Lightning sipped his hot morning coffee. He hadn't even put a shirt on yet or began getting ready for work when the door bell rang. And he really wasn't expecting anyone. So when he opened the door to Cruz he was a little shocked. "Hey.. I.. I wanted to apologize for leaving like a did." she said softly. Lightning sighed and asked "You wanna come in?" Cruz glanced up at his face and saw he was wearing the old man glasses. He was actually kind of cute with Glasses. She nodded though.
"So your trip.. I couldn't go even if I wanted to. Cal has me on a tight schedule training Storm. Plus I doubt you want me going after how I acted at dinner." She admitted. Actually he didn't want her going now because he invited Sally and the kids. Oh the idea if that! Sally, the kids, and Cruz all together!? That would most definitely be a disaster. "I just don't want you leaving on bad terms though. So.. Whatever I need to do to make up for it.." She smiled. Lightning shook his head and assured "We're fine. No need to worry. I upset you and didn't really mean to." Cruz was glad that he didn't really seem mad at her, thankfully.
"Maybe.. We?.. Try and make up for how we both have acted lately? Hmm?" Cruz suggested as her hand traveled from his side to his hip then crotch. Lightning was tempted but shut it down in the worst way possible. "I'm taking Sally." Cruz's expression changed. She stepped back and just snapped "Wait so?.. You're taking Sally!? We have a fight and you run back to her!?" "It's not like that." he tried explaining. "Oh really!? How is it than!?" she yelled. Lightning shook his head answering "I'm taking the kids to... And my mom! Not just Sally."
Cruz stared and felt rather stupid. "Oh... So.. Like a family thing?.." She asked. Lightning shrugged but nodded. Sure, why not.. If it kept him from getting screamed at. Cruz thought a moment and had to ask "So Celia?.. Is going to help with the work part?" Lightning nodded. That part was definitely true. "Oh... So.. Well.. I'm sorry.. Guess I.. Should have listened.. But.. Who did you sleep with and?.. Why can't you with me?" She asked in this sad little whimper of a tone. Lightning sighed and set down his coffee on the nearest surface. And with a deep breath "I slept with Sally.." He admitted. Cruz's eyes widened.
"It wasn't planned.. I'm.. I'm not particularly proud of what I did.." Lie. "But..I shouldn't have started us off with betrayal and for that I'm sorry.." Cruz was hurt. Because being Sally, it meant something. Surprisingly Cruz didn't yell, didn't scold, didn't fight. She just swallowed loudly and nodded with "Okay.. Okay. Maybe we're just.. Better off as friends.. I mean we had a connection but.. It's obviously not what you two have... I can't.. Give you the years she has.." Lightning was surprised by her words but Cruz was right.
"Look um.. You go do you..And.. And we can talk more after your trip.. Maybe.." she added. Lightning did feel a little bad. He was horrible to Cruz. They barely even dated and he was horrible. "I'm sorry.. For everything." Cruz mumbled then just left. She wanted to wrap her arms around him but just couldn't. She knew she'd break into tears if she did. It was better to just go. "Have a safe trip Lightning." she waved then got into her car and left. Cruz, for thw first time.. She seriously felt bad for what she started with Lightning. She put Sally through a lot and all because she wanted someone who was taken, married.. Lightning was in a weak place and she took advantage of that at the time. Or so she felt that way right now...
Megan just walked into the house after enjoying a short jog through town. She sighed with a smile admitting "That felt good. Glad I decided to do that." She walked into the living room after hanging up her jacket to Cal sitting on the couch with this cold glare. She immediately became concerned and asked "What's wrong?.. What happened?" Cal cocked his head a little and replied "I'm gonna ask this one last time.. Did you sleep with Lightnin?" he asked. Megan's shook her head and sighed "Cal... We've been over this.. I never slept with him."
