"Next city with a hotel, we're staying there! Marissa, I hope your mamma understands, I want to sleep on a bed tonight after that experience." Mandy rambled on. Marissa just nodded.

"Definitely, even though I got a bed." Sara smiled. Mandy was driving, Sara was passenger, Marissa was in the back with the others who were talking about mindless things quietly.

They were now out of the forest area and in a more open space which they were very thankful for.

"Marissa, what's it like to be in love?" Joe randomly asked.

Marissa was half asleep, "What Joe?"

"What's it like? To be in love?" Joe repeated.

"I'm sorry, I actually have no idea, that's an experience I don't think I've ever felt."

"Yea, bitches like Marissa don't fall in love." Sara laughed, "But I can tell you. It's pretty much indescribable."

"All you need is love!" Obi-wan added.

"Hey, I think some 'Moulin Rouge' Christian is coming out of him..." Marissa mumbled. They went on talking about love, and the topic made her sick to her stomach. She never wanted to know what it was like, and intended for it to never happen to her.

"When we were in high school, Sara and I both had our boyfriends. Marissa thought it was disgusting. She vowed she'd never ever fall in love. And she's lived up to that statement still." Mandy explained, "Which is really quite sad, Marissa."

"I honestly don't see what's so bad about it." Marissa responded in her defense, "Maybe I like being the way I am. Which I very much do. It's not like I'm depressed. And are you still with those boys now?"

"No, but you're a bit crazy." Mandy replied.

"And really bitchy." Sara added.

"But we love you any ways." Mandy smiled and they all laughed. Even the fictional people who had no idea exactly what was going on laughed. Marissa glanced at Joe who had started this entire conversation, "Why did you ask that any ways, Joe?"

"I was just wondering. I wasn't built to fall in love, but I still think it may be possible. I just wanted to know what it was like. However, I don't think it's ever happened."

"That's because you just have your customers, Joe."

"And I don't love them."

"That's a good thing." Marissa glanced over at the others in the car and realized being who they were it was likely that none of them had ever been in love with anyone or anything. The thought suddenly scared her when it occurred to her that may be the reason why they were there. She quickly rejected the idea because it really didn't make any sense. This wasn't because she needed to learn a lesson about love, or needed to teach them one, or her friends needed to teach them one. She was confusing herself so just decided to shut up and stare out the window, hoping they'd soon arrive at their destination so she could just sleep on a nice bed and a take a long shower. The thought of relaxing calmed her down and she soon fell asleep.
