Shane walked to the planet and ordered a cofee as Alice called her.
“You just walked out of there?” Alice asked on the phone. “No” Shane answered, not shure if she was capable to deal with Alices talking today. “You`re rude” Shane diden`t reply. “Uhm Al. I need to do something. I maybe gone for a few days ok?Bye” She could hear Alice almost yelling in the other end, not understanding a thing while Shane hung up on her. She started to walk to the sentral busstation. She watched delayted people running with their bags and it made her calm, knowing that she wasen`t running to anything. But were she running from something? She didden`t knew, but she felt good, that was all that mattered.

She sat down on a bench, which was warmed up by the hot sun, peeked down at her feet and thought about the issue that she didden`t bring any luggage. Then a bus came rolling into the station and stopped beside her. The bus looked worn out and tired, and so did the people in it, though there were just a few. Shane stepped in, and the bus driver looked at her. “Where you going?” he asked. “I don`t know” Shane said and giggeled to herself. “Well…I need 15 dollars. This is a long distance bus.” “Well, ok” Shane replied, and searched her pockets, gave him the money, and started to walk into the bus. This is crazy, she thought. The passangers looked sweaty and grupmy from the long ride, but in the end of the bus, there sat a young girl who caught Shanes attention. She looked like a total tomboy, but not butch. She still had an amazingly beautiful face. She had dark, halfshort shabby hair, and she reminded Shane of someone. Shane stood barely two feet away, paralyzed. The girl looked up at her, and made kind of a neutral what-are-you-looking-at expression which made Shane get back to reality. “Uhm is this seat taken?” Shane asked and moved closer. The girl just shook her head and looked out the window. Shane sat down while she took her jacket off. “***** hot” Shane said, waiting for a responds. “I mean…the weather. You know” Shane bit her lip in frustration over her own clumsiness. She wasen`t used to be nerveous. The girl turned, looked at Shane, and nodded without any expression on her face. Shane took a deep breath, wondering what she should say next. She could hear that the girl were listening to loud music. “Pixies, hu?” Shane searched for her attention and poked her carefully in the arm. The girl smiled a little. “Yeah” She said, like she were surprised over Shanes knowledge. “I love punk” Shane continuaded, though she had less knowledge than she pretended to have. The girl smiled again, and warmer this time. She raised her hand in salute. “Amber” she said. Shane felt more relaxed, and dared to smile. “Shane here”. There were a few minutes silence, and Shane stared at Ambers clothes. Very typical tomboy, she thought. A green t-shirt under a black hoodie with an open zipper, a couple of shabby jeans, a pair of black navy shoes, and a star tatoo on her arm which was covered with lots of black bonds. The girl could be somewhere between 18-21. She had buttons all over her purse, and it stood Bikini kill written on it. Punk/rock riot feminist, Shane thought, smiling. She looked up, and realized that Amber had noticed her watching. “I`m not a feminist” she laughed. Shane blushed. “So where are you heading?” Amber asked, and shane looked out the window, realizing that they where out of town. “Anywhere” she answered. Amber looked at her surprised. “You don`t know where you`re going?” she sounded amazed. “Nope” Shane replied and felt a little cool. “Wow, that`s impulsive” Amber said, as if it was something she`d always dreamed of. “So where are you going?”. Amber told that she was going to visit her uncle in Phoenix which she hadden`t met in 10 years. Shane watched her lips as she spoke. “Well, that`s nice” Shane said in an asking tone. “Not really. I just felt I had to…you know”. Shane smiled and peeked out the window again, looking at the sun that was going down. Yet another day is coming to an end she thought. “You got beautiful eyes” Amber whispered. Shane turned towards her and looked her in the eyes. She wanted so badly to kiss her. It had never been a problem before, but in this moment it felt impossible. She didden`t dare. Amber stroke a finger down Shanes cheek, and she looked surprised over her own confident. She leaned her cheek against Shanes, almost kissing her ear. “You wanna go to Phoenix with me?…”
