Road Trip
It was May 25 and school was out for summer vacation. No more school,
no more books, no more teachers dirty looks.sorry couldn't resist. I guess
I am just weird that way. As almost all my friends say. Who am I? My name
is Faye Maxina Maxwell, but everyone calls me Max. I am usually known as
the weirdest kid in all of Middletown, New York. Due so more to the fact
that I once tried to kill the teacher ^_~. Anyway since school was out and
I had promised Duo that I would go on a road trip with him and his friends
(Heero, Quatre, Wufei, and Trowa).
I was still having second thoughts about this trip though cause well being
trapped in a car with Duo? I know he's my best friend and all but still.
Well at least he said I could bring some friends. This will be the first
time he's ever met my friends and I his. Ya see Duo and me are practically
brother and sister as well as buds.
We were both orphans at the Maxwell church. That's were we both got our
last names from. He's also a Gundam pilot while my friends and I are
sweepers or as oz's calls us, Hells Angels. Well anyway right now I am
trying to figure out what I am going to take. So far I have two duffel bags
and a backpack.
Duo told me not to bring a lot cause Wufei would throw a fit. Kora, one of
my friends, was still trying to make her little pack smaller. So far she
was down to only four suitcases. Sage and Kay, who are the only couple in
our group, are both already packed causes Kay packed their stuff. Relena
(no not that b**** Relena Peacecraft) but Relena Lee, was also done and was
now lounging around in the den. Kora had just finished compressing all her
stuff into one bag (lord knows how she pulled it off), when Duo pulled his
van up in the driveway and honked the horn.
"Hey they're here!" I yell over my shoulder to everyone in the house. I
sprint out of the house to give Duo a hug that ended up a choke hold." Hey
Max...I.can't...breathe," Duo gasped. I released him grinning. " Duo come
over here and help empty this cooler," said a boy with the shiniest black
hair I had ever seen. They had driven here all the way form Maine. " Aye wu-
man that can wait come over here and meet Max," DON'T CALL ME WU-MAN!" the
boy screamed but came over anyway followed by a cute blond angel, a tall
guy with a nice body and gravity defying hair, and one of the cutest
Japanese guys I had ever seen with eyes of an interesting blue that almost
rival my mismatched ones, but clinging to his arm was a girl I knew and
hated, Relena Peacecraft. Why the hell was she here! " Hey guys I want you
to meet Max, my all time buddy and forever sister," He said," and Max I
want you to meet Wufei, Quatre, Trowa, Heero and you have already met
Relena," I caught the sarcasm in his voice. I looked at Relena who was
still clinging to Heero's arm. Why is it that the cutest guys are always
with the dumb blondes? OK so I admit it I was jealous of her, but what
could I say this guy was a cutie, and I wasn't the only one who thought so.
Kay and the other Relena came out just then and stopped in their tracks
when they saw the guys. "Well, Max you told us that we were gonna be
traveling with a bunch of Duo's friends," our Relena remarked, "but I guess
you neglected to mention that each and every one of them would be hot." Kay
shook herself out of her stupor just then. "I'm sorry about Relena, she's
as candidly honest as a 90 year old woman who just has nothing to surprise
her anymore."
Kay took the initiative to introduce herself and Relena without even
waiting for me to say anything to the guys. Our Relena was not too thrilled
to be sharing her name with the dumb blond. It actually wasn't the dumb
blond part that bother her 'cause let's face it she herself was one. What
bothered her was the other Relena's prissiness. Our Relena was adorned in a
pair of black suspender pants with the suspenders crossing between her
legs, a black tank top with the words Rock On on the front, and a pair of
ragged skater style what used to be white shoes which and a few lugs
missing. This was pretty much her normal attire, not to mention that she
was still trying to grow her perfectly blond hair out from when she dyed it
black the summer before.
Now on the other hand Relena P. had her shoulder length blond hair with
those annoying little braids pulled to the back, and was wearing a button
up white shirt with a little blue
Plaid skirt, and black penny loafers over her perfect little ankle socks.
In the end we ended up just telling everybody to try and call our Relena,
Lee whenever both Relena's were together, partly just to limit the
confusion, and partly so that our Relena would not begin to fume every time
she was reminded that she had something in common with the priss.
" Well are you guys finished packing," Duo asked me after he was
introduced to Sage. " Yea," I said," All we need is to load up. So where
are we going to first anyway." " Well where heading down to New York, New
York first, cause these guys have never seen the statue of liberty," Duo
said," Then were going to look at the map and pick places from there." " I
already know where we should go from there," Kay said from sages lap," I
have a friend who lives in Maine. We can go there and travel everywhere
else from there. My god brother has a pretty good sized bachelor pad in
Pittsfield, and as long as I give him a ring a few days before we get there
I'm sure he'll let us stay with him." Duo gets in the 14-passenger van and
said, "It's settled then, you can call your god brother as soon as we get
to New York. I know that we're gonna spend at least a week in the Big Apple
and then hopefully just a couple of nights in Maine."
"Why are we listening to this woman anyway?" Wufei said as he slides into
the van and slammed the door shut. "Cause you luv me," Kay teased as she
flashes a smile at him.
"Hey!" Sage protested.
"What? Are you jealous babe?" Kay asks him.
"Of course," he replied and caught her for a kiss. "OK," Duo interrupted,
"Everybody ready?" He received various nods from the rearview mirror and
pulled out of the driveway.
Chapter 2
" 20,200,490 bottles of beer on the wall. 20,200,490..." I sang along with
Duo (I was
Sitting up front with him). Loving the way Heero's eye ticked every time we
said beer."WILL YOU TWO SHUTUP ALREADY," Wufei yelled. Duo and me stopped
singing."Wufei you don't like our singing," I asked. "
No"
" Well to bad," Duo said "" Hey if you two are going to sing," Kay said she
was in the very back doing whatever to sage (thank god we couldn't
see)."Could you sing something else," sage
Said finishing for her." fine," I said. I turned on the radio and started
flipping through the stations but there was nothing. " Hey Duo did you
bring thoses CD's I asked for." "Yea," he said," There under your seat." I
pulled out Duo's cds and kept flipping through them until I found the one I
wanted. I popped it in and started singing along.
Radio:

When the song ends everybody's laughing their heads off, except Kay and
Wufei.
"I can't believe I just knew every word to an N*Sync song," Kay says with a
slightly pained and sick look on her face.
Wufei answered, "Tell me about it I did a whole damn verse on a solo."
" Hey it wasn't that bad. We changed the words and made the song better,"
Duo said grinning.
"Yea" Max put in," hey guys look were almost there" she was pointing at a
sign that said two more miles. "NEW YORK HERE WE COME!!!!!"
