<strong> John Fredricks  (http://i5.photobucket.com/albums/y200/babycakes_0765/John2.jpg)....driving the Bus down the interstate lost in images of the past ...and then the angel speaks.  </strong><br/><br/>John was a little lost in thought ...remembering things from his past mixing the now into a comparison . As the road just slipped away a little bit more as he headed down the 4 lane highway . The farther out of the metro area they went seemed the lesser the traffic . The party behind him seeming to be getting started ...as the lead singer had screamed out his needs . John had to chuckle ....muttering under his breath , keep it up Davis and you might get more than you bargained for . Drawing in a deep breath ...as he flicked the turn signal on and changed lanes due to a slow moving semi .<br/><br/>"So how much longer will it take to get to Chicago seeing that we were a tad late departing?"<br/><br/>John just about pissed himself as he jumped and twisted his head round to the side seat . At first he thought ...my God how many joints did you smoke . Shook his head and returned his eyes to the road . Was just pot right ...mean . Christ sakes was he needing to get laid that badly he was bringing her back to sit up next to him . shifting in his chair now ...as the voice was wrong though . His fingers tightened on the steering wheel as the man swallowed and looked back over to the passenger seat.<br/><br/>It was Ava ...which ...well ....not sure still if he wasn't dreaming . His heart beat seemed to be pounding so loud that it was just about to work its way out of his chest . He could feel his hands growing sweaty more than likely the death grip on the steering wheel . Putting a smile across his lips as his eyes rolled down her body some ...then back to look at the road . Okay now what ....he had imagined talking to her a million times . Every time he had decided the approach made him look like a dumbass and now here she was talking to him ...how much time had passed .<br/><br/><strong>" What ....did you ....oh yea Chicago . " </strong>as his voice seemed odd maybe it was the ringing in his head from the idiot bell going off .<strong> " Late start actually is good you see ....less traffic . Most likely pull off at the next rest stop or so ...let everyone find their legs if they need to anyways . " </strong>reaching for his cup of coffee ....<strong>" need to fill up on that nasty Mickie D's java anyways ...I am addicted . " </strong>licking his lips before taking down the rest of the cold coffee .<br/><strong><br/>" Taste a little better warm anyways ... " </strong>smiling over to her seeming to be able to adjust and hold a reasonable conversation anyways .<strong>" You ...any addictions you want to admit to ...I am John by the way , most call me JD . Have to forgive me , not many lovely woman come up front to chat often ...just threw me off my game a little . "  </strong><br/><br/>Looking back to the road as he flipped his blinker on before moving back to the slow lane ...of course it had started to rain . Moving to start the wipers up as he realized he had just admitted to the woman that captured his breath every time he looked at her that he was . A sideways look up at her ...good god she was beautiful surly she was in love with one of the band members .<strong>" So which band member you ..."</strong>maybe he didn't want to know as he stopped mid sentence and went back to looking at the road .<strong>" nevermind ...that is none of my business . " </strong><br/><br/>Yep all that practice in what to say , how to get her attention ...and here he was looking like a complete moron .
