Y/N and Scarlett drive in silence, with Scarlett giving directions every few minutes. 

"So what's your name?"

"Why do you want to know my name?"

"Just trying to have a conversation."

"Sorry, the last woman I trusted broke my heart." She turns to look at him noticing how his face hardened when talking about this woman.

"Who was she?"

"That's a bit personal for strangers don't you think?"

"Sorry you're right."

Silence takes over them again as Y/N keeps driving. 

"So what do you do?" Y/N rolls his eyes.

"Why do you want to know so much about me?" 

"Well we have another hour in this car together so might as well talk."

"Or we could sit in silence."

"Okay Mr. Mysterious." Y/N sighs as Scarlett looks out the window. 

After a few minutes of driving an alarm rings out.

"Can you turn that off please?" 

"Sure where is your phone?" 

"In my pocket...." He looks shyly ahead. 

"But if you aren't comfortable with it we can just listen to it go off for the next hour." 

"I'm not listening to that annoying sound for an hour."

She reaches into his pocket grabbing something when she freezes.

"That is not my phone."

"Sorry." They both blush as she pulls his phone from his pocket turning off the alarm.

"Thanks." He says awkwardly.

"No problem."

He reaches over opening the glove compartment rooting around. 

"Where is it?" 

"What are you looking for?" 

"Nothing for you to worry about." 

"Just let me help you."

"Fine, there should be a bottle of pills." He puts his hand back on the steering wheel. 

She looks around before finding them. She hands him the bottle. 

"Thanks." 

"No problem."

He opens the bottle popping two pills into his mouth putting the bottle in the compartment again as he keeps driving. 

Scarlett wants to ask what the pills are for but she doesn't know him and it would be invading his personal space. 

"Can you stop staring at me?"

"Sorry."

He shakes his head disapprovingly which she notices.

"What?"

"You're a married woman yet here you are in my car staring at me. Every damn time." Y/N angrily hits the steering wheel. 

"He drove off with the car that is why I'm here and I'm staring because you are so cold."

Silence over takes them and they choose to not break it. They arrive in Scarlett's driveway and she gets out of the car. Y/N sighs getting out too.

"Wait."

She turns around to look at him. 

"What?"
