Life In the Fast Lane

[Dark_Psycho]

Street racing life was not just something to do. It was a life style and it started young. At 18 a girl who came from a rich family had asked for a fast car and decided to take it for a spin at street Racing.


The first time she did it. She was okay but got better with each run. She had now become the best of the best. She stood at the hood of her car that was open as people past. She smiled and flipped her long black hair. She was waiting on some new person to show up and ask where to park. Yeah she was only 18, but over the past few months she had become amazing at what she did. Her blue green eye's watched a few of the other driver's she shook her head and turned around looking at her engine to make sure it was in top shape."good luck tonight Panther" many said to her. She laughed and nods to them. She sighed and continued looking at her car.

There's a thrill to racing that Phoenix can't explain. Maybe it's the adrenaline when he's near the finish line, or the wave of success when he's won, or the way the wheel is perfect for his palms. Whatever it is, he can't just let it go. He knows his parents aren't big supporters of the ordeal, so he tries to keep his hobby hidden. Only that doesn't take a lot of effort, considering his parents are almost never home.


Really, the only person who knows is Panther - his best friend. The girl is as crazy as he is. With her wild skills and ridiculous risk taking, they match up to each other in terms of levels. Well, it's nothing short of his expectations. Panther has always been a natural. Not that he'll ever say that to her face.


He drives toward the planned area and spots Panther near her car. "Dude, you ready?"

 

[Dark_Psycho]

She looked up as Phoenix drove up she wiped her hands on her rag. He called her by her driving name Panther only her parents and people who didn't know what she did called her Octavia. She smiled and closed her hood."you know I am ready. racing tonight? cause you better get your name in for the bets. They are already going around collecting bets."She said. She sat on her hood and smiled the race was about to start.


Oil was in her blood she was ment to race. Her family hated it, so she had to hide it from them other wise she loved the race. The adrenaline made her feel alive and well.

"Of course I am!" Phoenix laughs. "I'm going to text Danny for that." Danny is the organiser of most of the races in these parts, and he's also handling the bets. He sends Danny a text, indicating that he's joining. He receives a text a few seconds later, saying that the race will start after Panther's. He looks at Octavia with a small smile. "Good luck. You better win this one."

( sorry phone died )


Octavia smiles and shakes her head."trust me I will." She hugged him."see you later."She said. She got in her car and started it. The engine purred nicely. Octavia drove to the start line her hand on her stick shift. She watched as the green flag was waved signaling them to go she. Started off slow then shot off like a rocket. Octavia was quick and smart she always wwnt to the inside and pushed her opponents out as she drove. Octavia sped a long the as she raced she had passed all of the cars by the time the Finish line came into view. Octavia crossed it adhere back and slid nicely. She turned off her car and got out smiling. Octavia smiles. She had won the race people came up to hug her. She looked for Phoenix in the crowd. She laughed and nods as they pat her on the back yelling Panther.

Phoenix watches the race closely, knowing that Octavia would be looking for him in the crowd. He notices the gentle skid of her tires on the road. It's amazing how Octavia has improved so much in a short amount of time. Well, considering that he's been teaching her, that's not much of a surprise. When the race is finished, he pushes past the crowd and finds Octavia standing in the middle. He pulls her in for a hug, inhaling her scent. "You did good," he says, grinning madly. "Should I give you a kiss as a reward?" He's kidding, but he's also not.

 

[Dark_Psycho]

Octavia hugged him. "Oh my god I did it. Did you see that."She said. She smiled and looked at him." Thank you omg thank you. "She said and with out warning even though he asked. She kissed him on the lips. He had been teaching her, but she was almost getting better then him. Octavia pulled away after the crowd cheered. "So your race is in a bit come on let's get your car ready."She was better at making sure the car was ready. They traded services she did his mechanics he taught her to drive.

His eyes nearly bulge out of its sockets when Octavia closes the gap between them. The kiss is brief, but it's enough to get his heart racing, which is kind of ironic, actually. He nods in agreement, slinging his arm around her shoulders. He steers her away from the crowd, smirking when the other guys are gawking at their little lip lock. Honestly, he doesn't know whether they're together or not. Maybe a casual relationship is what they're having.

 

[Dark_Psycho]

She smiled and leaned into him. Her heart was pounding. She wasn't sure what that was, but kissing him felt right. She looked at his engine and fixed a few things. She winked at him and closed his hood."looks good, your good yo go for your race. Oh wait before you go I have something for you."She wrapped her arms around his neck and really kissed him this time. She pulled away when the announced it was time to line up."That was for good luck win that race and I will meet you back here."She says.

[hisokun]

He staggers to his feet, a ridiculous expression on his face. "Yeah," he says softly, still in trance. "I'll definitely win tonight." Her lips are distracting, and he can still feel his own mouth heating up. He enters into his car, winking at Octavia in return. Then, he parks the car at the starting point, his opponents beside him. He revs his engine, ready to take action. When a gun shot is heard, Phoenix immediately presses on the pedal. He gets a head start, the other cars struggling to catch up to him. He veers to the left, and the crowd cheers. He presses the N2O button, and the car speeds up. He rushes to the finish line.


