RPOV:
We've been driving for 5 hrs now and we don't even have the faintest idea where we are going. WE started heading in the direction of Seattle, Washington 'cause that's where Liss and I stayed when we were on the run.
"Hey, Adrian, you want me to drive now?" I asked Adrian, who looked like he was about to fall asleep on the wheel.
"Let you drive? As if!" he replied.
"Fine then let Sparky over here drive," I offered. At least it would keep him from making out with Lissa any longer so that I could finally talk to her.
"Anything for you lil' dhamphir," he winked at me but I just rolled my eyes.
"Hey!" Christian yelled, "Why do I have to drive?"
"Cause Adrian looks like he's about to fall asleep and believe it or not I don't want to get in a car crash!" I shouted right back at him.
Adrian pulled over and sat in the passenger seat, while I switched with Christian and sat next to Lissa.
"Oh, Rose, how do you do it?" Liss asked me.
"Do what?" I said.
"Always get what you want," she replied.
"OooHhh, I do it with my magic touch," I teased.
"Hey, don't be mean to me! Oh, and does your magic touch always help you look good?" she asked.
"I don't look nearly as good as you," I said, and it was true. I only put my outfit on for practical purposes. The dress was comfy and if we encountered Strigoi I could easily fight back then if I was in jeans. Same goes with the flats. The scarf was to keep me warm and to keep my neck out of immediate danger. The clips were to keep my hair out of my face and the jewelry was just cuz. I mean, hey, I might kill undead vampires but I'm still just a girl, right? I could fell through the bond that she disagreed with me though. She wasn't jealous exactly, but more appreciative of a look she would never have. I almost laughed at that though seeing as all the times I feel shabby next to her.
"That is soo not true and you know it," she said back. She was wrong, though, at least I thought so. She looked great in her gray and purple striped sweater from Wet Seal, the styled-to-look-worn skinny jeans, her knee-high black boots, and the black beret with the gray bow. Her jewelry all went great, too. She was wearing a ring that said Love, which was a gift from Christian, an adorable necklace from me, and a Kate Spade bracelet. Her purple tinted sunglasses completed the look.
"Whatever. Anyways, we should probably pull over for the night and stay at a hotel. We don't want to stay out to late cuz of the risk of Strigoi. And then while were there we can figure out where we're going and call for a feeder," I told her.
"Oh, yeah, good idea. Hey Adrian, hand me the map…Adrian…ADRIAN!" Liss yelled at him. He jerked his head up and his eyes flew open.
"Huh, What?, Wait, What?" he said, bewildered.
I just laughed and said, "Did you seriously fall asleep? See, Fire Boy, I told you we shouldn't have let him drive."
"He probably just fell asleep from your boring clothes conversation," he snapped back.
"Whatever just hand me the map," I replied, annoyed now. I threw in an eye roll for empathis.
He handed us the map and Liss and I looked at it. Eventually we decided on a hotel in Port Angeles. We told Christian the directions and to wake us up once it got dark out. Then, eventually we let our sleep get the better of us.
