We have been driving for four hours now,Elvis is back asleep and i was reading the last chapter of my book.In the background i could hear the morning 9'oclock radio broadcasting i still had no idea where we was and how long it was going to take to get there,The broadcaster was saying that Elvis is in town and how it'll take to get there according to the broadcaster people are already queuing outside the venue and it's sold out,They were interviewing girls queuing in line i had all of a sudden got nervous,I laid down on the back car seat and laid my head on Elvis's lap.I kept falling in and out of sleep,Elvis sounded so cute snoring his head off but was also annoying, "Are you's two awake" Marcus said in a soft tone "I am but Elvis is knocked out" "Do you want to go for some breakfast? we're coming up to a diner dorothy?" "Sure thing" I leaned up to see a ran down diner the curtains were ripped and the signs were hanging off the building, We pulled up rightoutside the door of the diner. "Dorothy do you have any water left?" "I sure do Marcus.." "On the count of three Dorothy i want you to remove the jacket ok? are you ready?" "Ok i'm ready" i said with a huge grin on my face "3...2...1!" I quickly grabbed the coat off Elvis's face and threw it on the front seat as marcus unscrewered the waterbottle lid and threw the water over elvis. I quickly opened the door and ran into the diner as i heard Marcus's heavy footsteps running behind me,We ran to the booth at the back of the diner by the window there was no one out in the diner section apart from me and marcus,Marcus was crying with laughter and so was i just because of him.I saw Elvis staggering over to the diner with my coat looking like he has no idea what has just gone on, He slamed the door open and it hit the wall that the glass on the window vibrated "morning mr you're in a great mood today!" Elvis slid across the booth seat close to the window oppitsite me and marcus. He crossed his arms and put them on the table as he rested his head on his crossed arms and threw the coat over him and once again he had fallen asleep,The Waitress came out of the back room with a pot of coffee and three mugs,She poured us all a cup of coffee and took our orders,I ordered bacon and french toast and Marcus ordered egg,bacon and fried potatoes, Elvis was snoring quietly. The waitress was a chubby teenage girl who had beautiful blonde straight hair with light brown eyes like whiskey "Are you lucky people going to the Elvis show tonight?" "I guess we are" Marcus laughed "I love Elvis i tell ya' He's my soul mate my parents wouldn't let me go to his show so i have to work here" If only she knew it was Elvis under that coat, I smiled at her and took a sip of the coffee and added a teaspoon of sugar. "What do you think of Elvis?" she looked over at me "Ah he's not my type of person" marcus grinned as he stared at me, The girl looked shocked "Well that's one less girl i've gotta worry about stealing my man" she laughed and so did i.

She went into the kitchen and bought our food out to us i asked her if she could make some pancakes and bacon to go for Elvis for when he wakes up, Me and Marcus tucked into our food for a dirty looking place the food was sure enough good! i was surprised. The waitress bought Elvis's pancakes over to us wrapped up in a plastic wrapping on a plastic plate,we gave her the money and as she turned her back on us i kicked elvis underneath the table "Go now" he woke up and ran to the car and covered up again,"He sure does sleep enough" i said to marcus as he held the door open for me. "Hey Marcus would you like me to drive? you must be getting tired" "Are you sure dorothy?" "I sure am!" We walked over to the car, We got in the car and i started the engine "sorry Marcus where should I drive to? When you see the exit for Louisiana wake me up" shortly after Marcus had fallen asleep. I turned the radio up to block then two snoring, it was cute seeing them two snuggled up to each other, on the radio they were playing some elvis songs, this is the most I've heard of elvis today and it's only him on the radio, I was tapping my fingers on the steering wheel along to the beat of the drums, the traffic was kind of getting busy as Louisiana was in the distance, I had been driving for roughly 45 minutes now.

