"Even if it's a hassle, I'm going because my brother asked."

Fiona twirled a pencil between her fingers, recalling how she'd promised ages ago to bring Nash's mom some design sketches. Her memory, alas, wasn't the sharpest over time.

"They'll love you, Fiona," Jackson reassured her.

Nash snorted, "Yeah, right!"

Jackson stayed cool and composed, calmly telling the driver, "Drop Nash off at the next exit."

Nash stared in disbelief, "What??"

"Jackson, we're on the highway!"

"Exactly, it'll be harder for you to catch a ride back."
