I do not own Cars, Phantom of the Opera (All I Ask of You), or Collision of Worlds.
The entire town is parked outside Flo's as they watch Mater and Holley take their first cruise as a married couple. The neons are once again lit for the occasion, though there are much fewer cars present than at Lightning and Sally's reception.
The chosen song, All I Ask Of You from Andrew Lloyd Webber's Pacer of the Opera, plays over the speakers.
"Say you love me every waking moment,
turn my head with talk of summertime.
Say you need me with you now and always;
promise me that all you say is true,
that's all I ask of you."
As they pass Flo's café, Mater sees Lighting and Sally looking at each other lovingly in his rearview mirror, no doubt remembering their own wedding. Their reminiscing is soon interrupted by a resounding crash! as Hudson and Hornet, never still except in sleep, have accidentally knocked over some oil cans that Flo had stacked up outside the café.
Mater chuckles to himself. Those two may cause more 'n 'nough of their share of mischief, but they sure do grow on ya…
Holley also notices the twins. Children… I hope any we may have are as sweet as those two… She nearly voices this aloud, but Holley knows how flustered that might make Mater…not knowing he is thinking along the same train of thought.
"Love me…that's all I ask of you," Mater and Holley sing under their breath as the song comes to an end. They share a kiss.
"Come on y'all!" Mater yells to the townscars as the next song comes on over the speakers, Route 66, a proclaimed tradition in Radiator Springs.
Everyone is soon cruising down the road, bobbing in time to the song as they celebrate.
Carlotta is chatting with Flo, both taking a break from the cruising, when she feels a car bump into her. Turning around, she sees a yellow Fiat who seems to be glaring at a small blue forklift.
"Buona sera, signorina," the car says. Good evening, miss.
"Buona sera, signore," Carlotta replies with a smile. Good evening, sir. "Come si chiama?" What is your name?
"M-my name?" he says, obviously nervous and a tad flustered.
"Do you have one?" Carlotta says with a smile.
"Luigi," he says. "I was wondering… That-ah is… Would-ah you… May I have this-ah cruise?"
"Si, it would be my pleasure Luigi," the green Ferrari says.
Finn is watching the celebrating cars from the café. He was never one for cruising or the dancing that has now broken out. He's been trying to ignore it all evening, but he can't shake his worry for the newly weds. It's not that he is worried that they will discover that they are too different to make a life together work. Mater and Holley disproved that long ago. He's worried about their safety more than anything else.
At least Holley kept her last name… that should help Mater keep a little of his anonymity.
Finn is soon pulled out of his thoughts by the hook of a certain tow truck.
"Come on Finn! Yer missin' all da fun!" Mater says to his passenger.
Mater drops Finn off near Holley. "You didn't think we would just let you idle there, did you McMissile?" Holley says to the elder spy car with a smirk.
"I suppose not," Finn replies with a smile. "May I have this cruise Mrs. Shiftwell?"
"Of course, Mr. McMissile," Holley says.
After a few more songs have played, Mater and Holley are back cruising together down Main Street. The song playing, requested by Finn for the newly weds, seems to perfectly fit the couple- a British spy car and an American tow truck.
"Collision of worlds
Watch the new day dawn on a distant shore
In this collision of worlds
No you can't sit this out no more
In this collision of worlds
It's too late and you can't stop it now
Collision of worlds
Find you a place and watch it now…"
A/N- I know, I know... Using songs is discouraged on the site, but I really couln't resist putting Collision of Worlds in there ^^ I hope you liked this chapter! The next chapter will most likely be "The Parents." I hope to have it up sometime soon... I just have to think of a good name for Mater and Holley's kid.
I forgot to thank Mighty ANT for letting me use her idea of Finn marrying Mater and Holley in the last chapter as well as Funkywatermelon for "Kate Middletire"
In the name of all Mater/Holley fluff, review please!
