Andrew doesn't speak while he drives. He won't tell me where he's going, or why it's clearly not somewhere he wants to go. The landscape passes by all too quickly- the greens and greys and whites all blur together into one big mess. I lean my head on the window and try my hardest to stop thinking. It doesn't work.
Eventually, the sky turns from grey to a deep purple, and Andrew looks completely spent. I've forgotten before that regular people need sleep on a daily basis. Looking at the clock means nothing to me; I've never used one, or needed one before. There is a long stretch of road with no streetlights, no other cars, and no buildings. The only real noise is the thrum of the road under the tires. I keep my eyes focused on the sky, because this is the first time in nearly seven years I've seen it from outside the basement. The sky itself is a dark, deep purple, littered with stars. It's my favorite thing in the world, aside from the person sitting less than a foot away from me.
((A.N: very short chapter this time; I'll start writing more often though so don't sweat it)
