--------------------------------------------------------------

-Sayuki. So. This is how it started. Remember Project D right?
-Of course I do.
-Well,there was a Fake Project D. They were impostors-..
-Oh yeah I've also heard about them. Bastards!"They copied my lovely Takumi,huh?"thinks Sayuki to herself.
-Yeah. You see,they got me into a problem. My impostor was with a girl and did bad things to her. Then that girl's best friend came to the gas station I was working at and slapped me because she thought I was the impostor.
-Excuse me. She did WHAT? She SLAPPED you?
-It doesn't matter now. But guess what. She is the girl I got into a relationship with. I don't know how but we did. She wants to be a professional golf player. She left for Tokyo to be a pro player and she had to leave me. We've had a really good thing but you see,before she made the announcement we went to the beach. We were really in love. We even did it in the car. Oh! I'm s-sorry! I didn't mean to tell that out loud!!
-It's alright Takumi,I don't mind..But AAAWWWEEEE that was really cute and I feel so bad...Can I help you recover?
-Guess you could. But how?
-Leave that to me when I get out of here,Takumi.
-I'm not in the mood for a relationship tho. And you're older than me. I don't know if it would even work out with a girl older than me.
-I didn't mean that...But umm since you mentioned a relationship..Is it wrong if I'm 3 years older than you? You wouldn't want me because of that? That kind of upset me,Takumi. Did you mean to hurt me with that?
-I'm sorry Sayuki..But I just don't want a relationship and I can't really like a girl older than me..I'm so-
Sayuki starts sobbing. She is really upset with that.
-S-Sayuki,are you okay? I didn't mean to-
-COME ON TAKUMI! CAN'T YOU SEE? shouts Sayuki immediately before crying.
Takumi feels really bad. He really didn't mean to make her emotional and all .
-Why are you so cold with me,Takumi? Why do you reject me? Why? I've never loved a man this much before!
Takumi says nothing as his heart starts to shrink. He is in pain that he caused this. He doesn't like Sayuki's tears so he goes next to her bed,sits on his knee and comforts Sayuki with his hand,rubbing her soft,blushed cheek. She looks at him with her big watery eyes. Takumi wipes her tears away.
-Sayuki,c-ca-can I ask you s-something?
-Go..-on*sob*..te-tell me.
-Can you be my gi-girlfriend please?
Sayuki doesn't say anything. She tries to hold her tears.
-A-are you serious?
-Ye-Yes. I guess I am.
-YES!!! I WILL be your girlfriend Takumi!! says Sayuki as she bursts her happiness while hugging her new loved one.
-But there are two conditions.
-YES!! Tell me! I'm listening!
-Number one: Please don't be clingy just yet, I still can't be that way for some time.
-Okayy I understand. And number two?
-I'll tell you the number two on our date.
-So it's a date,not a meeting.
-A date.
-Takumi I have to promise you something!
-If you have to promise me something then I also will.
-I'll go first. I promise I will stay loyal to you and I'll never leave you,no matter the circumstances.
-Then I don't have to say my promise as you already said mine.
-Ta-Takumi-kun...Do you really want this to last forever?
-Mostly. Hold my hand please.
Takumi grabs his new girlfriend's hand. He looks her into her shiny brown eyes. He can tell Sayuki is going to keep her promise by the look she gives him.
-I have to thank you. Thank you for giving me support after being left. I know your promise is real.
-Don't thank me! But how?
-Eyes never lie. They are the gate to the soul,and your gate is brown,big and beautiful.
She blushes ,rearranging her long brown hair.
-Sayuki-chan...You got me twice..First time by a kiss and second time by that sarcastic question.
-Yeah,I guess I did!answers his girl smiling.
-You know what I'm gonna do about it,right?
-Huh? What do you me-...
Takumi gives her a kiss but Sayuki didn't say her "Oh" before being kissed,so she said it now but it came out as a moan.
-Hey. I'm gonna leave. It's late. You need rest.
-Pl-please Takumi! Don't leave yet! There's one more thing...
-Hm? I'm listening.
-Takumi,I promise you our relationship will last longer than anything you had before. I promise to you!!
-Thank you for promising me,Sayuki. I do appreciate that,says Takumi while winking at her on his way out.
-Sleep well,my love!!
-Same to you. You do need some good rest. Goodnight,my girl.
