the car was moving a little too fast for my liking and the driving was a little eratic. i just assumed the driver had something else on his mind. but that was quite alright with me because i did too. i couldn't quite put my finger on the feeling i was experiencing, but i think it felt a little like wanting to escape. and i closed my eyes and tried to drift off to anywhere else other than that car. i couldn't seem to daydream my way into another life fast enough. the clear night sky perfety showcased all the stars i cared to see. it was perfect for that particular night. the car was filled with teenagers who all seemed to fit perfectly together minus two. one was me and the other was someone pretending to be like everyone else. i couldn't seem to say this out loud but i hated the way she was holding my hand and the way she had her head on my shoulder. but i didn't say a word, because it wasn't exactly my place. the car was filled with lyrics of popular songs by popular artists that i didn't quite know the words to. so i mumbled along with the other people in the car and acted like i was best friends with the person who wrote it. just like everyone else, of course. i couldn't really help but let my mind wander and since i was so close to the house i grew up in, i was immediately reminded of my childhood. but suprisingly i couldn't think of a single memory that i could focus on long enough. but i turned my head and looked out the window and acted like i was deep in thought. that seemed to distract me long enough until we pulled up to our next destination. as the night came to a close and we all said our goodbyes, i was reminded of a scene in a movie that i saw in my early teenage years. this night ment more to me beause of that moment than i could ever let on because my childhood dream was finally coming true - my life was turning into the lives i saw in the movies and i couldn't wait for my next staring role.
