The next day the hotel served a continental breakfast. Various things were wrapped in plastic. Non expired but a lot were almost. Suspiciously so Steve thought. Some of the numbers looked like someone else had printed over, but the blueberry muffin tasted as it should. Each packet of blueberry was...

To  Imogen Howe there was something sinister about love. Like if someone says they love her, they would have to show it. Over and over again, even when it was inconvenient.

One of her friends taught her this a long time ago.

She whispered "Ask us to drive us, and...

Blayne was back at the  Seaside Rest they had cleaned up well. No one really missed them, one guy made fun of them being off at the same time. The kid hadn't returned to work in awhile. Blayne understood. 

The first time he'd went with Danny he couldn't have eaten...

Keith had been silent now for 6 hours. They were in Oregon now, and he still had his headphones on. 

"You think he can hear us? With dem tings on his head."

A speaker changed from the song to scan to the next station. The car is driving east on a desert road.

Jack was still in the back of the truck. A different truck than Blayne’s he wasn’t sure how long he’d been there for. Although his shoulder was ringing with pain. 

He’d been stopped though now for awhile. All though he wasn’t hot. So it must be dark.

"I know you said that." Keith said. Half smiling.

"What the fuck did this pussio say?" BAKA not nice said.
