He laid down next to her.

For a moment Kevin imagined pulling Val towards him and holding her ankles far apart while he plowed her.

"Lie next to me," she said sweetly, patting the blanket.

"Uh, sure," he mumbled, snapping out of his fantasy.

"God, it's so great to see the stars again."

Having grown up in the suburbs, he realized he had never seen so many stars let alone appreciate the night sky. They silently laid on the hood of the Mustang until a meteorite flew by overhead and fizzled out quickly.

"Did you see that?" Kevin exclaimed.

"You never seen a shooting star before?"

"No, I'm a city boy, remember?"

"Well, you're suppose to make a wish when you see one!"

"Okay..." Kevin didn't believe in supernatural things like wishes but he didn't think it would hurt just to fantasize about what he desired.

"So? What did you wish for?" Val asked.

"I'm suppose to tell you?"

"How will I know if it will come true or not if you don't tell me?"

He paused, embarrassed at what he had wished for. "Remember what you said earlier about wanting to do something on the hood...?"

"Yeah," she grinned.

"I... I wish to fuck you on the hood of my car," he blurted out.

"God, you're so cute when you're nervous!" Val leaned over and kissed him to ease his anxiety. "Well, your wish is the same as mine!"
