He nods and drives onto the highway, speeding past all of the cars,
making me feel a little anxious and
even a little nostalgic, I think about me
and Marceline driving fast on the roads, music blasting, windows down.

Hair flying everywhere, laughing,
crying, screaming.
It's something you have to experience
to understand the energy.

"He's always been very out of touch with
his emotions, it's like he's always distant," Xavier tells me, it sounds nothing
like how Marceline describes him.

"But then," Xavier says "He met her and
he suddenly he has all of these emotions,
I would see him laugh and smile occasionally but nothing like how he was with her."

"Marcy knows how to make people
smile, it's kind of disturbing."
I laugh and look out of the window
"She'll either be an absolute
nightmare or the best daydream."

he starts laughing and gets off
the highway, onto a private road

One that leads to the bar.

I start to feel uneasy, I never
told him where the bar was.

"Aleksander told me this was where
Hannah lead him, is this where she is
or not?" oh- the feeling still sits in my
stomach but I realize it's the paranoia
that I experience too often.

Xavier aggressively taps on the steering
wheel while waiting for the traffic to
start moving, he's clearly trying to mask
his road rage and it isn't going great.

The energy in here is very awkward,
I don't know what to say or ask,
I'm in too much of a depressive state
and until I can find a joke that makes
us both laugh, I'm stuck in it.

I blurt out a question, it's one I
shouldn't ask and something odd
for me to notice

"So, do you have road rage or are you
just-" he interrupts me, I don't know
if I should be happy about that or not

"No, It's just this idiotic fucking driver,
they can't even fucking drive
and I don't want to scare you but they
won't stop hitting the stupid
fucking breaks, no one else is doing it,
They won't just give it a rest!"

I start laughing, my bones feel sore
and my chest hurts
"Have you never driven before?" I ask
him and continue laughing right after

He throws his hands up in frustration,
making his hand hit the
top of the car "Fuck, Fucking, Fuck."
he rubs his hands and says

"I never had to drive! Aleksander is
too much of a fucking control freak
to let me drive his stupid car!"

We both laugh so much, rocking back
and forth, hitting whatever is in front
of us, trying to control our bodies.

The whole car starts shaking, making
it look like fucking is in here.

Knowing that makes it even funnier.

"Can you play music, Aleksander never
wants any music and it's annoying."
I scoff and nod, I didn't think Aleksander
could get any worse but here I am, being proven wrong. "Abso-fucking-lutely"

I grab my phone and start the
music, playing my favorite song,
Xavier slowly turns his head,
looking me dead in the eye

"I love this song!" excitement runs
through my veins and makes me smile

See Marceline, I have great
music taste so I win, you lose.

After dancing in the car and basically screaming the lyrics of songs we get to
the gross bar, I don't understand why
she wants to work there, every time I look
there is only an old guy behind the bar.
