Cruz sat down at the bar of Wheel Well. The man behind the counter walked up and asked, "Would you like a drink, mam?" Cruz hesitated before depressingly answering, "Yeah, give me something that's not to strong, but like.. Enough." She frowned. The bar tender nodded then walked away a moment. Cruz sighed and dropped her head onto the table. She was hurting. She was hurting and she was angry. How could Lightning want Sally after what she did? How could Cruz ever compete with her? Cruz's heart was giving up on the man she desired most and it hurt a lot. The bar tender walked up and set the small glass down in front of Cruz. She showed id, paid and thanked him as she sat up right.
Sipping on the alcohol. She was just absolutely miserable. A man walked up a few seats over and set an empty glass down, thanking the bartender and placing a tip on the table.
Cruz looked over, recognizing him a little. "Hey." Cruz called, grabbing his attention. Chad stopped and stared at her. "Chad, right?" Cruz asked. Chad walked up and smiled, "Yeah, Cruz?" Of course Cruz nodded and smiled.
Chad snickered and asked, "How about that dinner. Little… Tense.." he awkwardly joked. Cruz blushed a bit and looked away with a frown. Chad stared at her. Something was up. "Hey, don't worry about it. I'm sure no one meant any harm. Sally and Monty are just stressed right now." He assured. That didn't make Cruz feel any better. Cruz only snarled back, "I'm sure after everything she put him through.." Chad could sense the anger in her voice. Did she know what Sally had done? Chad sat down next to Cruz and asked, "So?… You're wanting Monty to coach you again?" Cruz nodded, "Yeah, but I doubt he will.." "Because of the fight you two had?" Chad asked. Cruz looked at Chad a moment before answering, "Sure, yeah.. The fight.." "I'm sure it's nothing." "It's not nothing! Mr. McQueen is being manipulated by her and he doesn't see what I see." "What?" Chad didn't understand.
"Sally?" He questioned. Cruz blushed a bit before answering, "I… No.. I don't know.. I'm confused right now.. Mixed… Feelings…"
Chad stared at her. When she said that, he kind of understood. Thinking about dinner, previous conversations with his brother.. "Oh my god.." Chad muttered. Cruz raised a brow and asked, "What?"
Chad stared at this woman. Monty slept with her!? Of all people, her!? "Fuck.." Chad whispered. Cruz's brows lowered as she snarled, "You know, whispering is rude." "It was you." Chad mumbled aloud. Cruz's expression changed drastically! "What was me?" She asked quick. Chad sighed and just stared. Sure, Cruz was young, beautiful, had more… To play with than Sally, but she was so dam young compared to Monty! "Nothing." He snapped. Cruz blushed. Fuck. He knew, didn't he? Of course he did! He was Lightning's brother! "I should go." Cruz yelped and rushed out of the bar to her room! Chad sat there a moment. Holy crap! Monty slept with his trainer, his young, very young and pretty racer that he was suppose to be coaching! "Shit." Chad mumbled in disbelief.
Cruz closed the door of her room. Letting out a sigh. "This is bad." She said aloud to herself. "Mr. McQueen is going to be so mad." She whined as she fell to the floor.
Crying as she leaned against the door. She loved him. She loved him and she was giving up on him. Probably for the best after seeing how… How happy he made Sally… It was time to give up….
Sally came out of the bathroom in one of Lightning's shirts and crawled into bed next to him. "Stickers… Are you asleep, Lightning?" She whispered as she sat there. Lightning rolled over and looked at her answering, "No.." "What's wrong?" "Nothing…" "I know that… You didn't want to talk to me while you were at the training center because.. I really hurt you, but.. You and Cruz are obviously close.. Closer than I thought.. Um…" she paused. Thinking of her words. Lightning sat up and assured, "Cruz and I are friends. Barely." "Well.. You didn't tell me you saw her at the wedding." Sally reminded. Lightning sighed and frowned, "Yeah… I just… I don't know…" Fuck. He thought of the wedding. What he and Cruz had done. Then he gazed at his wife. He really messed up. Falling for Cruz like he did.
He messed up big time and he hated this. Part of him wanted to tell her. Just admit his wrong doings and move past this, but.. Could she forgive him?
Actually, could he really let Cruz go? He still wanted her. It was wrong, but he didn't have control over these feelings. Sally placed a hand on Lightning's knee and smiled, "I love you, Lightning." "I love you, Sally.." "So?.. Did you and Cruz really get into some sort of fight? Is that really why you stopped coaching her? I thought it was me, because I made you choose? Or is that the lie you told your friends?"
