Kristina craned her head to one side thinking. She really didn't like the idea, her dad wouldn't like Derek to begin with but he was a friend and she wanted to kind of refuse in a way that didn't hurt his feelings. "Yeah, I don't know Dee. Family time is, well, family time. I won't be there the whole break like. There will be plenty of time to hang out when I'm in town," she said and winced thinking that probably wasn't as letting him down as lightly as she had hoped. "I thought you hated the country anyway," she added, though her hometown was really like country, country.<br/><br/>Kristina opened her map app on her phone. The drive seemed to be taking longer than she had expected and with how clingy Derek was acting today, she wondered if he had taken a long route to be with her. It was strange, she had been feeling this urge to be with people all afternoon, and that hug from Derek had only made that worse, but sitting in his car was an absolute, awkward nightmare. She wanted to start asking 'are we there yet?' like an annoying brat.
