Okay it's LiveLaughLovingEveryone2 with another Pal story. I wanted to do a continuation (sorta Like a fifth season) I might do the other Rooney storylines in other fanfics. Rated T-Future themes (I wasn't the happiest with this chapter-addressed that at the end) Enjoy!
Starts right after the campfire.
Parker's POV:
As everyone walks away from the campfire I continue to hold Val's hand. I look at her.
Me: It's going to be sad, I mean, there's so many things that I have to leave behind for a whole year
Val: I know, Can you believe that we get to travel to Bolivia It'll be so cool!
Me: I've never even been outside of America
Val: I went to Canada once
Me: Cool, where
Val: Just Québec it was for French club before I went to BOOMS
Me: I actually did some research on Bolivia and finally read that email
Val: I know isn't it cool we get a week to explore Bolivia as tourists
Me: Yeah, I do have to wonder if that's also the reason it was moved
Val: I'm fine if that's the case, I mean we get to train to be on Mars, Salar de Uyuni also sounds amazing
Me: I'm going to miss somethings while I'm there I mean how will I watch the new season of Linda and Heather
Val: I didn't even know you watch that show
Me: I need my drama fix
Val: I'm going to miss my family, I haven't been away from them for more that two weeks
Me: I haven't even been away from them for a week, I mean it's a bit scary
Val: I know
Me: How about we pull an all nighter doing all the things we won't be able to do in Bolivia while we're there
Val: What were you thinking first?
Me: The beach, I mean it's right behind us
Val: Sure, it's a nice night
We got up from the log and walked toward the beach. All the stars were out and it was rather romantic in a sense. Surprisingly no one was out. I've taken walks on the beach at night before there are usually some people partying or drinking, sometimes even getting it on. It was weirdly quiet tonight though. All you could hear was the ocean.
Val: It's beautiful out here, why don't I do this more?
Me: I know, I occasionally go out here, it's sorta calming and also right outside
Val: The sky is so clear I can see all the stars, I can believe that we're going to train to be astronauts, but it seems so much like a dream, I mean, Can you believe it?
We sat down on the sand and from the way Val was talking I could tell something was up.
Me: Val what's wrong
Val: I get to spend the trip with you
Me: Is that a bad thing to you!?
Val just started to blush at there was a long pause of silence.
Val: I like you, maybe, maybe more that that and, just, I don't know if I could of kept that to myself any longer that I did this doesn't make things super awkward, does it
Me: No I like you too
I leaned in to give Val a kiss it only lasted 4 seconds. After that I pulled away.
Me: Sorry it's just that I've been wanting to do that for what seems like forever now
Val: No I, kinda have no Idea what to say besides same
Val then leaned in and looked me in the eyes before closing them tilting her head right, leaning in more and wrapping her arms around my neck to kiss me. I ran my fingers through her thick brown hair. I became self conscious, wondering if I was drooling or if the fact I still had my eyes open was creepy. Like where do I put my hand. I wrapped my arm around her waist. After minutes she pulled away. I sat there in shock for a bit. I was just trying to process what just happened. I think I had a dumb grin on my face which I didn't even think I had control over.
Val: Before you say anything, I hope this doesn't make things awkward
I just sat there thinking of things to say. Wow, no. That was nice, where are you coming up worth these things. I sat in silence before a bit before deciding honestly might be best and saying.
Me: It doesn't, I think it makes it less awkward actually and for so long there was awkward pauses and silence and us not knowing what to say or acknowledging how we felt because of the fear that it would become awkward
Val: Whew I was worried to be honest
Me: I was too, but I wasn't going to admit that
Val: So what's next because we've been at the beach for
Val took her phone out of her pocket and looked at it.
Val: 37 Minutes and it's 11:49
Me: Well what's one thing you'll miss
Val: I know this sounds stupid, but fast food, every Saturday me and my oldest brother would go to a bunch of fast food places, particularly Greasy Al's
Me: Who doesn't love that place
Val: I know right it's defiantly a guilty pleasure
Me: I remember one time my dad would sneak food from there and bury dines in the yard
Val: Why?
Me: One time my mom put us all on this vegan diet, it included vegan meatballs
Val: I don't even know why those exist It literally has meat right in its name
Me: They went all the way down into the tunnels
Val: Tunnels?
Me: Long story
Val: At this point I couldn't care more about greasy fried chicken though, it's more of less the memories, I mean how are my brothers going to survive without me?
Me: Let me guess you do their homework
Val: Yeah how did you know?
Me: Maddie would occasionally ask me, especially on math
Val: History and science
Me: Still want to get greasy questionable "chicken" (Parker would be doing Air quotes btw)
Val: Course I do and what other places are even open
Me: Thai places
Val: Also breakfast places, other fast food places, and some other places
Me: Definitely know what places are open
Val: Have you ever been to a REAL high school party
Me: Three times one was in a junk yard and one was in this girls house, I think her name was Bev, that was back in Wisconsin though, my parents don't have much of a watchful eye over me and Joey though, one time Joey went to LA without my parents knowing, then my sister Maddie got in trouble at first he didn't though
Val: I have older brothers and skipped grades before BOOMS I've been to a few, okay a lot, some dudes were so desperate for chicks, I by no means would consider myself a party girl, but my two older brothers made me memorize the late night restaurant map
We laughed for a bit. It somehow became 2:04 though. So for a bit is an understatement. I feel like I know a bit more about Val. I don't even know her brothers names though. I have no idea how to describe this feeling. I wonder if Val's feeling the same though. I've know her for almost a year now. I liked her from the beginning though. It's nice knowing that I can have someone there I can actually talk to about almost anything. She's so beautiful too. How is this even possible.
We kind of just sat there in silence holding hands staring off into the ocean while the tide was coming in. We walked back inside and slept on the couch for 25 minutes until our alarms went off. My mom came down the stairs.
Mom: Aww I can't believe my baby is going to South America
Me: Yeah I can't believe it either *yawns*
Val: Oh hey miss Rooney
Mom: You can call me Karen if you want
Val: Okay Karen
Mom: Ready for a ride to the air port
Me&Val: Yeah
I went up stairs to grab my suitcase and carry on. Val already had her stuff downstairs. He grabbed out things and walked out to the car. We spent the late afternoon packing our things. Val's mom dropped her off to stay over here because she wouldn't be able to bring Val to the airport tomorrow, business trip. We put our things in the trunk and sat in the middle of the car. It's a mini van. We sat in the car tired, but excited. It's about an hour from the air port. The flights at 6:00.
After the hour car ride. Mom drove up to the entrance.
Mom: Sure you don't want me walk you in
Me: No I am sure
Val: Thanks Karen
Mom: No problem, going to miss you
We got out of the car and grabbed out things out of the trunk and into the airport. I can't believe we're really going to Bolivia.
Hope you enjoyed that chapter. It was a bit boring at had some run on sentences, but I wanted to establish some background on Val. A minimal amount at least. I kind of had no idea how to write Parker. From the show it's shown he acts a bit more mature around Val so I just went with that. I wasn't exactly the happiest with this though. I plan the next chapter to be more exciting though. (Also I'm definitely not the best at writing kiss scenes, but It is a event where you're definitely self conscious)
