Chapter 11

I could feel that this going to be easy from before the moment I got into the truck.

I was brushing Misty when it was time to go. Sam looked at me with worry in her eyes and I gave her a slight smile to reassure her. I told her that she could tell Jake, Jen, and DJ about what happened before they heard something they shouldn't.

I got into the truck and tried not to look at him. He looked tense and I couldn't help but wonder what he was thinking. I let us sit in silence but I really couldn't stand it for more than 10 minutes. I was grateful for the radio. One of my favorite songs came on and I started humming.

It's like a storm
That cuts a path
It breaks you will
It feels like that

You think you're lost
But you're not lost on your own
You're not alone

I will stand by you
I will help you through
When you've done all you can do
And you can't cope

I will dry your eyes
I will fight your fight
I will hold you tight
And I won't let go

Then I started to softly sing.

I hurts my heart
To see you cry
I know it's dark
This part of life

I got lost in the song.

Oh it finds us all
And we're too small
To stop the rain
Oh but when it rains

I will stand by you
I will help you through
When you've done all you can do
And you can't cope

I will dry your eyes
I will fight your fight
I will hold you tight
And I won't let you fall
Don't be afraid to fall

I'm right here to catch you
I won't let you down
It won't get you down
You're gonna make it
Yeah I know you can make it

Cause I will stand by you
I will help you through
When you've done all you can do
And you can't cope

Then I remembered Ross was in the car too. And I stopped singing.

And I will dry your eyes
And I will fight your fight
I will hold you tight
And I won't let go

Oh I'm gonna hold you
And I won't let go

Won't let you go
No I won't

Oh how I loved this song. Then Carrie Underwood came on. I loved her too, "Mama you taught me to do the right thing. And now you've got to let your baby fly." I hummed that part to but caught myself because I wasn't a very good singer.

I let us sit in silence the rest of the way to Darton with no noise besides the radio. I didn't think it was time to talk yet and I still needed to figure out what I was going to say. I couldn't help but stare at him. I stared at the side of his face, looking at his jaw and his lips. Oh his lips! I quickly reprimanded myself! I thought to myself 'Stop staring at him! He's got to feel your eyes all over him, I mean you were practically going to jump out of your seat and kiss him! He's too old for you and probably isn't interested in some jailbait minor!'

But I couldn't help myself. I awed at his arms, his big strong arms that held me last night. I couldn't deny how good it felt to have him hold me. It made me feel warm all over. I sighed and he looked over at me embarrassment in his eyes. We were both blushing. I looked away embarrassed that I let myself get caught looking, but it was worth it.

I hoped he wasn't mad about last night. I still wasn't going to ask him yet. I would wait until we were done getting the things on the list.

dont forget to review!...BTW the song used here is I won't let go by Rascal Flatts and the little line is from Mama's Song by Carrie Underwood. I truely love both of these songs and these artists so dont hate :D &R
