More Specifically, Me Maxine
Oh Canada, so muchLove
Maxine’s POV
“Are we in Canada yet?” I whine.
“We still have another five minutes before customs child.” Razor says to me.
“But I’m bored.” I complain more.
“Shut up and eat your muffin.” My friend says, grabbing a muffin from the bag of treats and stuffing it in my mouth while still keeping her eyes on the road.
“Fine.” I say, taking out the blueberry muffin from my mouth.
“Razor do you even know where we're at?” Martin asks.
“We are now nearing Champlain–St. Bernard de Lacolle Border Crossing”
“Does Maxine have a passport?” Martin questions.
“Nope.”
“Then how is she going to get over the border?”
“My mom knows people, I texted her earlier we were going to end up at this border patrol station so they already know ahead of time that we’re coming.” Razor says. “Now shush, we’re next up.”
“Id’s and passports please.” The border patrol says.
“My mom knows you, I’m Faris Robins daughter, Razor Robins. She called in earlier about crossing the border.”
“Oh come on hurry up!” The car says behind us.
Razor sticks her body out the window and yells at the person. “Bitch shut your damn face I haven’t even been here five minutes.”
“I need proof you're her daughter miss.”
“Want me to call her?”
“Please.”
Razor calls up her mom and I hear her screaming over the phone, saying things like why can’t they believe her and just get her over the damn border.
The lady behind us starts yelling again and thats when Razor has had enough of it so she gets out of the car and starts screaming at the woman.
“Bitch you better stop yelling at us or I can get you arrested for harassment and I know people that can make you forgotten so if you fucking bother us again I can do that.”
“Oh god Razor.” I say shaking my head, still in the car.
“I’ll go get her.” Martin says, getting out of the car.
“I’m so sorry miss, my sister is a bit crazy.” The older man says, throwing Razor over his shoulder and lying about her being his sister.
“Martin put me the hell down I wasn’t finished with the little shit!”
“Not happening, now while you calm down you get to hang with Justin in the back and I’ll drive.” Martin says, setting her in the back and getting up front.
“I’m so sorry for that, the Robins’ are a bit crazy.” The oldest says to the border patrol man.
“It’s okay, not many funny things happen around here. Now here’s Razor’s phone back, I talked to her mother and its okay, you're clear to go. Have fun in Canada.”
“Thank you sir.” Martin tells the man before driving off and totally breaking out on Razor.
“What the fuck was that Razor?” He exclaims.
“She was a bitchy ass fuck, what can I say?” Razor says nonchalantly.
“Eh you have a point.” Martin agrees. “Where are we meeting the gang anyway?”
“Tim Horton’s over in Toronto.”
“Are you really telling me I’m driving six hours to meet Matt and Leda?”
“I didn’t say you have to do it, you just shoved me in here with Smelly.”
“I’m not smelly!” Justin says, waking up from his slumber finally.
She throws deodorant at his head and says something.
“Mr. Deodorant says otherwise.”
“Razor what is your problem, you’ve been acting more of a bitch than normal.” Martin says.
“I dunno, I haven’t taken my meds in a while.” She says.
“What meds?” Martin says seriously.
“Didn’t I tell you I get bad anger strikes and I have to take meds to keep them from happening asshole?”
“Where are your meds?”
“With my mom.”
“I am not driving ten hours to get your meds Razor, is there something that is over the counter I can get for you?”
“A Rockstar Energy drink in PerfectBerry mixed with Rockstar Energy SuperSours in Green Apple and white chocolate.”
“Oh god, I’m going to pull over and call your mom to make sure you're right on that because I am not letting you go crazy on me.” Martin says and then pulls over to call Razor’s mom.
He goes through his contacts and then we all hear Martin’s part of the conversation.
“Hey Faris? Does Razor takes meds?”
“Oh okay, just making sure because she’s been being a pain to everyone around her.”
“Am I on the journey, yeah. Maxine could get all the help she can get, plus I wanted to see Leda and Matt.”
“That’s the issue, we don’t have the meds. Razor was saying that if we mix a Rockstar PerfectBerry with a SuperSours Green Apple and let her have some white chocolate that it will be decent enough for her anger to go down.”
“No chocolate just the Rockstars? Okay thanks Faris. Have a good day.” And then Martin hangs up the phone.
“You were right Razor, but I’m not getting the chocolate.”
“Bitch.” Razor says to him.
Martin just turns the radio onto Green Day’s song Boulevard of Broken Dreams and I quietly sing along until we get to a store called Quickies’.
“Justin stay in the car with Razor, Maxine and I are going to go in.”
“Yes captain Martin!” Justin salutes.
Martin and I go in the store and look for the Rockstars, also getting a water bottle to shake up the mixture.
Before we go off to pay for everything I pull Martin to the side to ask him something.
“Martin?” I ask.
“Yeah Maxine?”
“Why did you want me to come in with you?”
“Because I thought you needed to get away for a moment. I know how Razor can be when she is like this. Have you ever seen her like this?”
“Not really, maybe once but overall no.”