"You got a package." He pointed out and to the opened box on the table. Megan raised a brow "Okay?" Cal was acting strange. "From Lightnin." he added. Megan glanced at the brown box. She slowly walked over and peeked inside. Whatever the contents were covered by a letter. Short and simple, it read
Thought we could use these the next time we meet up
-Lightning
Megan glanced at Cal. Still confused. Then placed the paper foen and opened up the bix and she gasped! A dildo and hand cuffs. "Cal.. I?.." She muttered and was literally speachless! Why would Lightning do this!? Cal stood up snarling at his wife "I'm gonna kill him. Weather the two of you did or not!? I hate him and I'm gonna give him a peice of my mind!" He yelled and headed to the door
Cal was so furious with Lightning! Megan tried stopping him "Cal wait! You know Lightning would never do this! Besides! I never slept with him!" Cal pushed his wife away and grabbed the package and note. "I don't give a fuck what you did! Lightnin has to be put in his place! He has always thought he's better than everyone! Time he learned a lesson! What's mine is mine! And YOU ARE MINE!" "Cal wait!" Cal left, slamming the door behind him and leaving Megan scared, worried and in tears!...
Cruz came around the corner fast! She was a very talented driver! A good racer! Storm and a few other students, watched her and another student race each other on the simulator. She turned sharp leavin the student in the dust! Then the other racer suddenly slowed to a stop!.The on lookers gasped a little and when Cruz saw her competitor was fading she slowed down and stopped. She got out her car and walked over to make sure he was okay. Storm was so confused and watched for a moment.
The student had to quit the race. Storm watched him and the other students leave then approached Cruz and asked "Why did you do that? You had that race in the bag." Cruz snickered, almost giggled answering "Because. I wanted to make sure he was alright.". "You forfeit a race?.. To check up on your opponent?" he was just baffled. Cruz nodded and asked "Well yeah. Wouldn't you?" "Uh?.. No." he answered firmly. Cruz stared a moment. This was her partner.
Cruz sighed and asked "If I was in a race, with you, you mean if I had an accident? You wouldn't even care?" Jackson shookhis head. "Oh I'd care. I'd care enough that I continue the race and win for the team." Ceuz glared and snapped "You are unbelievable!" Jackson only shrugged. But it was odd. Seeing Cruz care about another racer like that. "You are a dirty racer Storm." She growled. Jackson glared and corrected "No I'm not. I am a great racer. I just don't show the same kind of sportsmanship you and people like McQueen do. It's called winning." "It's called taking advantage.".she corrected. Jacksom rolled his eyes. Cruz was annoying...
Heather was the front desk assistant of the academy. So when Cal came in carrying the box of goods. Heather smiled and greeted "Oh, hey Mr Weathers." But Cal didn't say a word. He did shoot her a mean glare but immediately pressed the button to the elevator. Heather was so lost and asked "Can I help you?.." Cal didn't answer but entered the elevator and pressed the level and the doors shut.
Heather thought that was odd. "Okay?.." she muttered aloud to herself. Then she grabbed the phone and called Lightning real quick. He was actually at his desk trying to think of an actual reply to Sally's email. "Yes?" he answered.
Cal is up on his way to your office.
"Why?"
He didn't say.. But had a package with him.
Lightning sighed. He had no clue why Cal would be here. "Alright. Thanks." he hung up and clicked off the email and leaned back in his chair waiting for Cal to appear. Oh and he did. Cal walked in and Lightning greeted asking "Hey. What do.. You?.." he slowed. The way Cal even approached him was hostile. Cal set the box on the corner of the desk then immediately grabbed the back of Lightning's golden locks and slammed his face into his own keyboard with a THUD!
"THAT'S FOR FUCKING AROUND WITH MY WIFE!" Lightning slowly pulled his head up. Oh he was gonna feel this for the next couple days. Actually he was a little dazed. Cal was going on and on and yelling things at him. But Cal smashed his face and head hard onto the surface. His nose was bleeding as he stared down at the keyboard. Blood dripped onto the little letters and Lightning could hear a ringing and vaguely hear Cal shouting angrily.
