we drive for like an hour, but it was worth it when we found a bike shack with four dirt bikes in pretty good condition.
R: hey! hey can we rent these?
lady at the counter: for how long?
R: uhhh I don't know... 2 days?
lady at the counter: that'll be........ $500
R: 5what?!?!?!?!
lady at the counter: you didn't think we were giving em out did you?
R: no ma'am. but is there any way we could get a discount? there's four of us!
Lady at the counter: sorry. no discounts. pay or don't.
R: oh. ok.
do we even have that much?!?
we walk off to the side of her shop and pull out our wallets.
Brittaney: I've got $50
Bobby: same.
R: you guys just carry around $50??!?!?!?
Brittaney: yeah our mom makes sure of it. she says its for emergencies, and this seems like one.
R: for sure. I've only got $10 but-
Brittany: its alright. how about you Alex?
A: I grabbed my dad's wallet before we left- so I've got.... $72
Bobby: oh. I really thought we'd have to sell Brittaney.
Brittaney: ew no that lady is NOT my type.
Bobby: thats not what I meant!
R: we still need..... $93 guys.
A: well we can sell something. my watch is worth something-
R: dude no. thats your grandpa's watch!
A: my grandpa is more homophobic than my dad and is in favor of putting me up for adoption. I don't want his stupid watch, I want my stupid boyfriend.
he takes it off his wrist as fast he can, almost to show that he isn't instantly regretting this- which I can tell he is. he loved that watch. he loved his grandparents. I just wanna save my best friends.
R: ok. we'll ask her how much-
Brittaney grabs the watch from Alex and walks to the lady at the desk.
Brittaney: listen. we both know this watch is worth at LEAST 4,000. I wanna sell it to you for the bikes.
Lady at the counter: 3,500 is the highest I'm taking for this.
Brittaney: c'mon . i wanna be able to eat on our trip. and we both know this is worth 4,000
Lady: 3,600
Brittaney: 3,800
Lady: 3,700
Brittaney: 3,900
Lady: 3,750. best offer.
Brittany: I don't know...
Lady: going....
Brittaney: hmmmm
Lady: going...
Brittaney: fine! so you owe us $3250 and 4 dirt bikes.
Lady: huh?
