On the drive there her minivan had been packed with so many people that if the cops pulled them over she would've gotten a ticket.
That had been a fun ride. High sun, blue sky, and the music up loud with the windows down. Half the van took turns being DJ, and the ride was just long enough that everybody who wanted to got to share their songs, while not being too long that people started began drifting off into their own daydreams.
Now the sun was almost gone. At the beginning of her drive back the ruffled red skyline made for drive that made her feel like she was a character in a movie. Like a female
Ryan Gosling
or something. By the time she was out of beach land and back onto country roads the sky had become that dark blue gray.
The music was off. In her an urge to smoke a
cigarette
just strong enough to notice and fantasize a
Camel
in her mouth and fingers while not having to actually smoke one. She would smoke later. It was only 12 minutes until she would be home. She wished she lived further. Soon she would tell her dad she wasn't going to go through with the plan.
