Sweet Home Chicago

Elwood's Concern/ A Brother's Love

Feeling her fedora start to lift off her head, Danielle took it off and put it in her bag. Looking at her watch she sighed. It was 3:00 in the afternoon and she was getting antsy. Elwood would have to pull over soon to get out and stretch. They'd been driving for about three hours now. To show Elwood that she wanted to get out she started to twitch and move around slightly.

Elwood looked at her and pulled over at the next exit into a parking lot. Danielle looked at him surprised.

"Yes, I can read your mind. You didn't know that?"Elwood chuckled.

"Yeah, some mind reader. If you really could read my mind then you would have sped this vehicle up and picked me up at the predetermined time of 9:30 A.M.," she replied with a smirk as she climbed over Elwood and over the door.

Jake shook his head and gave a low laugh. He loved watching those two go at it. It was very humorous actually. He opened his door and started to walk around , as the others followed suit.

Elwood, realizing what Dani had said leaped out of the car and started to walk with her. "So you where out side longer than you should have been. Haven't we talked about not being outside by yourself for long periods of time? Someone could have grabbed you and been off with you Dani. But then they would probably bring you back on account of your smart alec ways and your being bossy."

"Danielle smiled at him, "True. But Elwood, who is seriously going to kidnap me in Calumet City? I mean come on the worst crime that has ever been committed there is someone's five dollars being stolen. I mean come on."

Taking his glasses off he gave Dani that look that he gives her when he's serious. Ooo how she hates that look.

"Danielle Emma Joliet Blues, I'm serious. I mean yeah it's ok in Calumet City, but elsewhere, no it's not all right. I mean look at that guy over there," he said pointing to a hobo who was digging in some garbage cans on the nearby street corner," He could easily do it. Please don't do it again. Ok?"

Dani looked at him and into his blue eyes. How she loved his eyes. But yet she could hate them too. His eyes could be so sincere, like now . But other times his eyes could be as cold as anything.

Nodding she replied without any hint of sarcasm, "Yes sir."

Putting his glasses back on and looking at his watch he walked over and put his arm around Danielle and they headed back to the Blues mobile.

"Hey you guys come on, the gig starts in a few hours and we're thirty minutes away, "Elwood exclaimed! Everyone headed back to the appropriate vehicle and they took off for Chicago.
