Listening to music, I made a travel play list and I got totally inspired. Hope you like!

The Great Escape by Boys like Girls
"Five. Four. Three. Two. One!" The students in Kitty and Rogue's last class of the day counted off as they stared at the little red second hand. The bell rang and everyone threw their papers in the air. Kitty was surrounded by girls and guys wishing her a good summer as she made her way out the door, doing last minute yearbook signing. Rogue broke through the crowd and waited for her best friend by the lockers.
"Love you too! See ya next year!" Kitty called a final goodbye and Rogue grabbed her wrist with a gloved hand.
"Come on Kitty! The guys are waitin!" The Goth said as she tugged Kitty through the streaming students. Kitty laughed and waved to her friends as she passed them.
"Ohmygod Rogue I can't believe we're gonna be juniors!" Kitty squealed. Rogue rolled her eyes and smiled at the excited girl.
"Well right now I'm just excited to get out of here," she replied. They hurried down the front steps of Bayville High and ran to where Kurt Wagner and Evan Daniels were waiting for them in Kurt's blue convertible. Evan was in the backseat and Kurt honked the horn, urging the girl's to hurry.
"Dude, vat took you so long?" Kurt asked as the girls jumped in.
"Sorry Kurt. Kitty has a large fan base ya know," Rogue replied, buckling in next to Evan. Kitty strapped herself in and laughed.
"It's not my fault!" she insisted as Kurt revved the engine and they sped off. Kurt lowered the top and turned the radio on up loud. 'The great escape' by Boys likes Girls thundered out with its opening bars.
Paper bags and plastic hearts
All belongings in shopping carts
Goodbye
But we got one more night
Let's get drunk and ride around
And make peace with an empty sound
We can make it right
The four mutants laughed and enjoyed the wind and the sun as they sped towards home.
Throw it away, forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
And we won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
Cause we are finally free tonight
Kitty started singing along and the other three joined in on the chorus, each singing as loud as they could, creating a jumbled, beautiful but disastrous harmony. They burst into laughter and Evan threw his hands in the air.
"Woo hoo! Freedom here we come!" He shouted.
"Huzzah!" Shouted Kitty.
"Huzzah!" Kurt echoed. They looked at Rogue who gave a smile and shrugged.
"HUZZAH!" She yelled as they passed the snobs from their school. The cheerleaders in the expensive car stared at the vintage convertible, at Rogue as she laughed, letting go of everything. The three mutants stared back at the snobs and after a moment, Kurt flicked off his hologram for a mere two and a half seconds.
"Boo!" He yelled and slammed on the gas as the light turned green. One of the cheerleaders fainted and the others just stared. The mutants were crying with laughter.
Tonight will change our lives
It's so good to be by your side
But we'll cry
We won't give up the fight
We'll scream loud at the top of our lungs
And they'll think its just cause we're young
The world feels so alive
"Oh my god my ribs," Kitty gasped for air, clutching her sides.
"You look awful," Evan choked out, pointing at Rogue. Her Gothic makeup was streaking down the sides of her face as tears of laughter poured from her dark green eyes. She looked at herself in the mirror and cracked up all over again.
"Oh mah God Ah do!" She screamed.
"School's out!" Kurt yelled.
"Scream and shout!" Kitty added. People on the sidewalk stared as the teens drove past, most likely over the speed limit.
Throw it away forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
And we won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
Cause we are finally free tonight
"Kurt where are we?" Kitty managed as she calmed down.
"We're taking the scenic route!" He shouted back.
All of the wasted time
Hours that were left behind
Answers that we'll never find
They don't mean a thing tonight
The teens calmed down and sang along, not asking Kurt where they were or where they were going. The teens were all extremely close and they were family to one another. Kurt and Rogue were literally related.
Throw it away
Forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Throw it away forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a word they say
They don't know us anyway
Kurt turned a corner and looked up at the mirror between the driver's seat and the passenger seat back at Evan. Evan gave him a thumbs up. Kitty shot Kurt a look and he shrugged and grinned mischievously.
Throw it away forget yesterday
We'll make the great escape
We won't hear a words they say
They don't know us anyway
Watch it burn
Let it die
Cause we are finally free tonight.
