“Fox—”

“Dani.” He bends down and stares at me through the open window. “Stay here.”

I sigh and fall back into my seat. “Fine.” I reach for my sunglasses.

“Keep them on,”he warns, pointing a stiff finger at me.

I hold up my hands in surrender and he walks off toward the pawn shop.

There we go again. Bantering like before.

This is going to be one strange road trip.
