☆ Alexis' POV

I step out in Max's old New York hoddie and my gray sweatpants and sneakers. Noah is waiting for me like he said. He smells me because as soon as I step outside, he lifts his head from his phone.

“Ready? Let's go then” he says and rounds the car

“Ready? Let's go then” he says and rounds the car.

“Wait!” I call out.

He lets go of the car door and looks at me.

“What's wrong?”.

I stroke my hair as it keeps flying in the wind.

“I wanna drive myself” I let out.

He steps away from the car and hands me the keys.

“The luggage you had with you is it the car. Drive safe”.

I eye him suspiciously before plucking the keys out of his hands. He nods and turns away.

“Wait!” I call out again.

He stops and turns.

“What's wrong?” he asks again in the same tone.

What is he doing?!

“I don't trust you. It could be a trap” I tell him. “So you drive”.

He nods.

“As you wish” he says and walks back to me.

He lifts his hand and I step back. Noah arches a brow at me.

“I was just going to ask for the keys” he says.

Keys... right!

“I knew that” I say and drop them in his hands.

“Thank you” he says and just stands there, looking at me.

“What?” I ask, subconsciously running a hand through my hair.

“It still fits” he says.

“What?” I ask again.

“The clothes... it still fits” he repeats. “I couldn't find your Nike's so I just packed your Jordan's... and I'm glad they fit too”.

I just stare at him, confused. Then he clears his throat.

“Shall we?” he asks, turning to hold the door open for me.

“No, no. I got it” I say.

“Okay” he nods and gets in the car.

The ride to the airport is quiet.

“Do you mind if I turn on the radio?” he asks me.

I shrug.

“It's your car” I reply.

He doesn't respond, neither does he turn on the radio. I watch him but his eyes are fixed on the road.
