They're going to die. Robbie knows they're going to die. It's seven thirty in the morning, Robbie doesn't drink coffee so he's still half asleep and he just knows, deep inside, that they're going to die. There are many ways they could- for example, one, they could skid off that bridge that's coming up and into the river below it. They could hit an innocent passerby and careen into a garbage truck. An SUV could blink and miss them and crash straight into him and Tori.
These things happen. Robbie knows, he watches the news. Plus, driving a tiny motorized scooter with room for basically nothing else (let alone another person) pretty much sets your fate.
Tori does not agree with him, obviously, which is how they ended up in this situation in the first place.
Robbie almost screams when they pass another speedbump- manages to clamp his mouth shut just in time so Tori doesn't hear him. He already seems like enough of a wimp, and doesn't completely want to show it off by screaming like a chick would inevitably do.
His teeth knock together and Tori's arms tighten around his waist. She puts one hand on top of his on the handles, slipping her fingers between the spaces in his own.
"You're not going to fall off, Robbie." She pats Robbie on the knee like he's a stupid child. "We're going to be fine. Trust me."
"I hate speed bumps," He mutters, just to be petty and a little bit rude.
"Well, too bad." Tori informs him, "They're built in. No way of avoiding those ganks."
"You don't even have a helmet on!" Robbie says, huffing a little.
"Do you know how long it takes to ever so slightly curl my hair like this?" She asks.
Robbie rolls his eyes.
They make it in time, and alive, for school. Robbie swears he is never ever giving her a ride again, not in this lifetime, missy- but he keeps holding her hand on the way to their lockers, so Tori considers the morning a win and ignores him.
