    As I arrive, I find Adam walking toward me. Before I open my mouth to argue, he holds up a finger, gesturing to me to be quiet.
    
    "You're stubborn, naive, and a pain in the ass. But I'm not letting you go on the subway with strangers who smell awfully bad," he says.
    
    "You're a stranger, too!" I state out and cross my arms. "What's the difference?" I ask.

    "I'll give you your keys back," he says as he raises his eyebrow, waiting for me to reply.
    
    "Fine." I storm by him and slam the car door shut.All Rights Reserved
