Chapter 4
Soon Christmas was upon us and Han was at the house on Christmas Eve for our little party. Han and I had grown really close in the past few months; he helped keep Eric away too. I had gotten Han a cell phone and put pictures that I and my friends had taken since Han and I met. When I handed him his present he seemed kind of sad I could tell, I knew he hadn't gotten me anything. He opened it and looked through the pictures he hugged me and told me he loved it. After an hour he went and talked to Malachi and Pharux for a little while, Pharux was being pretty close to Christian. After talking to Malachi and Pharux, Han came back to me and grabbed my hand taking me outside and to his car, "Where are we going?" I ask curious. "You'll see." Was all he said as he smiled from ear to ear handing me my sketchpad. I look at him puzzled and he drives and pulls up in front of a tattoo parlor. He leans over and kisses my cheek, "Merry Christmas Lizzy. You're getting your first tattoo." We walk in hand and hand and I get my first tattoo. During the whole process I lay there talking to Han about cars telling him that when I make enough money I am going to buy myself an orange and black Mazda RX7 with a Vileside body kit. When the tattoo is finished we both leave and head back to the party where I show off my Christmas present. Life was great but I knew better then to let my guard down quite yet.
Han was meeting Pharux and I at a party on New Year's Eve, we waited for him and when I finally saw him across the pool the look in his eyes told me there was something seriously wrong. Han looked so distant, I bumped Pharux and asked, "Remember what happened to me after that thing with that girl named, Stacy Lee Sage." Pharux looks at me; my eyes are still on Han, he follows my eyes before saying, "What of it?" I start moving towards Han Pharux following me, "Han just did the same mistake, I see it in his eyes." Pharux then denies it without words, "No he didn't, he's innocent." I respond back, "Wanna bet? I had that look in my eyes to." I hurry over to Han who pushes me away a little when I try to hug him, I lean close whispering in his ear," I know what you did. I can help you." Han's eyes grow wide as I whisper ever so quietly into his ear, "Murder is not well hidden in your eyes love. Follow me and I'll explain." With that I turn and head for the gate, Han follows me. "Now isn't the best time to speak of this come to the house after the party I'll let the guys know what we're going to discuss tonight." I tell Pharux to head home without me, I'm staying with Han. Han and I sit through the rest of the party in silence, and then he takes Ben, Daric, and Virgil home. He drove slowly to my house where the boys were waiting to tell our story.
An hour later Han and I walked into the house, the house was dimly lit and the guys were all sitting in the living room in silence. Han and I sat on one of the other sofas, a minute later I finally spoke up, "About a year ago is when it happened, her name was Stacy Lee Sage. She had been dating Chico for almost 6 months and she was sleeping with people behind his back, whenever she was around she treated me like garbage, like I was a whore and she never treated any of us well not even Chico. One day she wanted to meet up with me and my friends and we beat the shit out of her we didn't realize until it was too late that we had killed her, we dumped the body in the river with cinder blocks. I went into a state like what you're in Han; all I want to do is help you." Han nods and tells us about what happened, he spent the night clinging to me.
A few weeks later I was sitting at home getting ready for the races that night when my cell phone rang, it was Han. "What's up sweetheart?" I asked sitting down on my bed. "It's Virgil he shot himself in the head, I don't know what to do I'm at the hospital will you come up and be with me I called Ben and Daric already." His voice was quiet and shaky. "Of course, let me tell Malachi and Pharux and I'll be up ok?" I say in a soft and calm voice. "Thank you, Lizzy." He says before hanging up. I change my shoes and grab a jacket rushing downstairs and telling Malachi and Pharux then heading out the door, I stop and grab some coffee and 2 sandwiches before heading to the hospital. I pass Ben as I walk in; I ride the elevator up and see Daric sitting there with his back against the wall looking pathetic. I headed to the room they told me Virgil was in and I open the door, coffee in hand. Han looks up as I walk in he takes the coffee and sandwiches from me and sits me on his lap. We sit there in silence watching Virgil for about an hour before he tells me Virgil wasn't going to make it. A tear rolled down his cheek and I wiped it away and kissed his forehead. "I want to shave my head for him." Han says hugging me close. "Then let's go. I'll go with you so you don't have to be alone." I say as I try to drag him out of the chair. We went and I sat by him as he shaved his head for Virgil and then we went back to my house. The next few weeks were the same between us it was a silent understanding of everything. One day before the last day of school I saw what I feared the most, a single person from a group of people in Detroit that was looking for us. I told Pharux and Malachi that night, they were in the city looking for us. We agreed after our last day of school we would leave that night for Miami to stay for a few months until we got a plan together and so we could leave for Tokyo, Japan; our Mexico.
That last week of school I told Han I wanted to take him to meet some people so he could go far in the world of street racing. I introduced him to my suppliers in LA for my car parts; they had all agreed to get him connections. The last day I told him I was introducing him to the place where I race every week. He followed me to LA to the races, just me no one else, when we got there we were standing by our cars. He was sitting on the hood of my black with neon yellow stripes 1999 Nissan Skyline GTR R34 he fished out a pack of cigs and I snagged them and wag my finger, "Never smoke it's bad for your health." I hand him a bag of chips and tell him, "If you keep your hands and mouth busy you won't have to smoke ever again." Han nods and starts eating the chips. We stay there waiting for half an hour then Dom shows up, I introduce Han to Dom and pull Dom to the side asking him to take care of Han because I needed to bolt before my past caught up with me. "Dom please for me, you have my number if you need my help call me I'll never change it, it'll be off for a few months though. I just need to leave before he gets pulled in to the mess I'm in." I beg Dom he agrees and I head back to my car telling Han something happened at home that I would be back soon, I hated lying to him like this but I had to. Right before I got in the car I said, "Hey Han, you know how in the old westerns the cowboys make their way to Mexico? Well Tokyo, Japan is my Mexico; if anything ever happened to me that is where you'll probably find me." I then got in my car and drove back to the house crying as I packed my bags and threw them in Pharux's car, a black with gold trim Lotus Evora Enduro GTE. We had been packing everything up the past week and put everything in to storage. Christian was driving my car I was riding with Pharux who had slept almost all day. We left in the dead of night me curled up in the passenger seat of Pharux's car.
