<you did absolutely correctly, good job. I trust you to work the characters when necessary and not make them act untrue to themselves. ^^ >
They passed some patrol cars screaming back the way they had come, lights and sirens blazing. It was not yet midnight, there were still people out and about, but T-Bone got to the interstate without incident. And also without conversation.
As they got up to highway speeds, heading northward, T-Bone finally relaxed. Then he cursed. "Goddamnit, Levins. If you're gonna try to get yourself killed, at least do the job right."
Levins just muttered something indistinct and stared out the window into the night.
T-Bone grunted. "Well, we got out of there before they could find Tiny's room key and track us down at the motel. But we have to lay low. We've still got a couple hundred dollars, and... I spent a summer working in this tiny little town once, up north from here. Lots of vacation homes, cabins and the like. Empty most of the year, with a security system or something; a domestic home system should be a cake-walk, even with rusty skills. We can find a place and lay low. And it'll have more room than a motel, so it won't feel as claustrophobic."
He didn't ask if the plan was all right, he just said it as if it was decreed. Which, given her position and Levins recent judgment, was appropriate.
