Lightning searched for his contract in the files he had in a box in the garage. Trying to see what exactly it read now that he was cornered. Sally walked into the garage to see the mess that Lightning was making and had to ask, "What are you doing exactly?" Lightning looked up but back down and continued looking for the contract as he explained vaguely. "I need to go over the contract I have with Mr. O'Reilly." "Why? Is everything okay?" Lighting paused and stared at Sally before muttering and lying, "Um.. Yeah. I just wanted to go over some things with him but I.. I needed to be sure about a few things first." "MMhmm," Sally mumbled. Sure didn't sound like she completely believed him though.
Sally walked over and lent out her hand. Lightning took it and she pulled him up. Facing her husband with a smile. "Why don't you take a break, hmm?" She suggested kindly. Lightning sighed and glanced down at his paper mess. Sally pulled his face towards hers and softly kissed his lips. Looking up into his blue eyes. "I love you, Stickers." SHe cooed. This made Lightning all warm and fuzzy inside as he replied, "I love you too." Sally then looked him up and down and asked, "Want to go back inside and... Have a little fun?" Lightning snickered and asked, "Depends." "On?" "I need to talk to you.." Lightning admitted. Sally's smile faded as she asked, "What's wrong?" Lightning sighed. Taking her hands into his and thought about what Cal had said. Talk to your wife.
Lightning frowned a bit before admitting, "I don't want to start having unprotected sex yet. I don't want you pregnant yet." Sally stared at him. A little hurt-no.. Very hurt. "What?.. But.. But I thought you... But before? During the honeymoon.. Last week you said"-"I know what I said and I regretted it since." Lightning admitted. Sally gasped a bit. Pulling her hands away from his and took a step back. Lightning quickly began pleading, "Don't be upset.. Please. I.. I'm not saying we have to stop not preventing anything. I'm just.. Talking to you.. About how I feel... What I want or... Rather don't want..." He muttered. Feeling sort of bad.
Sally stared at the floor. The mess of papers, the car, or anything other than Lightning at this moment. Lightning tried calling her, "Sally... Just... Talk to me.. Please?" Pleading his wife. Sally looked at him. Just staring but no words. Just... Staring at him. "Sal?.." Lightning questioned. Sally sighed before finally answering, "I'm... Glad you told me.. I guess... Um...What about our plans?" "Well... Technically, the plan was to start trying during the offseason and then in the heat of things.. I think I just.. I don't know, but... I don't want to start trying yet." He admitted. Sally sighed. Thinking. Debating if she should fight for what she wanted or just give it up for now. Sally nodded and said, "Okay. It's fine. We don't have to want the same things at the same time. That's Normal.. And... I guess we did technically agree to start trying once the cup was over with this season, so... We can start trying then." She began to leave when Lightning stopped her by grabbing her hand and asking, "Are you okay?" Sally stared at him a moment before answering, "Yeah, of course..." They pulled away and walked into their home. She clearly was a little heartbroken and Lightning was the one responsible...
"And Lightning takes first place today in ole Bama speedway! " Announced Darrel.
Lightning waved to the fans as he stood on the podium. Second place, Bobby Swift, and third, Jeff Gorvette. After a few photos from and for the press and a few fans, Lightning stepped down the stage and was greeted by O'Reilly. The man wrapped an arm around Lightning's shoulder and smiled, "That was a great race there, Champ. That new crew you hired is quite good. Now you just need a crew chief." Lightning glared at O'Reilly then pushed his hand off before replying, "I'm working on that." Then a woman with a camera died, "Can I get a picture of the two of you?" O'Reilly smiled happily with a yes! Pulling Lightning close, the rich man and racer smiled for the photo then the woman left.
"Walk with me, Lightning." Ordered O'Reilly. Lightning followed as the man questioned, "So can I expect you will talk to Tiffany?" "Um.. Sure." "And will train her the best you can?" "Uh.. Yeah.." "Good. Now, to make things easier on you and me, I am sending Tiffany to Radiator Springs for some personal training with you." O'Reilly announced. Lightning stopped dead in his tracks. "What!?" "I want her to be great and make a good profit for the team and my school." "Sir, my home?" "Is that a problem?" O'Reilly asked. Staring into Lightning's soul. Lightning sighed before muttering, "Not really.. I just.. I don't know what you should expect.. I'm no trainer or mentor." "DOc taught you. Just pass down that knowledge." "Tiffany doesn't even care about it though." Lightning snarled. O'Reilly only scoffed, "I'll make sure she's care. You just be ready to help her out once she gets to your town." O'Reilly then pulled out his wallet and a paper check from there. Handing to the racer. "An early bonus for helping my daughter improve. Once she shows improvement, there will be another just like it." Lightning glanced at the check and his eyes widened.
