Damn this heat, she thought as she cranked the windows of her old Chevy down. Damn this AC and damn this heat.
Bobbi's rusted out old pickup rumbled down the main drag, only a mile or two long, as she crept along going thirty. It wasn't that she had much respect for the speed limit so much as it was there were more people than usual out and she didn't care to add vehicular manslaughter to her already country-mile-long rap sheet. Whether it was the color of her skin or the fact that she had been the lead resident juvenile delinquent throughout high school--a trait passed on from her own parents--she didn't know, but the sheriff had always seemed to have it out for her. She hadn't spoken to her parents for months and had kept her nose relatively clean, despite hanging out with the same old group of friends, but Sheriff Jackson still didn't seem to believe she truly was staying out of trouble.
There she was, looking sweet as southern honey in her sundress. Bobbi grinned and catcalled, teasing her new friend from the window of her beaten up old truck. She wasn't the type of person she usually made friends with, but she was sweet and cute and Bobbi enjoyed spending time with her.
"Where ya goin'?" she called. "Sun's almost down, shouldn't you be runnin' on home like a good girl?" Fireflies danced around the girl in the gloaming light.
