Untouchable

A race

"Fuck" I mumble looking at Juliet in panic. "Is it completely dead?" She asks me, the same panic displayed in her face.

I nod, covering my face in my hands in utter embarrassment. I loan someone's car once, and then it breaks down in the middle of no where.

"We should probably call Lewis.." Juliet tells me, a slight smile wiped over her lips, I know she slightly enjoys seeing me panic like this.

"He gonna kill meee" I groan, pulling out my phone even though I'm horrified of Lewis' reaction.

How do you tell someone that their crazy expensive sports car broke down in some random parking lot an hours drive away from them...?

"Hey.." I mumble through the phone, as Lewis picks it up. "Oh god Evelyn, what did you do?" He immediately responds with a chuckle.

Fuck, I was hoping it would take him longer to figure me out.

"Look uhm... we're in some random parking lot, and the car may or may not be able to start right now.." I admit, crossing my fingers that he won't kill me.

A sigh leaves Lewis' mouth, but then he laughs. I exclaim a relieved sigh, at least he isn't mad.

"God Evelyn.." He responds, laughing as he says it. I stay silent, trying to hold in my laughter.

"Well, I guess I'll find a way to get to you guys, I'm quite sure I can fix whatever problem there is" He tells me, before hanging up on the phone. In my whole life, I've never been this relieved.

I quickly call my dad, telling him me and Juliet went for a drive together, leaving out any further information.

After an hour of waiting, a rain storm now filling the air, the roar from a sports car, startles us both. We both turn our heads, looking over to the bigger road.

As soon as I see him, my cheeks warm up.

Charles is driving the car, his hand tightly gripping the steering wheel. Lewis is sitting next to him in the passenger seat, looking quite uncomfortable to be in the hands of Charles.

They pull into the parking lot, a little smile plastered onto Charles' lips. The rain is pouring down, the sound of the drops filling the car.

They both step out of the car, and we decide to do the same, all 4 of us getting stuck in the extreme rain.

"I had to get some assistance!" Lewis says with a smile, pointing over to Charles. I can't help but smile at Charles, his presence alone does something to me.

I quickly hug Lewis, apologizing about five hundred times for the car. I move over to hug Charles, but it feels so different compared to hugging Lewis.

Even if it's only for a brief moment, when his arms wrap around me and I can smell his cologne, I'm reminded of our kiss, the way he makes me feel.

"I'm glad I finally found an excuse to see you again.." He whispers into my ear as we hug, his voice sending shivers down my spine. As usual, my cheeks are flushed red.

Within seconds of standing outside, we're all completely drenched. "I should probably look at this bad boy.." Lewis mumbles, getting into his car.

He tries starting the car, but the car makes the same sound it did when I tried. Fortunately after looking at a couple of things, and changing a couple of things, Lewis finally got the car to start.

By the little smirk that grows on Charles' lips, I can tell he's gotten some idea...

"Do you wanna race?" Charles suddenly asks Lewis, after he'd finally turned on the engine. Lewis stays silent for a bit, but a smile slowly grows on his face.