"We have a deal?" O'Reilly asked. Lightning looked at the man and nodded. No words, just a few nods. O'Reilly smiled and walked away. Lightning stared at the numbers. How could he say o the amount of money just to get Tiffany a bit better at racing? It was easy money. Too easy some might say...
Sally stared at the check. Astonished! "And this is just one of two for training Tiffany?" She asked. LIghtning nodded as he grabbed himself a drink. "Yeah, that's it." Sally hung the check on the fridge as she asked, "So she's staying here? IN Radiator Springs?" Lighting sipped his water and nodded, "That's the plan." "Where? I don't have rooms available.." Sally admitted. Lightning stared at his wife. "You don't?" He asked. Sally shook her head but seeing the large check she suggested, "She fawn stay with us. IT's just for a week or so, right?" LIghtning nearly spit his drink out! Sally glared and snarled, "Bit dramatic there..." Lightning set down his water and explained, "Having Tiffany stay with us is a very bad idea. She's-she's-she's a trouble maker."
"How so?" Asked Sally. Lightning sighed. Staring at Sally a moment before answering, "She just is." Growling. Sally frowned. She heard the rumors and things that were accused. But she trusted Lightning. With just about anyone except Josie. Sally hated Josie deep inside. Sally caressed the side of Lightning's face. Her smile faded and she began to walk away. but Lightning grabbed her arm and stopped her. "Hey, what's wrong?" He asked. Sally sighed, "Nothing. It's nothing." "You are lying. TO your husband, might I add? Come on. WHat's bothering you, Sal?" He pushed. Sally snickered, her smile coming back slightly. She looked up into his eyes admitting, "I really.. Really wanted to start trying to have a baby. With you!" She exclaimed.
Lightning chuckled assuring, "And we will. Right after the cup." Pulling his wife in and hugging her tightly. Sally looked up and asked, "Promise?" LIghtning's eyes widened slightly, his brows raised. Fuck. A promise? He did not want to promise that but, "Yeah.. I promise. After the cup." "Okay. But you promised." Sally reminded. LIghtning smiled and nodded. Sally stood up onto her toes and kissed Lightning's lips. SO soft and sweet to the touch. Kissing a little more intensely and moaning slightly. LIghtning broke the kiss. Smiling as he did so and gazing into his wife's eyes. "You want it?" He husked. Sally bit her lower lip and asked, "Depends.. Think you can give it to me?" LIghtning only grew more interested in the subject. "Oh, I can give it to you. But can you handle it?" He teased.
Sally snickered and joked, "I'm Mrs. McQueen, I can handle anything." Lightning rolled his eyes but picked Sally up and warned, "Just remember, you asked for this. Anything that happens from this moment forward is out of my control." "OH just take me to the bedroom and fuck me already Mr. McQueen." Sally taunted. Lightning growling, "With pleasure." Taking his wife to the bedroom where he tossed her onto the bed!
Sally yelped but also laughed a bit as she landed on the covers. Lightning quickly took off his shirt, unbuttoning his pants and tossing them aside. Crawling up onto the bed in nothing but his underwear now. Sally giggled, her cheeks blushing as he came over her. Gazing down into her face with a handsome smile. He leaned in and kissed her passionately. Sally only moaned into her husband's mouth. Lightning's member pressed and grew against Sally's area. But she was still completely clothed and that could be a problem.
So Lightning broke the kiss. Staring down into Sally's eyes. "You are beautiful." He complimented. Sally smiled. But then Lightning sat upon his knees and took her pants and panties at once. Tossing them aside to the floor. Spreading her legs and looking directly between her legs. The most beautiful sight before him. The warmest, pleasurable, moist, ready area he had ever seen. Making him drool a bit. Swallowing his saliva down as he hungered for a taste.
Lightning looked up to Sally's red face and in a deep tone said, "I'm going to enjoy you now." Before lowering his face down and between her legs. His lips placed gentle kisses at her hole. Sally moaned. Pushing her head back against the pillow. Lightning used his tongue most perfectly. Making Sally grab the blankets tightly in a fist. Lightning closed his eyes and enjoyed her flavor. Groaning slightly as he lapped up his wife's juices. Making her moan and shiver for him. Lightning continued to lick her hole. Darting his tongue in and out slightly. Picking slowly upwards, flicking across her clit. Then eloping and sucking down onto her. Making Sally wriggle with uncontrollable pleasure.
