like 4 years ago, now every time I laugh you say that" I let out a fake gasp.
"How dare you insult me like that?" She cracked up! I took advantage of the moment and stole a couple of her Kung Pau Chicken.
"Hey! Those are mine!"She complained
I put my fingers on my lips and circled them "Yes they are!"
"You are such a nerd!"She said
"Lets get out of here, looks to me like you are stuffed and your mom might wonder where you are, because we need to be there soon. Right, what time do we have to be there?"I was curious maybe we can have a little fun before we go!
"We need to be there at 4 and it is 1. It takes 2 hours to get to Ottawa. We should get going."
"Fine" I turned to the waiter how was walking by "Can we get the check?"
"Here you go; I hope you have a good night." The waiter placed the check down along with two fortune cookies.
I placed a 50 down and two 20's. The guy smiled as I said "Keep the change" I got up and pulled out Princess' chair for her. I placed my hand on her hip we walked out of the restaurant. It was cold outside so I took my jacket off and gave it to her. She put it on and held it close as she snuggled up in it.
"How come when ever we go out people always stare?" She asked me.
"I don't know, maybe there is an undeniably gorgeous girl right in from of them."She blushed yet again.
"Duncan honestly it freaks me out a bit." We were halfway to the car walking in the parking lot. We stopped and looked at each other, shoulders square. I grabbed her chin and forced her to look me in the eyes "Courtney" She knew I only used her name to get a point through "You are dating an ex delinquent. I have a faux hawk, I have piercings. I look like an f-ing clown to them!"
She bit down on her lower lip. I released my grip, I continued to walk on. She stayed put and grabbed my hand. I stopped and turned to her. She was smirking, that only meant one thing. I walked toward her. She pulled me into a hug. As we parted she looked up. One finger traced the outline of my lips, "Those are mine, and right now I want them!" She exclaimed. Wow she has never been so straight forward. I pulled her into a kiss. I felt her lips brush by mine, I couldn't think of anything else but her.
A car honked, we were in the middle of the parking lot, about to kiss and the stupid car had to honk. I was furious "You look so funny when you are mad." she giggled. I guess my look was obvious.
"Let's just get to the car and go." We walked away toward the car. I pinned her down against the pick-up. "Now, if my memory serves me correctly, you said that you wanted a kiss! Am I right?"
"I said I wanted your lips. Maybe like a surgery...we can switch lips. It will be quick and painless." She smiled.
"Well, right now the most you can get is a kiss. So deal with it." I kissed her and when I saw kissed I mean it. That has got to be my best work yet. I ended it quickly. She got kind of angry, "What happened?"
"Well, we kissed. Wow I didn't think that it was that good to completely wipe your memory!" I said as I climbed into the car.
"Well," She mimicked as she got into the passenger side "It was pretty good, but why did it have to end?"
"Okay, it is your birthday." I leaned in for another memory wiping kiss. This time I even thought it was perfect.
"Duncan, we really have to go if we want to get there on time. So scurry on out of here!"
"Fine, we can sit here and make out!" I raised my eye brows one or two times. Well, more like eyebrow.
"Sorry Duncan. Maybe later." She smiled. That was too close.
"Well off to the Mr. and Mrs. Anderson." I exclaimed.
"Eh, I hate my last name I like yours better" She smiled.
"Princess, the only way that could be is if we get married, let's think... Courtney Wilson. It works" I smiled.
"Maybe I want to." She looked anxious.
"I don't know Courtney. I love you so much, sides if I asked you now it won't be a surprise. Now, would it?" I saw her blush.
"Okay," she smiled "Courtney Wilson, I like it!"
I turned the car on and drove off toward her parent's house.
We have been driving for at least an hour.
"Do you mind if I turn the radio on?" She asked like she always did.
"Sure" I answered as long as it isn't that one station, I couldn't tell her that, she was having her fun.
I heard a song some on...Techno. My eyes popped open, No it couldn't be THAT song, I hate it and all Courtney did was annoy me with it! I looked over at her she was smiling she knew what she was doing. It was Justin Timberlake Sexy Back.
"I'm bringing sexy back
Them other boys don't know how to act
I think you're special, what's behind your back?
So turn around and I'll pick up the slack." She sang on.
"I understand. You're too sexy. I'll deal with it! That's how I will act! Can I please change the song...please?"
"Sure, way to ruin my fun!" She spat at me.
"I'll deal with it!"I said as I turned the radio station. It was more upbeat, it was guitar. I smiled knowing she hated it, Snow (Hey Oh) by The Red Hot Chili Peppers!
"Hey oh listen what I say oh, I got your
Hey oh now listen what I say oh"
"Ahhhh, stop it! Maybe we should turn this off before we kill each other!" She offered
"That might be a good idea" I agreed "We can pull over and entertain our selves." I offered.
She shook her head, "Duncan we need to get there soon. So hurry. But don't speed."
"Stop it!" I yelled. "This is too confusing with your back seat driving and this so called open road. It's driving me insane. Your parents should be at least 5 minutes I don't even think that this GPS even works!" Courtney looks a little taken back. "Sorry, it has been a long day for the both of us. And I shouldn't yell at the birthday girl now should I?"
"No, you should yell at me ever! Duncan, this is just too much. Let's just get the hell out of here...what is that" She was pointing to the GPS, So I answered "The GPS"
"No not that, on the screen, "She started to tap the screen.
"Princess, that is the address we are going to, your parents house remember?" I said putting my free hand around her shoulder.
"That is NOT my parents' address! That is YOUR parents' address! We went the exact opposite way!"
"I know that, it is just that...that isn't my parents' address."I mumble.
"Then, where are we going?" She was yelling at me.
"I have no idea" I said as we pulled. I turned the car off and out my pointer finger and my thumb together at the bridge of my nose. "God, this SUCKS" I bang my fists into the steering wheel.
"Duncan?" I hear Courtney's faint whimper. I look over at her. "It's okay, I'll tell my parents that we'll reschedule, don't be so hard on yourself. You tried to make things better for me and sometimes things don't work out the way you plan them to." She was stressed over time.
"Princess? Thanks…for everything. With out you my life would have sucked. And then I would be in…" She cut me off the nerve of some people. Well she cut me off, not with words. I smirked under the kiss. She took me by surprise, and if wasn't fair so I evened the playing field and added a little tongue. I tasted her orange lip gloss and boy was that tasty. After a good four minuets we stopped and parted.
"Duncan, don't you think that we should stop that?" She answered.
"Hey, you lead me on!" I gave her my smile that she loved, not a smirk a smile.
"I know, but normal couples don't kiss any chance they get. Maybe one kiss every couple of days but not every moment. For once can we enjoy each others company and NOT make out?" She gave me a stern look.
"But, we aren't a normal couple! Look I love your company the kisses are just extra." I shrugged.
"Then you won't mind this, I won't kiss you for a week!" My heart stopped.
"A week?" I was in disbelief I regained my composure "So it is a challenge. I bet I can go longer than you can. Cause you dig me"
"Yeah I'll dig you…a grave. Cause that it what you'll be sleeping in!" I loved a challenge.
"Bring it on" I challenged back.
"I will, now let get out of here. I am tried of the place." I turned the keys and made the U- turn.
"Princess, it is like you don't know me at all." We laughed this road trip will be boring. I turned on the radio.
I'm bringing sexy back
Them other boys don't know how to act
"Oh, life isn't fair" I exclaimed as Courtney was dancing to her self.
