I
woke up the next morning, and Gage was already driving. I
looked at the clock, and it read 9:00 a.m.
"That's a pretty early wake-up time for me,
don't you think?" I asked.
"Considering the fact that you usually wake up at
noon, not too shabby. Someone looks adorable in her
sleep... you know, when she's not snoring," Gage
replied, flirtatiously.
"I DO NOT!" I said, laughing. I turned on the
radio to change the subject... I've already been told I
snore before. I didn't know ever I did in front of my
boyfriend...
We spent the day just talking and joking around in the car
with occasional stops now and then. At around 5:00, we
reached the New Jersey border, tired and exhausted. As we
were driving, we heard some noise coming from the car. Gage
pulled over to try and figure out what happened.
"What happened!?" I asked from inside the
car.
"I'm not sure what happened! It's probably
nothing," he said, closing the hood and getting back
in the car.
When he went to restart the car, it wouldn't start.
"What just happened..." I asked, worried.
"I'll just call triple A. I have my parents'
credit card. Don't worry babe, we'll be
fine."
I zoned out as he called the tow company. He looked over at
me again after the phone call.
"They're on their way now. It'll be about 30 minutes before
they get here. Repairs will be done overnight, and they
said they can bring us to a motel around the area. We'll be
fine," he reassured me.
I looked over at him after my moment of thinking.
"Do you think any of this is a mistake? Should we have done
this? I-I just, I don't kn---"
He kissed me. Just like that. He just reached for my face
and kissed me. After a few seconds, he pulled back and
looked me in the eyes.
"None of this, Tara, has been a mistake. I have no regrets
about what we're doing. We needed this. We needed to be
together and away from what they've put us through.
Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, is wrong or a mistake with
you. I have nothing to be guilty about," Gage told me.
We sat in silence for a while, before I finally broke the
silence and said, "Are you sure?"
"Positive. Absolutely positive."
"I don't think I would be happy anywhere else if I wasn't
with you."
"Me either, Tara. Me either."
"Tell me, what's the
definition of
love?"
