The Rose
A/N I was on hiatus for a while, but I'm trying to start up a schedule for updating, so I might get better. Anyways, here's chapter four.
…..
The Griffins had been walking for fifteen minutes when Chris began to complain.
"Mom! I'm tired!" he whined.
"Yeah Lois! Can't we just hitchhike? Or leave Stewie at home?" Peter asked.
"You're the one who got us into all of this!" Lois shouted, enraged.
"Anyway it's just three miles," Brian offered.
"That's a long way for me Brian. I'm… sort of… roly-poly," Peter muttered the last word.
"Wow. I never would've guessed." Brian said sarcastically.
"How about we sing some travel songs?" Meg offered. She was walking slightly behind the rest of the Griffins.
"That's a great idea! How about you start, Peter," Lois exclaimed.
"It's a long way to wherever we're going, It's a long, long way to go." Peter sang.
"It's a long way to Stewie! It's a long, long way to go!" the rest o the Griffins sang, annoying Peter's verse. He frowned and crossed his arms.
They soon reached another sign. "Hartford. One mile." Lois read.
The whole Griffin family began cheering and high-fiving. "Let's get going!" Lois shouted. Chris started running, but then he fell over and Lois had to carry him for a quarter of a mile.
They reached Hartford at dawn and rented a motel room. As the family slept, Brian sat up. He wasn't even sure if he should tell Stewie how he felt. What would he say? How would the family react? These thoughts swarmed through his head. A few hours Meg woke up and saw Brian.
"Bri? What are you doing up?" The name almost stung. That was what Stewie called him. He had always hated it… until it was someone other than Stewie saying it.
"You know, thinking," Brian hastily responded.
"About what?" Meg asked.
"About Stewie," Brian said. "I wonder how he's doing."
"Do you love him?"
"WHAT?"
…..
Ok. That was short… and cliff-hanger-ish. I am so evil.
