Safe Travels

I eventually agreed. We worked out all the details and I suddenly found myself on the road with Skrillex. 


We were on a plane flying to Florida for his next show. We were flying a red eye so I was tired as hell. I was thankful though that I had time to put a bag together at my parents place. So I was in and out of sleep on the plane while Sonny sat awake next to me with his headphones on bouncing his head a little. 


When we landed a few hours later I stretched a little when I stood up from my seat. 


"Do you ever sleep?" I asked him with a snicker. 


"Not when there's work to be done." He said. 


"Didn't I recently hear you say the words 'fuck work'?" I was still snickering and he nudged me.


"Different situation." He defended. 


"Mhm." I smiled. 


We got off the plane on the got all our bags. We were making our way through the airport to a set of cabs waiting to take everyone to a hotel. I was walking ahead of Sonny and he was walking next to Hog. I vaguely heard a comment about how Sonny wasn't over exaggerating and I had a feeling it was a comment about me. 


We made our way to the hotel and Sonny told me I was staying with him so  we made our way to his room. 


"So fancy." I laughed at the simple hotel room. 


"I don't need fancy." Sonny said as he threw his bag down by the bed and flopped down spinning on to his back in the middle of the bed. 


"I like it." I smiled and set my bag down next to his. Instead of flopping onto bed with him I crawled on the bed until I was on top of him. 


"I'm glad you came." He said and his hands my his way down my arms. I sat on top of his hips and leaned down to kiss him. His hands made his way up my shirt and my shirt made its way to the floor. 


"Mmm wait." I sat back up. "Put that song on." I fixed my hair.


"Really? Now?" He asked and put his hands on my hips. 


"Yes now. What better way to turn me on now?" I gave him a smirk.


"Good to know." He practically shoved me off of him and on the bed and jumped up to grab his laptop. He put the song on repeat and jumped on top of me. Before I could even breathe his lips were on mine.


Our night was pure heaven. I'd never been so happy or felt so complete in my life. I woke up the next morning incredibly early, like usual. 


I decided to go downstairs and get myself breakfast. I was halfway through eating when I got a text from Sonny asking where I was. I told him and the lobby eating and I never got a response but about five minutes later he was sitting down across from me. He yawned as soon as he sat down. 


"Why didn't you just stay in bed? I would have brought you something." I told him and he shrugged.


"I need to get up any way." He yawned again. "Gotta finish song." He mumbled and I could tell his eyes were closing. I fought myself from rolling my eyes and I put my fork down. 


"Well I'm so full I can't eat anymore. Come back to bed with me." I half pouted. 


"Okay." And he stood up. I threw my plate away and I put my arm around his mid section. On the elevator ride up he put his arm around my shoulder and leaned into me. I was only about halfway through my meal and totally could have eaten more but I knew he never slept and could use every ounce of it. 


I went back to bed with him and he was out as soon as his head hit the pillow. I however, laid there and thought about everything that was happening. I decided to grab my phone off the bedside table and text Todd to let him know what was going on with me. 


He responded telling me to have fun and be safe. 


"Hey." I said to Sonny as he rubbed his face to wake himself up. 


"Hi." He said. 


"Who are you texting this early?" He asked and sat up on an elbow.


"Todd." I told him.


"How's his girlfriend doing?" Sonny asked. "What's her name again?" 


"Kristen. And she's good. I'm planning her baby shower. She's due soon." I told him. 


"She living with you guys now?" 


I could feel my eyebrows pull together. "Yeah, I guess."


"You don't know?" Sonny asked and pulled himself up so he was completely sitting up right. He was hunched over and put his arms out in front of him to stretch. 


"No, they never really said anything about it and I haven't really asked. I also haven't been very social lately so I don't really have room to say anything." I reasoned. 


"You still live there. They should have told you something." 


I shrugged.


"What happens when the baby comes?" He asked and I was at a loss. I hadn't really put much thought into it. The thought of being up every night listening to screaming cries didn't bring me any joy though. Sonny must have sensed it was bringing my whole mood down because he leaned over and fell on top of me so he was laying on my lap looking up at me. He reached up and grabbed my nose plugging it closed. I instantly jerked away and slapped his hand but his other hand grabbed my nose again and did the same. 


I laughed and continued to slap at him. "Knock it off!" I tried to push him off me unsuccessfully. "Go wash your hair or something!" I shoved him. 


"Is it bad?" He laughed and grabbed a lock of his hair and smelled it. I smiled and rolled my eyes. 


"Only if you wash it for me." He winked at me and jumped up off the bed and I was left alone in bed. 


"I can do that." I flipped my hair and climbed out of bed. 


The days started to blur together and they turned into the same routine. I was getting really close with Sonny's road crew and the people he was on tour with. Everyone was so happy to be there and I hoped someday I would have a job where it wouldn't feel like work everyday. 


After traveling with Sonny for about a week I made my way back home. I went into a dull and boring routine. The only excitement I got was planning Kristen's baby shower. I was going balls to the wall on it because she deserved it.
