søren wants some zoomies! 🚗
" god , i haven't done this in forever - " the stretch of road in front of them is clear , abandoned nearly -- colt has made sure of it . has driven the two of them out through winding side streets and out of the heart of civilization . and it's nighttime , because colt can't help the nostalgia factor of it . headlights in his eyes like stars and the hum of the engine thrumming up through his feet straight into his heart . he knows intimately , the danger of a stray turn , the slip of a tire -- and that's why he's so confident in this , even years later . he's smiling to himself as he fiddles with the gear shift , all the excitement of invincible youth in his eyes again , something that's been slowly fading through the years . bright and alive when he looks over at søren . he revs once , twice , three times ( always sets of three , for good luck ) and shifts into drive .
" okay -- just hold onto the handlebar if you need it . this car is pretty good , but i had a toyota once that started rattling when i hit ninety - five , " a laugh , settling his hands on the wheel , one last look over -- flicks his headlights , like a wink . " and if you want to stop just tell me , i'm gonna get us to one - thirty otherwise . "
