Dark Secrets

Chapter 6

So this is a really long chapter. I couldn't find any decent way to end it so it just ended up being really long, but I guess you don't mind? I'm I right? Annnnyway, I hope you enjoy reading it as much as I enjoyed writing it! Looove you all! :D

I woke up to the smell of bacon filling my nose. I hadn't eaten bacon in such a long time and I really missed it. I stood up still wearing my sweatpants and the thin sweater. I liked these kinds of clothes. I walked downstairs and into the kitchen. Tate was standing by the stove making breakfast. He looks over at me and smiles "good you're up! We'll be heading out of town after breakfast if that’s ok with you. I want to take you somewhere" I just looked down and walked over to the table and sat down on the first chair. "Sure… no problem" I wasn't really in the mood for anything and I don't really know why. Maybe because Tate told me I was beautiful yesterday. Many of you would take that as a compliment, but I don't because I know as well as everyone else around me that I'm not so they can just quit lying. We ate in silence and when we were both finished Tate finally broke the silence "Do you need to stop at home to get some clean clothes?" I looked down at myself "Nah… I'm good" he smiled, stood up and started cleaning the table.

15 minutes later we were in his car. "Where are we going?" I asked as he backed out of the driveway. "Race". Race? What the hell did he mean by that? "What? What kind of racing?" I was curious. What the hell was he dragging me into? "Street racing" he answered with a calm voice. My heartbeat rose "Isn't that…like-" I didn't get to finish my sentence "Illegal?" I just nodded. He didn't look at me he just threw the car around and drove off before I got to change my mind. "Yes, yes it is" He said still perfectly calm. There was another silence before he suddenly asked "are you scared?" the question got me off board. I tried to read my own feelings. I wasn't scared… I think.

"Are you going to race? Am I going to be in the car, and which car?" I started to rant. I was about to open my mouth again, but he stopped me by putting one hand over my mouth "Easy tiger! Yes, no and my other car" I just looked out of the front window as he removed his hand and put it back on the wheel. We were about to do something illegal. I always imagined this to be fun-doing something illegal, but it is scary.

After about an hour of silence we drove into a new city. I didn't recognize it and I hadn't been paying much attention to where we drove. "Where are we?" Just as I asked he drove into this street. It was filled with cars on each side and there were people everywhere.  All the girls that I could see were dressed in miniskirts and a top that barely covered their boobs. Trust me, even if I liked girls I wouldn't like that… It was awful to look at. Tate backed the car up next to another one at the end of the long line with cars and it only took a second before the car was surrounded with people.

"Hey Tate! Who is the girl?" I heard someone say. I stepped out of the car and I could hear people whistle. Tate looked at me over the car. He smiled I gave him a fake one back. I couldn't exactly get away from here. I guess it will be more fun later? "Tate!" I shouted as he started to walk into the crowd. He stopped and reached his hand out for me. I didn't take it I just walked pass him. He put an arm over my shoulder and whispered in my ear "Just relax baby, this will be fun I promise". I ignored him and just concentrated on the people surrounding me and all the cars.

We were nearly at the end of the long line of cars when I spotted one that I really liked. It was a Nissan of some sort. I was standing about 30 meters away from the car. The hood was up and a guy I didn't recognize was standing bend over fixing something under the hood. The car was silver with blue stripes on the sides. All windows except the front window were totally black. Even the one in the front was a little bit blacker than a normal window. I totally fell in love with this car and I wanted to know who owned it, but before I could ask anyone Tate dragged me over to this orange car. I kind of liked it but the Nissan was still cooler. This was a Toyota. If I'd gotten my facts right it was a Toyota Supra. "Oh my baby! I've missed you!" Tate said stroking his hand along the hood and over to the door to the driver seat. "Is this your car Tate?" I asked shocked. How the hell did he afford all of these pretty cars? "Yes. I use this one for racing" he said posing next to the car. I was just about to ask him some more about the car, but one name caught my attention.
