Chapter thirty- Love is never wrong

Oscar Alcott's Pov:

"Wow. The stars are sure so beautiful."

"We are lost in a wasteland."

"Well, excuse me for looking on the bright side."

I chuckled listening to Mathew and Valentino's conversation. I was half-sitting. Emily was sleeping hugging me. Valentino and Mathew were sitting with each other. I looked over at Adira who was sitting by my side. She was sitting alone by the window. Lancelot was alone in the front too. No one joined him in the front to lay down at the back. Adira is has been quiet since she came out of the restroom. Was she not feeling well? I tapped on her shoulder to gain her attention. She turned her body to face me. She leaned against the window and smiled at me. I smiled back.

"Hey."

"Hey,"

"Are you feeling alright?" I asked her softly.

"Mhm. What about you? Are you okay?"

"Yep, never been better."

"Oscar."

"Hm."

"Can you promise me something?"

"Depends on the something," I replied chuckling.

"Forget it. "

"Not fair. You have made me curious Tell me now."

"I will tell you later." Saying that Adira laid down beside hugging me like Emily. I kept caressing both their heads and closed my eyes to sleep too.

Lancelot Carter's Pov:

Everyone was asleep at the back. It was quite so sudden. Oh, Valentino was awake. We made eye contact through the mirror. He tried to come to the front passing everyone. He did it. I chuckled seeing him breathing after sitting beside me at the front. I was still driving since we had to get to the safe place fast.

"Aren't you tired? Take some rest. Let's start again in the morning.", Valentino suggested.

"I can't take rest now. I have had enough rest. We need to reach the safe place as quickly as we can. I can feel something is not okay." I said focusing on the road.

"What happened?"

"Nothing. I just feel like Snow Willson is here. He is with us."

"Did you spot him?"

"No, I didn't. I just feel like it. I'm afraid of feeling like this,"

"Hey, he is not here. Don't worry. We are okay. Everyone is safe and sound. Aren't we? Stop worrying. We will get there fast."

" I hope so. I just hope there is nothing to be worried about."

"There is nothing. Trust me."

I nodded at him. We went silent. I was focused on the road. Valentino was doing something on his phone. The silence was comfortable. So, I didn't try anything to break that.

Adira Skylar's Pov:

I woke up hearing a loud noise. I opened my eyes only to be blessed with the bright light of the sun. I blinked eyes to adjust my eyes to the light. I tried to sit up but couldn't. Lancelot was crushing me with his whole body which was basically over me. When did he lay down? I threw my head back again on the bed. I touched Lancelot's face. He looks like a baby while sleeping. I caressed his cheeks softly. Moving his hair away from his forehead, I placed a small kiss there. I opened his eyes startling me.

"Good morning." He greeted me with his sexy morning voice.

"Morning," I greeted back blushing due to his sexy sleepy voice.

"Did you sleep well?" He asked me hugging me more tightly.

"Mhm," I said hugging him back.

He smiled and placed his face at the crook of my neck. He nibbled on my skin making me startled again.

"Hey!" I yelled at him. He chuckled.

"Don't do that! It feels weird, idiot!" I scolded him trying to lower my volume.

"This is how I show my endearment, baby. Don't scold me." He whined still keeping his head on my neck. I kept quiet not knowing what to say. Others were asleep beside me. Lancelot nibbled on my skin again. I slapped his back. He kissed on that spot where he nibbled on. My breathing became heavy. I felt weird in my stomach. He kept kissing on that spot. A quiet moan escaped my lips. I immediately held my mouth. I pushed away Lancelot with all my strength. He moved away in confusion.

"Don't do that. Don't do that ever again. I feel weird in my body. I will boil your teeth if you do that ever again!" I whisper yelled at him. He pouted at me. Then again threw himself over me and hugged me. Softly, this time. I didn't hug back. I just closed my eyes and laid there. I am hungry.

"Hug me,"

"Nope,"

"Please?"

"Hug yourself."

"I have you. Why would I hug myself?"

"Hug Mathew."

"He is over there. How can I hug him from here? Hug me, baby!"

"Nope."

He pecked my lips quickly making me blush. He smiled at me. "Give me a hug, baby." He said smiling like a fool. I tried to cover my 'so in love' smile but couldn't help myself seeing his dimple. He put my hands on his waist and pulled me closer if it was even possible to go closer. Smiling like a fool and blushing like crazy, I hugged him back.

It was raining so hard when everyone was up. Thank God we had food this time with us. Lancelot and Valentino found a grocery store last night when everyone was in their dreamlands and brought over some food to pass a day.

I was sitting by the window. The weather felt so gloomy. It was chilly too. We were not driving anymore since the weather was way too bad. It made Lancelot tense up. He was worried. We were worried too seeing him so worked up.

To my surprise, I was thinking of how can Snow Willson meet me today. I had some questions for him. I know he won't ever answer those. But it doesn't hurt to give it a try. I looked at Lancelot, he was eating chips. He looked cute while eating. Leaning against the window, I kept staring at him. Technically, I was observing his actions.

"You checking out guys, huh?"

"Huh?" I asked getting embarrassed by the sudden question of Valentino.

"I said you love checking out guys when they are not looking."

"I don't do that."

"You were doing it just now."

"I wasn't."

"You were."

"No."

"A big YES."

I punched his arm hard with all my strength."Hey! What was that for?"

"It was for annoying me,"

"No, I think it was for stating the truth."

"Shut up!" I scolded him.

"What are you both talking about?" Mathew asked beside Valentino.

"I was just telling you how Adira loves to check out guys when they are not looking," Valentino started smirking at me. I pinched his arm making him groan in pain.

"Yeah, I have seen that too." Mathew joined.

"See? It is true. Even Mathew saw you doing it."

"I was NOT checking anyone out. I don't check out anyone. I just zone out while looking at people."

"Yeah, yeah. Of course!" Mathew said with sarcasm feeling his voice. I glared at him and tried to initiate a punch on him but to Valentino's luck, he got it. What? It was not my fault that he was in the middle. I laughed evilly. Mathew joined me. Our laugh died down when we saw the horny couple before us making out. We cringed so damn hard.

"Guys, not before our food. We are trying to eat here." Valentino started groaning. They seemed to not hear him and continued making out.

"We should start making out too. Come Adira, you are the only single one here right now. Give us smooches, baby." He started making me scrunch my face due to disgust.

"In your dreams, dude," I stated. Valentino and Mathew chuckled making some kiss noises.

"You guys should date each other. You are so match made in heaven. " I joked crossing my hands over my chest.

"Yeah, we should look good together. You would be jealous of us for being so romantic with each other. Then you would want to tear us apart. And then, Mathew helps me out here."

Mathew was silent. Our laughing stopped when he didn't talk.

"Hey, dude. Are you okay?" Valentino asked him patting Mathew's shoulder. Mathew looked at him and smiled. "Yeah, never been better. What were we talking about?" He said maintaining a smile.

"Oh, I forgot. What were we talking about, Adira?"

"I forgot too," I said noticing Mathew's expression. I saw Mathew's eyes when he looked at Valentino. His eyes were telling something. His eyes were telling He was in love. He just didn't dare to yell out that he was in love. His eyes were telling that he felt his love is wrong. He was in love with Valentino. I wanted to hug Mathew and tell him that it was not wrong. Love is never wrong. And I did it. I jumped on him passing Valentino. I hugged him tight making him startled.

"It is okay. It is not wrong. Love is never wrong. You are not wrong, love." I whispered. He didn't say anything but hugged me back more tightly.

But was I having some superpowers in reading someone's eyes or was I good at reading people's minds?
