Candy
Mia and mike leave and we're left alone.

He clears his throat. "You look beautiful."

I clear mine. "Bite me." I purse my lips.

He turns giving me a sympathetic look. "Candy I'm -"

"You know what? Save it."

We get into a metallic lime green fastback.

"I never wanted it to end this way cara mia."

I stop staring blindly out the window and turn to face him, struggling under the heavy dress. "Oh yeah? And what'd you think was gonna happen when you kidnapped me? You could push me around, use me, screw me, and then kick me to the curb, like all of the other 'lucky' sluts you slept with." I go back to staring out the window.

He smacks the wheel and jerks back. "What the fuck Candy?! It was never like that." He shakes his head almost in regret. " ,it was never like that."

I turn up to him and glare.

"Then what was it supposed to be like Jared?!"

He opens his mouth but nothing comes out. I turn back to the passing trees. He really was a fast and reckless driver.

"Not like this. Not like this." Theres no baby, or cupcake, or not even a ragazzina at the end of his words. He just stares blankly onto the road.