Sayuki can't get him off her mind. After 1 year of trying and trying,she's finally with the man of her dreams! The fastest racer in Northern Kanto region and the driver of The Eight Six of Akina.
Takumi can't believe he's got a girlfriend so fast. It doesn't seem right but he has to move on. He can't stay single after all. At least he's not like Natsuki,having 2 men at the same time.
"Sayuki must be the right one..She's wanted me for so long. It can't be for nothing. She must really love me I guess",thought Takumi while exiting the hospital.
-Let's see,how do I get home..Oh,Itsuki. I should ask him if he can pick me up. Takumi calls his friend. He picks up in no time
-Evening,Takumi! What's poppin'?
-Hey. Uhh,can you pick me up from the hospital please?
-The hospital? Why are you there?
-Ummm, I went back there to visit a family friend..
-Oh,oki. I'm coming.
-Yeah? Thank you Itsuki. I'm waiting.
Takumi hangs up. A thought comes to his mind.
Will Sayuki agree to share the Soarer ? If she will,he has to take her as his navigator. That would build a really strong relationship.
-I want that,says Takumi out loud. I really do....Oh wait..Crap!  I have a delivery this morning! I totally forgot..I have to rest.
I will introduce Sayuki to dad if the project goes out well. That's the proof she is worth showing her to my dad. I don't know why but I really think she should meet him.
*15 minutes pass by*
-There's Itsuki.
The Eight-Five driver picks Takumi up happily.
-Soo,Takumi! How are you lately?
-Oh I'm pretty good myself. How about you?
-I'm feeling veeery good! I'm meeting with Kazumi tomorrow. She will be released from the hospital and later that day we will have a cruise in my car.
-Sounds like a good plan. Did you see Iketani and Mako tho? They seem like liking each other again. Do you know anything about it?
-Nopee. I haven't heard anything.
-Hmph. Anyway,how's the eight five driving?
-Ooooh good question! I love it very much. I'm starting to learn how to properly drift!
-That's great. Can we hurry up a bit? I'm tired and I need to be back home soon.
-Yes!says Itsuki while speeding a bit.
Takumi can't wait to tell Sayuki about his plan. He can't wait about the date to be clear. He better keep it secret,their relationship.
A black car is approaching. Takumi sees it. Something is suspicious.
-Hey Itsuki,do you see that guy behind us?
-Yeah..Think it's a Nissan.
As Takumi looks behind he can now tell who it is. It's Nakazato. He suddenly overtakes and blasts away.
-That fella...I don't like him..
-What do you mean?
-That was Nakazato's R32. I was saying I don't like the guy.
-Ohh I see. I don't like him either.
Itsuki continues to drive calmly. He eventually gets Takumi home soon.
-Alright ,we are here Takumi. Goodnight,see ya!
-Night! Thank you again.
Itsuki drives back home.
-Dad,I'm back home.
-I've been wondering where have you been all day. Guess it's the young man's life.
-Right. I'm going to sleep dad. I've got a delivery this morning,yeah?
-Mhm. Take some rest.
Takumi lays in bed with his mind full of images of Sayuki and her beautiful face.
-I'm a lucky man to have her. Goodnight,Sayuki.
Sleep well. I'll dream of you.
~At the hospital~
-My Takumi...I'm looking at the stars,hoping you could hug me from behind and join me in enjoying in this view..Oh,my love. This is the time we fell in love..This is how it has finally began. Late in the morning,or early in the evening,my lonely soul was roaming on streets at night. Now I have another soul to roam with. And it's the best I could have asked for.
Anyway...I promise to you, Takumi-kun,I won't be an actor in our love. I'm gonna write journals and poems about us two and our love..Our life,seen through pink coloured glasses..Just the two of us..All I want is to spend some time with you, Takumi. My man. I love you. Goodnight.
~At Fujiwara Tofu Shop~
-I can't sleep..It's weird,whispers to himself Takumi. Is it...because of Sayuki? Am I so in love with her?...But I've barely seen her lately!.I can't fathom why.. But one thing is for sure. She's so pretty. I'm already having fantasies seeing her..A cold autumn evening,next to the sea..Seeing her sit on my eight six's hood..The wind blowing in the air her hair..the hair that I adore. Having the aroma of her perfume on my clothes,looking her into the eyes..Oh my,Sayuki. Look what you did. I can't get you out of my mind..My babygirl. I love you,even we are togheter only for like 2 hours.. Goodnight..I promise we will see each other as soon as I can.
