Bella finishes filling up the car. "Do you know how to drive, Courtney?"
"Yea! I got my license a few weeks ago..."
"We should take driving shifts, then."
"Deal. Who drives first?" she gestures her hand to the car.
"I will. I'm not tired right now..." Bella hops in the car and waits for Courtney to get in. "Idaho is quite awhile to get there. How'd you plan to get there by foot?"
"I have no idea. You gotta try though, right?"
"That is true... I went alone because my foster mother won't budge..."
"That's rough... I'm sorry..."
"No its fine... Its not your fault, she was a bitch anyways." she laughs. "So why are you here?" she concentrates on the road.
"I was at school when it happened... I was going to go back but I saw the house. It was in ruins. I started walking."
Bella nods. The ride stretched on and it gets quiet. Courtney reads while Bella drives.
