The highway! Duh!

I don’t know. That jerk. Obviously, I want to go on the highway. I want to go fast. Real fast. But use your brain, Jen. There are a lot of people on the highway. He’s put me in a situation where I can drive this amazing car, but at the same time, the only way to really experience it is to take a huge risk.

He knows exactly the situation he’s putting me in. But I don’t care.

“To the highway,” I say with a grin.

I rationalize it. I’ve been doing that a lot, lately. It will be hard to see me at night unless we’re at a stop light, so I’m sure the highway is fine.

“I thought you might say that,” Josh says.

Josh opens the door for me and puts a towel on the seat. He suddenly reminds me of the fact that I’m standing butt naked outside, and I jump in the driver’s seat with haste. I hear Josh getting in on the other side and I jam the keys into the ignition. The dashboard lights up with what feels like information overload. This, I think, is a supercar. Amazing. This is so cool.

I start to back out of the driveway, but Josh stops me.
