Heart of the Cure

Chapter Twenty Five: Pennsylvania

The road was bumpy and the sky was cloudy. Jimin watched as the car drove out of Boston. They passed by so many buildings and houses with overgrown plants and moss. Cars stood still in the middle of the road, making them go around. Hours passed, everyone was getting tired of constantly sitting down. "Are we there yet?!" Katie yelled with exhaustion. "No, I already told you about an hour ago. We have a good few hours or so left." Kara responded from the passenger seat. Katie sighed loudly and slouched on her seat, head leaning towards Jimin's shoulder.

"I'm going to die of boredom." Jimin chuckled and shook his head "Don't worry, we'll be there soon." Jay scoffed at Jimin's words, making him frown. Jimin was too tired to let Jay's passive aggression pass. "Do you have a problem with me?" "As a matter of fact, I do. I don't like that I'm so close to you. You can turn any minute and infect all of us. Your constant know it all face also looks revolting." Jimin tsked and turned his head to look out of the window again, deciding to leave the conversation be. "Cowering again, what a disappointment." "Now you listen here, I'm tired of all your bullshit!" "My bullshit?! Excuse me if I don't kneel at the holy savior Virus!"

"Boy's that's enough!" Both Jay and Jimin turned to Louis when he yelled, turning his body to look at them. "I know you're all tired but we can't be fighting with each other." "Tell this asshole that-" "Fuck you!" "Enough!!" Kara yelled this time. "Jesus Christ, why the hell did I get stuck with these brats. Either the two of you behave or the two of you will walk to Pennsylvania, together." Jimin and Jay turned away from each other. Both with frowns on their faces.

"Kate, keep an eye on them." Kara said to Katie who was sitting in between Jimin and Jay. she nodded as she placed her hand on Jimin's shoulder, smiling at him when he looked at her. He smiled back before turning back towards the window.

Jimin opened his eyes, blinking the sleep out of them. He didn't realize when he fell asleep but apparently he did. He looked up at the window and widened his eyes. They were on a dirt road, loads of trees all around them. He looked over at Louis and the others and saw them all sleeping except for Kara, who was now driving. "Where are we?" Jimin asked once Kara looked at him from the rearview mirror. "New Jersey, we'll be in Pennsylvania's borders in a few minutes." She responded without looking at him.

He yawned and stretched his back, making it pop. He groaned at the pain he felt. "How long has it been since I fell asleep?" Jimin asked when the silence was deafening. "About six hours." Jimin widened his eyes "Six hours?! I'm sorry." "Don't sweat it, it's okay. You were tired, just like everyone else." Jimin looked at the others and saw them all peacefully sleeping on their seats. He then turned back and frowned at Kara "How about you? Aren't you tired?" Kara took a quiet breath of air before she shook her head. "I'll be fine."
