My heart is hammering. My hands are shaking as I open my car door and my legs are wobbling like they're about to give out as I step outside of my beast. I've never felt like this before after a race. Yes, my adrenaline has always sky rocketed and my heart was always in my throat after coming down from the speed and the high but not like this. Never like this. I take a few calming breaths holding onto my car door to steady myself as I watch the immense amount of people swarm down onto the pavement.

They want to know who won. They want to congratulate the winner and so do I. I've always paid attention to my opponent. Always kept an eye on where they were on the track and how much of an advance I'd have on them because as cocky as it sounds, I've never lost. But today, like with all things when it comes to Skye Davis, I wasn't paying attention to anything else but that damn finish line. My eyes were focused forward and I was so confident that I was going to win. That I did win, until I turned and saw her right next to me when we crossed that solid white line. I needed to win. I needed to start fresh with her. Prove to her that this was our chance to start a new, start over but as I glance over at her getting out of her GTO I'm scared that I just lost everything I had planned. Everything that I wanted.

I swallow down my nerves and slam my door shut, rolling my shoulders back and heading toward Niko and the rest of my crew. They're standing in a circle talking to the announcer who sits in the box above the bleachers to keep an eye on everything. He knows who won and I'm eager to hear.

Skye comes into my periphery and I instinctively slow my pace so she can reach me. Folding my arms over my chest to make it seem like I'm calm and collected I say, "Nice race."

She stops walking and I do the same. Turning toward me she pops a hip before crossing her arms over her chest pushing those delicious tits up and it takes everything in me not to stare at them. My dick twitches behind my zipper begging me to get inside her and I bite down on my lip thinking about how her soft skin felt against my tongue. A sly smirk twitches at my lips as I remember the erotic sounds she made when my tongue ring flicked against her stiff pink nipples.

My gaze travels over her over slowly starting from her feet, gliding over those toned legs, past that delicate, delicious hidden pussy all the way up until I reach her lips. I zero in on them for a moment watching as Skye's tongue peeks out to wet her bottom lip and I swallow down a grown at the moisture it left there. My eyes flicker up to her aqua blues when she clears her throat.

I smile making her shake her head and look down for a split second almost as if she's shy. But I know better, my girls not shy. When she looks back at me her eyes are blazing with heat and I take a small step forward on instinct.

Niko comes over at that moment causing us to break eye contact. He claps his hands. "So, before I tell you guys who the winner is do you want to hear the bets or would you rather find out after the winner is announced?"

I think on it for a second. Shit, what do I want to do? The second Skye whispered her bet into Niko's ear my brain has been running through all different types of scenarios based on his reaction and it's been eating at me. I know what I want and I made damn sure that she agreed that the loser had to follow through because if I had asked any other way she probably would have shut me down flat.

My eyes dart to Skye's and I watch as I see the cogs turn in her head. She's debating the same way I am. I take a quick glance around and notice that we have about three hundred people all huddled together to see what the verdict is going to be. Fuck. I don't need them hearing what our bets will be. That she is private. I don't want to hide her or us but I also don't need people's comments or advice.

My mouth opens as soon as those thoughts pass through me. "Tell us who won we can go over the bets privately." I make a show with my eyes around everyone else and Skye seems to understand because she nods in agreement.

Niko shrugs with a smug grin on his face. "Alright. After careful deliberation and multiple witnesses it's come to the conclusion that the winner is....," he pauses for dramatic effect and I want to punch him in the throat, "Both of you." He smiles as his eyes dance between us.

The second he says the words I turn coming face to face with the brightest pair of blue eyes. My eyes are wide, as are hers as we stare at each other in disbelief. Skye shakes her head. "I'm sorry, can you repeat that because I must have heard you wrong."

Niko laughs over the groans of the audience around us. They're not pleased. Yeah, well neither are we, assholes! "You guys tied. Trust me. We all saw it," he gestures to himself, Shane, Reese and Lila, "and so did the announcer. You tied."

"No way," I say a little too loudly. "Someone must have crossed a hair before the other."

Lila walks in front of Niko who doesn't hide the fact that he stares approvingly at her ass before looking back at us. "Trust me, if there was even a slight chance that my girl kicked your ass I would be screaming it from the roof tops. And if you had happened to beat her I would have been beyond angry, but it's true." She looks straight at Skye as she walks over to her. "You guys tied."

Skye whips her head to me and we stare at each other for what feels like an eternity before she asks, "So what does that mean for the bets?"

Niko responds. "Well, since you both won you have a choice I guess. You can either forget the bets completely or you can both follow through. Either way it has to be an even call."

"Unless you do a tie breaker!" Shane yells from behind Niko, his arm around some red head from gym class.

"Another race?" I ask, my hand coming up to scratch my stubble. Do I want to put that up to chance again though? She's already proven she's beyond skilled behind the wheel and I could have lost. I glance back over to Skye who's got her eyebrow raised in question.

"I mean...it can literally be anything." Shane says walking closer to join our little party.

Skye's blues flit to me before her lips turn up at the corners. She walks seductively over to me and my dick stands to attention. My eyes follow her every move until she's in front of me.

"I think I want to hear what your bet was first before I agree to a tie breaker. What do you say?"

"Is that allowed? Shane complains looking at Niko for answers. My eyes remain on the glistening blues staring up at me. I see Niko shrug in the corner of my eye. "Yeah. Sure. They can hear what the other one wants before making a decision for a tie breaker. But..." he holds up his hand getting our attention. When we swerve our heads to look at him my best friend smirks, "you guys have to come up with completely new bets for the tie breaker. And it has to be something better than what you already told me." I roll my eyes and Skye laughs.

"Alright, Niko, we'll let you know."

My eyes flick back down to Skye. "Yeah. Just give us a few, alright?"

I hear Niko and Lila laugh in the distance as they watch us stare at one another. I smile before grabbing Skye's hand. "Come on."

"Where are we going?"

"To get some privacy." I throw my keys over my shoulder to Niko. He's the only one I trust with my car, before heading toward Skye's GTO. I throw my hand on the passenger side door and wait for her to unlock it. She raises her eyebrow at me and I roll my eyes in return. "Come on, I'll tell you where to go." Letting out a huff she unlocks the door and we both slide in.

The second my seat belts on and she starts the engine I let out a small laugh. Skye turns to look at me, confusion written all over her face. "What?"

"Nothing," I shake my head, "I'm just so fucking curious as to what it is that you want."

She gives me a devilish smirk before peeling out of the racetrack.
