On the road again and Noodle was bored beyond her mind ! It was close to one o’clock in the morning and all that Noodle could savor was the stripes and headlights on the road. A day prior to the trip, it so happens that Noodle struck a deal on a custom fender that just stole her heart. So while Russ and Murdoc went out drinking after the Humanz album release, Noodle managed to persuade 2D to tag along and fetch her stunning new guitar.
As a rule of thumb, the driver got to pick the music. And for the past 18 hours across Europe, Noodle grew more and more agitated that The Doors looped its tracks for the seventh time. But if there was something that really got on Noodle’s nerves was the awkward silence between two bodies(despite the static and sounds of the stereo). A strong crave for warmth between her teeth staggered her to pop the glovebox ajar, scavenging through for the a pack of smokes. To her avail, it appeared that the two of them burned through up all the cancer sticks only mere hours ago. She reclined in the crook of her seat, hopelessly defeated by boredom. Just before all hope died away, the gas light popped up on the dash and Noodle immediately knew it was time to pull over. ❝ Yes, finally... ❞ she tossed forward, scanning her surroundings for an exit off the highway.
It seemed like forever when they found the next gas station. It was in a little isolated area with tall piney trees all around. In this small outlet there was a small motel plaza with a built in diner restaurant to the side while the gas station sat up front with an abnormal monstrous mascot plastered everywhere on doors, windows, and boards within the small district. When they finally pulled up next to the the gas pump, Noodle was the first open the car door before slowly getting out of the vehicle. With aching legs and her thoughts and aspirations numbed, she skimmed around the hood to meet 2D on the other side.
Bright luminescence of the lights beaded down at the two gorillaz while in the background, a Elvis Presley song faintly played on the radio. As she took a brief look upon her partner in crime, she hadn’t realized how dead tired the chief was in his current state. Dark eyes with heavy rings scoped his features, unhealthily. His unruly form seemed to be flushed and exhausted from the painstaking drive. Noodle knew she would owe him big later on due to this spent trip.
❝ Hey, Dee... I think it’s been enough driving, you know? Maybe we should check in with that motel and call it a night. You look like you need the rest. ❞
