      Axi, seize ans, est une fille bien sage et bonne eleve. Surtout pas du genre a s attirer des ennuis. Alors, forcement, quand elle propose au beaucoup moins raisonnable Robinson, son meilleur ami, de secher les cours et fuguer pour traverser les Etats-Unis, il n en croit pas ses oreilles. Il se laisse finalement convaincre quand il comprend que le projet de son amie est murement reflechi: des etapes sont prevues, elle a rassemble du materiel et surtout economise depuis cinq ans en faisant du baby-sitting pour payer les trajets d autocar et les depenses courantes. Robinson, secretement amoureux, accepte. Il modifie cependant la nature du voyage en volant une Harley Davidson. Puis, il volera une voiture, et ainsi de suite. Rapidement grises par le vent d independance qui souffle sur leur epopee, les adolescents laissent les problemes de leur quotidien loin derriere eux. Jusqu au jour ou, apres des mois de remission, le cancer de Robinson se reveille. "
