"So, what is the plan today?" Lisa asked.
"Why do you always have to have a plan?" Chloe asked, letting out a big yawn. She streched, and back popped in several places.
"Because, I do. Now help me get this tent down." She said. Chloe walked over and helped her take it down. They ran into a problem when they couldn't figure out how to role up the tent and get everything back into the bag. After several attempts at trying Chloe threw down the stakes she was holding.
"WHERE are the guys?" She asked.
"Arguning in the car." Lisa answered.
"What?" Chloe asked, and looked around. Sure enough Johnny and Chris were in the car arguing.



"This trip is suposed to be fun!" Johnny shouted.
"I know! Then maybe next time you shouldn't make me sleep in the same tent as Chloe!" Chris yelled back.
"Oh come in! It's not that bad." He said.
"Not that bad? She's my ex Johnny. My ex that I still love!" He said, before he could stop himself.
"What?" Johnny asked.
"Nothing." Chris said.
"I'm sorry." Johnny said.
"It's fine. Forget I said that." Chris told him.
"Well, why did you have to come sleep in the car?" Johnny asked.
"Why do you think?" Chris asked. Johnny looked at him confused.
"I don't know." Johnny finaly said. Chris started laughing, and pointed to his crotch. Johnny started laughign histaricaly when he realized what Chris was talking about.
"DUDE! I'm so sorry!" Johnny managed to get out between bouts of laughter. After the two friends made up they went out to rescue the girls from the tents.

"About time!" Chloe shouted. Her and Lisa about had it with the tents. The guys just laughed and told them to sit down while they packed it up.

"I'm starving." Lisa said.
"And I want a shower." Chloe added.
"I know." Johnny said, loading the last two things in the car.
"Chris is going to drive, and we can stop at a truck stop. I saw it listed on the map." Johnny told them. Chris walked back from the bathrooms.
"Ready?" He asked.
"I've been ready since we stopped last night." Chloe said, sounding ruder then she had intended. She wasn't mad at him, but she felt bad he had to sleep in the car. Then she was angry at herself for feeling bad for Chris.

They all piled in the car and rode in silence for about an hour until Chris pulled into the giant truck stop.
"Truk Mart" how imaginative." Lisa said getting out. Both her and Chloe looked less then excited to be there. But, they were hungry and desperatly wanted to clean up a little.
"We'll get a table, you girls go freshen up." Johnny said, and the four split paths.

"So, what happened last night?" Lisa asked Chloe after she rinsed her face.
"I don't want to talk about it." Chloe answered, and pulled her shirt off. She dug around in her bag until she found a clean shirt, and put it on.
"You just half stripped in a truck stop bathroom." Lisa said.
"So, no one came in." Chloe told her. Lisa pulled her shirt off, and then a woman walked in, took no notice of her and went right into one of the stalls. The girls both started laughing! When they were done the went to go find the guys. The truck stop was big though, so they had trouble figuring out where the restaurant was.

"What is taking the girls so long? I'm ready to order." Johnny complained.
"They are girls, give them a minute. Chloe takes forever to get ready." Chris said. Johnny just sighed and looked back down at his menu.

"Excuse me, Sir?" Chloe asked a man that was walking by. I looked fifty and had long stringy white hair. He was wearing a plaid flannel shirt, red suspenders and khaki shortes. Which he tastlessly paired with hiking boots and old white socks that went up to his knees.
"Get lost." He grumbled.
"I just need to know where the rest-"
"GET LOST BITCH!" He shouted. That was one the girls realized he was crazy. They jumped and ran in the opposite direction.
"Okay, lesson number two." Chloe said.
"Don't talk to strangers at truck stops?" Lisa asked.
"Exactly." Chloe said, and the started laughing.
"Hey! There it is!" Lisa shouted, and pointed at the restaurant.
