I went straight to Danny's after that. His mom looked at me and I said: "Where's Paul?" She looked at me and said: "He just left to your house. With Danny."
"Oh. Well it was nice seeing you. I have to go now since I have company I didn't know about."
"Bye autumn stop by for dinner!"
"Okay." I got back in my car and drove home. Okay so I have a '69 mustang and its old. So when it didn't start I got pissed. First off Shelby was at my house still second off the boys are most likely there now. I got out popped the hood and took a look. It was over heated was all. So now I would have to wait. After 5 minutes of waiting I started it and it came to life so I sped over to my house just for the thing to die in the drive way. Ugh. The joys of having a sweet car. I ran inside to where everyone was to find Shelby laughing with Paul and Danny.
"Someone please fill me in." I said. Shelby looked at me and said:
"Danny's phone died right before Paul said we should hang out so all I heard was we should."
"Oh. Okay." I looked at them then turned around to work on my car. They all followed. First I started with kicking it. Then I popped the hood and went ahead and changed the oil and checked to see if it had plenty of water and it didn't so I fixed that. Then there was the belt. It had broke. So I called my uncle and he said he'd bring me one. Well I had forgotten Danny and Shelby and Paul were there. They stood there looking amazed.
"My uncles coming over to bring me a new belt. Warning he's overprotective and kind of harsh."
Shelby looked at me and said: "You can fix a car?"
"Family genes. I got it good." Everyone laughed. My uncle lives in the house next door so he walked over and handed it to me and said: "Show me what you can do princess." He's the one who taught me how to fix anything with a motor. I stopped before I started and said:
"Uncle Jay, this is Shelby, Paul, and my boyfriend, Danny. Guys this is my uncle Jay." They looked at him and said nice to meet you but Danny and Paul stepped forward to shake my uncles hand. My uncle seemed pleased. My uncle walked up to Shelby to shake her hand. He looked at everyone and said: "You can call me uncle Jay. Nice to meet y'all." I got to work on the belt while Danny and my uncle talked. I tuned most of it out. Shelby and Paul were playing with chalk on the driveway. I touched hot grease on accident and said ow pretty loudly. My uncle said: "The grease is hot down there kiddo, be careful."
I said: "Yeah, yeah whatever." Yeah I was thinking what ever until the belt came back and slapped me in the face that time I cursed under my breath and got up and started laughing because I hit my head on the motor. So I slid out laughing and said ouch. My uncle looked at me and took over. While Danny inspected my head where blood was trickling down.
"I'm fine." I said.
"You're bleeding." He said.
"Oh no call a doctor."
"Let's go bandage your head up. Clumsy girl." I groaned and followed him. When we came back out and my uncle was revving up the engine. It sounded better.
"Sounds good!" I yelled at him.
"It is!" He said. He stopped the engine and came up to me. "Let me do the paint job for you. It'll be cool."
"Okay. Why do you want to do it?"
"To add it on my profile for the shop I'm trying to buy."
"Oh yeah. Okay have fun. Want help?"
"Yeah. All of you actually." Everyone came up and agreed.
"I'm doing a study to see what happens when you take teenagers and bring art to them. If the results are good or bad." We all looked at him and Danny said I'm in then Paul and Shelby and me. Yay artsy fun! Except the fact that I can't draw.
