We all sit in the car on our way home from McDonals's, were we ate dinner.

"I have the dopest fucking thing that we can do", Travis says, leaning over the backseat to get our attention.

"What is it?"

"Let's go and get some blankets and pillow and sleep in this car by the lake!" He suggests, making me roll my eyes.

"Are you serious?" I ask, thinking that his idea is hilarious.

"Of course I'm serious! It would be fun! Come on, guys!" He continues.

"Okay, let's try. But if it's too cold we're going home", Kevin says, driving to Julia's house to get everything we need to the weird sleepover. Travis cheers while clapping his hands like a five year-old.

"Bro, this will be more uncomfortable than the fucking floor", I mumble, making Billie laugh because she is the only one who knows about my terrible night. What she doesn't know is that I had the worst nightmare of my life, but she would hate herself if I told her that now.

"Okay, who wants to get all the shit that we need?" Kevin asks, looking at us in the backseat. No one answers so I sigh:

"I can do it."

"I'm coming, too!" Billie says almost immediately, making me giggle. Julia throws her house keys to Billie before we step out of the car, walking towards the familiar house. I do wonder why her parents are alway traveling without her, it's pretty rude.

When Billie pushes the keys into the keyhole, I get a flashback from when we were at her apartment and we made that dirty joke. It was fucking hilarious. As we walk inside, I head towards the bedroom to get some blankets and pillows.

"Can you get some shit to eat?" I ask while reaching for a pillow in the closet.

"Sure, but you look like you need some help first", she giggles from the hallway, seeing how I desperately try to reach the yellow pillow. She approaches me and grabs my legs.

"Ready? One, two... three!" She counts down before lifting me up. I grab the pillow, but Billie slips on the floor a bit, making us both loose control. She tries to hold me up but falls down with me landing on her almost immediately afterwards. We roll around on the floor, laughing at our clumsiness before standing up.

"We got the pillow, at least", I laugh, holding it up in triumph.

I then follow Billie to the kitchen, grabbing some soda cans from the fridge and a bag of chips from the bench. I don't even know if we're allowed to take it, but I don't really care. This sleepover is going to be dope!

As Billie locks the door, I walk back to the car with my hands filled with blankets, pillows and snacks.

"Why do I have to carry everything? I'm the youngest one here", I complain.

"I don't care. I'm older than you, I decide", Billie grins before rushing in front of me to the car, making me sigh.

We enter the car again, throwing all the stuff into the backseat before heading towards the lake that's now familiar.

When we stop by the lake it's pretty dark outside and I feel pretty tired already, but we need to be outside for a while before sleeping. I step out and the cold hits me like a truck, making Billie wrap her arm around my shoulder, rubbing my arm.

"You good?" She asks.

"Yeah, just cold", I answer, blowing hot air on my hands before rubbing them together.

"Man, this is too fucking cold", Travis whines, turning around so he's facing all of us before picking up his phone. "It's 9pm, can't we go to the car?"

"Fine", Kevin says, turning around and unlocking it with the car keys. As I sit down in the car, it doesn't even feel so warm and I instantly regret our sleepover. I'm the only one who is not wearing a jacket and I start to shake after a while, rubbing my own arms. No one really seems to notice because they are talking about some funny shit that happened today in school.

"Man, you're gonna turn into an ice cube", Billie says while scooting closer, looking at me.

"Wouldn't surprise me", I chuckle.

"You're not even wearing a jacket, you dumbass! Hold on", she says before reaching after a blanket, wrapping it around my shoulders.

"Thank's", I say, kissing her cheek in appreciation.

"Billie, when were you going on tour?" Travis asks.

"Next week on tuesday I think", she pouts. "For a month."

"Oh, we will miss you a lot", Travis answers, pouting as well.

"I'll miss y'all, too", she says while looking at me. I think that she's wondering if I want to come with her, but I don't have the energy to talk about that now. I lean my head back against the seat, wrapping my blanket tighter around me before pretending to be interested in the others conversation.

The tour. I guess that it would be like that performance I was on before but every single day and I guess that's not a problem, but... it feels like I'm running from everythings that's going on and it doesn't matter what I do, it will still chase me and hunt me down.

Later

Kevin and Julia are sleeping in the backseat with Julia resting her head on Kevin's chest and Kevin holding her protectively. Travis has to sleep in the front seat and it looks really uncomfortable but somehow, he manages to fall asleep anyways. Me and Billie were lucky, we got the whole trunk to sleep in. Sure, the floor is pretty uncomfortable and dirty, but the blankets and pillows make it better.

"Are you awake?" Billie suddenly whispers.

"Nope", I whisper back, grinning.

"You're so funny", she whispers sarcasticly.

"I know right", I answer before staring up in the ceiling. There's a gap between us. A way too big gap.

"I don't want you to leave", I whisper while turning around so I'm facing her.

"Don't think about that now, come here", she pouts while opening her arms for me. I scoot closer and feel myself calming down as I rest my head on her chest, feeling her heartbeat. Her warm body gives me comfort and I feel really safe. She pulls the blanket over us before intertwining our legs and I don't regret this sleepover anymore.
