The drive-in movie screen glowed brightly, casting long shadows across the rows of parked cars. Noah was settled in his car, waiting for "Jessica." He had planned to watch the movie, but the plot of the film seemed less interesting than the stars in the night sky.

Another car turned its headlights on. The driver also claimed to be with Jessica. Noah, feeling a distinct lack of any feeling, just sighed. This was going to be an interesting evening. He leaned back in his seat, preparing for the worst.
