california here we go (sequel to gas)

chapter four

"there! there!" shania said frantically tapping on gus's shoulder. he rolled his eyes.

"alright, alright.. im going." he said, an hour of nonstop nagging about peeing had driven him over the edge.

they pulled into the gas station and shania practically jumped out of the vehicle as it was moving.

"i'll see you in a bit, okay?" she kissed his cheek and opened the door. he nodded his head.

she headed towards the gas station. it was really small, it almost looked crowded (with too much stuff). she opened the door, and immediately scanned for a restroom. she sighed in relief when she saw the sign in the bottom left corner of the gas station. she practically skipped in the direction of the bathroom.

as she reached for the handle of the restroom, a woman burst out.

"SORRY" the woman said running quickly out of the gas station.

shania was frozen. she felt a breeze pass her by as she stood there. she could recognize that voice anywhere, it was her.

"hey!" she shouted as she ran towards the other woman.

she ran out of the store and she saw the woman hurriedly try to jam her keys into the car.

"fuck!" she cursed really loudly. she looked up at shania and made eye contact.

"SHIT SHIT SHIT" she finally had managed to open the car and turned it on.

"HOLY FUCKING SHIT! NATALIE????"

natalie backed up in her driving spot, she managed to exit her parking spot. as she attempted to move forward, she couldnt, shania stood in front of her car.

shania moved towards the driver's window. she motioned for natalie to roll down the window.

"youre not going anywhere, youve got a lot of shit to explain."

"shania whats going on?" gus said grabbing one of her arms from where they were leaning against natalies car.

she looked back and saw his face of realization.

"oh..." he said awkwardly.

"yeah.." natalie awkwardly laughed.

"soooo.. you guys.." she stalled.

"how have things been??" she asked.
