Exploring love

Chapter 3 Colbys POV

"Shit Shit Shit" Sam mutters under his breath. We were currently on our way to an abounded Six Flags when our car decided to overheat.

"Dude, none of us know how to fix this." I point out unhelpfully.

Cars behind us are getting annoyed now and have started blasting their horns.

"We're gonna have to push it Colby."

"What? Two people push a whole car?" I almost laugh.

"People will get out their car and help us. Anything to get moving again. The traffic is standstill."

"You're right." I say and slowly open the car door and step out into the sunlight.

It's boiling. That's the only word for it. I can immediately feel my back start to sweat and my face go slightly red. And it's only going to get worse.

Me and Sam set to work on moving the car and sure enough, people start to help us.

After around 5 minutes we decide to take a 30 second break or we will ALL collapse.

That's when she comes.

A brunette haired girl saunters over and offers to help us push the car.

I immediately try my trick. Staring her down. Most look away.

But not her, her eyes don't ever glance away for even a second. I think I've found my match as even I'm starting to get a bit uncomfortable from this.

Sam notices and slaps the back of my head. "Come on, he says, "this car won't push itself!"

Finally we manage to move the car enough to clear the road and let the other cars get past.

Me and Sam go round thanking everyone for their help, including the girl.

"Thank you for helping. I'm Sam and this is Colby." Sam says glancing his head between her and me.

"Anastasia" She smiles.

Anastasia.

She goes to walk away and I want to call out to her, stop her, but I don't. I can't.

I sigh and get back into the car.

Suddenly I hear a voice shouting my name. I raise my head and see her shout out, "Hey Colby, I won."

I laugh and get into the car once again.

But that was it. I'm not going to see her again. It was a motorway flirt if you can even call it that.

"Bro, you alright?" Sam knows but he also knows I'm not gonna talk about it.

Even if she seems different.....

I turn the radio on and we carry on driving in silence.