Lightning's eyes widened as he replied, "Kind of both. I.. Cruz and I did get into it a bit, but… You wanted me home, I'm home." "Because I thought something more was going on between you and Cruz." She explained. Lightning snickered, "You don't need to worry about that. Nothing is going on." Now. Sally nodded and apologized, "I'm sorry I made you choose. Personally, if it will make you happy, I want you to coach again. It doesn't have to be Cruz, but I think you should. You enjoyed it and you know it." "I guess…" Lightning replied. Sally sighed and lay down. "Come on. Snuggle up with me." She instructed. Lightning smiled a bit then lying down, he cuddled his wife close. He loved her, he didn't want to lose her or leave her, but.. He craved another sometimes. He needed to get this under control.
Maybe the depression was playing a part in this. Maybe. He just needed to talk to his doctor at the clinic and see if something could be done….
Lightning woke, but kept his eyes closed when he felt Sally's hand push into his pants and begin rubbing his semi hardened member.
Lightning groggily asked, "What are you doing?.." "Enjoying myself.." She whispered in his ear. His eyes snapped open and he turned his head looking at her. "What?" She asked with a smile. Lightning smiled softly answering, "Think you'd let me have a taste before you get me to worked up?" "Awe.. I was enjoying myself though.." Sally whined playfully. Lightning snickered then sat up, Sally removing her hand. Then he crawled over her and gazed down into her eyes before leaning in and kissing her softly. He was still kind of waking up. Sally wrapped her arms around his neck. Pulling him closer as her tongue entered his mouth and she moaned into his mouth. Lightning couldn't believe how horny she had been. Had to be the hormones. The two began making out. They're tongues wrapping all around one another's in circles.
Lightning broke the kiss just to kiss his wife under her chin, kissing the side of her neck, kissing the lower middle of her neck, then sitting up and taking her shirt over her head gently.
Staring down at her nearly nude body. Her breasts seemed larger. Lightning groped her right breast and leaned down, eloping her nipple in his mouth. Yeah, they were slightly bigger. Perks of pregnancy!
His tongue rolled around her nipple before he gently bit down then he let go and move to the left. Kissing, his tongue rolling, biting gently. Sally arching her back and pushing her chest up at him. Fuck, she was sexy. Her breathing became a bit louder. She lowered her back down into the bed. Lightning kissing her between the breasts, kissing her naval, her little baby bump as his hands grabbed her sides above her hips. His warm and soft hands. Sally moaned quietly, reaching above her and grabbing the pillow tightly with her fingers as she spread her legs further. Lightning kissing her right above the hem of her panties before grabbing them and ripping the left hip, "Lightning!" Sally yelped. Lightning smiled and chuckled, "They shouldn't have been made so cheap." Then he kissed her area, making Sally main. Closing her eyes tightly and gripping the pillow firmly.
Lightning wrapped his arms under her legs, holding her hips as he lay there down between her legs. Kissing her area again then wrapping his arms around her thighs so he could use his fingers to stretch her area open for his tongue.
Lightning lapped slowly. Bottom to top. Sally panting as he continued. Lapping then sucking down on her clit.
Doing these slow circles with his tongue over it. Pulling her in close and sucking down on her. "Oooh… Lightning…" She moaned quietly. Lightning smiled, kissing her area then pushing his tongue inside her. "Fuck…" She huffed. Fuck indeed. The way she said that only turned him on more. His mind thinking of all of the horribly sexy things he could do to this woman, if she'd ever let him. And if she weren't pregnant. He'd never hurt her, especially while she was pregnant. "Lightning.." Sally whined. Lightning closed his eyes and enjoyed her sweet yet bitter flavor. Moaning a deep growl into her. The vibrations rattling through her pelvis. "Lightning.." she whined again, arching her back. Lightning lapped up her area. Noticing she tasted. A bit different than usual. A tad more metallic, maybe? Back to sucking her clit. Her moans and shivers enticing him.
Lapping up then sucking her clit. Circling with his tongue. "Lightning.. Please fuck me.." She begged. Lightning sat up, his arms sliding away, then he brushed his thumb over her clit before pushing a single finger inside her.
"More.." Sally begged quietly. Lightning smiled and pushed a second finger inside her. Watching her bite down on her beautiful lower lip.
