The front door is already locked and I'm laying down on the the steps that go up to the house trying to calm my breathing.

I open my bag up and spray some of the cologne on my wrist to help me calm down.

I place it back in my bag and shut my eyes with my wrist to my nose smelling in the scent.

About 10 minutes later I hear a car turn in. I squeeze my eyes shut and continue breathing deep.

It's ok, it's ok. I repeat to my self in my head.

I hear my dad talking to Archer not even letting him get one word in yet.

I haven't looked over to my right but I fill eyes burning into my face.

"Becca" I hear my mom say

"Mhmm" I mumble.

"Don't you want to say hello to your uncle Archer?" My mom asks

I scrunch up my nose at the uncle part. "He's not my uncle and no thanks." I say opening my eyes looking up at the sky.

"Becca..." my mom start to say but my phone starts to ring.

Thank God

I stand up and answer the phone call. Not even bothering to look at the ID of the caller.

"Hello" I say still not looking over at Archer

"Have you left yet." I hear on the other end.

That gets a smile out of me.

"No but we are about to. Why?" I ask MK
I met her in high school and we haven't been able to separate since.

"I just thought that you forgot to call me." She says.

I laugh

"I told you I would call once we leave and once we get there." I say back

"I know but I thought you forgot." She says with a sad voice.

"Well I didn't I was fixing to call you once I got In The car. "

"Is he there yet?" She asks

She knows most of the story about what happened between me and Archer because when we had sleepovers she would see the picture of him on my blanket that I would always sleep with and ask who it was.

"Yep. " I say looking at the ground.

"We'll has he changed since last time you saw him."

"I don't know. I haven't looked yet." I reply

"What are you going to do give him the cold shoulder the whole 2 weeks including the 6 hour long trip that you are going to be in the car with him."

"Yeah, probably." I say

"Jesus, well call me as your on the road if you get to bored." She says

"I will, love you."

"Love you too"

I end the call and pick my backpack up off the step that I was laying on.

I finally look up and look over to wear my mom is on her phone probably trying to find a good way to get to the mountains. I look over to my dad and see that he is still talking to archer.

I finally get enough courage to take a peek at Archer.

When I do I suck in a sharp breath. GOOD GOD this man had turned into the hulk. He is all muscle. No fat at all. When I look up I am meet with his ocean blue eyes.

My dad is still rambling on but Archer is looking straight at me.

I quickly look away and look at the ground clenching my jaw probably breaking a tooth.

"Okay, let's go." My mom says walking over to the car.

I walk over to the car and get in behind the drivers side.

I put my bag in the middle so it would separate me from Archer.

My dad get in the passenger side while the back door opens.

I feel the heat of his body automatically as he slides in. I clench my hands and close my eyes.

"Becca" my dad says

I open my eyes and look over at my dad

"Could you get my phone? Its In the back ." He say.

I nod my head and move my back pack in the floor. So much for separating us.

I put my knees in the middle seat a lean over to dig through my dads bag. I'm unzipping a pocket when my mom decides that it time to back up.

My body gets thrown back but something catches me before I slam my back into the console.

I quickly realized that It was Archer hands holding me from smashing my back against the console.

"Shit Becca, are you ok." My mom says
Trying to touch me and check for damage.

I smack her hand away. "I'm fine mom."

I look at Archers hand that was still on my stomach.

"You can let go now." I growl. Trying to forget about the butterfly's swarming around in my stomach.

Once he let go I quickly snatch the

Phone out of the pocket that I opened and handed it to my dad.

"Thanks sweetheart." My dad says

"Ok mom." I say so she knows that I'm ready.

We finally leave the drive way and are own our way to the mountains.
********

My dad and Archer has been talking for about 2 hours know. His voice is so deep from the last time I heard him talk.

My mom is on a highway some where.

I have no clue were we are at all.

"Mom" I mumble my first word from the the 2 hours.

"Yeah sweetheart."
"I have to use the bathroom."
"Ok there is a intersection up here that has some gas stations."

We finally make it to the gas station and I practically jump out of the car and run to the bathroom.

I make it to the bathroom but see that some one is in there I groan and bounce up and down.

Archer walks over to me and stares down at me. I look up at him ready to ask what he wants but before I can ask he talks first.

"Why are you ignoring me?" He says

I narrow my eyes at the asshole and look back at the door. I bang on the door again moving foot to foot trying to ignore Archer.

"Becca, why ar.." he gets cut off by the door to the girls room flying open.

A girl in her late 20 comes out of the bathroom. She looks me up and down then Looks over to Archer.

She barges past me but stops in front of Archer and starts to wobble on her feet.

"What's your name pretty boy." My face scrunches up at her.

The fuck did she just call him.

He was about to say something but I got in the very small space that was between her and Archer.

She look up at me because even though am 18 I still have a good five inches on her 5'4.

"What do you want bi..." before she can get the rest of the word out of her mouth I speak over her.

"If I was you I would rethink what you are about to say to me." I say calmly

"Yeah, why should I ?" She asks while wobbling on her feet.

God she's drunk or really high.

I smile sweetly at her " Go ahead and finish the sentence and find out what happens." I say in a sweet voice.

She looks up at archer and huffs. She wobbles her way out of the hall and into the main room.

"Drunk bitch" I mumble

I roll my eyes and walk into the women's bathroom before Archer could say anything .

Once I'm done I open the door to find Archer still waiting out side the door.

I rolls my eyes and walk past him. As I do I smell the heavenly scent of his cologne.

I get a sucker and a coke slushy before going back to the car. Archer comes out a minute later and gets into the car with a bag of snacks.

We make our way back on the highway while listening to music.

I pop the sucker into my mouth and look out of the window at the traffic beside us.

I feel a tap on my should I look over to see Archer holding out pink and yellow starburst for me.

I look at his hand for awhile. He's about to pull his hand back but before he can get to far I snatch the starburst out of his hand.

"You remember?" I mumble looking at the two colors.

When we had movie night we would always pick the pink and yellow out of the bag and twist them together so we could eat them.

"Of course." He says
