Authors note: im back. I have to admit that I like how this story is turning out. In the beginning, it was a bit rocky, but now it has a nice flow to it. Review and enjoy :-).
Dave signed as he looked out the window. It's been a few hours since they've boarded the plane, and they were almost to Manitoba, to the next part of their new life. Although he was a bit nervous, he was very excited to see what they'll encounter outside Wawanakwa. If it wasn't obvious by now, Dave has never stepped out of Wawanakwa before. The reason for this was because he was afraid of change. Because of this, he's never been on a real vacation before. Not to mention that he was a huge germaphobic, which also contributed to his lack of traveling.
Dave smiled, it surprised him how much one incident could make him conquer his fears. Heck, most of the motels and gas stations they've visited were in poor condition, and he didn't really notice. He's also done stuff that he'd never would have done in a million years. He stood up to a gang for Pete's sake.
Dave felt a buzz in his pocket, which snapped him out of his thoughts. He checked it, and saw that he had received almost twenty texts. Most of them from his family, but he saw that one of them was from his best friend Shawn, asking him if he was ok. Dave gulped, he totally forgot about Shawn. He didn't know what happened between Dave and Sky.
Dave decided to send him a long text explaining about what happened that night, along with everything that happened throughout his and Samey's journey. A few seconds later, he received a response.
"Man bro, that sucks. I hope you find what your looking for as you do whatever your doing. Just promise me that you'll be careful and take caution. Don't want you to get bit by a zombie. Well, talk to you later." Dave smiled, Shawn always understood him. If anything, Shawn was the closest thing to family he had. His real family was never really there for him. For that, he decided to not respond to any of their texts. He was glad that he blocked Sky, the amount of texts he would've received would be tripled.
As Dave slipped his phone into his right pocket, he felt something push into his left arm. He turned his head and found that Samey was sleeping…on his arm. She fell asleep about an hour ago, it WAS pretty late when they got on the plane.
Dave saw that she was having a nightmare. To help her sleep, Dave decided to wrap his arm around her shoulders. Much to his surprise, she nuzzled against his chest and wrapped her arms around his stomach, looking much more comfortable as a smile formed on her face. To Dave, she looked so peaceful, so innocent, so perfect. He couldn't believe that someone like her had to deal with the amount of shit she did.
He smiled, he knew right then and there that he was going to protect her from harm, no matter the cost. He then realized something, as much as he wanted to deny it, he knew that he had a crush on Samey. He wanted to make her happy, to show her that everything's going to be alright.
He didn't know what he was going to do now. Should he tell her what he thought about her, or should he stay quiet? For now, that was a decision that'll have to wait. First, he must focus on getting them out of Canada. Everything else comes afterwards.
Dave yawned. It was going to take about another hour before they landed, so Dave decided to get some sleep...
Samey woke up, feeling a bit strange. At first, she was having a nightmare about her sister, then she winded up having the most wonderful dream about Dave. She wondered why her dream changed so rapidly. She found her answer when she looked up. She was snuggled up to Dave, her arms around his stomach and his left arm around her shoulders. Noticing the position they were in, she turned a crimson red. She wanted to pull away, yet she couldn't. It was like Dave put a spell on her. Despite her best efforts, her mind and body kept her where she was. She knew that she was probably bothering Dave, but for now, she wanted to enjoy the moment while she could. Who knew when she'd have another chance to get this close to him again. Samey smiled as she fell back to sleep, soaking the moment in as much as she can, before it could end.
Unknown to her, Dave was thinking the same thing she was. He wanted to enjoy this before they landed…
Authors note 2: originally this chapter was going to be about what they do once they got off the plane, but I've decided to add this fluffy moment instead. Don't worry, next chapter will be about what happens once they land.