Lightning positioned himself over her body. Gazing down at her beautiful expressions as he pushed his fingers, in and out, in and out. Praising her with, "That's it, baby.. Just relax.." gazing down at her. "Mmmm…" She moaned. Whimpering as he curled his fingers as he pushed in before pulling out. "Oh!" Sally yelped. Lightning snickered and said, "Ssshhh…" didn't want Carson hearing too much. He loved her faces, her whimpers, her body. Lightning pulled his fingers out and leaned close over her. Sally looked up into his eyes as he said, "Go on.. Beg for it." Smiling in this attractively seductive way. Sally's lips quivered as she smiled and begged, "Please.. Fuck me already, Lightning McQueen." Lightning leaned down and kissed his wife on her forehead, then her lips. Kissing her with such passion as he pushed his member inside her. Sally's eyes clenched shut as she moaned feeling her full her up.
When did he even free his member from his lounge pants?! Then he began a gentle thrust. Kissing her, making out with her lovely face as he thrusted. Rocking his hips in a slow, but forceful way into her.
Sally whimpering into his mouth, she grabbed the bedding tightly as she could feel his member sliding in and out in a way that was edging her closer and closer.
Lightning broke the kiss so that he could breathe, doing so, Sally wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him close. Chest to chest as he continued rocking his hips. The way his pelvis rubbed against her area, her body. "Lightning… I can't.. Keep quiet… I'm about to"-Lightning lifted up and wrapped his hand around her mouth as he continued, picking up speed a bit! Sally looked up into his eyes as he looked down into hers. Her eyes looked watery. Then her insides tightened more and more until she closed her eyes and yelped into his hand! Her waves sucking down on his member. Pulling him in! Lightning pushed in deep and lowered his upper body, resting his forehead over Sally's shoulder as he came! "Mmm.. Sally…" He moaned and growled as he came harder than he had been. It almost hurt how tightly she was squeezing him, draining him of cum.
And the way he growl moaned her name. Sally could not have thought he was sexier! "Fuck.." He whispered as he panted.
Calming down from his climax. Sally patted his shoulder and he let go of her mouth. Letting her open her mouth and pant herself.
Catching her breath. Lightning kissed her shoulder then slowly pulled himself out of her area. Sally whimpered a bit as he did. Lightning collapsed next to her in bed. Sally grabbed the blanket and pulled it over the two of them then snuggled up to his side. Lightning wrapped an arm behind her head and kissed her forehead again. That was some of the best morning sex they have had in a while….
Carson was busy with Sally and her friends and Monty preparing the shower and reveal. Lightning was in charge of running motel breakfast runs. He walked into the cafe and handed Flo the written orders. Flo taking it to the kitchen to prep. Lightning sat at the bar and waited for the meals when Cruz suddenly sat down next to him. Lightning sighed and made sure not to look at her as he greeted, "Good morning…" Cruz looked at him though and greeted, "Good morning.. Um.. I'm.. Sorry about dinner." "Don't worry about it.." Lightning growled. A bit angry on tone. Cruz frowned and looked away. Ashamed. Thinking a moment before continuing, "I promise I tried." "I know.. It wasn't you.." "I… I can do it, you know? Be just friends." "Stop. We're in public." "Sorry…" Cruz mumbled.
Looking down. Lightning glanced at her. He hated seeing her so upset. He looked away. He had Sally and Sally was plenty enough. "I'm sorry.." He mumbled, grabbing her attention.
Cruz shrugged saying, "Nah, it's nothing to worry about. I just hope you'll come coach me again." She smiled. Lightning looked at her. Staring. He didn't look very happy with her though.
Cruz's smile faded, frowning again. Lightning didn't say anything. Just looked away again. Cruz sighed. Thinking. Trying to think of something to make Lightning open up. Maybe a way that would show she was just wanting her coach back and not her lover. A way that Sally would even see and think that him coaching would be good and she would push more! How?! Cruz was desperate. But she wasn't having any good ideas. Flo walked up and asked, "Need anything, Cruz?" Cruz shook her head, "No, thanks. I had breakfast in my room." "Alright. Well don't hesitate to ask if you need something." Then walked away. Cal and Bobby walked into the cafe. Chatting. They stopped and saw Lightning. Lightning looked at them and out on a bit of a smile.
Cruz then lit up as she came up with an idea! She hopped off her barstool seat and shouted, "I challenge you!" Pointing at Lightning.
Everyone inside the cafe stared at her, including Lightning who asked, "What?" Cruz blushed a little seeing everyone stare at her. "Yeah.. I.. I challenge you, Lightning McQueen!"
