Where did I go?

Mikey plugs in his phone and starts Pandora. As he pulls onto the main street, I yank the cord out of his phone. "What the h-" "If we're going back in time, we're doing it the right way," I cut off Mike's protests and pop a Green Day CD into the player. He smiles and taps his fingers on the steering wheel.

"So will you tell me where we are going now?" I ask him.
"Of course not."

Should've expected his answer. I slouch in my chair and watch the scenery. We are leaving the city and heading towards the suburbs. I guess I doze off, because next thing I know Mike is shaking my arm. "Wakey wakey!" I blink and rub my eyes. Outside the car window is a familiar scene, finally. The uni-mart down the street from our high school. The go-to for snacks and cigarettes. A smile instantly spreads across my face. I get out of the car and go inside. Mike follows me in. He's heading for the Little Debbie snack cakes, no doubt about it. I head for the slushee machine. We meet back at the cash register with a blue raspberry slushee and swiss rolls. Mike and I came here every Friday after school. We get back in the car with our sweets. My slushee tastes like blue heaven. I chug it, and Mike just watches with a grin.

"Thank you for taking me here. You don't understand how much I needed that."

Mike shakes his head. "That wasn't the main attraction." He pulls the car into our school's parking lot. "This is." He opens my door for me and grabs my hand. "C'mon."

We head around the building to the benches outside the cafeteria. Of course. It's our spot. The group claimed the benches every sixth period. I sit on one of them. "This is perfection." Mikey sits next to me. "So you remember this?"

I remember all of it. I didn't lose my high school memories. It's so great to know where I am, it's hard to explain how amazing it feels.

Mike opens one of his swiss rolls. "This was where we first met. Sophomore year. You were sitting out here like a weird girl. And of course I felt bad for you so I came out to talk to you."

I shake my head. "You're telling it wrong. You were dared to come talk to me by Jaime." He smiles. "Whatever, I think I was a gentlemen back then."

He actually was though, now that I think about it. Mike was always there. We had one major fight, but it only lasted six hours cause I had some juicy gossip to tell him. All of the memories of our adventures rush over me. I could stay here forever, but Mike starts to head to the car. I run after him. "Where to next?"

"You'll see!"
