He flashed the headlights several times, grumbling as he did so. Vincent glanced at his friend, noting that Jake’s hands were gripping the wheel tightly. The offending car flashed past them, disappearing into the rainy night as quickly as it had appeared.
“Jake, take a deep breath. We don’t want you having one of your turns, do we? We’re nearly late for the party already, and you know how Markus gets if people aren’t on time. We really don’t have time to stop.”
“Arseholes!” Jake spat out. “Alright, alright. You’re right. I’ve got it under control.”
He started breathing in slowly, holding his breath then letting the air out equally slowly. The knot in Vincent’s stomach eased.