A few people inside gasped and muttered amongst each other. Lightning glanced at his two friends as he stood up, then back at Cruz and whispered, "Please… Don't do this…" Cruz snickered and crossed her arms, "Scared? Old man. I challenge you to a race. The old dirt track. Willy's butte. Tonight at sunset." "Cruz…" Lightning whined, but people around started getting excited and cheered her on! A few people standing and clapping their hands with excitement. Cal even shouting, "That sounds like a great idea!" Lightning put on a smile for the on lookers and stared at Cruz. Cruz asking, "Not scared, are you?" Then a random person shouted, "Do it!" Another then shouting, "Show her who's the Cup champion!" Lightning sighed and nervously answered, "Yeah… Alright…"
The people on the cafe cheered and applaud! More of pressuring him. Excited for the challenge! Lightning didn't seem very excited though.
Some fans came up and were complimenting him, cheering him on. He just put on a smile, a show. Fuck. He did not want to do this.
Bobby looked at Cal and asked, "Are you sure this is a good idea?" Cal shrugged answering, "Of course. Why wouldn't it be?" "Well, Lightning doesn't seem so excited.." "Eh, he will be fine. Maybe this is the push he needs." Cal said. Bobby stared across the cafe at Lightning. He just wasn't so sure this kind of push is what he needed….
Everyone was gathered at the McQueen residence. Ramone, Flo, Luigi, Guido, Filmore, Sarge, Lizzie, Mater, Minty, Chad, Carson, Red, Bobby, Jesse, Cal, Meg..everyone!
All for the reveal and support of their friends. Lizzie walked up to Lightning and said, "Congratulations on the wedding. Bout time you purposed." Walking away. Sally snickered standing next to him. It was funny in Lizzie's own way.
Bobby walked up and asked, "You two excited?" Sally answered, "Of course! I can't even decide what I hope it is!" Jesse leaned on her husband's shoulder and said, "I'm happy for the two of you. You two are going to be great parents." "Thanks, Jesse." Sally replied with a smile. Bobby crossed his arms and snickered, "I still last longer." Lightning immediately glared at his friend. Bobby then asking, "Have you told her?" Lightning turned a bit pale and asked, "Told her what?…" Sally looked at her husband. He was acting weird. Bobby snickered, "The race? Tonight?.. At sunset?" "Oh that! No." Lightning answered. Sally then curiously asked, "What race tonight?" Bobby chuckled, "Cruz challenged him to a race." "What?" "Yeah, and this idiot accepted." Lightning glared at his friend for that.
Sally looked at Lightning. "But you haven't raced the Bolt in months. Are you sure that's a good idea?" She asked. Lightning sighed, "Doesn't matter. She challenged me in front of everyone. Town folk, citizens, fans.. I couldn't say no." He explained.
Sally stared at him knowing.. He couldn't say no because then other people would catch onto his depression and anxiety and the fact that he'd not been driving.
Carson then walked up behind his daughter and grabbed her attention, "Everything is ready for the reveal." He announced. Sally looked at her husband with such excitement! Lightning chuckled saying, "Alright, alright. Let's go." Sally grabbed his hand and basically yanked him along with her as she rushed to the main area. Jesse snickered and asked, "Aren't they adorable." "Yeah, I just hope it last." "What do you mean, Bobby?" Jesse asked.
Bobby frowned a bit before answering, "Well, you know?.. A baby brings a lot of stress.. I am positive Sally can handle it. It's Lightning I'm worried about." Jesse giggled replying, "He will have Sally to help. He'll be fine." "I hope so…" Bobby mumbled before the two of them made their way to the crowd.
Lightning Sally walked up to the large box that was wrapped in blue and pink marble wrapping paper. Carson walked up and admitted, "Minty thought it looked better than a plain box." Sally nodded, "Looks great. Ready?" She asked her husband.
Lightning smiled at her. She was so happy, so excited. Lightning glanced at Carson who didn't look every happy to even see Lightning. That hurt, but yeah. Lightning was grateful that Carson was keeping his secret from Sally. Flo walked up and shouted, "Open the box!" Then Ramone added, "Team boy!" Lightning chuckled a bit then looked at his extremely happy and excited wife. Sally grabbed one side, Lightning the other. Mater then came to the front and said, "On the count of three! One… Two… Three!" Sally and Lightning opened the top of each side and out flew baby blue balloons onto the sky! Lightning and Sally both looking up. Lightning gazing at Sally. She'd never been happier. She'd never been more beautiful. Sally looked at Lightning with such a smile. "It's a boy!" Carson shouted!
