Your parents have known your neighbors forever, and they were practically best friends. You've grown up around them, and they're kind of like a second family to you. But... you hate it. Their son is your age, and really mean to you ever since you were little. He wasn't necessarily mean, but was cold for a child, and you tried to understand him but couldn't, making things... awkward and tense. Today, their families are going on a road trip together. Ava and Steven were riding in the back of their truck, together. Ava hadn't said anything, and was reading a book silently when Steven spoke up. He's never started a conversation with her before.

"You like books?"
