"A road trip? The summer before college, before everything changes, and you want to go on a road trip?" Andrew exclaimed as Bender finished proposing his idea. It was just the two of them; the girls were out shopping and Brian was finishing college prep. Bender nodded.

"Yeah. And that's why. Things a going to be different. You and Allison are getting married, Brian is going to some fancy law school, and I'm hoping I can work up the nerve to ask Claire to marry me. This summer is our last summer as free teenagers and may be our last summer together."

Andrew looked at him.

"You're going to ask Claire to marry you?" he asked. Bender looked at him.

"Out of everything I just said, that's the only thing you heard? But, yes, I'm going to ask her to marry me. I got the ring last week." Bender replied. Andrew grinned.

"So, that's the real reason for this trip, huh?" he teased. Bender rolled his eyes.

"No. Look, do you want to do this or not?"

"Yeah, sure. What's the worst thing that could happen, right?"

"Hey, Ali, Bender was talking about doing a summer roadtrip with the gang. And he's going to propose to Claire. You up for it?" Andrew asked as his fiancée cooked dinner. She stopped and looked at him.

"Did you say that John is proposing to Claire?" she asked. He nodded and she grinned, turning back to the stove.

"Roadtrip before real life starts sounds nice. What's the worse that could go wrong?"

Brian glanced out his window as something hard hit the pane. He did a double take when he realized who was outside. He opened the window and leaned out.

"What do you want, Bender?" he asked.

"We're going on a road trip Saturday. Better have your bags packed or I'm leaving you here." Bender replied, turning back to his truck.

"Bender, I can't leave. Mom's put me on lockdown until college starts."

"Be a rebel, Big Bri. See you Saturday." Bender told him before driving off. Brian sighed and shut the window.

"That man is impossible." he muttered and began packing.

"Cherry! I'm home!" Bender said as he walked into the apartment he shared with Claire. She appeared from their bedroom.

"Hey. How was your day with Andy?" she asked, kissing him on the cheek.

"Good. You know that roadtrip I've been wanting to take? Sporto agreed it was a good idea. He and Allison and Brian are all in."

"When are we leaving?"

"Saturday."

"Ok. Dinner's ready if you're hungry." she told him, walking into the kitchen. With a grin, he followed.

That is the first chapter of Summer Roadtrip: a Breakfast Club fanfic. I hope you enjoyed it. I already have the next three chapters written. I don't know how long this story is going to be. I'm going to go until my muse decides to quit.
