Leon and Jon spent several days driving across the northern part of America. It was long and arduous. They often spent their days in motels and would eat in dinner.

Somewhere in Michigan, Leon and Jon were staying in a small trashy motel. They had gone to several places. The only thing they wanted was no bugs.
They had found a place but it had no running water, the drawers were glued shut and there was some kind of brown stain on the floor in the bathroom.

The two girls looked at each other again.
"We don't want to bug you." Said the Brunette.
