"So where are we going for dinner?" I ask Michael, putting down my copy of 'the dice man' the book I was reading,until my stomach began to grumble.
"I didn't know I was staying for dinner" Michael replies
"Well you can if you want to" I would like him to stay with me,but I won't push him into anything he doesn't want to do.
"Do you want me to stay?"
"I would like some company"
"Then I want some fries and a milkshake" he says,tying his shoe lace.
Back in the camper van, we decided on finding a dinner and a shop to buy basic supplies. We find a gas station and pull over. Michael gets out and fills the tank back up,I pass him money to pay for it as well as basic supplies.
"They had no spaghetti hoops,so I got the normal one" Michael informs me as soon as we got in the car, I nod and carry on driving to fine a dinner.
I ordered wedges and a Oreo milkshake, Michael ordered chips and a peanut butter milkshake. Which smelled absolutely amazing, I'm experiencing some food envy.
"So,Dani,where we headed next?" Michael asks between mouthfuls.
"I was thinking about driving for a couple of hours after this,and in a couple of days we might make it to --" I was interrupted by this short blonde girl,who stopped at the end of our booth.
"Hey, by any chance are you driving to Utah?" She ask, her face was red and puffy,she looked exhausted. I looked at Michael and nodded,he nods back.
"Yeah we are" Michael replies "take a seat"
"Oh my god,thank you,I've been walking for ages and my legs hurt so --" this time I interrupt her.
"Your welcome" I offer her some wedges,she declined. We finished eating and paid, after using the toilets.
Once in the camper van,Michael offers to drive and I accept because it feels like I've been driving for a century. This also gives me and the blonde chick time to chat.
"My names Laura,you look like a Sabrina,is that your name?" Sabrina, really?
"No it's Dani, but good guess" I laugh and so does she. Laura reminds me of a cheerleader,happy and chatty but I'm sure she's nice enough.
"So is he...uh... Your boyfriend?" She ask me pointing at Michael.
"Michael. No! he's just hitching a ride off me like you" I clarify, I don't want her thinking I'm dating Michael, he's not my type.
"Oh and Laura, stay with us for as long you want, company has never hurt anyone" Laura was fun to be around so her staying with us would be nice.
"So Laura,what made you leave home" Michael injects into the conversation,nosy much.
"My boyfriend-ex boyfriend-
Kinda got me pregnant,and the family disowned me." You could tell she was still upset.
"Your pregnant?!" I ask, she doesn't seem pregnant.
" no I got an abortion, I'm 18 and not ready for the responsibility."she informs us, Michael says he's sorry and we change the subject to something more light hearted.
