OOS: On the Road (again)

[amazonofthe21st]

Sleeping in a car isn't all that comfortable to begin with. Add that she'd chosen the backseat (cramped from Dean's things) and that her traveling companion snores like a damn chainsaw, and Rachel is bleary-eyed, glaring, and grumpy in the morning.

Metal on the stereo helps, though.

So does the mangled and broken Welcome to California! sign that

See, Dean is completely used to sleeping in the car. And he's bright-eyed and cheerful, almost obnoxiously so. (Compensating.)

"Wake up, sunshine! We're in the lovely state of California! Beaches and parties, here we come, right?"

Rachel grumbles.

A lot.

"Beach parties hosted by kraken with human-corpse hor d'eourves," she mumbles, slumped in her seat with her eyes only half-open and watching the desert scenery. She glances over at him and sighs to see his pure obnoxious cheerfulness. "You know it's gonna be hell, right? I'm going to be stunned if my mom's house is still standing."

"Why so cheerful?" Dean demands, and smirks. "What's the worst that could happen?"

"The kraken could snore."

She slumps in her seat a little further, eyes closing. "I've got," interrupted by a yawn, eyes dragged open to stare out the window again, "three places I wanna hit. S'up to you where you go while I'm doing it, but I dunno if what I was fighting is still gonna be there or not."
