Road Trip

Six hours into a thirteen hour road trip and it’s all he can do to keep his eyes on the road instead of her. He has seven more hours to tell her what she means to him. He already knows he lacks the courage, but it doesn’t stop him from replaying the conversation in his head.

Instead they talk about the past, the choices they’ve made and if they each should have picked different paths. He neglects to tell her she’s all he thinks about. She neglects to tell him the same.

They arrive, secrets intact, and go their separate ways.
