After the fourth bug carcass had wedged in between my two front teeth, I had a drastic change of heart about riding in Zep’s truck bed. What seemed like an impressive display of independence outside the office, now felt more like a one-way ticket to YouTube infamy. At every intersection and stoplight, cars full of amused onlookers pulled up beside me, snapped pictures, and took lengthy videos with what I assumed to be a colorful running commentary.

To be fair, a screaming woman in a business suit, swatting suicide bug bombs while holding on for dear life must have been a rare find.

Still aggravated at the turn of events, I swore that if I made it out alive, first thing Saturday morning I’d visit small compact car dealership and get my own wheels. Daddy had meant for us to share the truck equally. However, Savannah ran off to Pope’s with it or took off from work early to meet him on a regular basis. Inevitably, she’d leave me to mooch a ride off the one person I had no business being alone with in a car.

And after Zep’s unbearable taunts all day, I didn’t trust myself around him.

He hated me. He wanted me. He mercilessly pushed my buttons and enjoyed the show as I imploded. I had no idea what his endgame was, nor did I plan to find out. While I agonized over putting the brakes on whatever was brewing between us, he’d already moved on with someone else before I changed the sheets.

Unfortunately for him, that certain someone else needed a good dye job and an exfoliator. There was no accounting for taste.

As Zep maneuvered the truck to hit every pothole and imperfection on the road, I cursed and gave him a one-finger wave through the cab window. What the hell did he see in that woman? Sure, I supposed on a purely aesthetic level, she could be considered pretty…if you were into the nipped, tucked, enhanced, and permanently surprised look. But, what she had going on upstairs didn’t mesh with what I knew of the person Zep was today. He struck me as a man who got off on a good conversation just as much as a good fuck. And, add them together? Well, a woman might as well hang a cape on the front of her pussy and spend her spare time saving the world. Because she ruled it.

Locked in a fantasy world of action hero role play with a very rugged and bearded Superman, I neglected to notice the turn he’d made from the highway onto a dusty dirt road. I was oblivious to the miles of trees and wildlife until it was too late.

Completely out of my element, I gripped the side of the truck bed until my fingers turned a blinding shade of white. Without a doubt, I knew we were surrounded by starved animals because as the truck bounced, dozens of glowing, hungry eyes appeared out of nowhere and stared at me like I was their long-awaited for meals-on-wheels.
