theme: Don't Stop Believin'

"We've already been around here like 9 times. It feels like we're just going around in circles."

Rigby, sitting in the passenger's seat, was rapidly clicking and pressing down the buttons of his handheld, pumped to full volume.

"I swear, if I see that stupid tree again..." "Don't worry, Rigby," Eileen insisted, making a left turn.

"We'll be there soon enough."

Rigby rolled his eyes and converted his attention back to the game.

Pausing momentarily, Eileen's pupils darted sideways.

"Do... uh," she began. "Do you mind if I turn on the radio?"

"Psh. Whatever," he scoffed, not looking up. "As long as you don't make me loose my concentration."

Her hand outstretched for the dial.

Green light.

She didn't have much consent with the station (or the song, for that matter) as her fingers flew back to grasping the leather wheel.

As the mini van lurched forward, Journey's most recognizable song, Don't Stop Believing, began to blare through the speakers, startling them both.

After toning it down a notch, Eileen squealed, "This is my favorite song. Period!"

Rigby, on the other hand, was exceedingly annoyed of the music that filled her car to its brim.

"I've heard better," he commented, trying to ease his focus back onto his videogame.

"Strangers, waiting... up and down the boulevard," Eileen sang along, in sync with the 80's hit single.

"Come on, Rigby!" she shouted over the roar of the speakers, trying to entice him. "You know you want to!"

"I think I'll pass." He scooted to the edge of his seat, pressing up against the door.

"Your loss," Eileen said as she resumed singing.

"Streetlight, people... living just to find emotion!"

Rigby bit his lip, but didn't say anything.

"Hiding... somewhere in the niiiiighht!"

Rigby sighed, setting the console down in his lap. During the guitar riff, he decided that she worn him down enough. He joined her in the following verse.

"Don't stop, believing!" the two sang in unison.

A/N: Don't Stop Believing belongs to Journey, of course. Sorry I haven't posted in a week! Too caught up in playing Portal 2 :P

Anyways, is anyone else excited for "Simon and Marcy" and "A Bunch of Full-Grown Geese" airing this Monday?!

PS- Just earned a state-wide prize for short stories I submitted! huzzah~
