"Hey pull out the map I wanna see where we are."
"Maybe you could ask nicely and I might." I look at Carolyn with raised eyebrows and a smile.
"Oh dearest moron brother, would you mind pulling out the paper location device and tell me where the fuck we're at?"
"Alright, alright. No reason to be an asshole about it." I pull out the map and start looking to try and find out if I can find out where we're at. We passed a sign about an hour ago that said something about Mississippi so I assume that's where we're at. I start search for and find Mississippi and realize the map's upside down. After flipping it I realize we are in the town of Gulfport due to the stores we seem to be passing. It's a nice place to be honest, just a lot of traffic.
Carolyn stops at a small gas station to fill up the tank again while I look for a motel to stay at while we're here. On the trip over here Carolyn told me that we went on this trip to take a break from home. Mom and dad need a break from us as well, and some alone time.
I go in the store for more snacks and find a container with hot sandwiches so I pick up a couple for sis and I. I see a penny pincher and pick up one to see what kinda stuff happens here. After paying for the sandwiches and gas we get back on the road and I start thumbing through the paper to maybe find a place to stay. I come to a section about cars, four-wheelers, houses and finally the section of random adds. I'm just skimming through it.
After about 15 minutes of circling places that might be a possible stay, I write them down so it'll be easier to find them.
"Well here, let's start with the cheapest ones and work our way up. At least one of these has got to be a good place. The first place is in these apartments."
Carolyn looks at me puzzled, "Apartments? You can't be serious. Every apartment we've ever lived in has been nothing but noise. Can't you find a place that's peace and quiet or in the middle of nowhere?"
You want the middle of nowhere then I'll get you the middle of nowhere. I slide my finger down the paper till I come to the number I was looking for. I saw it earlier, it was cheap and in the middle of nowhere....and not in an apartment.

"Hello?" A girls voice, I shove the phone at Carolyn and show her the paper about what it is.
"Hello, hi. Umm...my name's Carolyn and I'm in town umm...for uhh...a few weeks with my brother. I was calling about your opening room that's for rent for uhh...$75 a week. Is that still open for renting?
"Yes, it surly is. You're more than welcome to come by and take a look at it to make sure it's to your liking before agreeing on anything. Just come by when ever you like." The voice in the phone had a light southern accent. It was quite luring I had to say.
"Thank you, is there anyway we could come by today and take a look at it?" Carolyn tries to sound sweet, but she sounds a bit annoyed.
The lady on the phone starts talking again but I can't really understand what she's saying.
"Alrighty....thank you....you too... bye-bye." She still sounds annoyed. She takes a second and looks at me with an evil eye, "don't ever do that to me again. I wasn't sure what was going on, or who I was talking to!"
I just smile sheepishly at her and she punches me in the arm. I snare at her but I guess I deserved it.

A/N- Sorry, I know this chapter is a bit longer than the other. They are going to vary in size. I'm not keeping a set limit to it. I feel the need to write...I write. Something come to mind I write it.
