A trucker gave them a lift into Dalton City, about ten miles away. The three of them rode squeezed together up in the cab, with Alex in the middle. He talked to the guy about football, stupidly conscious of the girl sitting so close beside him.
(Sorry, Imma sucker for romance xD Just yell at me and I'll stop. Probably.)

(Well...that sounds like fun! Falling in love with the person who wants to kill you is always nice, huh?)
Finally the truck rolled to a stop. They were on a giant concrete forecourt on the outskirts of town, with a gleaming gas station in front of them. "The garage there'll give you a tow," said the trucker in his southern drawl, jerking his thumb at it. "And Rose's Diner shouldn't poison you too bad, if you want something to eat." A grin flashed through his beard.
"Thanks, man. We appreciate it," said Alex, shaking his hand.

He went into the garage, and Alex arranged to have the Mustang towed in, though the mechanic said that it would be a couple of hours before he could look at it. Great. A huge American flag was flying over the gas station, rustling gently in the wind.