But Lightning had enough! His fist closed up. He tried to hold it together but Cal just wouldn't SHUT UP! In one quick motion, Lightning stood up and grabbed the keyboard and SLAP Cal right across the face with it! Cal fell to the floor but was fine. Not another word was said between them. Cal got up with an angry growl and ran toward Lightning, grabbing him and smashing them both into the wall behind them! Lightning punched Cal in the lower back, knocking Cal to his knees! Then kneed him in the face!
Cal almost didn't get up.. He wobbled a bit but stood a few feet from Lightning. Both ridiculous. Heather heard another loud thump from above her and was clueless. Now, Lightning had more cameras installed after the break in and the paint thing on the door. So, Heather turned on the live feed and gasped as she saw Lightning and Cal just going at it and hitting each other and just destroying the office! She quickly grabbed the phone and called the one person she trusted to handle these two!
Cal shoved Lightning back and Lightning hit and fell over the hood of the bolt. Cal grabbed the computer monitor and came at Lightning with it, but Lightning was fast enough he moved and fell to the floor. Cal hit the hood with the screen and Lightning kicked Cal's ankles, knocking Cal to the ground then got on top of him and began throwing hard punches to Cal's face. Over and over and over!
Bobby walked in and his eyes widened as he yelled at Lightning "Hey! HEY! Get off him McQueen! Let him go!" he yelled and grabbed Lightning up and pulled him back. Cal rolled over and got up but wasn't finished. As Bobby stepped between them Cal shoved him out of the way and shoved Lightning in the chest, pushing him back a few steps! Bobby yelled "What is all this about!?" But no one answered! Cal and Lightning were on each other like pits in a fighting ring! Cal threw a punch but missed. Lightning grabbed Cal by his shirt and slung him across the room and into a wall! "Stop!" Bobby shouted! Lightning breathed heavily as he was getting worn down from this. Bobby grabbed Lightning's arm and yelled "Stop it!" Lightning stared at Bobby a second while Cal got up, fell, and got upright again.
Bobby put himself between the two and yelled "What is going on!" "That!" Cal yelled pointing to the box. "Lightnin wants to fuck my wife again!" Bobby and Lightning were both confused. Lightning shouted "I NEVER FUCKED YOUR WIFE!" "LIAR!" Cal snapped! Bobby was the only thing between these two at the moment and held out his hands, trying to keep them even further apart. "You sent her a stupid box and letter saying you wanna do it again basically to my face!" Cal shouted! Bobby glared at Cal like he was about to scold him but then Lightning snarled "You know! Now I wish I did fuck your wife! That way I could RUB IT IN YOUR FACE RIGHT NOW!" Oh Cal was furious!
Cal punched Bobby right in the nose making him trip back! Bobby rubbed his face, his nose and jaw and watched as Lightning and Cal were right back to it! He watched for a moment as he tried to think of how to stop this ridiculous fight. He made his choice based on the fact he was pretty sure Cal would back down easiest. Bobby suddenly stepped in and grabbed Cal by the collar and threatened "Leave! Or it's gonna be two agaisnt one!" Cal did stop and he and Bobby stared into each other's eyes. Cal didn't stand a chance against Bobby and Lightning. So he stared at Lightning a moment then pushed Bobby off him and snarled "This ain't over McQueen." He straighted his shirt and began to leave.
"Don't let the door hit you!" Shouted Bobby then he slammed the door behind Cal and let out a deep breath. He looked to Lightning who was just realizing how badly he and Cal destroyed his office. Bobby glared and asked kind of rudely "What was this all about?!" Lightning wasn't even sure. Bobby and Lightning glanced at the box Cal left. Bobby walked over, opened it, first seeing the short letter or note, then pulled out the dildo and raised a brow asking hoa friend "You sent this to Megan?" Lightning wiped his face and shook his head "No. I never even talked to her." Bobby glanced at the address. "It's your address.." He pointed out.
"I did not send anything to her!" Lightning defended. Bobby sighed and stared at the contents explaining "Than someone wanted this. Someone is settin you up.."...
