A/N-Aren't you guys happy, we're updating so quickly lately?! And all those reviews on the last chapter?! You guys are AWESOME! Cookies for you! We shall now explain some of your problems with the last chappie....

sweet catastrophe-We actually wrote the people in the story having thick southern accents before we decided on Alabama. We knew we wanted it to be in the middle of the deep south. We just wrote the accents like the really southern people that live around us. Bessie and Billy are supposed to be in the middle of nowhere, so we guess it fits. Chitlins are chicken guts by the way. Lots of people eat them down here; they even sell them at KFC.

Jackie G-Yay you liked it! hehe.....but yeah we knew about grits and stuff. We DO live in North Carolina, ya know. We're not exactly Northerners!

Sarah-The reason Lily doesn't like thunder is because they dont really get much of it in England. I, personally, love thunder, but if I wasn't used to it I think it would be kinda creepy.

Thanks to all of you plus LittleWriterGirl, the-power-of-love, fairybells3, Flame of Desire, darknd-wrtr-w/-a-heart-of-gld, and snuffles101 for reviewing! You have no idea how much it means to us! Now, on with the story!

On The Road Again

Everyone woke up very early the next morning thanks to Stan, Bessie's rooster. After getting dressed and repacking their stuff, they went downstairs for breakfast.

"Mornin!" greeted Bessie. "Did yalls sleep good?"

"Yes," Ariel answered stretching. "I can get used to sleeping in the country; it's so nice and quiet."

"Quiet?" Lily asked. "Did you not hear all that thunder?"

"Nope. I slept like a log."

"It kept James and I up all night," Lily said.

"I'm hungry," Sirius complained. "Bessie?"

"Yes, dear?"

"Is breakfast almost ready?"

"One more minute honey," Bessie answered giving him a smile.

After eating a big breakfast of grits, eggs, bacon, and biscuits, they all thanked Bessie and Billy for their stay.

"If yall are ever in Alabama again, don't ferget ta visit!" Bessie said.

"We won't," they all said at once.

Sirius went up to Bessie and gave her a big hug. "You're like the mama I never had!"

"Aww! Isn't he just the sweetest thang!" Bessie exclaimed.

"If that's what you wanna call it..." Remus said chuckling.

As the six pulled out of the driveway and headed for the main road, they could still see Bessie and Billy standing on the front porch, waving them off.

"They are really cool people," Autumn said with a sad expression on her face.

"Don't be sad," Lily encouraged. "We still have lots more stops to make and even more cool people to meet."

"I can't wait to tell everyone back home about grits and chitlins!" Sirius exclaimed.

"I'm pretty sure we take Highway 61 all the way to Orlando, and then-" James began.

"Noooo way bucko. We're buying a map this time!" Lily interrupted.

James was just about to argue when Remus said "I agree. We almost didn't find our hotel last time. I say we get a map at the next gas station we see."

"And look at how much of a disaster that would have been if we hadn't ever met Bessie and Billy! No chitlins and corn bread?! I can't even think about it!" Sirius said, laying a hand across his forehead.

"Fine, we'll stop at the next station, we need gas anyway." James said.

"Jamesie can I get a soda?" asked Sirius. It had been an hour before the next station, since they were practically in the middle of nowhere. The Amoco station reeked of oil and cigarettes, but there were maps, and of course, the necessary bathrooms.

"I guess Sirius," James replied.

"Can I get a slushy instead?" Sirius questioned.

"Yes you can get a slushy instead," James said.

"Can I get this too?" Sirius asked, holding up a lollipop shaped like Spongebob Squarepants.

"No," James said bluntly.

"Please, why not? Please!" Sirius pleaded.

"Fine! But nothing else!" James said.

"Yay!" Sirius put his slushy and sucker down on the counter and began looking at post cards. The girls walked out of bathroom and walked down the aisles. They squealed when they found a magazine with Brad Pitt on the cover and grabbed it. They then each got a soda and a large bag of doritos to share. Lily sat the things down on the countertop. James looked at the things, then at her, then at the things.

"What?" Lily asked.

James continued to look at the things, then at Lily.

"Fine," Lily finally said, handing him a ten dollar bill.

In the end they walked back to the car carrying four sodas, a slushy, two Spongebob suckers, a bag of doritos, three snickers bars, a magazine, and five post cards.

"Wow, we got a lot more than I thought," said Autumn as they all got situated in the car. Sirius was already sucking on his lollipop, and the smells of Dr. Pepper and spicy nacho were already filling the car.

As James pulled back onto the road, Lily switched on the radio and began flipping through the stations.

"Oooo, I love this song!" she exclaimed when she heard Jessica Simpson's voice over the radio.

"Boy I think that I'm in love with you," she sang. Soon Ariel and Autumn had joined her, and Sirius was sticking his head out the window.

"Got me doin silly things when it comes to you (in love)

Boy I think that I'm in love with you (boy I think I'm in love)

I've been telling all of my friends what I feel for you"

"Change it!" James yelled over the sound of their voices. Finally, he pushed the button and the girls whined.

"This is more like it!" he said, turning up the bass.

"Yeek yeek woop woop! Why you all in my ear?!" he began, and Remus and Sirius sang with him.

"Talking a whole bunch of shit

That I ain't trying to hear!

Get back! You don't know me like that!

(Get back! You don't know me like that!)

Yeek yeek woop woop!! I ain't playing around!

Make one false move I'll take ya down

Get back! You don't know me like that!

(Get back! You don't know me like that!)

I came (I came) I saw (I saw)

I hit 'em right dead in the jaw (in the jaw)"

"Argh I hate this song!" Autumn screamed. Lily pushed the button, finally finding something they could all listen to.

