Takeshi
I parked my car a block away from the shop as I had gotten here early, I check the time that was texted to me not a few hours prior.
~'I will be done at 6'~
It wasn't even half past five when I pulled up, 'I'm acting like an overzealous teenager,' I shake my head not completely sure what my issue is, glancing at the current time, it's almost a quarter till, 'definitely a more reasonable time to show up.' I put the car in gear, turn the corner, and pull into the parking lot, the sun was just past the buildings to the west keeping the lot shaded from the evening rays.
I can see the silhouettes of two people standing in the front of the shop, I leave my car running as I step out to have a cigarette. I lean against the car and light the cylindrical paper I'm holding between my teeth. I close my eyes as I bask in the relatively quiet ambiance of the edge of the suburbs, taking slow drags off the cigarette, until I hear the jingle of the door opening. I turn my head to see a tall guy with long hair pulled into a ponytail walking backwards out the door, "I will see you next week," his accent is thick but understandable, 'He must have been the one on the phone,' "Yeah, see all y'all later," another slightly familiar voice comes from the other side of the man.
Following the two men out was Kailyn, who gave a wave to the people inside before scanning the small lot, I drop the butt of my cigarette and crush it as I make eye contact with the blond. I can see a twinge of pink on his cheeks as he departs from the other two and crosses the lot. I was so absorbed in watching the mechanic walk towards me I almost didn't hear one of the others call out to Kailyn, "Where are- oh, is that?" The blond turns to respond, and the darker haired male starts running towards us.
Kailyn is blushing even more as he barely is able to greet me before the other is standing next to him, "This is your car, right?" He asks looking at the car more then anything else, "Yeah and I'm assuming you were the one fangirling over it earlier," I quip, he lets out a laugh, "Yeah, Skylines are my favorite cars," he finally looks up, I nod, "It's definitely one of the best I've ever driven," I lean over the edge of the roof. The taller man is now standing next to them, "Is this what you were freaking out about?" He gives it a once over, not seeming too impressed, "It's not everyone's cup of tea, but it's certainly not like any of the day runners that you've probably worked on," I say, "Day runners?" He questions looking at the other two mechanics, "Oh boy you have a lot to learn," the darker haired male runs a hand down his face, "I'll explain on the way to the station," he gives a huff, "See you later Kai," they wave each other off.
Now being left to ourselves I fully take in the young man before, lips pulling into a smirk, "So, my cars a beast?" I look him up and down one last time, his blush turning brighter, "I- I sa- said what I said," he stutters out reaching for the door. I continue to watch him until he disappears into my vehicle, letting out a sign I follow into the car, "Have everything?" I ask placing my hand on the gear shift, glancing to my left, "Yeah," his voice just as quiet as it was when I met him, I shift up as I ease into driving.
"The end of the semester is coming up, right?" I ask as we make it to the main road, "Ye- Yeah we have exams ne- next week," he adjusts his bag at his feet, "Th-then we go on su- summer break," he tells, I give a short nod, "How many exams do you have to take?" My eyes drift to the passenger as he briefly thinks about it, "Um four, I already took two of them," he offers, "That's nice you don't have them all, he nods, "But I have both engineering exams to get done," I hear a slight sigh in his voice, "Hey, don't let it psych you out, I bet you'll do great," I see a small smile breach his lips and I feel that fluttering heat again. The rest of the drive to Akina was done in a comfortable silence, with the exception of the radio music what was on low.
