ride till we die

chapter 24 : fun and games

"FIRST RACERS TO THE STREET" hailee announces through a megaphone repeatedly as she confidently  walks through the crowd of cars towards the staring point.

That's when  crowds and cars start to move all following after hailee to the street.

"We best follow after" Brian's says nodding his head in the direction hailee just went in.

I hold my hand out infront of me  signifying him to lead the way which he does Stephanie , mason,cater and  I trailing after him.
________________________________

I make my way through the bustling crowd  losing the group in turn as I  attempt to get to the front.

Which I successfully do earning me a place  in the  front crowd behind the racing cars.

Hailee steps out the crowd and makes her way to her starting position in  between the front of the  cars racing.

I watch with intrest leant up against a lamppost beside me.

" I'm sure your all familiar with this street race but I'm  gonna refresh your memories anyway" hailee starts her tone serious.

"This is a no lap race just a good old fashion drag race from this line in front of me to those railway tracks  alll the way down there" she point to the blue chalk   line and railway tracks that signify the start and  end getting a rev of agreement  from the drivers in front if her.

She let's a grin come to her face before continuing her speech.

"I dont wanna see any funny business am I understood just clean speed racing that means no nitrous" she points between the 2 racers as if shes telling off 2 naughty children.

"Are you ready"  she ask the driver to her left ,her hand pointing  whilst holding a radio at  them a look of excitement on her face.

The driver flashes their lights in response.

"Are You ready" she questions the other driver.

They rev in response.

She brings up both her arms her hip cocked to the side  a look of mischief on her face.

Both drivers ready themselves for the drop of her arms.

" GO" hailee bows letting her arms  go down with her.

  2 cars shoot past her sides making her hair move in that direction.

She raised  her head her hair flipping to reveal  a huge grin  on it as she straighten herself back up.

She turns  around one  hand on her  hip as she watches the cars go down the long stretch road.

She brings the radio up to her face speaking into as the drivers get closer to the end.

She nods as she responds to the other person on the end.

She turns back towards the crowd only to detor over to me.

" you race" she questions her eyes burning with passion as she Stares right into mine.

"Meh "i reply nonchalantly  shrugging my shoulders.

She rolls her eyes at this letting out a sigh as she drags her hand through her mousey hair.

"Why what's it to you" I fire back my own question.

She looks back at me clear amusement on her face.

"Nothing just thought id ask" she hums out walking past me into the crowd.

I grab out to catch her arm.

She turns to me defence written in her body language.

"Let go of me" she growls in warning.

I immediately let go holding my hands up in surrender.

"Was only gonna ask to race but its cool" I breath out shifting my body to lean away from her.

She regards me with thoughtful eyes letting out a sigh.

"Follow me" she waves her hand to me signifying I follow.

I follow a few paces behind her.

We make our way back over to the group both Stephanie and brian are missing but mason and carter are back.

"FAYEEE" i call out as we get closer to the group.

"WHHAATT" faye replies as she walks towards me and the mystery person.

"You know you love me" I  start  puppy dog  adorned on my face as  I look at Faye who now stands infront of me.

"Do i though" faye mocks back laughing.

"I'm hurt" i laugh  back in shock my  hand on my chest.

I glance behind me to see the mystery person watching this interaction amusement written on their face.

"Anyway what do you want" faye ask me clear disinterest in her voice.

"Can I race your car" i plead my hands out in begging.

"Whyyy?" Faye questions looking quizzical  between me and the person behind me.

I turn to the mystery person  behind me and wrap my hands onto the side of  their crossed ones their face morphing from amusement to questioning in a matter of seconds.

"I'm going to race them" I shake their arm rocking them slightly  as I reply  to my freind excitedly the brown eyed person looks down on me clear bewilderment as to what I am doing to them on their face.

"Annd why do you need my car to do it" faye once again questions her  arms crossed over her chest and eyebrows knitted into confusion.

"Cus you have a muscle car and so   do they sooo it make sense and anyway you know the rules I cant race my bike unless it's against another bike" I list out arguably.

"I suppooossse but I warn you break or damage my car and you will be paying ,replacing and installing those parts are we clear" faye laughs out but I know shes serious.

"Yay your the best" I let go of the  arm I clutch onto hug my freind  stepping away from the hug to retrive the keys she dangles infront of me.

I turn back to the person and look up at their brown eyes.

"You ready to lose" I say smugly my head cocked to the side.

The person lets out a small chuckle before stepping further into the small gap between us.

" you tell yourself that amour" they  purr out  close to my ear before walking away toward their car.

"In getting my ass kicked"i conclude swallowing the last of my pride.
