Full moon sitting in the darkest night.
"So, sounds fun, right?"
"Huh? Yeah, sure."
You kinda just agreed to whatever Mai said, busy doing your makeup and humming to the music playing from your speaker. But it wasn't until a few hours later that you realized what you'd agreed to. You both were sitting outside now, waiting for Yuuji to pick you up, but he was ten minutes late. When he did pull up, he parked fast, seeing Mai's already irritated expression. Hesitantly, he walked over to where you both stood.
"Heyyyyy..."
Mai pushed past him, brushing off his attempt at a hug.
"Save it, bitch."
Yuuji ran before her, opening the door, which she thanked him for in the form of a sneer. He looked at you next, hoping for a more positive reaction as he guided you to the backseat.
"Are you mad at me too?"
"If I were, it would be in good reason. You're late."
He closed the door behind you and scrambled to the driver's seat, promptly turning on the car and attempting to show he was in a rush.
"Look, I'm sorry, I ended up-"
"Just drive, Yuuji!"
Mai wasn't giving him a break; not like he deserved one. He huffed and put the car in drive, taking off. You guys were going to a car meet; Yuuji was excited to show off the car he'd just finished modding, a WRX or something like that. To be honest, you didn't know too much about cars, except what Yuuji would tell you, but that would involve you paying attention. Nonetheless, you wanted to be a supportive friend, so here you were.
Feel a breeze, smoking trees, cloudy in the ride.
Yuuji pulled up to a lot full of cars, parking in an empty spot towards the middle of the row. You noticed some cars in an intersection next to the lot, driving in circles as people hung out the windows. You weren't gonna lie; it looked a little fun, dangerous, but fun. Yuuji got out, opening each of your doors.
"So, I'll probably stay here if anyone asks questions about my ride, but feel free to check things out!"
"You brought us here so we could frolic around? Yuuji, you've gotta be shittin' me right now."
"Now, don't say it like that. It makes me sound like an asshole."
The both of you looked at him with a deadpan expression, but then he gave those puppy dog eyes, causing Mai to rub down her face.
"Fine, but you owe us big time. Let's go see what they're doing in the circle over there."
With that, you and Mai walked off. Yuuji told you to stay safe, but Mai's reply was a middle finger. The air was smoky and smelled like burnt rubber, but you guys still pushed through the crowd to see the action. Cars were drifting in a circle now, another car coming in the rotation, probably the most dangerous thing you've ever seen.
