"Let's go meet the devil." The wind swept across the road as they approached the worn rusted signs that marked where highway 49 crossed Highway 60.

They could have been any band from the sunset strip in the day, only that Jake's oddly light blond hair being natural and not dyed set him apart. They'd left the car on the side of the road as they walked into the crossroads. It was the loneliest place Jake had ever seen. On either side of the road lay what he assumed were cotton or corn fields. But he couldn't tell in the dark.

It's just an old beat up truck Some say that I should trade up Now that I got some jangle in my pocket But what they don't understand Is it's the miles that make a man I wouldn't trade that thing in for a rocket What they don't know is my dad and me We drove her out to Tennessee She's still here, and now he's gone So I hold on It's just an old beat up box Its rusty strings across the top It probably don't look like much to you

With a flawlessly executed shift into drive, Roman Lysander pulled onto the main road and into the traffic. The radio played softly, the music too faint for me to discern. I focused on the passing cityscape, trying to avoid overheating from being so close to Roman. The lights merged, and the life and excitement outside the car became as frenetic as only a city like America could offer.

Eugene groaned, “I told her I’ll handle it. Did she tell you what it’s about?” Now, Andrea became even more interested. “No, but she said you’re upset. You really have to tell me now or I’m just going to pester you until you do so,” she warned her father. Eugene opened the front passenger seat and told her, “Get in then. Let’s go for a drive.” The whole ride to the hidden park that they loved to go to was quiet, except for the music that played inside the car. The vocalist sang, “ And the high road’s steady and steep. And the low road’s easy and deep. Guess I’ll follow my feet.”

If you liked it then you shoulda put a ring on it" I kept humming, the song is stuck in my head and I can't help it "You are enjoying this aren't you," he glared at me.

"Slow down, my head is rotating. I'm gonna puke if you won't slow down." I said after a few minutes into the ride. We are on a deserted road with bushes on either side of us.

"And I've got all that I need, Right here in the passenger seat, Oh, and I can't keep my eyes on the road, Knowing that she's inches from me, We stop to get something to drink, My mind clouds and I can't think, Scared to death to say I love her, Then the moon peeks from the clouds, I hear my heart, it beats so loud, Try to tell her simply, That I've got all that I need, Right here in the passenger seat, Oh, and I can't keep my eyes on the road, Knowing that she's inches from me," I closed my eyes. I can clearly understand the lyrics. He's singing that for me, right?

He hugged her and kissed her and they then hit the road.
