Into The Sun
Jesse looked around the hospital room boredly,waitin for something to do to drop in his lap.
Just as he picked up the Import Tuner magazine from the stand beside his bed, Leon and Letty walked in.
"Whats up,Dawg? How you feelin'?" Leon asked.
Jesse layed his head back and smiled.
"Like I been shot." He grinned.
"Yeah,he's okay..still crackin' jokes." Letty smiled.
"How you doin,Let? I heard you took quite a spill." Jesse asked, taking a sip of the Pepsi his nurse had generously bought him.
She shrugged and tilted her head.
"Im okay..just some bruised ribs and a few scratches. When you gettin' outta here?" She asked,trying to take the focus off of her.
"Today is his last day.." The nurse answered for Jesse as she flew in to check his IV.
"THANK GOD!" He yelled.
One hour later....
Leon tore out of the hospital parking lot in his Skyline,Jesse sitting in back,slipping his shirt on.
"So how ya feelin?" Leon asked,glancing at Jesse in his rear-view mirror.
Jesse shrugged.
"Not too bad. Nothing a Corona or two wont fix."
Leon nodded and took a corner doing 90mph.
"Le,do ya mind? I just got out of the hospital,dude." Jesse said, holding his stomach.
"Oh yeah..Sorry bro." Leon apologized.
"Jess,you think you're gonna be ready for Race Wars?" Letty asked, turning her head slightly to look at Jesse.
He shrugged and grinned.
"I'm going,whether I'm ready or not, so It's all good." He replied, taking a bite out of his Hershey bar.
The rest of the drive home passed uneventfully,Jesse occasionally cracking a joke.
Twiggy Vasquez was sitting on the porch of his new home, when the yellow Skyline roared into the driveway of the house across the street.
He had noticed quite a few decent street cars were parked over there quite often, and had no doubt that the people were racers. But he'd never really bothered to get to know them.
The Latin woman stepped out of the passenger side and stretched,then turned toward Twiggy's house and saw him sitting on the porch.
She waved and gave a friendly smile after noticing him looking. He smiled and waved back. She was cute---at least from where he was sitting.
Getting caught up in his thoughts, he looked up to spot the woman crossing over his lawn to step up onto his porch.
He smiled and stood up, setting his laptop aside and holding out a hand.
"Hi,"He smiled. "My name's Twiggy. Twiggy Vasquez." He introduced himself.
"So you can speak?" Letty asked, laughing at his look of awe.
"Hey," she said, shaking his hand. "Im Letty. Letty Rodriguez.
"Yeah...sorry, I guess I'm just not very social when it comes to meeting new people...So what can I do ya for?" He asked,standing up straighter.
He noticed as he did so, Letty took notice of his muscular 6'3" frame He smiled slightly.
"Umm..I just wanted to introduce myself,and say that my team and I are having a party later tonight. So if you wanna come, you're invited." She asked, looking back towards the house.
Twiggy nodded and considered her offer.
"Sounds great. I'll definately try to come." He said. "Oh,and 'team'?" he asked curiously.
Letty laughed.
"Oh yeah...Racing team. We own a garage not too far from here..." She explained.
"DT's,right?" Twiggy asked, sticking his hands into the pockets of his black cargo pants.
"Yeah..how'd you know?"
"That big guy...Has the DT logo on his car,i noticed. I put two and two together."
Letty grinned and nodded.
"Yeah, thats Dominic--He owns the place."
Twiggy nodded.
"I figured you guys were all racers over there--I've seen a Skyline, Maxima and a Silvia. You guys must love Nissan, to have only one RX-7." He smiled.
"You noticed that,huh? Yeah, the Silvia's mine. S14 240SX." She threw the name at him, just to see if he had any idea of what she was talking about.
"Nice. Ever thought about upgrading to an S15?" He asked.
Letty snickered.
"Our lead mechanic Jesse asked me the same thing,not too long ago. Nah, i'm happy with the way she's performing now." She said, looking toward her car. "Do you race?" She asked.
"To be honest, I would if I still had my car," He answered looking at the ground.
"What kind of car was it?" Letty asked, leaning against the side of his house.
"Nineteen sixty-seven Shelby Mustang GT 500. My black beauty.." He smiled slightly.
Letty whistled.
"Niiiiiice...what happened to it, if you dont mind me asking.." She asked carefully.
"It's cool. I hit another car doing one-fifty-five about 2 years ago." He answered. "Been holding on to the junker ever since. Keep it in the garage." He explained, pointing towards the back of the house.
Letty just shook her head.
"That must have really sucked. You ever think about fixing her up?"
"Yeah...I'd love to see her run again.." He trailed off.
Letty thought for a moment.
"I think it's time to introduce you to Dom." She said as she grabbed his arm and drug him across the street.
"You two look alot alike--both big guys,bald,pretty eyes.." Letty stopped there.
Twiggy smiled and calmly went along with Letty.
"DOM! DOM ARE YOU HOME?!" Letty yelled, walking into the house with Twiggy.
Leon and Jesse were parked on the couch,Jesse playing Hitman 2 and Leon just watching.
Both looked up when Letty came in, towing an extra man behind her.
She stopped in the doorway and Leon and Jesse looked at the Dom-Look-alike-contest-winner.
"Oh, guys, this is Twiggy Vasquez, from across the street. Twiggy, this is Leon and Jesse." She said, making introductions.
Twiggy nodded and smiled slightly.
"How's it goin, dawg?" Leon asked. Jesse simply waved.
"Hey." Twiggy managed to squeeze out.
"Le, you seen Dom?" Letty re-entered the living room.
"Yeah, I thought Twiggy was Dom when he walked in," he laughed.
"Too many big bald men around here," Jesse joined in.
"Oh,but no, Dom had to run down to Harry's, he should be back within an hour."
Letty sighed.
"Shit...Twiggy, In that case, sit down and join the boys in their gameplay. You want a Corona or something?" Letty asked as she was almost outta the room.
"Yeah, thanks." He replied, sitting down on the black leather couch next to Jesse.
"Hey man, you ever played Hitman?" Jess asked, handing him the controller.
Twiggy took the controller and began playing the level that Jesse had just failed to beat.
"Yeah, I've played a little bit." He said, knowing very well that he had beat the game countless times.
15 minutes later, Twiggy had beaten the level and was already starting on another one as Jesse was telling his hospital story.
"You should have seen the nurse I had the first few days...She looked like a genital wart with legs." He laughed.
Twiggy and Leon busted up laughing at that one.
"Yeah Jess,you would know what a genital wart looks like,wouldnt you?" Leon asked.
Jesse playfully slapped him and soon they were wrestling on the cough, Twiggy looking on with a smile.
"What have I told you guys about horseplay?" A deep voice asked from the doorway.
