"Wake up sleepy head, we need to leave"
"Why are you up so early?"
"Because I am not you" Elliot flicks her forehead pulling the blanket away
"Of course you are not me because you are not the one who stood for hours yesterday night"
"I was waiting for you! Waiting is tiring too"
"What about my waiting when you were spending hours on writing?"
"Stop with the morning bickering. Evelyn I need a coffee" Rowan barges into the room catching the attention of the duo
"You make it yourself"
"Why so feisty?"
"How did you bare her for past 16 years?" Elliot scoots closer whispering with a annoyed expression
"Evelyn, he is trying to ditch you!"
"Who cares about that dumbass?" Evelyn replies making her way outside the room
"You got one sassy girl by your side brother-in-law"
"Scared for my future"
.
"I hate plane rides"
"Wanna swim all the way to Manchester?"
"I am not talking to you shithead"
"Why are you so cranky today?" Rowan scoffs
"Never mind, I'm okay"
"What's the matter, love?"
"Nothing, scared maybe!"
"Why?"
"Don't want you to leave again because of some random shit of a person. Everything is falling in place Elliot, I don't want anyone to ruin it this time" Evelyn sighs leaning on the latter's shoulder
"I won't leave Evelyn, I promise"
"I trust you. I may sound selfish still I just want you near me and nowhere else. Didn't open up but I don't wanna relive those 3 months again"
"Trust me Mi Cielo, I am not gonna leave you ever again. Love you"
Loving is not an easy task, too much more complicated than a person thinks. Leaving his lover for 3 months brought too many emotions which are slowly getting out of control. Covered up guilt beneath the layers of happiness in the heart is slowly crawling up again clogging his mind. Forgetting about their precious memories which were too important for the latter is killing him. The urge and need to convince himself that his love is too strong is crossing the limit
Staying beside Evelyn all day without a complete feeling is creating a void which is so hard to fill. After all the tragic events happened because of his tempered self, it's hard for a person to trust him entirely again. There's nothing wrong with Evelyn and her feelings, Elliot is solely responsible for the uncovering consequences. Promise the couple made when he asked her out can break at any point and being scared of that is completely valid
.
"Welcome home, Winner"
"Stop Mom!" Evelyn chuckles hugging her Mom after a rather long flight
"Congrats dancer!"
"Thank you so much Dad"
"We told you to come Mom, it would have been great if you both were there too" Rowan sighs
"It's fine, your Mom didn't have a break"
"Good Evening, Blake Couple"
"Stop with formal greetings Mr. Carter" Evelyn's father bows dramatically making the others burst into laughter
"Okay okay. I am hungry my dear aunt"
"Food's waiting for you"
"I am not a kid dad!"
"You are for us!"
"Hope I don't find some Hot wheels or barbie"
"Too old for that" Elliot chuckles
"Stop you grumpy oldie"
"We are of same age, Mi Cielo"
"Ready for the reveal?"
"Yeah"
Rowan removes the blindfold as she meets with a new shining black huge thing standing proudly in front of their house. Black prince she always dreamed of having with her was now hers. Latest model of Range Rover was parked so gracefully shining under the setting sun screaming for her to take the lead
"Oh My God! Is it real!"
"For you! You won your dream competition Evelyn, you deserve this!" her father hugs patting her shoulder in an appreciative way
"Thank you thank you so much Dad, I love you both"
"You love this and we love you too"
"Go for a ride?"
"Yes!"
"Be back home fast okay?" Evelyn's Mom playfully warns walking back into the house leaving the couple alone after their first car ride
"Don't worry"
"How's your car?"
"You knew this too!"
"Of course, we chose this for you and it was decided regardless of your result"
"Damn, I am one lucky being"
"Cause I'm on your side" Elliot smirks earning a smack
"Stop boasting"
"Where are we heading to?" Elliot questions with sleepy eyes
"Somewhere peaceful"
"I am sleepy Evelyn, let's head back"
"It's not even 9 Elliot!"
"We had a long trip, I am tired"
"Ask your Mi Cielo to remove that"
"What's she gonna do about it?"
"Kiss your tiredness away!"
Evelyn parks the car beside a snowy road unbuckling her seatbelt, slowly leaning towards the dozing person blowing air gently
"What's your intention, love?"
"Not everything is said with words writer"
She places a soft kiss on his jawline moving sideways smooching his cheekbone all the way near his lips. Ignoring the sudden tension in the car Elliot closes his eyes with a satisfactory smile pulling the latter closer by her waist. Evelyn softly kisses his eyes, nose followed by leaving a quick peck on his lips
"Teasing is prohibited"
Elliot grabs her placing her on his lap attaching their lips into a heated kiss. Nibbling and sucking softly getting loosing themselves in their awaited moment feels so beautiful. Evelyn drags her hands towards his half open shirt revealing more of his torso by opening the last 3 buttons. She kisses his neck moving down slowly to his collarbones biting lightly gaining a groan from the latter

"Enjoy while you can lovely couple! Here, I come!"
