Chapter 2: Out Driving

(3rd person POV, in the future)

He drummed his thumbs on the steering wheel and bobbed his head along to whatever song was playing in his head. He didn't mind waiting for her to finish getting ready, because he was having her all to himself for the entire week.

They had survived their first semester apart. Attending separate universities was tough, but they made it work. Many late night phone calls and many weekend trips. The gang got back together during the winter break and it was great to hang out again, but Finn wanted some extra time to just himself and his girl.

So what do you do when you have a car, a super rad dad, and consent from Rae's mum?

Rent a cottage for two, naturally.

Only for one week though. But still. One week all to themselves!

Rae closed the house door behind her and stood there for a moment, smiling at Finn. He gave her that knee-buckling lopsided smile of his but then quickly looked away, getting embarrassed too easily. Getting up, he took Rae's two bags and swung them into the trunk on top of his. They got into the car and Rae sighed contently.

"So," she started, "where exactly are you taking me?" Finn told her they were going on a vacation for two, but he not-so-accidentally forgot to tell her where.

"Oh, I know a place." That fucking lopsided smile again. Rae just shook her head and chuckled a bit.

"Alright, well if I never come back then Mum'll know who to hunt down."

Finn rolled his eyes and gave her a peck on the cheek and then started the engine. It had been snowing earlier that day, and there were still flurries now and then. All the windows in the neighborhood were lined with candles on their sills, and the whole world seemed to be calm and content.

Neither of them said a thing during the hour-or-so-long drive, but many genuine smiles were exchanged.

Finally Finn turned down onto a dirt road and Rae arched her eyebrow and protested, "Seriously, where the hell are we?" Finn just kept on driving.

By the side of a frozen lake in the middle of the country rested an old cottage. It had been standing for so long that it had even curved a bit with the landscape and sloped on the side that led down to the water. It had a hay roof, and the landlord had left the foyer light on, emitting a soft glow from the front door's window.

"Oh, Finn," Rae said, breathless.

He took her hand, rolled up her sleeve a bit, and wrote" M-E-R-R-Y C-H-R-I-S-T-M-A-S."

The snow fell soft and quiet.
