When I reach to the race, I see all my biker friends.
This is a place where we people who earn money earn it this way by racing, the two people who are racing against each other bid a certain amount of money and then the winner receives it all. I win most of the time but lose rarely.

I know I'm an expert.

Suddenly while I'm walking I notice Jake. Not alone with Jason and Jackson. Shit , since when do they come here.
Most of them who come here are gangsters.
Does it mean that the J's are as well. Could they be the people I'm searching for or worst could he be the one I'm searching for.

No that can't be Jake can not be in a gang or worst the killer.

I am snapped off my thoughts when someone taps on my shoulder.
I turn to see Dave, he again.

"Oh hola, you again so I see that you do motorbike races as well. Pretty sexy huh. Wanna race."

"Wanna bet you will lose." I say
And then we are interrupted by Jake.

"Wanna bet that you both will lose." He speaks with a stupid smirk on his face.

"Wanna bet I will kick your ass." Says Dave in a stern tone.

Ok now too many bets.
" Ok guys stop so for how much, 10,000 dollars?"

Dave shakes his head and glares at Jack " no 50,000 dollars, to kick his ass."

I look at Dave " can I please speak to Jake for a minute , till then you arrange the race."

"Sure baby, happily ."

"I am not your baby." I yell while he leaves.

Jake looks at me angrily." Care to explain."

"What, I just do racing here, whats the big deal Hammer. And why are you here"

"Is he your boyfriend?" He asks while tightening his fist.

"Ex" I reply.

"Look this race is between me and Dave, I don't want you to get involved in this."

"Excuse me, I was the one who decided to compete with him not you, you were the one who had to butt in." I say while rolling my eyes.

"Fine then don't cry when you lose by Jake." Says Jason from behind with a smirk.

"Oh, nice to meet you too Jason and Jackson." I reply while turning in the changing rooms to wear my uniform.

After wearing my black and blue outfit I put on my helmet. Ready for the race. Ready to kick Dave and ready to kill Jakes ego.

When I reach they both are already seated in there bikes I run and sit in my bike as well. The host speaks.

"Ready!"

Everybody cheers in response. While we tighten our grip on the motorbike.

"And 1....

2....

3...

Go!"

We three start driving furiously towards the finish line.

Currently Dave is first followed by me and Jake.

I try my best and somehow manage to come in front of the both.

We go through a tunnel which is only 1km away from the finish line.

I glance back through the rare view mirror and see I am followed by Dave but no sign of Jake. I guess we left him behind.

And voila! I win!

I come out of my bike and remove the helmet when I see Dave coming towards me. I quickly turn away in search of finding Jake.

When I reach the audience I see there is a big crowd. I push my self inside the crowd and see A injured Jake sitting on a stool accompanied by Jason and Jackson.

I run toward him and ask.
"What happened!?"
Jason immediately turns his head towards me and speaks.
" while you managed to take the first position ,Dave drove in such a way that he collided with Jake and made him fall off his bike."

That jerk.

"Hey red,glad you won." He says in pain.

I hugged Jake so tightly that he had to breathe heavily. I don't know why but it was a reflex action.
According to me Jake had injured his right arm. More worst fractured.

"You guys should take him to the hospital." I say with a worried expression.

"No, I'm not going to the hospital."

"He refuses , can you take him home because Im having a party at home and Jackson has cousins in his house."

I could not say no looking at his condition plus why wouldn't he go to his house. Maybe his parents are not available. I sigh.
"Ok, let's get you home Jake." I say while putting his good arm around my neck.

__________

"Ouch, it hurts. Ouch." Jake screams as I apply some antiseptic on his shoulder.

"It's ok , here done." I've sewed his arm as the area did not swell which means it's only minor injury. So I apply some antiseptic and bandage his hand tightly.

"Thanks Crys. Would you mind if I ask you something."

"Ok"

" Are you in a gang?"
I stare at Jake with my eyes wide thinking what to say, should I tell him ,no.
"No, of course not that stuff is dangerous." Lie

"Ok, so Dave Corbett was your boyfriend."

"Yes, sadly."

"So what's the story behind your breakup?"

I sigh. "He just cheated on me with another girl. That's it." Can't tell him the whole story, not now, not yet.

"You should sleep. Don't get me wrong it's on the couch. You will sleep there."

"But I'm injured, don't you care for me. I'm sure I can squeeze in the bed with you."

"Jake?"

"Yes?"

"Pervert."