“Well there is another reason why I came with.”
“What is it?”
“Because when Razor goes on long drives like this she can be very insane. I know she means well behind the anger but it can hurt on what she says. I’ve known her for years, the only reason why I asked her earlier was because I wanted to make sure to get what she needed. I care about the little booger.”
“Is there another reason?”
He scratches the back of his head and leans down to kiss me. I let him and then once his lips touch mine I feel a spark between the kiss. It doesn’t last long but I enjoyed it, even though being so wrong, I’m only a minor and he’s ten years older than me.
“Martin this is so wrong but I liked it.”
“Same, but we should pay for this stuff before Justin and Razor start killing each other.”
We end up paying for the stuff and a few extras like mint gum and a few bags of M&M’s, one for us and one for Justin and Razor to share.
As we walk out I ask Martin something important.
“What does this leave us? It’s illegal but I’ll be eighteen in July, that’s only in a few weeks.
“Well I was hoping you could be my girlfriend and forget about the law. No one will know.” He says.
“I’d love to be your girlfriend.” I say and we lock hands to the car to end up seeing Justin and Razor making out.
“Hi love birds!” I scream.
“It’s not what it looks like!” They both yell.
“Totally.” I say and roll my eyes.
“So are you two going out?” Martin says while getting in the front seat.
“Are we?” Razor asks Justin.
“Well would you take the honor of being my girlfriend?”
“Yes.” Razor replies, blushing.
“Okay then if you two are going out we also have an announcement. Maxine and I are going out.” Martin says, giving me a peck on the cheek.
“Yay we’re all in illegal relationships, now hand over the meds before I smack you.” Razor says.
“Alright, alright. Let me just mix it.” Martin says.
“And how are you going to mix it?” Justin says.
“Like this.” My boyfriend says, getting out the Rockstar Energy’s and putting them in the water bottle, then shaking.
“Drink it, I’m not leaving this parking lot until its gone.” Martin says stubbornly and handing off the mixture.
“Fine idiot.” Razor speaks, then chugging it.
After about five minutes she finishes it and then I toss the M&M’s in the back with them.
“Candy!” The blue haired girl says.
“Eat it all and you're dead Blade.” Justin says to his girlfriend.
“I still can’t believe we’re driving over six hours to get to Tim Horton’s.” Martin says.
“The GPS told us to go to that border station, therefore not making it my problem anymore.” Razor says.
“Shouldn’t you text Matt that we won’t be meeting them till tomorrow in the afternoon? I refuse to sleep in the car so I’m getting us a hotel for the night.”
“Okay, I’ll do that now.” Razor says, then taking out her phone to send a text message.
“Done. Do you want me to call up the hotel now?”
“Yeah, take my credit card from my bag but just get a room with two beds, I don’t want to spend more money than I have to.”
“Got ya.” The blue haired girl says, calling up a hotel after looking one up on her white iPhone 5.
“We’re all good, now just for a nice long drive to the Metro Hotel.”
“How much was the room for a night?”
“$144 dollars a night, I thought I could get the most expensive hotel in London.”
“Are you trying to blow all my money?”
“Yes actually.” Razor says jokingly.
“Fuck you.”
“I love you too, now drive pony, drive.” She says, flipping him off and Martin groans, taking one hand off the steering wheel and taking his right in my left.
“Love you Maxine. Remember whatever happens between now and finding your dad, I’ll be there.”
“Thanks Martin.” I say, sighing contently and looking up at him while he keeps his eyes on the road, looking towards the long journey ahead of us, then I get a text from that unknown number again.
To: Maxine
From: Unknown Number
I hope you have fun on this journey Maxine, but just keep looking. Have fun with your lover, don’t let him hurt you though. If he does and you find me, I’ll kick his ass for you.
I ignore it and take in a nice slumber while Martin drives and the light chatter of Justin and Razor fills my ears.
“Are we in Canada yet?” I whine.
“We still have another five minutes before customs child.” Razor says to me.
“But I’m bored.” I complain more.
“Shut up and eat your muffin.” My friend says, grabbing a muffin from the bag of treats and stuffing it in my mouth while still keeping her eyes on the road.

Notes
Got some illegal love action and some more from that number woot!And I had to make Razor some what crazy okay, tell me you have to admit when she threw deodorant at Justin was funny.
Also I'm starting up school in the next few weeks so I may be slow on updating, I'm actually TRYING this year to keep a 3.0 (B) Average. I've been slacking off last school year and my grades we okay...it was a mix between C's and B's and some A's. So I'm actually going to STUDY for once and for people who know me I don't study, I slack and do everything at the last minute, book reports, reports in general and I did my homework on the bus for crying out loud. So yeah, I'm trying this year.
I might see my best friend next month over the September 20th weekend and I haven't seen her since I was still living in VA, I moved down to NC. I really hope I do since I miss her very much, she's Nickie on here so everyone tell her that she's awesome and that you love her. SHOW SOME HUSTLER LOVE YAY
This author's note is too long so for now I say
