She smiled when he placed his hand on her thigh, placing her hand on his. Allie looked out the window, relaxing in her seat as they traveled. Before long they came to a spot where there were a couple of cars stranded behind a wreck in the middle of the road on the other side pointed towards Atlanta.
"Let's stop here while its still light, see if we can get some gas from those cars. I don't want to be stranded with no gas."
When Matt stopped the car Allie hopped out, letting Mandy out as well.
"Stay close girl, stay aware." Allie patted her head and Mandy trotted into the grass, sniffing around and keeping her ears open.
"She needed a bathroom break anyways." Allie smiled before moving to the cars with gas cans and a long clear rubber hose. Leaning next to the gas cap of one she looked at Matt. "Keep your eyes open, but pay attention so you know how in case you have to do this too."
She stuck the rubber hose in the gas cap and pushed a length in. When she thought she had enough in she blew into the hose and listened, hearing bubbles in the gas tank. Letting a length of the hose lay on the ground she stood up, sucking on the end of it and watching the hose. When it was mostly filled except for the last few inches from the end she capped the end with her thumb and lowered the hose. Quickly she stuck the end of the hose in the can and watched the gas flow into it.
"Guy taught me this a few months back, said it was basic physics, just a matter of being mindful of what you're doing." As Allie said that she noticed Mandy trot back and sit next to them, keeping her ears high.
