"I'm hungry, can we get something to eat?" Vinnie groaned and held his growling stomach.

"You forget something bro," Modo quipped from the couch of Charlie's living room, "we ain't got our bikes. Charley m'am is still working with them."

Vinnie's face fell. Yes, he did know. But that didn't change the fact he wanted some grub..

"You know, I think Charley still has that old Chevy Nova working" Maia suggested out of the blue. "Chevy Nova? As in, a car?" Vinnie asked. Maia hit his arm, "Yes you silly" she laughed, "Charley and me pimped it out when we were still in high school. God, thinking back, it must have looked horrible when we rolled into the parking lot of our school." She had to smirk at the memory.

"You can never look horrible in anything babe" Vinnie said beside her and batted his eyelashes at her. She rolled her eyes, but she felt the warm feeling his words gave her. "Riiight.. I'm gonna go and ask Charley if we can take it and get some food for my pet," she patted Vinnie's head, "who's stomach is a bottomless well."

"Heyyy!" Vinnie shout after her silently pleased at her words, but she had already gone out. Modo and Throttle just laughed at their bro.

In the end Vinnie had ended up in the driver's seat, his bros sat at the back and Maia was seated beside Vinnie.

Maia crumbled her nose up, "Where's the nearest drive through anyway?" she asked and tried to find one with her gaze.

"On Elmstreet Avenue" Throttle answered from the back, "turn left from the next lights Vinnie" he addressed their 'driver.'

Vinnie puffed, "I know where that is bro, Cheese.."

Maia smiled. This was good. It was almost like she was back with her team. Her team. She remembered all of the guys, their smiles, their jokes. But also their yells, screams, blood.. She squeezed her eyes shut and tried to breathe normally.

"Maia? You alright?" Throttle's concerned voice came through. She opened her eyes and quickly formed a smile to her face, "Huh? Sorry, I was miles away"

"You looked a little troubled.."

"Oh, it's nothing" she tried to escape the subject, but the guys still gave her a concerned look. "Really, I'm fine"

"Okay, if you say so" Throttle sat back.

Vinnie was still giving his girl a questioning look, but she smiled at him, and he understood not to dug any deeper..

"This is it" Modo announced as Vinnie rolled into the drive through and stopped beside the ordering platform.

The loudspeaker made a choked sound, and then static. They could hear someone speaking, but the voice was so bad it almost sounded like some alien language to them all.

"Damn these drive through speakers.." Maia hissed and opened her seatbelt and put her knees under her as she sat again, facing Vinnie. "Excuse me" she said with a devilish smile as she opened her Leatherman knife with couple fast hand moves and then leaned over him to get access to the loudspeaker.

Throttle whistled and Modo gave a laugh as they saw Vinnie's look. Her ass was right in front of his face and he looked at it almost mesmerized. As though her tight fitting jeans weren't enough, while working on the speaker, she moved her ass in a way that her legs and side sometimes touched his chest.

She knew what she was doing. On both the speaker and the effect she had on Vinnie. Ripping two red cords she took her chewing gum out of her mouth and placed that inside the speaker box, near the other cords. Straightening the red cords on her hand, she put them back and screwed couple nuts tight and slammed the speaker box closed again.

"Welcome to Elmergz, how can we help you?" the clear youthful voice said from the speaker as Maia sat herself back to her seat and gave an innocent grin at the guys. "Girl, you are full of surprises!" Vinnie exclaimed at her, still a little flushed. Maia just leaned back and told them to order what they wanted.
