"Life is a matter of courtship and wooing, flirting and chatting."

"Earth?" Mix spoke up, he was sitting in the passenger seat of his own car, enjoying a peaceful ride home and listening to Earth humming to the tune of Purple Rain sounding from the radio.

He had no idea what got into him to let Earth drive his car. Mix never allows other people to drive his car, ever!

But Earth wasn't other people. Earth was Earth. What did that even mean? Heck, Mix would also like to know. He just felt like he could share everything with Earth without being afraid that one day Earth would just disappear without a trace, taking with himself all he was given.

It was a nice feeling to have someone like that in your life. If only Earth trusted Mix enough to tell him who he really was.

"Huh?" Earth responded, keeping his eyes on the road.

"Um, next week is the Midnight Race."

"Yeah...I know. Why? Is there something wrong?" Earth asked, confused by Mix's tone of voice.

"Not really. It's just that I want you to ride that race with me."

"Of course, I'll ride with you. We are racing partners." Earth said matter of factly.

"Yeah, but I mean in my car," Mix said, waiting for Earth's reaction.

"I see...you mean, we both will be in your car. I won't race." Earth nodded his head.

"Uhm, are you mad?"

"No, Mix, why would I be mad?... I'm not saying I wasn't looking forward to racing again, but sitting in the car, watching you in action sounds even better." Earth said, flashing Mix a wide smile.

Mix smiled too, "you are not serious."

"I am very serious. You look sexy when you drive." Earth said, casually looking at the road ahead of him.

Mix almost choked on invisible water, "are you, are you flirting again?"

"Maybe," Earth winked.

.....

D-Day.

The Midnight Race was in less than two hours. Earth's first Midnight Race and he was going to see Mix winning it, again. Except, this time it wasn't going to be from the roof of some random building. This time Earth was going to be close, so close, that he would be able to not only see but also live the Midnight Race.

Midnight Race was also the best time to try and find something more about Jack's illegal activities. During this night, everything was hectic, and everyone was busy with the race. Great time for some snooping around and spying on some people.
