Medieval Or Something Like It - Part Three


The fall from the window was faster than either of them had anticipated.
Maybe it was the weight they had both put on during Christmas, maybe it was God taking pity on them.
Whichever the case, they were on the pavement in two seconds flat.

”Ouch!” Adam exclaimed as he felt his spine crack.
Claire on top of him gave him a sheepish smile.

”Oh, no! Don’t you try your smile with me, missie! I’m a mess here. Why do you always have to be on top?”

The blonde just grinned.
”Stop whining! You know you love it when I’m on top!” she said winking at him at the same time shoving her twisted arm into place.

Adam rolled his eyes but said nothing.
”Come on! Hurry up! Where did you park?” she asked him.

”Just around the corner. Are you sure running is the wise thing to do?” he tried and looked into his eyes seeking to discern any sense into them.

Claire just shrugged.
”I dont know, but with Nathan so pissed, it wasn’t wise to stay there either. Oh, there;s the car!” she exclaimed making her way to Adam’s car.

Adam got in and waited for her to jump in too, before starting the engine and driving off.

”Where to?” he asked, his eyes on the road.

”I don’t know, it doesn’t matter! Anywhere but here?”

”Ok, princess!” he mouthed with a smile on his face. A smile that was contagious seeing that
Claire smiled too and kept playing with Adam’s hair as he drove.

It had been a while when Claire asked where they were.

”I’m not really sure.” was his answer. ”Is there a map in the cabinet in front of you?” he suggested.

Claire opened it and nodded ”no”.

”Maybe in the side ’pocket’”? It was her turn to suggest.

”Nah!”
”Damn! Do you even remember putting the map in the cabinet?” sh glared at him.

”Claire, at this point I don’t even remember owning a map, let alone putting it in the cabinet, in any cabinet!”.

”Great! Just brilliant! What are we going to do?”and her eyes spoke volumes of her mood. She was both mad and disappointed.
”What kind of a driver doesn’t have a map in the cabinet?” she challenged him

”The immortal one?” he teased.
”Seriously, Claire, once you realize that time is not the issue, location doesn’t hold the same importance either.”

She turned to look at him with a raised eyebrow.

He went on to explain.
”I mean, even if I get lost,I will find my way eventually, no matter how long it takes, so what’s the point?”

”Yeah, well the only difference is that I want to graduate sometime this June!”
Claire complained, sinking back in her seat and giving a small sigh.

”Don’t do that, Claire, please! Don’t sulk! Only spoiled brats sulk!”
She moved her head from side to side in denial.
”I am not sulking, I am just upset!”
”And you should expect more of that, now that it’s getting darker”.

”Ok, whatever you say, princess! Just enjoy the scenery!” he gave in.

"What scenery?” she sneered as grey skyscrapers and lower apartment buildings rose from either side of the road.

The more they drove in this direction, the darker it became and it also contained a certain amount of filth.

Claire was sure that this was no place for a girl like her, even the illegitimate daughter of a congressman to be seen in that place, let alone actually drive through it slowly, as if she were parading.

She felt chills down her spine and it rarely ever happened. What was there to be scared of?

After all, nothing could kill her...

Still ,this place gave her the chills.

”Adam? Are you sure about this place?” she whispered looking out the window, her fruystration almost palpable in her mouth.

He glanced at her quickly and then turned his eyes on the road again.
”No, not really. But they won’t be looking in this part of town for us, will they?” he tittered.

”I’m not sure if anyone ever looks in this part of town!” was her answer.
”So, hurry up and drive through, we can do better than this!”

”Umm, I’m sure we could, but ummm, you see there’s a bit of a problem!”

”What kind of a problem?” she asked.

”Erm, remember what I told you about giving Nathan the flowers?”

”Yes, I do, but please there’s no need to discuss this again!” she rolled her eyes.

”Well, I gave Nathan the flowers and I gave Peter my jacket.”

Claire sighed.
”Please don’t tell me this is just a prologue for saying that you are cold...”

He blinked surprised.
”What? No! That is not what I am trying to say!”

”Then what?” Claire indulged him.

”My money was in my jacket. I only have like 50 bucks in my pocket and that’s about it!”

”Don’t worry about it. I’ve got money in my purse...” the blonde cheerleader started fumbling with her dress, looking for it.
Then she slapped her forehead.
”The purse I left in my room, right before we jumped. Damn it!”

As reality sank in...
”Damn it!” they both exclaimed.

”And that’s not the only thing” Adam dared continue.

”There’s more?” she said incredulously.

”Our tank is almost empty,we need a refill of gass pronto, or we will be running on empty!”

”That’s just terrific! And what are we supposed to do to get money? Steal? Beg? Or should I just sell this luscious body of mine?”

”Oh, Claire!! You know I’d buy this body anytime!”

”Seriously? I know I’ve said this before but you are getting more hilarious by the minute!”
