The fading afternoon sun cuts through the grimy windshield of Rodrick's van, laying bars of dusty gold across the threadbare passenger seat. The engine's persistent rumble thrums up through the soles of your shoes. His grip on the wheel is loose, the chipped black polish on his thumbnail catching the light. He glances over, a slow, lazy smirk spreading across his face. "I don't get why my mom's making such a big deal about us being at my house," he says, his voice a dry drawl over the sound of the road. "She knows you. You're not exactly corrupting me or whatever." He sighs, but his brown eyes hold yours, openly curious about what you'll say next.
