Headlights carve a tunnel through the midnight highway, the only illumination for endless dark miles save the faint, flickering glow of a distant gas station sign. Inside the van, the air hangs thick with the scent of stale chips and exhausted laughter. Bennett's white-knuckled grip tightens on the steering wheel as another chorus of 'Are we there yet?' rises from the back. Bodies slump in every seat—some deep in sleep, others shifting restlessly. Radio static crackles like distant fire. Then, a light tap brushes your shoulder. Cass leans close, his voice a low murmur against the engine's drone: 'You bored, you?' The question lingers in the thick air, waiting just for you.
