Note…- First, thank you guys again, especially to blue-eyes and sabrine
who keep coming back to read. lol. Reviews are nice. The song in this
part is "Sorry, sorry" by Rooney. I'll put a * next to the beginning and
ending of the song. Example: * "Sorry, sorry"*. This part may be a bit
short. See I had some stuff written, but I'm changing a few things and
still deciding where to go with it. In other words I have the ending (or
something close to it) in my head, but I need the middle! lol. -
The ride was quiet. All three of them were in the front with Grace in the middle. Grace noticed that Virgo had moved considerably to the left in her seat. This would cause the occasional brushing of limbs between Grace and Eli.
"You're evil." Grace whispered to Virgo just as Eli shifted his leg. Grace stiffened and Virgo smiled.
Virgo pulled out a CD from her bag, "So does anybody mind if…?"
Eli turned his head just as Grace did. He was assaulted with the smell of vanilla and the softness of her hair.
'Vanilla? She does this to me on purpose.'
"Eli. Eli, do you mind?" Grace was waving the CD at him.
"Huh?" His eyes flashed back to the road. 'Dude. Red light. Stopping would be nice.' Eli stopped the car and turned to the girls and looked at the CD again.
"Yeah. I mean sure. I don't mind." Eli let out a breath and focused back on the road.
"Are you ok E? You nearly ran that red light." Grace asked concerned.
"Fine." He sort of mumbled in response.

"Finally." Eli sighed silently as he parked the car in a stall at the high school.
* "Well, I met this girl on a Saturday night, Saturday night. Saturday night, Saturday night. Saturday night, Saturday night. She sat there all alone with a Shirley Temple and a cellular phone. No one to call, no one to ring 'cause no one's home."* The girls had started singing some where after the last left turn.
* "Sorry, sorry for making you life a living hell. Sorry, sorry for making your life a living hell. That wasn't me that was Rodrigo. That wasn't me, that was Johnny Rocket."* They seemed unfazed that the car had stopped.
"Are you two done?" Eli asked, a little part of him enjoying seeing Grace like this. It was nice to see her just goof around sometimes.
The apparently weren't finished though, "I'm sorry, sorry for making your life a living hell." They sang it softly just like the band.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry." Virgo.
"I'm sorry. I'm sorry." Grace.
They were using their hands as microphones and dancing, if you could call it dancing. After all they were still sitting in the car. Eli didn't want to, but he turned off the car. Grace and Virgo gave him a disappointed look.
"I'm sorry?" He said with raised eyebrows. "Ladies. As much as I'd love to continue this private concert, I believe you have to go to school and I have work soon."
"Right. School-ward!" Virgo hopped out of the car.
Grace followed and turned back to Eli, "Thanks." She said with a smile.
"Yeah no problem. I'll see you at home." Eli started up the car and the song picked up again. "Hey what about…?" he motioned towards the radio.
"Keep it! Grace can give it to me later." Virgo called back as she and Grace made their way up the steps, still humming and spinning a few times.
