"Blow a kiss!! Fire a gun! All we need is somebody to lean on! A! O! A! O!" Justin was singing on top of his voice. It woke me up and I realized that we were on a bumpy road.

I hate it when songs wake me up "Seriously Justin? Who told you that you can sing well that you are singing this loud?!"

"Ann told me that I have a good voice"

"Ugh! That doesn't mean you wake someone up with your singing!"

He smiled "sorry Chloe! I was getting bored of driving. Can you drive now? We are just two hours away"

"Fine I'll drive."

"Not now, wait. Let's get off this road. Thank god the tyre is safe" and as soon as he said this the car slowed down and it stopped. In between nowhere. We got down and our car broke down. I smiled, sarcastically "Nice! Can I drive now?"

"No, you can push the car now"

I put up a lame face "seriously?" he was serious. We pushed it to the corner of the road. We called the agency and they told they could come for help only after 6 am, the next day. It was 8pm now and we had to check in to the hotel at 11pm.

Justin called up people to make the arrangements and I tired stopping some vehicles. No one did. Obviously, because it was a highway.

"Justin, lets sleep inside the car. There is no option"

His face had the largest question mark "food!?"

"I guess I have a packet of chips and chocolates or something. It will work for tonight"
"we could have taken the flight Chloe. I told you! Didn't you want this road trip?"

"Yes I wanted it. Done?! I'm sorry. Now eat if you want or stay"

"Why are you shouting now?"

"Nothing! Now don't fight. Just get inside the car"

He was pissed. He got in, ate a little and slept. I got down the car. I was looking out at the stars. It was cold. I was rubbing my hands for warmth. But then, Justin came out and put his coat around me. It was warmer.

He wanted to know something "Can I ask you something?"

"Yeah."

"Is it because of your fear of fire and water that you didn't want to take the flight?"

"Brother died because of a flight crash. And I'm always scared of flights. This road trip would save one flight."

"Don't worry. It was his fate. Now I'm with you and nothing can go wrong"

I smiled "this went wrong"
"this is our fate"

"Oh ok. So let's get in and get some sleep. And please don't sing!"

He giggled "yeah ok."

Morning when I woke up our car was almost ready and Justin was speaking to the guy who fixed our car.

"Chloe! The Car is ready"

"Great! Now I'm driving and I'm singing"

"I hope you sing better than I do or I have cotton plugs ready"

"You will get to know soon."

And we got into the car and Justin screamed with excitement "Amsterdam, here we come!"
