I climb out of the 18 wheeler at the truck stop and wave good-bye to the driver. I heft my canvas bag over my shoulder and walk into the restaurant. It's midday - lunchtime - and the restaurant is filled with truckers going in every direction. As I walk into the restaurant, I feel all eyes on me, but I'm used to that.
At 20, I've been on the road since I was 18, leaving home and never looking back. Not sure where to go, I wound up hitting various cities and truck stops, picking up rides whenever I can going wherever those wheels take us for as long as I or the driver want. I guess I'm what most people call a "free spirit" - others would say "tramp". I could care less.
This day, I'm wearing cut off shorts, a tight tank top and sandals. The shorts only serve to highlight my tanned, trim legs, and the tank top shows off my slightly than larger breasts to perfection. My long auburn hair curls around my face and shoulders and hangs down my back. My green eyes still have that look of innocence about them.
The waitress comes up and is about to tell me to leave. I fish in my pocket and pull out a 20.
"A booth, please, if you don't mind."
A scowl on her face she leads me to the back of the restaurant. As I pass the truckers, feel their eyes frankly appraising me. I put a little extra wiggle into my walk as I make my way to the booth.
"Coffee for now."
I settle into the booth, and rummage in my bag for a mirror. A quick check confirms that all is right with the world. The coffee arrives, and I stir a little Equal into it.
Well, the ride just ended with the last trucker - need a new ride, and quick. I noticed there were no motels around here, and I could only drink so much coffee.
Suddenly I look up and see a man approach my table. Yes, I've seen that look before - and I give him a welcoming smile. Yes, I do believe my ride just arrived.
OOC: This is an open thread for anyone who wants to try a cross-country trucking adventure. Looking for one "trucker" (maybe 2?) - anyone interested in playing??
