grand canyon | 08

They were leaving tomorrow night, and she wanted to make the most of their time together. She had promised him a trip to the Grand Canyon, so that’s exactly where they were going to go. After some convincing, her parents had allowed them to stay out over-night, as long as they took the necessary precautions. Her father was slowly beginning to trust Nick, which sent Katrina over the moon. She just hoped that everything went smoothly so that her dad didn’t change his mind. It meant a lot to her that they were there and she wanted to have a good time before they went back to school. Who knew what would be waiting for them when they returned. 

Once they parked the car at the visitor’s center at the Grand Canyon, she got out of the car to get their bags out in her workout shorts, sneakers, and top. They had a larger backpack that held the contents of the tent that they could set up for tonight, with another one that held anything else they would need. She was all set for the hike and she put her hair up in a ponytail, rubbing sunscreen on her body so she wouldn’t burn. It wasn’t super hot out but the sun was bright. Going to her boyfriend, she put some sunscreen on her fingers before rubbing his face. “Alright. I’ve got the map in the front pocket. We should be all set to go,” she said with a smile.

the secret’s out || 08

After a long week, all Wes wanted was to relax on his bed. His bones ached from all of the running around he had been doing, between helping loading shipments with the organization, and trying to secure a job. He been working a few shifts at town hall, but nothing was guaranteed. Still, he was happy with what he could get. He had yet to start working at the restaurant, but that was in the works. Laying back on his pillows, he looked over at Sara next to him, who was busy watching the television. He felt bad, staying in on a Friday night, but she insisted on still hanging out. Whatever time they could spend together was a great time. Laying on his stomach, he blew out a breath. God, he really didn’t want to be lame and fall asleep. He just needed a boost of energy.

AGetting up, he went into the kitchen and drank a cold glass of water, knowing that it was a better shot at waking him up. Splashing his face with water as well, he then went back to his bedroom to see Sara. Crawling back on the bed, he laid back next to her, nuzzling his head against her neck. “Hey,” he said quietly, picking his head up to look at her, trying to distract her from the TV. “I’m gonna feel pretty lame if I spend the rest of the night falling asleep,” he told her. “Why don’t we do something?”
