Bad In Common

Chapter 41 ??

" Drive safely. We'll stop at the first gas station." Tyler greets as he opens my car door for me and allows me to climb into the drivers seat. He gives me a quick kiss before closing the door and walking over to his car where Mason is already waiting with his phone pressed against his ear.

Does he really need to come?

" I'll see you later." I hear Emily whisper to Parker before she gives him a long and soggy kiss. Parker opens the passenger door for her to climb in and closes it before walking over to Tyler's car.

I start the engin and drive off towards Trish's building where both she and Samantha are waiting for my arrival.

" Hey guys. Excited for the trip?" I greet them as I climb out of my car.

" I'm stoked." Trish answers with a wide smile.

" I kind of miss your braces." Emily comments.

She looked good with braces but I like seeing her bright wide smile. It's like once the braces are removed they don't stop smiling.

We help them load in their luggage before we're off on the road. I just came back from an 8 hour road trip and now I'm driving another 7 hours all the way to South Carolina.

I apologize to my butt cheeks for putting them in such pain.

" I think I'm in love." Emily blurts out all of the sudden.

My foot hits hard on the brake causing the car to stop fast and everyone to fall forward.

" Excuse me?"

" Oh hell no."

" Sweet."

We all say at the same time.

After Emily finishes catching her breath from the sudden stop she turns to look at our shocked faces.

" Don't be like this." she whines.

" Didn't you and asswipe just spilt up? " Samantha asks confused.

" Yeah so? I'm moving on." Emily states.

" What happened between you and Ashton? You guys were so cute." Trish wonders out loud.

The car falls silent after Trish's question. I look over at Emily with a worried expression. I know she isn't ready to talk about what happened between the two of them and the only reason why Parker, Tyler and I know is because of the anesthesia.

" We just didn't feel a spark anymore." Emily shrugs.

If only that was the reason.

Trish and Samantha nod in understanding.

" Parker is way hotter than asswipe." Samantha comments.

" Babe!" Trish scolds her girlfriend and playfully punches her in the arm.

" He's not my type. He has a dick. I like - "

" Okay let's continue with our road trip." I interrupt Samantha. I quickly start the car and turn the volume up so that the music can block out whatever is coming out of Samantha's mouth.

No need for details.

We sing along to old hits that include of One Direction, T-Swift and of course, Justin Bieber. Not that I listen to any of their music anymore but it brings back a lot of memories.

We stopped at the first gas station to meet up with everyone and grab some snacks. I struggled to get Emily away from Parker and back into the car. They're like magnets when they are together. I'm happy for her but I do not want to witness them sucking out each other's souls every few seconds.