Everyone cheered for them! Baby Colton Hudson McQueen! Sally suddenly jumped and hugged her husband tightly. Lightning wrapped his arms around her. She was so happy. He never wanted this joy to leave her.. Never….
… Sunset …
Lightning pulled up in his corvette with Sally in the passenger seat. People from all over town were already gathered. Fans, town folk, random people really. Mostly strangers. Lightning pulled up to the 'starting line' if you will, next to Cruz's race car. Sally glanced over at it and asked, "Did she really have her car shipped out here?" Lightning looked at it. Staring at the people cheering from inside the car. Sally grabbed his attention by placing her hand on his upper thigh. Lightning looked at her and put on a smile. "I got this." He assured calmly. Sally smiled, but she didn't like this. It had been too long. Lightning wasn't prepared for this. "Sure you do." She said encouraging him. Lightning snickered then looked down at the steering wheel. Sally then asking, "Why not go and grab the Bolt?" "I don't need it for this. The vette is fine. I'll lose anyway." He answered. Sally's brows lowered, "What?" She asked, "But this is dirt. This is your track-Doc's track. You basically grew your entire career based off this track. Is it because you've not been driving lately?" "That and I taught her how to drive." "What do you mean?" Sally asked softly.
Lightning sighed admitting, "I taught Cruz the trick. She knows how to drive on dirt, sand, mud.. I.. She's… She is so much better than I ever was, Sally." "I doubt that." "She is! She learned what took me years with Doc in just a week. Not even that!.. I'm.. I'm sorry, but.. I can't win this one… I can't win any of them anymore.." And gah! The way he said that, hurt. It cut Sally like a knife. She did not know that Lightning took time and trained Cruz, not entirely. He was her coach, that was all. Sally finally snapped and asked, "What the hell happened at that training center? She was suppose to help you! What on earth did she actually do!?" But then Ramone tapped on the window. Lightning sighed and rolled it down. "Ready?" Ramone asked. Lightning nodded saying, "Yeah, let's do it." "Alright then." Ramone replied before stepping away and giving a thumbs up to Cruz. Sally looked upset, maybe even angry. Lightning knew he was going to have questions to answer later about his time with Cruz. But Sally got out the car, slamming the door shut. Fuck. Lightning closed his eyes and took a deep breath. Fuck, he messed up with Cruz! He should have never took her along in the trailer to begin with,
…. Cruz stood up as Lightning sat up. She reached for his hand to help and he glared even meaner at her! Then she lost her balance again and fell right in between his legs, into his lap! Her chest pressing against his pelvis and her face at his lower chest cavity! She looked up and blushed an even brighter red! Lightning's glare turned into a different expression. His brows raised, eyes widened as he stared down at her.
Her breasts peaking though her top as they were being pushed against his pelvis and her big, puppy dog, brown eyes staring up at him with her rosy red face. Cruz was frozen from embarrassment! Lightning snickered nervously with a smile. "Um.!.Uh." He muttered not able to find words. His eyes definitely stared at her breasts a few times! Cruz stared. He was acting different. It was weird…
Never let her get close to him,
…Lightning suddenly opened his eyes and sat up on the couch. Breathing heavily. His chest hurt. His breathing. Oh no. He knew this feeling! He grabbed at his chest. Panicking. Barely able to breathe! His panic woke Cruz. She sat up from bed and stared. "Mr. McQueen?" She questioned. When he looked over, she saw the panic in his eyes! Cruz instantly jumped out of the bed and ran to him! Jumping in front of him on the couch! "Mr. McQueen! What's wrong!?" She asked. Lightning just breathed heavier and heavier. Faster and faster! "Mr. McQueen, you're having a panic attack!" She screamed at him! He was gone. Panicking. "Hold on!" She shouted!…
Never built that bond,
… "Can you do the thing?" She asked.
Lightning raised a brow. Blushing, "What thing?" He asked. Cruz smiled, biting her lower lip. "The thing. The Kachow. I haven't seen it in years! And never in person!!'" She exclaimed. Lightning stared a moment. "Seriously?" He asked. Cruz nodded. Placing her hands in a begging position. Lightning stared. Sighed. Then rolled his eyes and leaned his right shoulder forward, "Kachow." He growled. Cruz's brows lowered. She crossed her arms and scolded, "That wasn't very good. It's more like, KACHOW!" She said as she popped her shoulder forward. Lightning stared at her. He tried not to, but he laughed! Grabbing his stomach as he laughed so hard it hurt!…
Never fell for her beauty, friendship, her heart,
… Lightning swallowed nervously.
