This is my submission for the April 3 things Challenge set by Lilac Mermaid. I know it's May and that I should also be sleeping… But what the hell….

Her eyes narrowed at him. Yep, it was definitely too soon.

She finally snapped as the car in front of them pulled over to the side of the road, it was the first snowfall of the season that was causing a delay in their journey north, to see Henry's parents.

Henry noticed her knuckles were blanched white as she gripped the wheel tightly between her fingers, hissing "definitely, too soon" at him.

Henry paused attempting to stifle a laugh that threatened to escape him. He gripped his thigh tightly to stop himself from laughing, hoping the pain would distract him enough. It worked until he pictured Elizabeth slapping the old man's ass in the gas station.

The shock on his face as the old man turned around to see who had assaulted him. The shriek of surprise that escaped Elizabeth's mouth as she realised it wasn't Henry and the torrent of apologies that followed.

Henry had stood behind her watching the whole thing, laughing hysterically, holding the big bag of popcorn that Elizabeth had requested.

He couldn't hold it in any longer and he exploded once again chuckling wholeheartedly.

"Henry!" her pleas loud over his laughter.

In between fits of giggles he apologised, wiping his eyes on his sleeves, trying to catch his breath. "Babe, it was just to funny"

"It wasn't" she said as she peered out the windscreen and into the falling snow, the lights changed from red to green and she began to move off again.

"What can I do to make it up to you?" he reached his hand over to her thigh and squeezed it gently.

"Apart from not mentioning it to your parents?" She began, "or ever again… Look out for a food place and buy me some sweet potato fries because this journey is taking forever"

"OK, done" Henry peered out the window of the car, looking ahead for a drive thru, when he spotted a bingo hall in the distance. "Maybe you would prefer to stop up here, at this bingo Hall? Seeing as you are into the older man?"

"Sweet potato fries and a hot dog, keep it up McCord and ice cream will be next and we will never get there!"