Nothing beats this. This was his favorite. Tasting a good woman. Using his tongue to enjoy himself and please the woman. She smelt amazing. Such a fresh and wet area. Lightning grabbed Sally by the hips and pulled her down further into his face. Growling as he ate up his wife. Sally only arched her back! Moaning louder! Lightning did not let up! He did not cease, pause, take a breather, or anything because all he wanted was this! He just wanted to keep licking her, keep tasting her, making her moan endlessly forever!
"S-S-Stickers... I can't.. Take.. Much more..." Sally heaved. Lightning stopped and sat up. Staring down at his wife and panting. He was a tad out of breath from lack of oxygen down there. But he would gladly suffocate between her thighs. Sally looked at him with her red flushed face. It was the hottest face in the world! Lightning crawled over her shivering body. HIs member barely breezing over her area. The couple stared directly into each other's eyes a moment before Lightning began placing gentle kisses along her neck and shoulder. So gentle, quiet... SO softly and easy. As if she were made of glass and would shatter with the slightest pressure. He grinds his member against her very wet area between her legs. Sally moaned quietly.
Lightning made his soft kisses up to her ear lobe. Sucking gently and letting out a quiet moan next to her ear. Sally let out a deep breath of pleasure and relaxation. Closing her eyes and felt his lips upon her neck. Lightning used his left hand to rub her arm. From her elbow up to her shoulder. Letting upwards gently then back down, then up, and into her hair. Combing it between his fingers. Kissing Sally's cheek and muttering, "I love you, Sally.." Those words melted her heart. Lightning kissed the other side of her face and cooed, "My wife.. My love.. My forever.." Kissing her forehead. He was so sweet and tender right now. Sally looked beautiful beneath him too. How could he not be so in love with her!? She was more than perfect. More than he deserved!
Sally reached around the back of his neck and gently pulled his face to hers. Their lips met so softly. Kissing each other and making out quietly. Sally's hand glided over Lightning's muscular back. Feeling his warm, soft skin over her palms as LIghtning closed his eyes and took every moment in of this. Kissing upon her neck again, then her shoulder then sitting up and removing his member from the restraint of his undergarments. He lay over top of her. Making out as he pushed himself inside her. Sally breathed in heavily through her nose. Her body accepted his. She cradled his face in her hands as they kissed and made love. Such slow and gentle love Lightning keeping the rhythm.
A slow and gentle pace. Sally broke the kiss so that she could breathe. Lightning kissed the crook of her neck and shoulder. Sucking slightly as he thrust. Make careful movements. Taking himself almost completely out then back in. Over and over but carefully. Kissing his wife's body. The two connect as one. Lightning made sure she felt an entire being in her. Making sure to give her all of the love he had to give. To let her know how much he loved her, how much he wanted and needed her alone. That he loved her so much. Through his love language of touch, sex, silently with his body. And she felt it. She knew. Sally could feel how much love he had for her at this moment. How this rough and wild man could become the most tender, gentle being she had ever come into contact with...
Tiffany walked into the McQueen home. She looked around with her head a little then complimented, "It's cute. So much smaller than I expected." LIghtning raised a brow and asked, "What were you expecting?" Tiffany shrugged answering, "I don't know. A little more I guess. Bigger. Couple stories, a hall of nothing but photos of you and your shouldering stare." LIghtning blushed a little. Maybe in a past life, he would have had something like that. Sally walked up and teased, "You know, I kind of like the idea. A hall of nothing but poster-sized photos of you and your many attractive faces." LIghtning glared at his wife. Sally then took Tiffany by the hand and said, "Come, I'll show you the guest room." Tiffany nodded and walked with Sally. Glancing back at Lightning who seemed a bit uneasy at the moment.
Sally walked into the guest room and began, "I know it's not much, but we barely live here anyway. Lightning and I are always so busy, we just sleep here." Tiffany giggled and said that she completely understood. Sally then walked up to the girl and continued, "Now... There are rules. Clean up after yourself, keep the guest room tightly, do your own laundry, keep your things in here and dress modestly in my home. Don't invite anyone over and do not flirt with my husband." She warned. Tiffany smiled and assured, "That won't be a problem." "Good," Sally replied as she left the room. Closing the door behind her...
