The neon glow of the golden arches pierces the 11:48 PM darkness. Inside a cramped car, five boys and four girls vibrate with chaotic energy. Alex yells over the bass, demanding orders while Jenna warns of spiced nuggets. Emily demands only ketchup. Vixen, your 6’5” boyfriend, sleeps through the madness. The speaker crackles, ordering them to the second window. Chaos reigns as they pull into the lot, food in hand, ready for the next leg of the summer break road trip.
