Here is a third chapter. Great to see so many readers!
Now the story will take off for real, hope you all will like it.
The dinner had been great, the occasionally grouchiness Kelly had noticed between Jill and Kris lately were gone. The Munroe sisters were at their best, Jill flirting with the bartender and Kris making fun of her for it. Kelly was really enjoying herself, having her three best friends nearby so they could do these kinds of things often. She felt so warmly for all three of them and she didn´t know what she would do or who she would be without them. Kelly looked over at Bri who had a warm silly smile on her face and a dreamy look in her eyes. Kelly giggled a little to herself thinking that Bri´s thoughts right now probably were similar to what she was thinking and that her own face probably looked very similar to Bri´s current expression.
- Sorry Ladies! We are closing up for tonight, one of the waiters told the girls.
- Okey, okey we are leaving now, Jill said.
- Hey Kelly, do you want to split a cab? Bri asked.
- No, no, no. We are driving both of you home. Kris said while picking up the key to her Cobra from her purse.
- I will do the driving! Jill shouted and grabbed the key from Kris.
- Guess it is settled then, Kelly said with a smile and she, Bri and Kris hurried after Jill who had taken a run towards the car.
Bri, Kelly and Kris had gotten to the restaurant together in Kris´s Cobra directly from the office. Jill had taken a cab there by her own. Kris wanted to give Kelly and Bri a lift home to make sure they got home safely and she didn´t really want this night to end right now when they were having such a good time. Kris smiled to herself when she saw her enthusiastic sister jump in to the car.
Jill loved driving, and the Cobra followed her every move. She loved to feel the leather from the steering wheel against her fingers and the light vibration from the gas pedal under her foot. Not to speak of the sound from the engine, Jill thought. She pushed the gas pedal harder and felt the force push her slightly back against the seat as the car accelerated on the highway.
- Uh, Jill, you missed the turn off. Bri said from the backseat.
- Kris, tell me why I ever gave you this car? Jill screamed out, her eyes sparkling.
- I think you thought it wasn't fast enough. Kelly said with a smile.
Jill looked back at Bri and Kelly in the rearview mirror and said;
- I will prove myself wrong then!
Jill pushed the gas pedal again and the car accelerated even more.
- I will take you home, we are just taking a little ride first. Jill said enthusiastically.
Kris smiled at her sister, she knew how much Jill loved driving and how good she was at it too. Kris leaned back towards Bri and Kelly to join in on their chit chat.
Jill felt the adrenalin starting to pump in her body, she had missed this. Her concentration set fully on the car and the road ahead. She passed two cars in high speed and then took a left curve. The road turned left again and then hard to the right. Jill felt the wheels in the back losing their grip and slipped over in to the meeting lane. She let the whole car skid along throughout the whole curve and straightened it out and accelerated again on the straight after the curve. Jill felt as if the adrenalin belonged in her body.
- Jill! What the hell are you doing! Kris shouted.
- Ah, common, I did these kind of turns all the time while racing. Jill answered.
- But this isn't a racetrack, this is a road with oncoming traffic, and this is not a racecar! Kris said and eyed her sister carefully.
- Hey, I´m just trying to have some fun here. Jill said once again passing two cars at high speed.
Kris was overreacting Jill thought. She couldn't stop now, this was way to much fun, and she had really missed out on these adrenaline rushes. The road, the car, the sound, the speed, it was paralyzing to Jill.
- Hey! I´m talking to you. Kris shouted trying to get in contact with her big sister again.
Kris didn't like the look in Jill´s eyes, it was wild, feverish and paralyzing. Jill usually drove faster and more aggressive then Kris but not like this when she had passengers. In her mind she is racing again, Kris thought. Kris always felt safe when riding in a car with Jill, but she didn't feel that way now, she was scared. It was to dark outside, it had been raining earlier so the road could be slippery, not to mention the oncoming traffics and crossroads. She had to make Jill understand that driving like this now wasn't safe. Kris looked back at Kelly for help. Kelly saw that Kris looked scared, and she knew that it took a lot to put her young friend out of balance.
- Jill, maybe you should slow it down a bit? Kelly had leaned forward from the backseat to make contact with Jill.
Jill had just passed a big truck and taken two tight curves when Kelly put a hand on Jill's shoulder and once again asked her to slow down. For a split second Jill looked up in the rear mirror and met Kelly's eyes, they looked almost a bit scared Jill thought.
- Watch out! Kris screamed from the front seat.
An oncoming truck had just made a turn to the left, crossing over their lane. It was some way to go to the truck but at this speed, Jill knew she wouldn't be able to stop the car in time. Jill hit the brakes hard and sounded the horn to make the truck driver speed up so the truck would get out of their way. It won't work, we are going to fast Jill thought, she felt the fear spread through her body. She could hear her terrified friends and sisters screaming beside her in the car. Jill didn't want to drive the car off the road, it was trees every ware. Jill steered the car to the left in to the oncoming lane to avoid colliding with the truck.
- Shit. Jill pressed out between her pressed together teeth.
The sound of the horn from an oncoming car was heard. The car hadn´t been visible due to the truck. Jill turned to the right back in to the right lane. Whit only inches as margin she managed to avoid colliding with the oncoming car. The Cobra jerked although as the back of the Cobra hit the back of the big truck. The hit made the Cobra spin around and they started sliding sideways of the road with the passenger side at first. Jill fought hard trying to gain control but the wet grass and mud were to slippery. We are going to crash in to a tree, Jill thought, she felt empty inside.
The sound of metal bending and glass breaking were ear-splitting, then everything went quiet, to quiet…
