Losing Daylight

 Ernesto's P.O.V

We just got on the highway and I was already prepared to swerve us down a ditch. I kept deadpanning Sadiq every time he practically begged for my forgiveness. It sounds like I'm the one who's overreacting but every second I have to spend with that she-devil is not a good one.

My head was throbbing from the headache everyone was giving me. Apparently Frankie and Liam we re arguing over who would when in a race if they were both missing one of there left toes.  Seriously I don't understand either but that is what's happening.

I go to check my phone to see how far we are from Cornwall. Fortunately, GPS is something that still exists in this dimension. Or at least until the satellite systems shut themselves down.

" You are exactly 367 miles away from your destination." said the robotic voice. "Uh, God kill me now" I murmured to myself laying my head on the steering wheel. Why did I end up been the driver? This was Sadiq's idea in the first place for christ's sake.

"ERNESTO! RED LIGHT! RED LIGHT!" yelled Holly from the back. I quicky hit the breaks stopping the car right in front of the group of kids crossing the street.

"Watch where ya goin' ya bloke!" yelled a young blond-haired boy glaring at me. I replied by honking the horn at him. Apparently he didn't the hint at continued to stand in the middle of the road. " You really don't want to push me right now I said now completely leaning out of the window.

Not only was I pissed already but this guy was just being blatantly annoying at this point. Quite frankly I'd be very happy to just run him over right now. He crossed his arm and stood his stance. I sighed and backed up the car a bit. It's his funeral.

I floored it towards the boy and he took off running. Lucky for him this van doesn't go very fast. I shrugged of my attempt of almost flattening someone and got back on the road. After I informed Liam and Frankie that one ,there entire conversation is stupid and two ,the loss of a toes doesn't change far quick you can go the drive was surprisingly quiet.

I turned to look at Sadiq who was completely knocked out in the seat next to me. I smirked at his sleeping figure. I was so glad I finally had someone in my life that I truly cared for.   Other than Holly of course, I didn't just get her pregnant for nothing.

"You are exactly 294 miles away from your destination." said the robotic voice. This is going to be even longer than I thought.

"You are 173 miles away from your destination."

We had finally gotten out of the cornfields I was used to and was finally back in the city. There were just skyscrapers had far as the eyes could see. Fancy hotels and Old Business Buildings aligned the roads. Tons of people were walking around Manchester. Everyone was commenting on the scenery except for me and Sadiq since he was still sleeping soundly next to me.

The headache had subsided itself for now but it wouldn't last for long. We took a "quick" pit stop at the gas station. We meaning Holly, Serena, Jeff, Tia, and I (Since everyone was asleep) all piled out of the car at into the Quick Trip. Of course places like this weren't really operated any more so it looked like a pig sty.

The shelves were all relatively empty and anything worth salvaging was stolen already. I walked into the back and stared to look for the key to the storage closet. I found it on the counter under some shards of broken glass.

I found a couple of gallons of gas in the storage room and took them out to the car.  After Holly we t to the bathroom about five times in a row we were finally able to leave. "Hey Ern, why do ya think gas stations kept extra gas in storage rooms anyway?" said Jeffery from behind me.

"Quite frankly Jeff I have no idea. But I do know that if we don't get on the road soon were going to be stuck in the middle of cornfield for the night." I said back. We only had about 4 or 5 more hours of daylight left.

I started to drive as quickly as possible through the streets of Manchester. We were back in cornfields when Sadiq got back up. The black-haired boy stretched out his limbs and wiped his eyes. He slumped back down in his seat. "How long 'ave I been asleep Ern?" he murmured.

"Um, for about the last 84 miles. Give or Take a few. Ya must have been pretty tired, did you get any sleep last night?"

"Well, don't enough apparently." he chuckled. It was probably seven o'clock by now and we weren't going to make it to Cornwall in time. I decided that we should just stay at a hotel for the night. I stopped at the nearest one I could see.

After I woke everyone up we started to walk into the small motel. There was only a few people staying here since we were still deep in the country and it definitely wasn't short on vacancies.

One person was standing in line in front of us. He was a couple inches shorter than me and had sandy blonde hair with dark brown highlights. He had baby blue eyes with specks of green in them. He kept staring at his phone since the guest clerk still hadn't came to the desk yet.

I could have sworn the I knew him from somewhere. Maybe it was the lip piercing that through me off. Maybe he was on a TV show or something. He sort of reminded me of..Wait it can't be.

" Patty is that you?!" I exclaimed.

"Ernesto? Is that you?"