Lightning sat on the hood of the Bolt. Staring out at the old dirt track. It was so quiet and peaceful out here. Nothing but the wind to make any noise. It was moments like this when Lightning missed Doc. Man, he could use the old timer's aid right now. Lightning stared at the track. Watching dust and weeds blow away in the wind. Suddenly a car engine revved up. He turned around to see Tiffany. The young lady pulled up next to the Bolt and shut off the engine. Getting out and standing in front of Lightning. "So?..." She mumbled. Lightning sighed and asked, "Do you actually want a career in racing? I would have asked sooner, but your Father..." "Yeah, no, I... I mean sure. I enjoy it a little." Answered the girl.
"But do you want a lifetime career in it?" Asked the champ. Tiffany shrugged answering, "IT's what my Dad wants, so I'm doing it." Lightning sighed then asked, "Have you ever raced on dirt?" "No." "Of course not.." Lightning growled. Tiffany shrugged once more saying, "Look... We don't have to do any sort of training, Lightning. My Dad just wants to see me improve. I honestly can just start trying more at the races and he'll think you worked with me." "You don't try already?" LIghtning questioned. Tiffany stared a moment before answering, "It depends on my mood. I do try at times but not usually. I just race for the heck of it." Lightning's brows lowered. He began to grow a hatred for the spoiled brat, Tiffany O'Reilly...
Lightning finished his meal at the cafe and tossed the trash away before waving old he to Flo and beginning his search for his wife. Mater walked over and asked, "Hey, Buddy! You wanna hang out tonight?" Lightning sighed, "Maybe.. I have that girl here. I don't know if I can trust her alone with Sally yet." "What girl. Oh! O'Reilly's kid?" Asked the old tow truck driver. Lightning nodded. Mater walked with Lightning over to the cozy cone where he saw a figure in the office and assumed it was Sally. So he and Mater walked on into the office. Lightning greeting, "Hey, Sal." But the woman that was on her knees, sifting through files behind Sally's desk was not Sally. It was Tiffany. The racers stared directly at each other. LIghtning growing furious as he asked in a threatening tone, "What are you doing?..." Tiffany shut the file drawer and stood up. Hiding her hands behind her back and answering, "Uh-I.. Nothing.. Really.. Just.. Looking for the um-I-I... I was just.." She sighed. Not being able to think of a lie.
Lightning looked to his friend and ordered, "Leave us, Mater." Mater hesitated but left. Tiffany watched by sold man leave. The little bell above the door dinging. ONce alone. She blushed and asked, "So.. I'm guessing you want an explanation?..." Lightning crossed his arms and asked, "What the hell are you doing in here, and why are you going through the files of the motel?" Tiffany frowned answering, "I wasn't meaning to. It just.. I got bored and fought I could find some cool history about the motel. It is a unique specimen Caution cones? I mean.. The collection on the shelf is bad enough!" She laughed. Lightning glanced at Sally's little caution cone collection then snapped at the young lady, "What did your Dad send you here for?" "My Dad?" Questioned the girl.
Lightning stepped up closer to her and explained, "Yeah, your Dad. He made it very clear that he was just using you to keep tabs on me. What does he need?" Tiffany's brows lowered as she defended, "I'm not one of my Dad's pawns! I am the one who is going to take the company from him! I am his number two! I can do whatever I want!" "Then why race!?" LIghtning yelled! "We both know you don't want to!" Tiffany only became more defensive and snapped back with, "Maybe you should mind your own business!" "You are my business!" LIghting shouted in her face! Tiffany and Lighting stared deathly into each other's eyes. Both slightly confused and angry with each other. "Get out of the office and do not let me see you near it again." LIghtning warned in the most serious tone that Tiffany had ever heard next to her Father's. Tiffany scoffed and went on. LEaving the cone office. Lighting glanced at the files. Nothing missing, but that was very odd...
Leon walked up to Lightning in the pits. Looking at the new pit crew LIghtning had. "Nice setup." Leon complimented. Lightning turned around and smiled, "Leon! Thanks for coming out." "Of course. I was glad to hear that you wanted me back permanently." "Yeah, well thanks for agreeing to come back. Sorry about before. I know you didn't do it." "It's alright. I would have done the same." He assured. Lightning then motioned for him to follow saying, "Come on, I'll introduce you to the crew." Walking over and pointing as he named them, "Jeff, Gary, Hank, Hal, Karl, Levi, Mickey, Johnston, Fink, and Wells." Leon nodded, "Nice to meet you all. Which one of you is the spotter?" Karl stepped up. "Good. I want to make sure you and I can understand each other up there. Got it?" Leon asked. Karl nodded with a smile.
