Ficlets

Shotgun

I nod and look at the Prius in front of me. The black prius with red streaks in front of me. I know she only got the colors because she liked them, not because they were Shade’s colors. She didn’t know Shade’s colors. I step outside after paying, letting my friends come out.

’’SHOTGUN!” I yell, “NO BLITZ !” I race to the tiny car, and hop in the front. A slightly mad Shade and a laughing Rachel walk to the car. I smile and look at Rachel.

“So let’s go!” I say, looking at the jet black upholstery. Beautiful car, truly beautiful. And Shade voices it.

“Aw, thanks Shade,” she says happily. I nod again in agreement as we arrive.
