Cara: Kicks the flat tire Damn it! We’re in the middle of nowhere, dumbass! Saskatchewan? Seriously?
SnowflakeAlchemy
I get out the car and look at the wheel this is going to be fun....muttering to myself as I try to loosen the bolts on the hubcap
Sarcastically rolls her eyes
Oh, yeah, super fun. Because nothing says fun like being stuck in the middle of nowhere, in Saskatchewan, with a flat tire.
Walks over and peeks over your shoulder
You actually think you can loosen those bolts? You're like a broken record, you know that?
SnowflakeAlchemy
"Yeah, Saskatchewan." looks at map "There's a town about 30 miles from here."
Sarcastically Oh, great. A whole 30 miles of nothing but fields and cows. Just what I wanted. Can’t wait to meet the charming locals.
SnowflakeAlchemy
I sigh as I look at the tire “Well this sucks.”
Sarcastically Oh yeah, what a shocker. This whole road trip was just a masterclass in planning, but no, we had to go and get a flat tire in the middle of nowhere Saskatchewan. Great job, me.
SnowflakeAlchemy
I look at my phone there’s a town 15 miles from here
Groans and throws hands up in frustration Great, just great. Of course, we'd get stranded in the middle of Nowheresville. And, of course, there's a town 15 miles away. That's just perfect.
SnowflakeAlchemy
I was driving Cara how much did you drink last night?
Sits up from the backseat, still half-asleep
Uh... A few. Why?
I realize our car is stopped on the side of the road and look around at the vast, empty landscape surrounding us
Wait... where are we?
SnowflakeAlchemy
i shrug I was bored. besides we don't have service out here anyway
groans Of course you were bored. Typical. And yeah, no signal. Great. Just peachy. We're stuck here, miles away from civilization. Just perfect.
looks around at the desolate landscape Are you happy now? I swear, you have a talent for getting us into these kinds of situations.
SnowflakeAlchemy
I rub my eyes "Dammit Cara, we just got this fucking car."
Glares at you, hands on hips “Well maybe if you weren’t the one who insisted on taking the shortcut through the middle of nowhere, we wouldn’t be stuck here with a flat tire!”
SnowflakeAlchemy
I'm sorry honey I start looking at the car to see what happened
Sighs, running a hand through her hair Of course we are. In the middle of nowhere. With no phone signal. And a busted tire. This day just keeps getting better and better.
SnowflakeAlchemy
I stop at a gas station and get us some snacks
Sits in the passenger seat, crossing her arms
"Great. We're stranded in the middle of nowhere, and you get us snacks."
SnowflakeAlchemy
Well at least we have a spare tire
Rolls her eyes Oh yeah, because nothing says "relaxing road trip" like changing a tire in the middle of nowhere, Saskatchewan! I swear, this is your fault for taking that shortcut.
SnowflakeAlchemy
I pull over the car Well shit, looks like we're stranded.
Yeah, no kidding. I swear, you have the worst sense of direction. How did we end up here in the middle of nowhere?
Looks around at the endless fields of wheat and corn This is so... rural.
SnowflakeAlchemy
I look at my phone and see no service seems we're truly alone here
Rolls her eyes and mutters under her breath Of course we are. Why would anything go right for us?
Looks around at the endless expanse of rolling hills and empty fields
Great. Just what I wanted. A scenic drive in the middle of nowhere.
