Promise (Power Rangers Time Force Lucas)

8

After finishing up her test, Sam waited outside the building for Wes to show up. She saw the familiar car stop right up front. She walked over and hopped into the passenger seat. "No motorcycle today I see." She said.

"Not today. Im gonna go check on the others. Want to come?" Wes asked.

"Anything to stay out of that mansion. I don't want to be near him." Sofia groaned.

"Neither do I."

He drove off and not long after they reached the giant clock tower and honked at the friends. Wes stopped the car, but Sam jumped out before before he could put it into park. "Hey!" Wes greeted. "Now this is looking great." He complemented.

"Thanks."

Sam reached into the car to grab her bags, but she quickly realized Lucas behind her. "Admiring the car?" She asked.

"Maybe a little bit." He said.

Sam smiled at the boy before walking over to the others. They all watched him walk around the car. "He really likes it." Sam said.

Lucas opened the door and sat the the drivers seat. Wes walked over to the other side of the car. "Pretty cool, huh? It's the latest model. How's you like to take it for a spin?" We asked.

"Really?" Lucas asked, the biggest grin plastered over his face.

"Sure." Wes opened the door and sat in the passenger seat. There he began teaching Lucas how to drive the car and use the different gears.

"Hey, Wes doesn't know that Lucas is a championship race car driver, does he?" Trio asked.

"No, but I bet he's about to find out." Katie grinned.

"Wait, really?" Sam asked.

"Yup." Jen asked. "Him driving that car is going to be a piece of cake."

And in a matter of seconds, the car suddenly sped off, leaving tire streaks on the road. "They're going to get pulled over." Sam laughed.

Neither of them were able to stop laughing. "Did you see Wes' face?" Trip laughed. "It was priceless."

"I've never seen him look so scared." Katie giggled.

Not long after, the two came back, both with a frown plastered over them. "Guessing something went wrong?" Sofia asked with a smirk, her hands in her pockets.

"Lucas got his first ticket." Wes said, waving the paper up in the air.

"Don't show them." Lucas stole the paper away from him. "I need to get my license."

Sam walked over and patted his shoulder. "You poor thing. I'm sure Wes could help you out with that." She assured.

"Yeah, it'll be no problem. With my help, you'll pass that test with flying colors." Wes wrapped his arm around the boys shoulder.

"I hope so." Lucas sighed.

"I'm going to be upstairs studying. If you need me, you know where I'll be at." Sam's waved off.

While studying over at the table, she couldn't help but to ever hear the Wes helping out Lucas. The place was so quiet you could hear it felt loud, even over the music she was listening to.

"This is lame. I'm a world champion race car driver." Lucas complained.

"In a thousand years. Until then, no license, no driving." Wes said. He looked down at the time on his watch and sighed. "I have to meet my dad. I'll be back to help you more later. For now, keep studying. But take a break every once in a while." Wes said.
