Small Japanese Sedan #1
A small Japanese sedan pulls over on a lonely road. The girl driving glances furtively at the boy in the passenger seat. The boy puts his cup in the cup holder. It’s really not quite like in the movies, this whole pulling over on a lonely road thing, he comments. The girl sighs and admits that she wishes she didn’t have damn bucket seats. He stares out the window, unsure. She laughs and pulls him toward her and they kiss. A car passes, and they draw quickly apart.
“Do you want to go?”
He nods, “I feel dirty.”
She starts the car. Pulling onto the road, she mutters, “Me too.”
