The Runaways

The Runaways: Chp 8: New State New Ride

Olivia's P.O.V

After driving another mile, we finally arrived at the borders crossing. Me & Jacob had switched seats, so he could sleep. We didn't have any money. . . But we did have brains and each other. I nudged Jacob slightly and he woke up from his nap. He was never really a deep sleeper. He rubbed his eyes and looked out the window.

"how are we going to get across border lines, without money ?" I asked getting nervous. This time, I had no clue what to do. Jacob got out from his seat and looked through the back windows of the van. "I have a plan" he said. I walked to the back of the van with him, "you see that truck behind us.?" he asked pointing to a old rusty truck behind us. "yeah...why?" I asked. He looked at me and handed me a mirror, "I need you to get dressed up and seduce that truck driver behind us, so that we can pass through the crossing". I looked at him as if he killed someone..."do you want to get to Las Vegas or not..?" he asked, getting louder. I pushed him out the way and changed into something more sexy. He handed me the rope, as I rolled my eyes. "you owe me big time". Jacob laughed and watched our plan fall into place, through the back. My shorts were so small my ass cheeks were about to damn near fall out. I fixed my belly shirt , and strapped my stilletoe heels up . I swear if this doesnt work I'm killing Jacob. 

 I walked out our van, my black heels click against the cement. The truck drivers were listening to music extremely loud. I can't believe I was doing this . . . I banged my fist hard against their windows, until they finally turned around.

Truck driver: "why hello there" he said looking at me up & down, licking his lips. I smiled nervously and twirled strings of my hair. "I'm doing just fine, you boys think you can help me with something.?" I said seductively. They looked at each other with excitement, and shook their heads yes. I giggled, "okay so all you have to do is tie this rope under your car and connect it to mines". They looked at me in confusion, as I continued. "then you drive me and my brother until we say stop". The driver laughed, "I think not so young lady you mine as well get to steppin cuz' we aint doin it", he said rubbing his mustache. I pulled my blade out and put it to his throat, "if you don't do this I will slit your throat and make it look like it was your friends fault". Me and Jacob sat in the backseat of the truck drivers truck. It was silent for a moment, until I spoke up. "I can't believe were doing this" I admitted. He looked over at me and smiled, "I'm glad were doing this...this is the most fun I've had my entire life". He smiled at me and bit down on his lips. I looked out the window and saw the officers checking everyones cars who were also trying to pass through the crossing. The officers spoke with the truck driversand the truck began moving. As we got further into the freeway, we finally pulled over. The truck drivers looked in their backseat, "alrighty now, get the hell out of my truck!".

I did an evil grin, "thank you so much yall wont regret it". We unconnected the rope and got back into our van. A few hours into the ride me and Jacob switched seats, this time he was driving. I put my feet on the airbag, and leaned my chair back. A few moments I felt my feet being knocked down. Jacob chuckled to himself. I rolled my eyes but couldnt help but to chuckle too. Moments passed and I felt my feet being knocked off again, "Jacob stop !". I rolled my eyes and put my feet back on the airbag, and soon enough they were knocked off again. I gave Jacob a dirty look and he laughed at me. When we were younger he was always a pest. Suddenly the van began to move very slowly. Me and Jacob looked at each other oddly, as he stopped the car, pulling over to the side of the road. He unbuckled and got out of the van. I unbuckleand leaned closer, just to get a better look. A few minutes later Jake came back in and sat down quietly. 

"um hello.. what's wrong with the van..?" I asked worridly

" oh we ran out of gas"

Sudden fear flooded over me, what if his parents found out where we were? I looked over at him anxiety, "so what are we gonna do..?", I asked with my body half shaking. He ran his fingers through his soft curls trying his hardest to figure out what to do. I waited for a response until he spoke..."we gonna push this van"

Jacobs P.O.V

Livia stared at me blankly to my response. Honestly.... I didn't know what to do. I was starting to question if this whole "run away" thing was me... but I couldn't tell Livia that she would hate me. I couldn't let her down. I hesitantly touched her face, "it shouldn't be that hard". I opened the door and began pushing the van. Soon enough she was right there by me. I smiled.. "thanks" . She smiled back at me, showing her purly white..."well get through this together".

It was silent for a moment, all you heard were our heavy breaths from pushing the van

"you don't have to be beautiful...to turn me on" She sung quietly.

I looked over at her and did a odd look."I just need your body baby . . from dust til dawn . . don't need experience . . to turn me out . . just leave it all up to me. . . I'm gonna show you what its all about.." she continued singing.

Know I knew what she was doing. Olivia knew how much I use to love Prince. We use to listen to this song in my room all the time. The music would blast so loud, my mom would bang on the door and tell us to turn it down. I wonder how my mom is. . .any way. I bit down on my lip and began to sing along.

"you don't have to be rich to be my girl" I sung along playfully.

She looked over at me and giggled."you don't have to be cool to rule my rule" She sung louder and I began to chuckle

"aint no particular sign I'm compatible with" I sung waving my index finger at her. She covered her mouth, but then we sung together loudly. "I JUST WANT YOUR EXTRA TIME AND YOUR.....KISS !". We made kissy faces at each other and laughed so hard our stomachs began to hurt. We continued pushing the van and singing multiple Prince songs. The road was long, but at least we had each other.

One hour later . . still pushing the van

Suddenly I saw something rectangular up the road. That almost appeared to be a . . gas station! I tapped her multiple times "WHAT ? !"  she said slightly annoyed. I ignored her comment, "come on we have to push, I think I see a gas station!". She got up quickly, and we began pushing the van. We ran and ran almost tipping our van off of the road. As we got closer, I was right. . .it was a gas station. We pushed our van by one of the pumps, even though we were broke. Olivia went into the van and grabbed a empty bag.

"We have to eat right?". I nodded my head, as she walked in. What was this girl going to do now? I leaned against the van, and began scanning the parking lot. Something had caught my eye. A Mercedes Benz Convertible sat behind the store. I got up to get a closer look. The keys were still in the ignition ! What idiot leaves the keys in the ignition? Closely looking around, I popped open the convertibles trunk. I had to think like a boss while doing this. I opened the vans back doors, grabbed all our bags and clothes, then placed then it into the trunk. Olivia had came out the store just in time with a basket full of different types of food. I grabbed her hand and we ran quickly into the convertible. My foot shoved down on the gas pedal, making both of our bodies jerk back. What did I just do ? A wave of anxiety, yet excitement took over me. I felt like a man. . .I felt like a boss. I just stole a car. So what does this make me now ?
