First stop- Rest stop
We had been on the road for who knows how long and everyone had to pee.

The highway seemed to stretch on for forever. Even Daniel-- the mellowest guy I know-- was complaining about the cramped conditions of the back seat and his need to relieve himself.

"I need to visit the lady's room!" I whined to Chris who was driving. "Well hold it. The next rest stop isn't for another 37 miles." I groaned and turned back around to face Keith and Daniel.

"I'm hungry! My stomach is trying to eat itself! If I do not feed it it will devour our souls!" Everyone laughed at Keith's weirdness. He was laying on his back with his feet on the little seat that lined the wall. He tossed a little bouncy ball against the wall as we sped along the highway.

"Eat the snacks I packed." I said looking up from my magazine. He looked at me sheepishly an impish grin on his face. "What?" I questioned skeptically. "I may or may not have eaten all of them while I was driving." Everyone groaned. "God! Keith! We're all starving!" Lucas yelled hitting him with his copy of Romeo and Juliet. I sat there stunned. How could Keith eat a bag of beef jerky, 2 family size bags of chips, candy, a box of granola bars and trail mix?

"37 miles left!" I groaned! "Chris is will dump your butt if I don't get some food!" I know I sound whiny but I'm starving!!!!! "Someone's PMSing." Keith chuckled from his position on the floor.

I threw my pillow at him and he dodged it laughing.

37 miles later we finally pulled into a run down rest stop. We all ran out and Chris stayed back to get gas. "Thank you!" I said sweetly as I pecked Chris on the cheek. I left him as he pumped gas, and I ran into the rest stop. I ran to the back of the store. I pulled open the restroom door and I immediately gagged in my mouth.

The little room smelled like someone has died in there after using the restroom and forgot to flush. The toilet was a disgusting shade of brown and the sink was the same. I lined the toilet and tried my best not to touch it. I relieved myself and washed my hands.

I grabbed my purse and squirted a crazy amount of hand sanitizer onto my hands.

I left the little store and sat in the car until the boys came back. They had bags full of food in their arms and I mentally did my happy dance.

They handed me the bags and I set them down next to me as Chris, Keith and Daniel climbed into the back seat. Lucas started the car and we pulled away.

I started to sift through the bags of food. I handed Lucas a Twix bar and tried to find something for myself. "I want my chips!" Keith called. "No. You are all our original food so you get yours last. What do you want babe?" I asked Chris still smirking at a wounded Keith. "Hershey's bar!" Chris said getting his iPad out of his backpack. I tossed him his chocolate and got a bag of Lays for myself. I tossed Keith a Snickers and he caught it and ate it in 1 bite. I have a severe peanut allergy so I've never tasted a Snickers. I guess they're good because Keith was smiling after the bad disappeared down his throat.

Chris handed me my blue raspberry slushie that he already slurped. I glared at him looking at my half filled slushie cup. He flashed me his blue smile and I laughed. He dove at my slushie and I yanked it away. He frowned like a little puppy. "Please?" he questioned puppy dog pouting. "No." I said flatly smirking at him as I took a sip.

He kissed me and I handed over the cup willingly. Uggggggh Chris. I smiled like a dope as I stared at him sipping my slushie.
