"Well, as long as we're here, know that you're in good hands and we're gonna make some great memories." Thomas grinned. "Think of this as a really bad road trip."
"No, I'm not much of a singer. Entertainment's your job," Thomas laughed. "I can play the piano but not sing."
Violetta wrapped an arm around his waist, chuckling. "I don't care. I want to hear you sing." She said.
((Have you seen Dylan O'Brien singing? XD ))
((Have you seen Dylan O'Brien singing? XD ))
(( i know - its the best *squee* ))
"Fine. I don't know what, though," Thomas replied. "I don't know a great a many songs."
"Fine. I don't know what, though," Thomas replied. "I don't know a great a many songs."
((Lol))
Violetta grinned. "I want you to sing Wannabe by the spice girls." She said, moving in front of him.

"Oh, c'mon!" Thomas protested. "That's- that-" He let up with a sigh. "Sassy hip swinging or not?"
"Okay." Thomas inhaled, preparing himself. He started without a warning.
"Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,
So tell me what you want, what you really really want,
I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,
(*sassy hand motion*)
So tell me what you want, what you really really want,
I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna really really really wanna zigazig ha.
(*sassy hip swing*)
If you want my future forget my past,
If you wanna get with me better make it fast,
Now don't go wasting my precious time,
Get your act together we could be just fine
(*sassy finger snap*)
I'll tell you what I want, what I really really want,
So tell me what you want, what you really really want,
I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna, I wanna really really really wanna zigazig ha."

Violetta barked out in laughter. "Oh my god. I can't believe you actually did that." She said, leaning her back against the car. "Is it possible if I love you more now?"
"Yes and no?" Thomas replied, giving her a kiss. "I'm gratified to know you love me more but also wondering how there was room to love me more."
Violetta chuckled. "I had to get rid of my love for a few famous people." She joked, kissing him back softly
"Hah, as if I'm not famous," Thomas told her. "Four people know me already."
Violetta laughed softly. "Make that five. I'm sure you have some admirer around somewhere." She teased
"You mean myself?" Thomas joked.
"Again, I think there's only you and I on that spectrum," Thomas replied with a smile.
Violetta pouted, kissing him softly. "If only you knew, Love. If only you knew." She said, wrapping her arms around his waist.
"At least reassure yourself with the fact that there will never be any other besides me. And you," Thomas told her with a wink.
"I think Seven's more in the bloodthirsty part of things but I do agree that we're already indeed incredibly cute." Thomas kissed her before sitting down in the pilot's chair. "Care to be my copilot, love?" he asked.
"I'd prefer for us to both be copilots. Then we wouldn't have one person in a position of power," Thomas told her, kissing her on the cheek.
Violetta chuckled. "You sure are really the full package. But you can be pilot, love." She said, kissing his cheek softly.
"If you insist," Thomas replied with a smile. "And we're... off!" The hover car shot off at a rapid pace, pushing the passengers back in their seats, before settling into its own pace.
Violetta laughed softly, fixing her hair since it went all over her face. "You know exactly where it is?" She asked, looking at him
"Yeah. Didn't I drive people around before? And also I have a map. A sweet map," Thomas told her with a chuckle.
"Though I may have forgotten how to read a map in my time away so I think you'll need to help me navigate," Thomas teased.
Violetta laughed softly, looking over at him. "Are you sure it isn't that you just want to hear my beatiful voice?" She joked.
"That too," Thomas replied with a wink. "But I was hoping you hadn't guessed."
Violetta laughed, blushing slightly. "You sure you want me to give the directions? Because I can get a little too aggressive when you don't turn as I say." She joked.
"I don't mind a little aggressiveness," Thomas responded, totally serious. "And seriously, I'm gonna need directions. I haven't been here in a long time."
Violetta smiled slightly, pulling out a map from the compartment. "It's Isn't far. You just need to go straight ahead for a three miles. Then, we have to drop off the ship around a block away from where we're going. After that, we just go on foot." She said, furrowing her eyebrows slightly as she talked.
"I guess that's the romantic walk we've never had," Thomas told her with a wink, bumping her shoulder. "Okay, we'll be there in around ten minutes."
"I can't help but wonder how Seven and Eric are getting along. Best friends forever, right?" Thomas joked.
"Yeah, must be having a blast." Violetta replied, but couldn't help feeling like something was wrong. "Can I ask you something? About how you guys escaped from Luna?" She asked, looking at him.
"Oh. Well, there's not much to say. Seven used to be a thamaturage for the queen and I was a shell, so we both had a reason to run." Thomas paused, reminiscing over bad memories. "She was originally forced by the queen to do something... rather nasty. It broke her to have her mind controlled. She ran and found the holding place for the shells and basically... that was it. I had an interest in piloting since I was a kid. I was the perfect pick. Then she disappeared for a few and I guess she joined the rebellion later, cause she came back and got me to join and from there we became pretty good friends."
"Thomas?" Violetta asked, looking at him. She took his hand, knowing it was depressing to hear how shells like him we're treated. "You do know your perfect to me, with or without powers?" She added, kissing the back of his hand.
"I know," Thomas told her softly, keeping his eyes on the view ahead. "I just have trouble knowing I don't have the powers to protect you."
Violetta straightened. "I am a big girl, love. I don't need you to protect me." She teased. "Besides, your already my Knight in shinning armor, since day one."
"Sweet of you to say," Thomas replied with a slight smile. The thought still bothered him, though.
"I mean it. You may not have the powers I do, but have you thought maybe thats a good thing?" She asked, looking at him.
"What good are thoughts in a fight?" Thomas asked softly.
"For one, you can actually see what's really and not real. Say for example, we make an illusion of a bomb. In the room, you'd be the only one to know it isn't actually a real bomb, but a simple piece of paper." She said.
"And who'd listen to me? One out of many in a crowded room, no one would care about what I'd have to say," Thomas replied. "I'm just a shell, and simply my title carries a bad name. No one would listen to it."
