Tripping Over Cobblestone

Novel on the blog. Chapter One (Well not all of ONE).

    I could see my breath on the air as my mind fuzzed. The car I slumped in wasn’t mine. In fact Lilah hated her station wagon ironically called "Celebrity". I turned the key without the slightest regret of stealing it. But that was all I had as far as get away plans go. She would never miss it. There wasn’t a day that went by that Lilah didn’t pray for this thing to be stolen anyway. I said I would be gone for a couple of days to visit friends in Virgina. The worn veleteen seat still smelt of McDonalds from earlier this morning.

    I wish there were something I could have said to Dane as he ended our week long relationship. The only thing that kept popping up in my mind was a resounding thank you. I was too young to deal with the waves of emotion he seemed to display. I was glad it was over. All that japanese food was making me gag. He thought it was so awesome to eat it for every consievable meal. What kind of a name is Dane anyways?
