ROAD TRIP!!!!!

Let's get in the car, you and I, and drive away together. I've always wanted to do that. No worries, no cares, no looking back.

We would drive for miles with the windows down, wind whipping our hair all about. We would blast the radio and sing along with it, in our slightly off-key voices. We'd talk for hours and keep each other awake as we took turns driving.

There is something so alluring about the vast open road. We can drive forever and go anywhere at all. It is one of those things that's on the bucket list. 'Take a road trip with friends'. We can do it. We are young and wild and free.

Stopping at rest stops and eating junk food from the vending machine. Stopping to take in the gorgeous mountain views. Taking pictures. Bonding.

Where would we go? Do you have a plan? I wish I could be spontaneous. I wish I could throw the rules out the window, say 'to hell with it', live in the moment, enjoy life, be exciting. But I need a carefully mapped out plan. I need to know everything before I take off.

But with you, it would all be different. Feet up on the dashboard, head back, mouth open with laughter. Hair streaked with sunlight, eyes shaded with sunglasses, the picture of happiness. You would bring that out in me. For you I would be spontaneous. For you, I would jump, because I know you'd never let me fall.

One day we will get in that car and drive off into the sunset together, on our very own road trip. And it'll be the journey of a lifetime.
