He popped the pills in his mouth, followed by a swig of coke. He swallowed wrong and the bubbles forced a cough and the glare in the rearview mirror of Big Joe.
Come on James he thought.
He took another swig of coke. Calming down, he became too aware of how the car sounded on the highway. Was one of the wheels flat? Or were they wide or something. Is that why there was so much noise. He looked, and other cars weren't looking at them.
"What are these?"
"The tires?" Big Joe replied. "They can't be shot out, apparently, he looked at the driver and they both exchanged looks.
"The pills I was more concerned with."
"One should calm you down, and the other keep you focused. Their all prescription so don't worry."
James thought his hands were red and tingly, but maybe that was something else.
He felt his face redden.
"You good back there?" Big Joe asked this time looking back, although he couldn't turn all the way back in his seat. "We got about an hour to go, gives us enough time for it all to kick in. We gotta be fast. Lethal."
James looked down at his hands then the highway.
North he thought was weird, there wasn't anything there.
