Road Trips (A Lucaya Story)

Fix You

⚠Rules: You must listen to the song above ☝ while reading!⚠

It was midnight and I was waiting for Lucas to arrive. Since he didn't want to lie to his parents on every date we went on, we decided to go on our 2 road trip at night.

I got up from my bed, and walked to where my music box was. My music box was the only thing my father had left me. It was decorated with pictures of rock stars and filled with there CDs, through the years, I had filled the blanks with my own CDs. After going through them for a while I picked X & Y by Coldplay, I trusted Lucas would like it after he aproved Imagine Dragons.

Next I walked towards my drawers and took my fake ID out. After that I grabbed my grey cardigan to throw over my Beatles shirt and my wine colored pants. I also remembered to grab the speakers Shawn gave me for Christmas. Last but not least I grabbed the blanket I'd brought to our first road trip and threw everything into my dark red jansport. A few minutes later I saw Lucas' car parked outside my place. I climbed out the window and got into his black Gol.

"Okay Ranger Rick, I'm fungry so our first stop is the gas station." I said while closing the car's door behind me.
"Fungry?" He asked confused.
"It stands for fucking hungry so get this thing started." He obbeyed and I popped X & Y on the CD player. Lucas nodded to the rythm of the song, which made me guess he liked it.
"Nice taste in music Maya."
"Thanks Huckleberry. You're not bad yourself." He laughed and looked down, a little embarrased.

10 minutes later we stoped at the gas station, he was filling up he's car while I bought some stuff. As soon as he was done he joined me. We bought two beers, and a big bag of chips. I was able to buy the beers with my fake ID.

"Hey is this your boyfriend?" The cashier asked.
"Uh, nope." I said and Lucas stared at me.
"Then you wouldn't mind if I asked for your number, would you doll?" He said flirty.
"Hey, don't talk to her like that. She's a lady, you treat her right asshole." He said while grabbing our bag and exiting the store. I looked at the cashier for a few more seconds but then followed Lucas outside.
"Hey, sundance, what was that about?" I asked, and we both got in the car. He started it and drived away."
"Nothing, I just hate it when dicks like him talk to girls like you like that."
"Girls like me? What's that suposed to mean?"
"You know." He replied fidgeting, "Beautiful, funny." He paused for a few seconds but then said: "Hot."
"Oh so that's what I am to you?" I said smiling and messing with him a little.
"NO! Maya that's not what I ment, I ment that assholes like that, you know, that's what they think, and they want to, um, they speak to you, um, you know they're really disrespectful." I laughed loudly. He spoke so fast I couldn't even get what he was saying.
"Just pull over here Huckleberry." I said. I'd chosen a desert place, pure fields, but it was a great place to have a beer and look at the stars.

We laid the blanket on the grass and I took a cigarette out, Lucas looked a little dissapointed, he hated it when I smoked. But I almost didn't anymore, I smoked about one per week, he had helped a lot, when I was with him, I had nothing that I wanted to forget

I took out the speakers and plugged in my phone and Fix You started playing. He took out the beer and the Lays and I enjoyed every chip killing my hunger.

"Maya, throw away the cigarette." He said.

Lights will guide you home,
And ignite your bones,
And I will try to fix you.

"Huckleberry I-"
"Throw it away." He interrupted. Finally, I obeyed. When I did he grabbed my face and kissed me. "Those are killing you, and I don't want you going anywhere." He said still grabbing my cheeks.
"Okay." Was everything I could reply. He let go of me and looked at the night sky above us.
"I smoke, to forget." I rumbled after a few minutes of silence.
"Huh?" He said looking back at me.
"I smoke to forget. About my dad, about my mom, about Shawn breaking up with her, and sometimes even about Riley and her perfect life." He leaned foward and kissed me softly again.
"But I don't want you forgetting anything." He complained.
"You're such a Huckleberry." I said as we layed down on the blanket and made out in the dark.
