Hi dear reader! Before you read this story I want to say thank you for checking it out, but I also want to inform you that English isn't my first language. So sorry for any errors but please correct me! And this story will have explicit language and content with a possible lemon further ahead. Wanted to give you a warning first, but this is rated M for a reason.
Thank you!
I drove along the empty road with the window down. My hair swayed in the wind and I had an arm leaned against the door. Even if I bought this car yesterday, I felt home in it. Sure, the car wasn't in its best condition. But hey, it drives! I still can't get the image of the salesman out of my mind. The shock on his face when every single window on all his cars just exploded, expect this car. First he tried to sell it for five thousand but after that he gave it to us for four thousand. You can't imagine how glad I felt when I got it. My dad made me the happiest girl on earth! This car is awesome! It runs so smooth, but I gotta putty it up. The yellow color is peeling off, as well as the black strips along the car.
Suddenly I saw a figure emerging on the road. When I could see bare legs I knew it was a girl. And as I got closer I recognized the girl. It was Mikaela Banes, more known as Tents' girlfriend. They've had a on-off relationship for years now. I say be done with it! Why does the stay with that jerk anyway? I've seen how he looks at me, it's almost like he is undressing me with his eyes. That guy gives me the creeps.
Why is she even out here? And why the hell is she walking home? It's several miles to her house, and it's going to take hours for her to walk that way. I knew she could hear my car, but she didn't want to lift. I saw no thumb. Mikaela is practically a stranger to me. When we were younger we used to hang out, but God that was years ago! She's changed, I guess I have as well.
I almost deicide to drive past her and let her walk home. But as she got closer I felt a bit of guilt. I guess I can drive her home. I'm heading that way anyways. I sighed and shook my head, I'll drive her home. Us girls gotta stick together after all! I honked at her, she flinched and turned around. I stopped my car next to her. Instead of rolling down the window on the opposite side of the car, I sat on the window frame on my side. Mikaela was beyond surprised when she saw me.
"Hey, I saw you walking all alone. Want a ride home?" I asked in a soft tone. She was surely surprised when I asked. I don't blame her, we aren't really friends after all. First it looked like she was going to say no. But I guess the thought of the long way home changed her mind. Mikaela gave me a warm and thankful smile.
"Yeah thanks" she said. I nodded and sat down in my seat. She opened the door and made herself home in the seat next to me. As I started to the car she plugged her seatbelt in. Well at least she all in for safety! My car started smoothly and I continued to drive along the road.
It was silent between us the first couple of minutes. The air was not relaxed, more like tense. So I decided so break it.
"So, no Trent?" I asked. Wait, maybe that's not my place to ask. Shit, I shouldn't have said that! It sounds like I'm judging her! I wanted to apologies, but I was very surprised when I heard a chuckle from Mikaela. If I didn't drive I would have looked at her.
"No Trent. That jerk can go and hang over another girl. I'm done, for good this time" she sighed. I was actually very relieved to hear that. I don't know why, but I liked it. Maybe I feel for her, Trent is a big fucking jerk. A playboy. I bet he's cheated on her several times.
Mikaela didn't seem to mind my question, another relief. It even sounded like she was opening up to me.
"You got that right! What did he do this time?" I asked with a smirk. My comment would have been offensive to most people. But not Mikaela, 'cause she knows the truth. Trent has done a lot of things, cheating is just one of them.
"He didn't let me drive his car. Said it was not suitable for a women to drive" she scoffed. Wait, he did not?! Wow, what a big idiot. That's sexist and stupid. To deny a women to drive a car... I would have been pissed! I can understand why she's done with him! Since I love cars I can understand her feelings.
"Gosh, I understand why you left that pig. I mean, who reject his girlfriends like that?" I said. She chuckled again, and I gave her a quick glance. She looked relaxed and a smile played on her plump lips. I gotta so, she's attractive! Everyone knows that.
"Glad you understand. Not many would" she sighed, relieved.
"Well I'm into cars. I liked to putty them up and just tinker with them" I said. Wow, I already opened up to her. During the last years I took her as a bitch. But she isn't that bad, she's actually very kind.
"Same here, that's why you bought this car? No offense!" Mikaela added quickly. That made me chuckle. I don't mind her saying that. This car isn't glorious, but it can be with some work. Dad got a free spot in his garage, just for me. There my car will stand and I will be able to use dads workshop. When he was young he used to tinker with cars. I guess I got that from him.
"No worries. But yes that's one of the reason I bought the car. I don't know how, but it just feels right to drive this beauty. It feels like we belong together, you catch my meaning?" I said with a smile. Hopefully she does. It sounds very stupid to say it out loud. But what can I say? I'm really into cars!
"I catch it. I feel the same with my bike" she said. Oh now I remember! She has a bike (a motorcycle). Well that explains a lot of things. I'm not really a bike person, but I wouldn't mind a bike of my own. It's easy to drive and very sneaky in traffic.
"Glad to now I'm not the only one" I said with a smirk. She laughed.
We kept speaking during the ride. We didn't stay on a specific topic, we just talked. I saw how she relaxed to just talk. Even though Trent was a jerk, it gotta hurt to let him go. Sometimes I saw a passion between then. It was brief and very rare, but it was there. Me and Mikaela became fast friends and I started to like her. Perhaps I can do more then drive just her home.
When we arrived at her house it was dark outside. I stopped the car and looked over at her. Now I got a better look at her. She's indeed very beautiful, with long black hair and tanned skin. A lot of guys droll over her, and I can understand why. With a sigh she opened the door and was about to step out, when she suddenly stopped and turned to me.
"Eve, thanks for the ride and the talk. I needed that" she said with a smile. I answered her with a nod and a big smile. She exited the cars and shut the door. I was about to start the car when a thought suddenly popped into my head. I threw myself over to the other side, the seatbelt cutting into my flesh. I rolled down the window and called for her. With a surprised look she turned around and held in a laugh when she saw my uncomfortable position.
"You know a lot of stuff about cars am I right? What you say about helping me with putty up this beauty? You know, like a girl-moment!" I said. Girl-moment? That sounded better in my head. Mikaela was surprised, but she gave me a big smirk.
"I would love to! Meet you after school and I'll see what I can do" she said. My heart fluttered of happiness. That went better then expected! Now fixing this car will be a lot more fun!
"Great, see you tomorrow! Goodnight!" I said.
"Night Eve" she said and walked to her house. I rolled up the window and sat down in my seat. What a great ending to this day! I found a new friend! As I drove home I had a big smirk on my lips.
