The Road That Leads to Us (Us 1) - Page 37

“Are you sure?” I turned around and made like I was going to head into the office. “I think I need to ask her a question.”

I didn’t make it more than two steps when Dean swept me up into his arms and over his shoulder.

“Ahhh!” I screamed.

“You’re crazy if you think I’m letting you go back in there.” He carried me over to the car and dumped me

into the seat.

I felt a bit lightheaded but it was too funny for me to be mad.

Dean then proceeded to buckle me in and held his hand out in a stop motion. “Stay,” he ordered.

“I’m not a dog, Dean.”

“Well, you could use some obedience training,” he quipped.

“Asshole,” I muttered, but I didn’t really mean it and he knew it.

He slid into the car and grinned at me when he started the engine. “Day two of Dean and Willow’s Epic Road Trip starts now.”

I grinned. “You’ve named our road trip?”

“Of course,” he looked both ways before beginning to back out, “everyone knows you have to name it.”

“Why is it epic? It might be a total fail,” I countered.

“Ah, but this is us we’re talking about here. We’re already so epically amazing that this road trip could never be a failure.”

“I like it,” I admitted.

“Good.” He grinned. “Now let’s get some breakfast. I’m starving.”

I couldn’t even be surprised.

We stopped a few miles down the road and went through the McDonald’s Drive-Thru because Dean wanted to eat while he drove.

I handed him his greasy heart attack inducing breakfast sandwich.

“Enjoy your clogged arteries.”

He chuckled. “Oh, I will.”

He proceeded to take an exaggerated bite, gulping down nearly half of the sausage biscuit in one bite.

I tried to hide my disgust.

I really did.

Okay, I totally didn’t, but Dean didn’t care anyway.

I pulled out my own healthier choice—although, healthy and McDonald’s didn’t really go together—and took a much smaller bite.

“Aw, look at you eating like a little lady,” he joked, smiling around his food.

“I’m no lady,” I said, a bit peeved, and then took a bigger bite.

He chuckled at my reaction.
