Mechanic girl

Chapter 6 : The beginning

I'm looking at the SRT Demon since I put it in the garage. The jet black car gives me chills every time I'm running my fingers on it. It scares me to death. When I first put the key in the engine, the sound wasn't good. I have to change it completely. By this means fixing and modifying it. But how could I do this when Luke hasn't been honest with me? I have no idea why should I modify this beauty. Unless...he wants to race. Another reason can't be.

"Alex, we should go home. You've been staring at this car for hours", May's voice brings me back to reality.
"Yeah, w-we should do that", I say and I grab my backpack and I close the garage.

Once we arrive at home, May goes to the kitchen and she heats up a frozen pizza since we're lazy to be cooking something.
After the pizza is heated up, we started eating. But I was way too lost in my thoughts with the car.
"Tommorow night, we'll go out", May says.
"As we, you mean you and me? Or you and Damien?", I ask.
"All of us", May says and I choke with a piece of pizza.
"Are you kidding me? There's no way that I'm going out when I know that Luke is around me. Hell no", I say taking a sip of water.
"Please", she says making those puppy eyes.
"May, don't do that. I don't want to be near Luke knowing that his car is staying in the garage"
"Come on, it will be fun. Please, just this time", she pleaded.
I let out a sigh. I guess she doesn't leave me a choice.
"Okay. I'm coming. Just this time", I say.
"Thank you thank you. I bet you won't regret it", she says leaving to her room. Probably to say to Damien that I come too.

I already regret it.

The following day

At Luke's place

Beep! Beep! Beep!

Fucking alarm! I stopped it, and slowly I open my eyes letting them to adjust to the light.
I stretched a little bit, and next my feet led me to the bathroom where I stepped in the shower.
I turned on the hot water, letting it to flow on my body.
I was thinking, again, about letting my car on Alexis's hands. I know something about cars too, but there's something about her that makes me wonder if she really knows how to be a mechanic.
Bullshit! She doesn't. Or she does?
Oh, fuck off Luke.
I blacked out my thoughts, and continuing my shower, and after my routine.
Next, I changed into black jeans and a grey t-shirt. I put on my black sneakers, I took my phone and I went downstairs to the kitchen where the boys were eating breakfast and drinking coffee.

"Morning guys", I say.
"Morning"
"Luke, tonight we're going out with the girls. Just to know", Elijah says.
"Excuse me? The girls?", I ask.
"Yes. Alexis and Maya", Damien adds.
"Where we're going?"
"We're thinking to go at the club", Ryan says.
"I think that Alexis shouldn't come. She has work to do", I say.
"But she will come tonight. May convinced her",Damien continues.
Oh Gosh!
"Fine. We'll go out tonight", I say.

At the club, few more hours later

"Here we are", I say parking the car.
"Please tell me that you'll act nice", May says.
"I will try my best. But it won't be easy since I'm around Luke", I add.
"Just this night"
"I will try"

We get out of the car making our way to the gate. The bodyguard let us in, and I'm surrounded by smoke and drunk people.
May is searching for the table that boys are supposed to wait for us.
"May, over here!", I hear Damien calling.

We make our way to the table, and I want already to be home, or with the car.

"Hey guys", I say.
"Hey Alexis. Here sit", Elijah says.
"Thank you Eli. I hope you don't mind if I call you like that", I say.
"Oh no. I don't mind. It's like you're my little sister", he says with a smile.
"So,Alexis-", Luke begins, "have you done anything to the car?", he asks nicely. Way too nicely. Something's off, I can feel it.
"No, I haven't. I have to do a list with what needs to be replaced and what needs to be modified. I might done it later", I say.
"How much it will cost?", Ryan asks.
"I can't tell the price now. I have to search very carefully. It won't be cheap, that I could tell. But I have to be very careful with such a beautiful car", I add.
"Yeah, you should", Luke adds rudely.

I need to go out. I'm not staying any minute here with such a douchebag.
"Excuse me. I will go to take some fresh air", I say.
"Do you feel alright?", Ryan asks.
"Yeah, I just don't like the smoke. I will be right back", I say with a smile trying to convince them.
"We'll be right here", Elijah says.

But I'm not coming back. Once I was out I made my way to the car, and jumped in.
I started the engine, and I drive to the garage .
There's no way that I'm coming back.

30 minutes later, I arrived in front of it. I parked my car outside and I opened the door. I turn on the lights and the view of jet black car shows again.
I looked at the clock on my phone. Was pretty late, so looks like I'm spending the night here. I hope no one will come. I don't want to talk with someone right now.
I glanced one more time at the car before I open the hood.

Well, here we go.

Back at the club

"Guys, it's been 30 minutes since Alexis it's gone", Elijah says. I roll my eyes and slightly shake my head.
"She left, that's obvious", Ryan asks.
I take another sip of my beer and I look over  at Damien and Maya. They're both a little drunk, and it's most likely to Damien to take her at home. Not hers, that's for sure.
Thank God that we came with 2 cars. I think I will go for a walk.

"Guys. I will go for a walk. Take care of Damien and Maya", I say getting up from the table.
They nodded that they understood and I left. I got out of the club and I went to the garage where I see a parked car in front of it. This is must be Alexis's car. I stopped the engine and I jumped out of the car and my feet dragged inside of the garage where pieces of the engine were laying on the ground. She began to work. I slightly smirk. She was too focused to notice me. I fake coughed and her eyes meet mine. She had a little bit of oil on her face, but she looked cute. Wait what? What did I just say?

"Oh hey Luke", she says cleaning her face with a paper towel. "I don't remember calling you to come. So what are you doing here?"
"I just wanted to check if you started to work on my car", I say.
"Now that you checked, you can leave", she says coldly. I would lie if I say that it didn't bothered me. As if I was making her upset by just being here.
"Why are you always being bitchy?", I ask.
"Why are you always being so mean to me?", she asked.
Honestly I don't know, but it's fun to mess around with her mind.
" 'Cause I want to", I say.
"You're  so fucked up Luke. If you keep being like this you can take your car and fuck off. I'm sorry for this beauty having such a douche as a driver"
Ouch, that hurts a bit.
"You're not going to do this", I say.
"Why are you so sure?"
"Because I'mma fucking blow your brains out if you give up on this car", I whisper in her ear.
And I leave her, but not before letting her know something.
"Remember Alexis! One month. Good luck sweetie", I wink at her and I leave.

Alexis's P.O.V

He's sick. He's so fucking sick. Okay Luke. Wanna play like that, let's play then. But this car will be under my control. Not yours. I can't wait until I'll see your face.

I glance at the car, and a smirk appeared on my face.
"Let's fucking dance Luke", I say.
