Cars 2

Chapter 1

The sunset is so beautiful. Pink and Gold, Pink and Gold. Topped off with a shade of red against the blue sky. Red and blue. Like Lightning. That red paint job, so warm and comfortable, and those eyes. So clear, pure, blue. Crystal clear blue. I feel as if I'm lost at sea. How did I end up so lucky? Lightning is definitely the one. He's just so, so, so…

"Why are you staring at me like that?" Lightning McQueen asked, laughing.

"Hmmm? Oh! I was just thinking about something." Sally replied, embarrassed that he saw her staring at him.

They sat there for a while, enjoying each other's presence.

"Hey Stickers?" Sally asked after awhile.

"Yea?"

"You remember what next week is?"

He thought for a moment, then replied, "Oh yea! It's Karaoke Week, isn't it?" Lightning remembered now that next week was one of Radiator Springs most important traditional events.

"Yea, and I was planning on singing, and well, I'm a little nervous." she admitted.

"I'm sure you have nothing to worry about. You have a great voice." he told her, smiling encouragingly.

"Well, I'm still kind of nervous."

"If there's anything I can do just let me know." Lightning offered.

"Well, there is one thing."

"What?"

"Well, I was thinking that maybe you could sing one night during Karaoke Week too." she replied.

"Me? Singing? I don't know…"

"Come on, Stickers! Please? For me?" Sally pleaded.

"Well, ok, but I'm not that very good." he said, nuzzling against her affectionately.
