Mark notices that Becky is silent when she gets in the car, no morning whispered against his lips, or a kiss on his cheek like he's use to being greeted by her. He glances over to see Mrs. and Mr. Conner looking in their direction, as he starts the engine, and pulls out of the driveway.
He doesn't want to push Becky into telling him what's bothering her. He already knows that she has a lot on her mind with her dream of college being ripped away. When she came over to his apartment and simply threw her arms around him. He feels bad that he added on to that with the mention of the job in Minnesota. If staying in Landford ment that they won't be miles seperating him, and Becky, than he's fine with it.
He kisses her forehead,as he places his hands on top of the Mustang's hood. Grinning boyishly as he feels Becky wrap her arms around his torso. He presses himself into her, when she mentions that they should start with the Gas Station. Becky presses her face against his neck. Whispering,that she loves him, and he whispers back that he's will always be here for her.
He pulls her close to his side as they walk into the little store of the gas station that Becky mentioned yesterday. Smiling to himself as Becky snuggles into his side.
