Car-san

We've been driving on the highway for a couple of minutes and being the geography-idiot that I was, I had to ask Craige where we were going. 

He smiled. "I thought you would like to have a view of the ocean after being holed up in the house for almost two whole months."

"That would be nice!" A smile formed on my lips, impressed by his choice of location. But I frowned when I finally managed to read one of the sign boards. "West Coast?"

He stiffened as he willed himself to not turn his head. "Yes. You've been there before?"
