Chapter 150 - "I'll go wherever you take me..."

Gulping in nervousness, Brandon answered, "Well, I'll not let myself get carried away with all the squeezing."

Patting his right cheek, Charlotte smiled, "I see but too bad I have no intentions of doing it again, I think I have already seen what I am supposed to."

"No, you haven't seen anything so—" he stopped midway when his phone started ringing and when he received it, Noah started yelling.

"Dude, why the hell did you stop? We are already running late."

Hanging up the call, he turned on the engine and sneered, "We are not done Charlotte Adams you—"

Cutting him off, she said, "But I am certainly done with you." Without waiting for his reply, she shoved the airpods inside her ear and closed her eyes, leaving Brandon to fume in frustration and anger.

….

Sebastian's car.

Checking his pocket, Sebastian widened his eyes in shock when he couldn't feel the box. Stopping the car midway, he checked his other pocket and breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that it was still there.

"Seb what happened?" Elli inquired, this was the third time she had seen him feel his pockets which was very suspicious.

Hesitating for a while, he answered, "I-I am looking for my phone."

Pointing towards his phone which was lying on the dashboard, right on front of their eyes, she added, "Its right here, are you alright?" Touching his forehead, she frowned, "You don't look sick."

Clearing his throat, he explained, "I did not see that," before turning on the engine.

Shrugging off his weird behaving thinking that she might be overthinking, she scrolled down the window and took a deep breath. 

Though the day was bright and sunny, it wasn't too hot. The sky was clear and as they kept on driving towards the suburbs, the view of the mountains kept getting clearer. 

"I like the countryside, the air outside the city has a different charm to it." Turning towards him, she asked, "Don't you think so?"

"Yes, it's fresh and very refreshing. In fact, my grandpa has a farmhouse and it's beautiful. Noah, I and Ava used to go there on our summer breaks, I'll take you there someday." 

She smiled and nodded her head, "I would love to go there."

Grabbing her hand, he pressed his against his lips. "I wanna take you to so many places El."

Wrapping her arms around his, she placed her head on his shoulder, "I will go wherever you take me."

Kissing the top of her head, he smiled, life would be so much more beautiful and happy after they leave the camping ground. And if everything goes as he had planned, they would be a couple and would start dating officially.

….

Two hours later.

After driving for two hours straight, they decided to stop by an open field to relax and also to enjoy the beautiful scenario.

Sitting on the ground, Melissa sighed, "Hey El, doesn't this remind you of the camping trip we went on when we were in high school?" 

Ellie chuckled and nodded her head, "It sure does, we had so much fun right?"

"I am sure that you had fun but—" squeezing in between them, Noah grinned, "This camping is going to be more fun because this trip includes me." 

Rolling her eyes at her boyfriend who was acting like a wuss, Melissa snapped, "Don't listen to him El, he doesn't like it when I talk about the camping because I made out with Johnny Decker behind the tent." 

"But I thought you made out with his brother Glen Decker." When Melissa widened her eyes in shock, Ellie shrugged her shoulders, "What? I saw the two of you going behind that bush in the middle of the night."

Ava chuckled and beamed, "You made out with both the brothers in the same trip?" 

"Oh God, savage Melissa," Charlotte added.

"What? Both were cute," she defended herself.

Noah frowned and almost freaked out, "You made out with two Deckers and you are telling me this now? How could you do this to me?" 

"That was high school man." Wrapping his arms around his shoulder, Brandon continued, "At that time, you were surely sticking your tongue down some random girls throat." 

While everyone was happily laughing and having a great time, someone was exceptionally quiet and probably overthinking about all the possibilities that could happen.

Placing her hand on his thigh, Ellie aske, "What happened? You seem a bit lost." 

Coming out of his stupor, he vigorously shook his head and answered, "It's nothing, I am okay." 

"Oh come on, you clearly seem to be worried about something." Pausing for a while, Calvin teased, "Tell us what's wrong Seb." 

"Yes, the camping crew wants to know," Owen added.

"Blurt it out buddy," Brandon chuckled.

"He is surely having a headache because you people are blabbering so much, I mean even I am already getting sick of your voices and Sebastian is a very sensitive man," Charlotte snapped. 

Clearing his throat, Sebastian nodded his head, "Just a little headache." 

"Headache? Why didn't you tell me earlier? How will you drive?" 

"No it's nothing very serious, I am alright and I can drive," Sebastian explained.

"Are you sure?" When he nodded his head, Ellie got up and rushed towards their car. " I'll get some water for you." 

After she left, Charlotte helplessly shook her head and dragged Sebastian with her to a distance where nobody could hear them.

"What the hell is wrong with you? You are behaving like this is the end of time or the world is going to end." Without waiting for his reply, Charlotte snapped harder, "She is supposed to enjoy this but you are making her feel worried." 

"I am just stressed okay? It's not my fault." 

Pinching her brows, she placed her hand on his shoulder, "You are proposing her because you love her and you want to be with her right?" When he nodded his head, she added, "You are about to propose the woman you desire the most, she is going to be yours forever Sebastian so shouldn't you be happy and enjoying this? You look like someone is forcing you to do this on gunpoint."