"Racers, to your cars please." Said the speakers. Lightning sighed and grabbed his helmet from the top of the toolbox. "Better get ready." He exclaimed. Leon smiled with, "YOu got this, McQueen."...
Lightning smiled for the cameras. Take first again. He seemed to be doing great again after getting a team together. After his time in the spotlight, Lightning made his way to his trailer. Taking the neck of his suit and loosening it up. He was all greasy and sweaty from today's race. "Man, what a race!" Complimented Bobby as he appeared. Lightning smiled replying, "Sure was. I love it when we have a good and clean race." Bobby chuckled and agreed. Lightning then asked, "Where was Cal today?" Their friend's absence from a race for no apparent reason was odd. Bobby shrugged answering, "No clue. My guess is something to do with his medications. They get to him sometimes." "Maybe.. But Cal usually lets us know when something's up." "True... I'll call him," Bobby announced and stepped aside, grabbing his phone out.
Lightning walked into his trailer and saw a gift basket of wine and fruit with a card next to it. Lightning walked over and picked up the card. It read, O'Reilly. Lightning hesitated opening it but went ahead.
Thanks for working with my daughter. Gonna send her back home with you this week! Here's half the other check.
Lightning sighed and saw the check. It was such a large number that it was hard to say no. But he felt bad. Being bought like this. It was sort of wrong. He knew that deep down. BObby then barged in and announced, "It's Meg. Something isn't right with the baby." Lightning's eyes widened. Cal and Meg's baby? What could possibly be wrong?...
Cal stared at his wife who was crying into her own Mother's arms. Meg was falling apart before him. Strip walked over to his nephew and placed a hand on his shoulder. Cal's eyes filled with tears as guilt overflowed inside him. Strip pulled his nephew in close. Holding him as he broke apart. Crying it out into his Uncle's arms. Strip hated this. Hated that Cal and Meg had to go through this. Especially Cal. Cal had been through such hell. The kid didn't deserve this. Cal's phone began to ring. Cal pulled away from his uncle, wiping his eyes and pulling out his phone.
Lightning.
He sighed and wiped his eyes once more before calming down enough to answer. "Hello?.."
Hey, what's going on? Bobby said it's something to do with Meg and the baby...
Cal immediately began to cry. Honestly, Lightning was silent and lost. Cal was on the other end of the phone, falling apart. "Where are you?.." Lightning asked.
Cal sniffled answering, Home. North Carolina..
Lightning sighed then asked, "Would you like Sally and me to come?"
Cal was sobbing. Breaking and trying to breathe through heartbreak.
"Cal?..."
Suddenly Strip answered, "Hey, Light. Cal is just having a hard time speaking right now."
Sally and I can come up there.
Strip looked at his nephew and asked if Cal wanted them up. Cal wiped his eyes and shrugged but nodded. SO str answered, "Yeah, come on up, kid. I think these two could use ya'll right now."
Lightning hung up. Bobby looked at Lightning with a face that read sympathy and worry. For Cal. They never had to see one of them in this state before. It was different and it didn't feel good at all. It made all their small problems look like blessings through this...
Lightning walked into his home. Closing the door and sighing. Sally walked up and greeted with a smile, "Hey, Stickers." But before she could ask about the race, his face caught her attention. Something was wrong. "Stickers?..." She mumbled. "What is it?" She asked. Lightning stared at Sally a moment before ordering, "Pack your bags. I'll have someone watch over the motels." "What? What's wrong?.. You are scaring me.." She admitted Lightning nodded and explained, "It's Meg. Something is wrong with the baby." Sally's eyes widened. Immediately asking, "Did she?... Did... Did she lose it?" Lightning shrugged answering, "I don't know." "Well is she okay? Not mentally but physically? Is Meg at risk?" "I don't know." "What about Cal? What did he say? Did he tell you?" "NO! I don't know! Cal wouldn't stop crying!" Lightning yelled in a stressful state!
Sally stared. Her jaw hung slightly. Cal.. Poor Cal and poor Meg. "I'll go pack..." Sally whispered then scurried off. Her head was dizzy as she worried the worse. It hurt to breathe, it hurt to swallow, her heart raced. She felt sick inside but she would never puke. A little faint-like as well. She was scared for her friend. What if Meg had to endure the thing Sally did.. But the difference was, Meg and Cal wanted this and wanted this together... As an actual family...
