We hadnt been on the road for more then a couple of hours. My mind wouldnt shut up long enough for me to fall asleep. We pulled up into a motel parking lot and the got guys out. Mumbling about how they would pay for the rooms while we stayed in the car. I felt relief wash through me the moment they left. I quickly shook Sorrow's shoulder foughly trying to awaken her.
"Sorrow come on wake up." i groaned. I was extremely axious and i didnt want to have to be them longer then i had to. She made a sound that resembled a cow dying. I laughed after my failed attempts at holding them in.
"Ember."
"Sorrow!" i mimicked her perfecly. Turning she shot me an evil look and i shed back a bit.
"Well someone's grumpy." I said in my best baby voice. She rolled her eyes and swatted my hand away when i made the move to shake her again. Huffing under my breath i got out of the car and waited for her to follow suit.After a few grouly minutes she came out and flicked her hair off her shoulder.
"Diva." I said soft enough to where she wouldnt hear. Rubbing my hands together to keep them from freezing off. I turned my gaze to her already mapping out our surroundings with her eyes. While she did this i watched for any signs of the boys coming back.
"Okay so we could take their car considering they were stupid enough to leave the eys in the ignition and cross the border into mew jersey or we could hitch hike again." I gave a look and she grinned.
"Taking the car it is. How about you go ask them for some money before we hit the road." Sorrow asked me as she hopped in the driver's seat. I threw my hands in the air.
"Are you freaking kidding me?" I whined. It's bad enough in I already distrusted them, now i have to go and be sweet.
"How exactly am i suppose to do that?" I asked with a hint of steel in my voice.
"Just go up to Xavier and bat those pretty bright blue eyes at him."
"So you want me to seduce a guy i hardly know into giving me money." she grinned.
"Pretty much."
"You are so going to be left on the side of the road when you fall asleep again." I said as i slammed the car door shut and went in search of Xavier. I found them standing at the front desk whispering in low voices. I decided i did not want it know what they were talking about so i cleared my throat and they both jumped. Xavier's face broke out into a huge smile and he motioned me over.
"Ember dear whats wrong." Matt asked me with a bored tone. He could hardly care less at the moment.
"hmm? Oh well i noticed that we passed a gas station a few miled back and Sorrow and I were wondering if we could get some moeny for some snacks and drinks?" I asked hopefully jutting my lower lip out to emphansize it a bit. Xavier chuckled and drew his wallet from the back pocket of his jeans. He pulled a couple of twenty dollar bills and handed them over.
"Knock yourselves out." He told me. I smiled and hugged him quickly shuddering in my head. Xavier's arms wrapped around me and we stayed like that for a few minutes.I finally pulled back and raced out of the building and into the awaiting car.
"Took you long enough." Sorrow mumbled as she pulled out going the completely opposite direction then what we told the boys. I laughed liking that i was able to trick someone that had alterior motives in the back of their minds. We had been driving for a while now and it was starting to brighten up a bit. I had switched to driving while Sorrow napped. My mind was off racing when i noticed that a car had been following us quit some time now. Frowing i sped up and the car kept pace wth us. We had passed under a few trees whose shadows blocked the light allowing me access to see whom it was that was following us. My eart dropped in my stomach and i gasped loudly.
"NO!" Their mouth stretched out into a wicked grin when they noticed my horrified expression.
