The dim light of the sun shone
over the horizon in the early hours of the morning, Connor yawned loudly
awaking Rob who was sat next to him, Rob slowly opened his eyes, he wiped the
drool of the side of his mouth, “your awake at last lazy bollocks” Connor
laughed, “best night’s sleep I’ve had in a while” Rob smiled, “you mind if we
stop?, I need to stretch my legs” Rob continued sitting up rubbing his eyes,
“yeah sure, you mind driving after?” Connor asked slowly stopping the car,
“yeah whatever bro” he said opening his door and stepping out, Lewis was just
behind and he stopped his car, Lewis stepped out and walked over to Connor who
still sat in driver seat, “everything okay bro?” he asked, “yeah, just needed a
break is all” he said resting his head on the head rest, “oh okay mate” Lewis
replied, he walked back banging on the windows of the car, “come on wake up, ya
lazy bunch of pricks” he said smiling, everyone in the back suddenly shot up,
“Lewis ya twat, I was comfy there ya know” Megan said stepping out the door,
Lewis suddenly realised Herbie was still asleep in his sports car, he ran back
over to Connor, “yo dude check the glove boxes a sec, I have an idea for a
laugh” He said smiling, Connor sighed and gave him a look of confusion, and
reached over to the glove box and searched through them, “there’s only a few
bingo cards and a ball point pen?” Connor said still scrounging through it,
“yeah gimme the pen quick” Lewis said reaching through the window, He passed
him the light blue ball point pen and Lewis rushed off to his car, he walked
over to the sleeping Herbie and took the lid of the pen, he started drawing a
huge Hungarian moustache on his top lip, when he finished that he drew a
connection from both his eyebrows making a long dark mono-brow, he struggled to
hold his laughter in trying not to awake him, he walked around the car and
opened the boot of the jeep, “hey Lily do me a favour and wake up Herbie will
ya?” Lewis asked trying to hide his laughter, “Why have I got to do it?” she
asked, “just trust me” Lewis laughed, Lily looked at Bella in confusion, Bella
just shrugged her shoulders, she jumped out and walked over to the sleeping
Herbie, “umm, herb’ I’ve been told to wake you up... oh my god” she said
bursting out laughing, Herbie suddenly awoke, “huh, oh” he said opening his car
door revealing his face to everyone else by the jeep, they all burst out
laughing, “what’s so funny?” he said opening his eyes wide, he didn’t get a
reply over the laughter, “come on someone spill the beans?” he said getting
more furious, Rob came over to him and bent over trying to catch his breath,
“dude, look in the mirror” he said bursting into laughter once again, He sighed
and walked over to the wind mirror of the sports car, “oh very funny, didn’t
know we had a comedian among us” He sighed licking his finger and wiping the
pen off his face, “sorry mate if was such a good opportunity for a laugh, and I
think we all needed it after what we’ve been through” Lewis said walking up to
him and putting his arm around Herbie’s shoulder, “yeah I guess it was quite
funny” Herbie giggled, “right, what’s the plan” Lewis said rubbing his hands
together, “well I think we should go off the next exit and get some food”
Connor said walking over towards the group, “yeah sounds good” Rob nodded his
head, “yeah okay, you can drive my car”
Lewis said throwing his keys to Herbie, he fumbles to catch them, “just look after
her okay, she’s a beauty” Lewis sighed turning around to look at him staring in
admiration at the keys, “oh.. yeah sure I know Lily
is.. you aint stopped going on about
that moment” Herbie continued turning around towards the car, completely
oblivious to what he had just said, “wait... what!” Connor shouted back at him,
then looked over towards Lewis , “dude,
let me explain...” Lewis tried to calm
him down but he was interrupted, “so it’s true?!” “look it was an accident, it
wasn’t planned or anything...” Lewis said quickly shrugging his shoulders and
put his hands out in front of him, “dude, you know I liked her, a lot actually,
and you persuaded me not to do anything about it!, you selfish dick!” He
shouted at Lewis , Lewis walked over to him and put his hand on his
shoulder, “look mate, I know it sounds bad but...” but before he could finish
Connor turned around and looked Lewis dead in the eye and then punched him
straight between the eyes, “thought u was my mate!” Connor shouted to Lewis who was rolling on the floor holding his
gushing nose, “ouch, shit!” Lewis
moaned in pain, the others just stood in be-wilderness, Connor stormed over
towards Herbie and snatched the keys out of his hands, and walked over towards
the sports car holding his two fists as tight as he could by his sides, “wait,
where are you going?” Rob shouted to
him, “I don’t know, and right now I don’t care” he said grinding his teeth, “well
you can’t just leave it’s not safe?” Herbie said jogging up to him, Connor
opened the car door and leapt in, all of them ran over to Connor in the car,
except Lewis who was still sat on the floor holding his face in agony, “don’t
do this” Bella said leaning through his window, “I’m sorry I can’t stay here,
not with that prick” Connor said tightening his eyebrows towards Lewis before
slamming his foot down and speeding of down the quiet empty motorway, leaving
the group to realise Lewis was still groaning in excruciating pain and they
rushed over to aid him.