"Peace up!

A Town Down!" said James.

"Yeah, Ok! Lil' Jon!" said Sirius.

Everybody was singing by the time the chorus came.

"Yeah (yeah) Shorty got down and said come and get me

Yeah (yeah) I got so caught up I forgot she told me

Yeah (yeah) Her and my girl used to be the best of homies

Yeah (yeah) Next thing I knew she was all up on me screaming:

Yeah, Yeah yeah, Yeah yeah, Yeah

Yeah, Yeah yeah, Yeah yeah, Yeah"

Long after the song ended, everyone had it stuck in their heads.

"That song is very addictive," Ariel said. "Yeah, yeah...do da dee..."

"It sure is," Remus agreed.

"Jamesieeee.....how much longer till we get there?" Sirius asked slurping on his slushy.

"About another couple of hours," James answered.

"But my slushy will be all gone by then," Sirius whined.

"And we're not stopping for anything," Lily said. "Not even for bathroom breaks."

Sirius, not listening to Lily's comment said, "Let's play a game!"

"Good idea!" Autumn said. "Looking at all this grass is making me bored stiff."

"What are we gonna play?" Ariel asked.

"How about I spy?" Sirius said.

"Good thinking mate," Remus replied. "Even you can't mess that game up."

So the game began.

"I spy with my little eye something.....green," Sirius said.

"Narf! Grass!" Ariel answered.

"Oh my god! How did you know? Are you physic?"

"Uhh...no. Even a slow person would have known you were talking about grass! It's all we've seen for miles!"

"Right....I knew that."

"I spy with my little eye something.....red," Ariel said.

"The Dr. Pepper bottles?"

"No."

"Remus' shirt?"

"No."

"Lily's hair?"

"Yes! Good job James!" Ariel exclaimed.

"I spy with my little eye something....blue," James said.

"Sirius' eyes?"

"No."

"The picture of the lake on the postcard?"

"No."

"Spongebob's pants?"

"Yup!"

"Yay! It's my turn again!" Sirius exclimed happily. "I spy with my little eye something.....pink."

"My lip-gloss?"

"Nope."

"The flowers?"

"Nope."

"Sirius, other than the two things we just said there isn't anything else that's pink in the car," Lily said glancing around, just to be sure.

"Yes there is," Sirius said with a grin on his face.

"We give up," Remus said. "What is it?"

"Does this mean I win?" Sirius asked.

"I guess so mate," James answered.

"Yay! I would like to thank my mama Bessie, and chocolate chip cookies, and this wonderful slushy, for making all this possible," Sirius said wiping away a fake tear.

"What was the pink thing you spied?" Ariel asked.

"Autumn's underwear," Sirius answer simply.

"What?! How do you know what color they are?!" Autumn exclaimed.

"Well, your pants do go rather low...."

"You're the one that's low," Autumn said hitting him on the arm.

"All right," Remus said. "Stop the violence." Remus was currently sitting between Sirius and Autumn so he really didn't want them getting into a fight.

"What are we gonna do now?" whined Sirius after two minutes of silence.

"You could sleep," suggested James.

"But I'm not tired, and the day is still young!" Sirius replied.

We could play that ABC game. You know, the one where you go to the grocery store and buy something?" said Autumn.

"Oh, yeah, except lets only say something once, instead of having to repeat it," Ariel said.

"Huh?" said Remus, James, and Sirius in unison.

"Like this," Lily began, "I went to the store and bought apples."

"I went to the store and bought bacon," Ariel said. "Now it's your turn Sirius."

"Ok! I went to the store and bought pretzels."

"No stupid you have to say something beginning with the letter we're on. So you have to say something starting with a c," explained Autumn.

"Oh, I see. Hmm... I know! I went to the store and bought condoms!" Sirius exclaimed.

"And I went to the store and bought doush!" James said, breaking up into hysterical laughs. Remus and Sirius though it was funny too, but the girls did not.

"Lets just keep playing, ok?" said Lily angrily.

"Right, I went to the store and bought egg plant." Remus said.

Finally, the game was done, with "I went to the store and bought zebra poo" from Sirius.

After ten minutes Lily's eyes were getting heavy. She was slowly drifting off when she was awoken.

"On the road again, I just can't wait to get on the road again..." Sirius sang loudly.

"Sirius!" whined everyone in the car. "Would you rather me sing a different song? Ok! Ninety-nine bottles of butterbeer on the wall, ninety-nine bottles of butterbeer...."

One hour later....

"Take one down, pass it around 0 bottles of butterbeer on the waaaalll!"

Lily was quietly banging her head against the window, Ariel had her head shoved in her pillow, and Remus was holding his wand to his head.

"What you didn't like my singing?" Sirius asked.

Autumn glared at him.

"Only another hour til Orlando. That's where we're staying for the night, right Lily?" commented James.

"Yeah, it is."

They finally pulled into the parking lot of the Holiday Inn. Everyone stumbled out.

Sirius sniffed the air and said, "Florida smells different from Alabama."

"That's probably because we are no longer in the middle of nowhere," explained Ariel.

James walked into the front lobby and said, "We have a reservation."

"Name?" asked the woman behind the counter.

"Evans," said Lily, who had walked in behind James.

The woman looked at her distastefully and replied "Two rooms?"

"Yes, that's us," Lily said.

Sirius came in and leaned against the counter. He winked at the woman, who blushed. She then handed 4 keys to James and said "Two keys for each room."

Sirius was about to start a conversation with her, but Lily and James pulled him away. James parked the car and they all unloaded the car and began looking for their room.
