My New Muse (Mild Wattpad Version) (Completed) [SLOWLY BEING EDITED]

23. KFC

Bombo-pussy-rassclaat.

"Famous bowl."

"Combo?"

"Yes, with Pepsi." They must have Pepsi.

"No —"

"Fuck the drink," I say, unable to contain my irritation any longer.

At this point, David's laughter fills the entire car. She tells me my total — $295 — and I thank her.

"Fuck off," I say to him.

He drives around and picks up the food.

"It's not my fault that they're under stocked."

"You're laughing at me."

"You should have waited."

"And you'd still be cooking."

I shove a fork full of food into my mouth, scorching my tastebuds in the process.

"That's... true," he answers.

"So shut up."

The rest of the drive is filled with the sound of me chewing noisily, and David humming under his breath.

"This is the best vacation that I've ever had," I state after letting out a heavy sigh.

We're lying down beside each other in bed. David is naked, because according to him, it's too hot for him to keep his clothes on.

"I feel the same."

"What's the second best?" I ask him curiously, propping myself up on my elbow to get a better view of his face.

He scrunches up his face, then smiles.

"Went to the Wizarding World of Harris Potter last summer, both theme parks. Took the Hogwarts Express."

"Don't you think that if Harry Potter is set in England, the Wizarding World should be in England?" I ask him, lying back onto the bed.

"I think that they should probably set up another one there," he says thoughtfully. "What's your second favourite vacation?" he asks.

I consider the question for a few seconds, then answer.

"When I was with Andrew, we went to Dolphin Cove. It was amazing; dolphins are my favourite animals."

I turn my head to the side to look at him, to find him staring at me with a curious expression.

"What?" I ask.

"You spoke about him."

Shit. I did.

"I... I didn't even realise the significance of it."

"Well, it's pretty fucking significant, if you ask me."

He looks at me as if trying to choose his next words very carefully.