Staring at her. He placed a hand on top of Cruz's head. "Thank you." He muttered. Cruz just stood frozen. Still holding onto his jacket. Confused.
Listening as he continued softly, "Thank you for making me see the good.. For bringing me back.. For being there through so much even though you have no clue what's going on with me some times."
Cruz smiled up at him. Lightning's hand brushed down the side of her face. Brushing some hair behind her ear. Cruz blushed.
Staring with fear. A good fear. Lightning held the palm of his hand over the side of her face. His hand warm to her skin. "Mr. McQueen?.." Cruz questioned his intentions. Gripping his jacket more intensely. Lightning stared down in her eyes. They stood like this for what felt like eternity. Gazing into one another. She wanted to be his in this moment. The stars making their eyes sparkle…
He never should have touched her like that!
… Unzipping the dress all way down to her ass. Cruz slid her shoulders out and the dress dropped to the floor. Lightning didn't hesitate and pushed her shoulders down into the bed. Bending her upper body into the bed, he leaned over her. Kissing her shoulders. His pelvis pushing against her ass. Wearing a thong and no bra. She had him needy as hell! His member filling erected in his pants. Lightning placed delicate kisses over her shoulders. If they went all the way, he needed to be extremely gentle as it was her first time. Cruz moaned. Grabbing the blankets. The way his hard member pushed against her ass and area through his pants. "Ooooh, Mr. McQueen..." She moaned…
Never should have heard her sounds, felt her pleasure,
Her face red as hell. "Don't stop, Mr. McQueen... I.. I want to feel every inch.. Every centimeter! Oh!,. " Her grip on his arms tightened! " want to feel you fuck me. Oh fuck! I'm... Something's happening.." She whined. Lightning could feel it. Her insides were tensing up. Oh yeah, he was rubbing her just right. She was about to cum hard! "That's it, baby... You're almost there... Cum for me.. I want you to moan my name.. Tell me how much vou want me inside you." "Oh fuck! " Cruz yelped. But dam was she enjoying this. Her mouth gasped open, eyes rolling, blushing face, sweating, tears, "Oh yes... Yes!... Fuck I can't stand it, Mr. McQueen! Fuck me harder! I want to cum again! I don't want to be able to walk! I want you to fuck me forever! I don't ever want your member to leave my body.. it's so... Fucking... Good... Aaahhhh!" She screamed as her body climaxed!……
He never should have let this relationship cross the line it did.
……
Cruz revved her engine. Guido stepped out with a flag. Excited as ever! The flag waved as it went down and Cruz gunned it! Speeding off with a cloud of dust behind her and Lightning followed! Shifting the vette up as they both came to turn one. Cruz with Lightning right on her tail! The crowd cheered them on! Everyone rooting for both! Sally watched as what Lightning had predicted was happening. But he was just using a street car. Maybe if we would have used the bolt. Cruz came down turn two gunning it down the straight away and turning right to go left, she drifted beautifully around the turn. Just as Lightning had taught her. He barely even taught her!
She was just that talented! Lightning came down and slowed the vette. Making no need for him to do the trick, as Cruz crossed the make shift finish line! People applauded and cheered. Lightning came round that last turn, slowed the vette down and coming to a touring stop. Everyone ran to the racers. Lightning got out and fans and friends cheered him and surrounded him and Cruz. Pictured were taken. And Sally saw it. That smile he had on his face as the press, the cameras, the fans. How fake it really was! It broke her heart. Why was he doing that? Why was he unhappy with himself? She hated that fake smile. She just wanted him to be happy? Was the medication not working anymore?….
Lightning finished getting ready for bed and met up with wife in bed. Covering himself a she lay down and got comfortable. Sally scooted I'm close, snuggling with him when she asked, "Are you happy it's a boy?" Lightning chuckled answering, "Relieved." That made Sally giggle a bit. But she had to ask, "Why are you so unhappy?" "I'm not." "I saw the fakest smile on you that I think I have ever seen after that race with Cruz." She growled. Lightning sighed admitting, "Alright, fine. It's not all of the time, Sally. Just.. Sometimes." "Sometimes?.." "I don't know how to explain it. It's not that I'm unhappy. I just… Don't feel.."-"Happy…" "Sal…" "You should speak with your doctor." She suggested.
Lightning frowned a bit, "I will." He assured. Sally nestled in. Deciding not to prime much more tonight. Instead, just laying next to her true love as they fell asleep. Dreaming of the day they would get to meet their sweet baby….
