They are a bit evasive.

"There's a dirt road about four miles outside town, so you can just drop us in town." Helen spoke up, her voice crisp.

"Oh no, not in this weather. Honey, we've got the time, right?" Kaila looked at me expectantly. I looked at the rain and nodded.

"Oh, that'd be real nice of you." Charlotte gushed.

"Unless you expect us to pay, in which case you can let us out right here." Helen's voice took on an icy tone.

"No, of course not." Kaila ignored the tone and continued. "Too bad about the rain, this could have been a real romantic walk."

"That was the plan actually," Charlotte nodded. "We figured on taking a day or two to hike down."

"Only the rain kinda caught us unprepared." Helen spoke up, the chill tone suddenly gone from her voice.

"No tent?" Kaila asked incredulously.

"Naah, we've got these real nice down bags that zip togethah." Charlotte explained. "I thought we could lie out undah the stahs..."

"I still can't believe those assholes." Helen broke in.

"What?" Asked Kaila, unclear on the subject change.

"Oh, about half an hour before you picked us up, some guys in a blue Honda offered us a lift for "The usual,"" Helen raised her fingers and made quotes in the air with them.

"Ass, grass, or gas." Charlotte groaned, pulling the floppy hat from her head again. "You know, this just ain't comfortable wet."

"Warned ya." Helen smirked. "So anyway, I offered em twenty bucks and a few pennies for gas, and the guy says, "oh no, we've already got a full tank.""

"So, Ah explain that Ah've got a full ounce of pot in mah bag, but I cain't get it out while mah bag's wet." Charlotte grinned.

"Totally lying of course." Helen chimed in.

"Raaht, so he says, "oh well, how bout a blow job."" Charlotte lowered her voice as she spoke the male lines, "And Ah just pushed back from the cah and started walkin'."

"She did too." Helen laughed. "And the guys roll after us, calling us stupid names and saying that we owe them for stopping, until they see we're walking past a puddle, and just soak us by driving through it as fast as they can."

"Total asshole," My wife concurred. "Hey, I think we've got a couple towels in one of the bags." She gestured to the pieces of luggage we had earlier placed in the bus. "If you two want to get dry, before we drop you back in the rain, I'll make sure Brent keeps his eyes on the road." Kaila finished the statement by giving me a look that could freeze the bay.