Another gun shot is heard when he reaches the destination. "Yes!" He exclaims, exiting his car.

 

[Dark_Psycho]

Octavia watched the race from where she was. She smiled as she watched him.She let out a whistle as he made it first. She pushed her way through the crowd."Move guys." She said. When she spotted him Octavia ran to him and hugged him."we did it your an amazing teacher. "She said. She smiled and laughed as they were lead to a platform.


"Alright guys settle down, we have two champs in tonight's races. Octavia the Panther and Phoenix. Octavia has been with us only a few months, but she has done amazing and has been winning. Here is her earnings for tonight as well as extra and Phoenix has his earnings. Maybe going down to this little hot shot." The man on the stage said. "Congratulations you two go on and celebrate. "He says

When that is over, Phoenix inserts the wad of cash in his pocket. He turns to Octavia with a small smile. The crowd has already dispersed, and the street is empty. "So," he says, "do I get my reward kiss, too, or what?"


Both of them have a good reputation in these parts. They keep on winning, and they keep on getting money. Phoenix uses that for gas, for buying a new guitar. He doesn't know what Octavia does with it, though. But he knows that they're sharing the same secret. He doubts his parents even know her.

 

[Dark_Psycho]

Octavia took the cash and put in her pocket. She laughed and smiled. She had won the race. Octavia was so happy, she looked at Phoenix. "So?' She asked and smiles.She smirked as he asked about another kiss. They started walking to there cars.She stopped at her car. Octavia wrapped around gim and kissed him. This time she didn't have to pull away. Octavia didn't want to pull away from him. He understood her and all of what was going on here.

[hisokun]

His hands fold against her back, pulling her closer. Octavia is his best friend, but they've been kissing so casually for a while now that he has no idea what they really are. He pulls away, breathless. Their mouths are urging each other on. "What are we, exactly?" He asks, his fingers curling around her shirt. He laughs when he spots oil sticking to her clothes and skin. "You're covered in grease."

 

[Dark_Psycho]

Octavia wrapped around him and kissed him gently. Yeah they been friends and kiss casually. She looked at him as he asked her what they were."oh um I'm not sure did you want to put this as a bf and gf thing or?"She trailed off as he talked about her grease. "Well yeah if I don't go home with grease on me then I am not doing my job. "She wiped some on his nose gently laughing.


Death to all betrayers

 

[hisokun]

"That's what I'm asking you." He wrinkles his nose when she dabs the grease on his skin. Here's the thing: they've been best friends for nearly a year, but Phoenix is already attached to her. If something in the relationship goes wrong, their friendship is broken. So is the race. Will he really risk that? But at the same time, he likes Octavia too much to let the opportunity slip.

 

[Dark_Psycho]

Octavia nods she smiles at his obvious disgust."yes I would like us to be official. "She said and smiled at him. She watched him would he agree. She wonder, they had been friends for a year and had gotten close. The time they spend together doing all the work with the cars. Want to come over tomorrow and we can go do something if you want."She said and smiled kissing his cheek.


Death to all betrayers

 

[hisokun]

"Yeah." Whatever Octavia wants to do, Phoenix will most likely follow. She's brought a certain excitement to his life that he just can't ignore. He refuses to let that slip away. "Let's go on a trip."

 

[Dark_Psycho]

"A trip where to?" She asked. Octavia watched him, she put her hair behind her ear and sat in her car.She was suprised ge said a trip not that her family care if she left or not. She could have him over all night and come to the table undressed and say she had sex. They wouldn't care.

[hisokun]

"It doesn't matter. To the mountain side. Near the cliff. The beach. I don't really care." Because his parents had pampered him, he's had to resist the temptation to lock himself out of the world. Octavia helps with that. "Let's go have fun."

 

[Dark_Psycho]

Octavia smiles and bit her lip." Yes let's go to the beach that sounds nice pick me up later tonight I have to go pack. She said and wrapped around his neck.She loved being with Phoenix. Octavia sighed and grabbed her keys winking at him." See you soon."She said

Later that night, Phoenix picks Octavia up at her house, his own duffel bag at the backseat. He also has a blanket for them to lie on, and a few snacks. He sends her a message to say that he's already outside.

 

[Dark_Psycho]

Octavia replied 've down in a minute. She had already been ready and waiting. She decided to freak him out when he pulled up. She hid on the other side and walked up to the driver's side door. She jumped up grabbing the window sill."Boo." She said grabbing his arm."She smiles when he jumped.


Death to all betrayers

 

[hisokun]

"You shouldn't have done that," Phoenix grumbles, trying to relax. "Seriously. I could've gotten a heart attack, and it would be your fault." When she gets inside the car, he drives down the road.

 

[Dark_Psycho]

Octavia put her bag in the back and smiled. " oh come on doll it was a joke. Your okay I am not going to kill you." She kissed his cheek."sorry love I didn't mean to scare you almost to death. She said as she leaned back in her seat and sighed.