Once cleaned up, calmed down and bandaged up. Lightning, Bobby, Heather and Celia sat in a break room down stairs. Discussing who they think might have wanted something like this to happen. Lightning frowned and admitted "Could be Cruz.." Bobby raised a brow asking "Cruz? Why would she want you to get the shit beat outa you?" Lightning sighed admitting "I slept with someone else.." They gasped! Lightning glared and snarled "Ooh yeah, so surprising! Lightning cheated on someone." he rolled his eyes. "Not to be nosy but.. Why? Bobby asked.
Lightning shrugged. He didn't know what to say. "I don't think Cruz would involve Cal like that though..." Celia admitted. Lightning nodded and agreed. "What about Cleo?" Bobby asked. Heather added in saying "Yeah. You said she might of had something to do with the door? Would she?" Lightning thought a moment before answering "Coem to think of it.. Cleo did say something to Sally about me having trouble coming." Bobby snickered and shook his head. "Man, you gotta stop pissin off women!" he laughed. Lightning sighed ans stood up. "I'm gonna go pay a visit to our mayor." Heather then spoke up suggesting "Why don't we just ask Cal? Maybe someone's been messing with him to?" Celia snickered.
Lightning shook his head explaining "Cal won't talk to me at all after that.. Look just.. Whatever.. I'll deal with it. I'm to tired for this drama and I gotta pack to head out to the airport in the morning. Celia, are you still coming?" Celia nodded. "I told Sally and my mom to meet me here at the academy. Leaving the cars here and all getting in the suv. You can ride with us to if you'd like. I have the room." Celia smiled and thanked Lightning. "Good.. Bobby, look after the academy for me while I'm gone.. I'll be back before the weekend hopefully.." He was tired of Cleo and the drama. He needed to deal with her...
Lightning sat down and waited for Cleo to have a moment to see him. It was rrally annoying how Cleo would do this. "Mr McQueen. Cleo can see you now.." her assistant, Sally's old assistant said. Lightning thanked him and went into Cleo's office, shutting the door behind him.
Cleo took one look at Lightning and made this pathetically disgusted and sad expression "Oh wow.. You.. You look horrible, I'm not gonna lie." Lightning sat down. He probably felt just as bad as he looked right now. "What happen? Get into another accident?" she asked. Lightning sighed once before beginning "Did you send Cal a.. Something as me? Under my name?" he asked. Cleo snickered answering "Uh? No. Why would I do that?" "And Sally's motel?" he brought up. Cleo glared some and stood up at her desk.
"Why are you here?" she asked. Lightning looked up and rubbed the side of his head answering "You gotta lay off Sally. You need to tell your boy cop to back off completely and you need to chill the fuck out. I don't really even know why you wanna mess with me, with my family? But it's gotta stop!" Cleo glared. It was like Lightning was just adding fuel to the fire. She came around, slowly. Lightning eyed her and watched her steps.
"What?.." Lightning muttered. Cleo pushed his legs apart with her's then sat down on his lap, wrapping her arms around his neck. "I think.. We can come to an agreement.." She said seductively. Her nose touched his. She smiled and gazed into his eyes. Lightning breathed deeply and heavily. Then Cleo leaned in, pressing their lips together, she immediately made sure he knew what her intentions were! Her tongue entered his mouth and swirled in circles before she took his ans sucked hard and plaufully. Lightning rubbed his hands inside her shirt, her back. Gently rubbing her soft skin as he moaned into her mouth. He kissed her back lustfully then made sure he had a grip on her body as he stood up then slammed her down onto her desk!
Her legs wrapped around him! She moaned and clawed at his face as they kissed with what Cleo thought was passion but Lightning pulled away, straightened his clothes and growled in a low tone "No more. You stop messing with Sally and my friends.." Cleo sat up and closed her legs by crossing them and wiped her lips. "You have no proof Daddy.." Lightning glared but he made his point. There was nothing he could do and she was right. He had no proof. "If your mad at me? You come to me. But leave the town out of it." he added sternly then left. Cleo was warned.
