*Read the Author's Note at the end !!*
Usually my phone has a good purpose. Whether that being to recieving funny snapchats or sending funny snapchats. Since Harry and I broke up, all it is doing is, ringing, beeping from a message being recieved, or just simply ringing once then a voicemail is left. Same goes for Lexi. She calls me telling me about Niall's voice mails but in the nicest way possible, I don't care. I didn't care to listen to Harry's, so much that the minute I receive one, I delete it straight away. I meant it when I said that I am going to be strong. I have cried about four times since we broke up, which was last week, so I think I'm doing pretty good. It's just hard to let go of someone who, in my case thought loved you. We never said that to each other yet, but all the boys would say to him that Harry was whipped because he would do anything for me. I preferred whipped Harry to no Harry, but I definitely prefer no Harry to cheating Harry. Brad and Luke literally couldn't be better. Ever since Lexi told them we broke up with the guys, they are less tense and are back to themselves. Which I found odd as I still havn't come to the conlcusion to ask why they hated them in the first place yet. Sometimes when I think about our relationship over, I realised that I did love him. A bit late I know, but sitting around and thinking I concluded that I have never felt that way about anyone. As I said tho, I have let it go. I'm not planning on falling to my knees begging him back anytime soon just because I have attained new feelings for him. If anything he should be on his knees for me. Luke and Brad have competed in three more drag races since then. Lexi and I decided not to go to them as the risk of seeing Harry and them was too high. We are going tonight though. Its the final one before it takes a break for a month or two. I don't know the specifics, but that is all Brad told me. I had to go to this one, fuck Harry. I am living my life. If I bump into him, his chest isn't the only thing I will 'accidently' hit. Brad's giving Lexi and I a lift to the obscure location. Luke left with one of their friends a while ago to pump up the tires in the car.
"Nervous?" Lexi asks Brad. Brad just smirks and shakes his head.
"Lex please, we already know your idiotic brother is going to win so I'm not that worried to be honest" He states.
"Hey, you never know might be your turn to win this time" I smile nudging his elbow softly as he is driving and I would like to live the rest of my life. He just grins back at me.
Once we arrive at the old rundown warehouse, in the middle of nowhere, it is jam-packed. Mostly men gathered around in groups awaiting the start of the race. This is only the starting line. People spread out all over he course in hope of seeing a fatel crash occur and being the few to tell the story. After a quick meeting with Luke, Brad tells us where to meet him and warns us not to talk to anyone we dont know and not to take drinks off anyone we dont know. God,he is like mum.
"I have missed this" I say looking around.
"I bet you have missed this too" Lexi says pulling a small lagan of Swedish Vodka.
"Oh fuck yes" I smirk. We make our way to the side of the run down building where there isnt much people around and open the small vodka. This has to be my favourite kind. It is definitely is'nt as cheap as the others but takes like a mixture of sweet and sour on your tastebugs, the two flavours contradicting eachother.
"How much was it, ill give you half?" I ask as she takes a sip. She shakes her head half way through drinking, waving her heand in my face.
"Don't worry about it" She shrugs.
"Lex, no, how much?"
"Leave it honestly, think of it as your birthday present?" Lexi settles. I smile and nod, thanking her. I look at her and realsie just how lucky I am to have a friend like her, a best friend at that. She honestly would do anything for me and I know that, like I would do anything for her and she knows that. We have gotten in trouble together saved eachothers arses from getting in jail and have made mistakes together. But to tell you the truth, I would rather make a million and one mistakes with Lexi than make them on my own.
"This one is a quick race" Lexi mentions as she leans back against the wall. I raise my eyebrow at her.
"As in, this one is all about speed. Remember they did this last time too when they took a break. At least that's what Luke told me" She explains. Speed. Brad. Car. My heart stops for a moment in time, but then I remeber what Brad said to me at the start of all this race nonsense.
"Sky, people die, people live, people get hurt. I am taking that risk now. You know why? Because its for something I love. I would take undescribable risks for the things I love. Like these."
He is right. He is doing something he loves. Who am I to take all of that away from him for my selfishness.
"Stop thinking and drink" Lexi smiles handing me the bottle. Bottoms up.

Not so surprisingly Luke won. You would think by now that the crowd would get sick of him winning, but no. Every time they get more and more pumped up for him, which you can see he loves. Shockingly enough we never saw Harry and them. They either A) didn't come or B) was in the middle of that crowd. Whichever one it was I was happy. Would of been an awkward encounter and to be truthful I dont think I can hold back Lexi on my own. Brad and Luke had to meet someone after the race which was weird but i suppose he basically won every race this year so. Afterwards about a hundred guys coming up to us and three girls, Brad took me home while Luke took Lexi. When we walked into the house Colton and his friends were sitting on the couch watching some horror movie.
"Hi guys" Brad waved to them.
"Hi Skylar, how have you been? good?"
"Hi Skylar, How is your holidays going?"
"So pretty"
All of the above happened in one split second. All of Colton's friends were either standing or sitting dead straight. I knew they had a crush on me, but i mean fourteen, seventeen. Bit of an age difference.
"Ugh guys, sit down" Coton sighs smacking himself in the face. I turn to Brad who looks like he is about to bust. We quickly walk into the kitchen were we explode.
"Skylar, them kids are in love with you" Brad laughs.
"I know" I laugh back catching a tear that escaped my eye.
"No work tomorrow, or nothing, how about you say we have ourselves a little brother sister day? Like old times?" He asks nudging me.
"Can't wait" I smile.