I saw a sign for Louisiana i indicated to pull over, i pulled over on the side of the road and woke Marcus up, I slid over to the passenger side as he got into the drivers seat, he rubbed his eyes and started driving "sorry Dorothy when i tell you to get out near the hotel you've gotta go and meet us in the hotel m,Elvis's room is under frank smith, it's just so the press and the fans don't hassle you" "i understand Marcus". I turned around and grabbed my coat off the back seats to get prepared to get out. We drove into the city it took us 20 minutes, "you're gonna have to get out now" Marcus said as he pulled into a back alley way "I'll take your suitcase so don't worry about that, the hotel is literally around the corner", I grabbed my coat and got out the car as it sped off around the corner, i put my coat on as the crowd of people started screaming. "Bloody hell" i muttered as I walked on to the Main Street, a gentleman behind me said "i hope you aren't going to see that elvis presley! He's driving all the girls in the town crazy" i laughed "no way! He isn't my kind of man" he chuckled "oh I'm sure have a nice day" and he walked past me. I pushed my way through the crowds and the security of the hotel pulled me through, I made my way over to the receptionist and she made me write out the name of the room was checked in under. She called the room and security took me up to his room.

The elevator was silent i kept looking at the ground until I heard the bell noise of arriving to the floor, the security told me to stay in the lift until he checked the surrounding areas, I walked out of the lift and followed behind him to room 308, he knocked on the door in some kind of pattern and Elvis opened the door, his face lit up when he saw me, I walked in and sat on the corner of the bed as elvis shut the door and locked it, i look my coat off and laid it out on his bed. He walked over to his wardrobe and opened it there was some shirts,blazers and trousers, I got off his bed and sat on the floor next to my case what was by the door and opened it and grabbed his blazer Gladys gave to me and chucked it on the bed "um here's the blazer your mother gave me when I visited her" he looked over to me "thanks", I felt like i was bothering him and I've been with the awake elvis for 10 minutes, he started to unbutton his black shirt, I tried not to look, you could see the bones through his back. I noticed finger nail scratch marks down his back. I looked away and I felt my stomach drop, I was growing feelings for him and I thought it was the same for him.. Clearly not. As he was stood there picking out a new shirt to wear i picked my case up and headed out the room, Marcus was stood outside the door "where you going Dorothy?" I just need to get myself my own room." I headed down to the reception area with tears in my eyes, how could I let myself get feelings like this so quickly. I asked the receptionist if there was any rooms left, luckily there was one. She gave me the keys to room 205 on the second floor. I got back in the lift and headed to the second floor, I got to my room and it was beautiful but it smelt like cigarette smoke. I dropped my suitcase by the door and opened the windows to let some fresh air in, I ran went through my hand bag hoping i had my notebook with Hayley's number in it, I dialled her number "hello Hayley it's me Dorothy could you spend the night with me in Louisiana? I'm begging you" she only lived 35 minutes away from the hotel.m, "sure i can but why are you in Louisiana?" She said in a confused tone "I'll explain later just come up to room 205 and ask for a key at reception" i hung the phone up and ran myself a bath. I got undressed and chucked my clothes on the bed and tied my hair up so my hair wouldn't get wet, I added some of the bubble bath that's complimentary, it smelt like lavender. The water tempter was just fine. I quickly shaved my legs and washed my face, I got out the bath and dried my self and wrapped myself in the robe that was hanging in the door, I walked out of the bathroom to find elvis laying on my bed, all i had on was this robe, I walked straight past him, he was watching the tv. I walked over to chested draws and picked up my ear rings and put them in, elvis jumped up onto his feet and shouted "what the fuck is wrong with you Dorothy!!!" as he grabbed my wrist and pulls me towards me. I looked at him in the eyes "don't you dare fucking grab me like that ever again! What's wrong with me?! I'm the one who came all this way to sit in a fucking car for hours listening to you snore! I heard you speak more on the fucking radio than hearing your actual voice you asshole and then i see these marks on your back?! What do you think is wrong with me!!" Marcus slammed the door open and dragged elvis out of my room. I burst into tears, this is only our first day seeing each other and it's already turned out to be the worst decision of my life. I crawled into bed and cried myself to sleep.

I woke up to Hayley embracing me and stroking my hair, I opened my eyes and squeezed her, "it's okay i know what happened" I was still in just the robe, Hayley chose an outfit/underwear for me,she pushed me out of bed "go get ready we're going out." I grabbed the clothes and underwear and headed to the bathroom, i locked the bathroom door and got dressed into jeans and a cream coloured blouse and thick cardigan, i put some make up on and let my hair down, i grabbed my bright red lipstick on and headed out the door, Marcus was in the bedroom area "elvis is really sorry about what happened he's feeling terrible about it all, he's just got all these emotions going on right now, he wants to take you both out for lunch", I looked at Hayley "no thanks were going out already, tell him i might not come to the show and I might head back home tomorrow".
