Getting Gas.

So, I get off work, drive home, realize my tank is empty and stop at the only gas station in Pierce City. It's eleven o'clock at night and I'm praying that the gas-station is still open. I get out of my car walk over to the pump and I hear the intercom turn on. "Sorry, we're closed." Oh brilliant! I get back in my car and pull out of the lot.

As I'm pulling out I notice the police car sitting in front of me on the other side of the street. I hadn't bothered to turn on my blinker and that was the only thing I can think of as I watch the police car. As I pass I glance back in my rear-view mirror. One of my greatest nightmares has come true. The police car is following me. It isn't long before the blue and red lights turn on. I pull over, heart pounding, and slip out my diver's license. This has never happened to me before. I really have no idea what I'm doing.

I wait, and within seconds the officer is next to my car with a flashlight. "You don't have your headlights on," he says. My first thoughts are 'Yes they are. Why can I see the road?' But then I realize that I really don't have them on and that the only way I can see the road is because I'm in town. "Oh," I say, flipping them on, "Thanks!" The officer laughs and states that I would have noticed when I got out of town and he even commented on how I smelt (which was like pizza). Anyway... that's about it.
