I wake up to my alarm the next morning in Clyde's room where I'd fallen asleep. I get up and walk into the kitchen.

"Morning sleepyhead," Clyde says.

"Mornin'," I say with a sleepy smile. "Where's Chase?"

"He had to get some clothes for this weekend," he replies handing me a bowl of cereal.

"You got my favorite," I say happily.

"Yep," he says with a smile. "When you're done you best get ready and pack."

"Yeah, I've gotta get to the airport," I sigh, eating my cereal.

Once I'm done eating I take a super quick shower and get ready putting on leggings, a tank top, and my Vans. I then pack my suitcase quickly before packing my work bag. When I'm done I walk out to the kitchen to see Chase dressed in a t-shirt, jeans, and sneakers.

"Morning Savy," he says with a smile.

"Morning Chase," I grin. "Well I better run, I'll see y'all later."

I head out to my truck and drive to the airport for my seven thirty flight. I park and go though all the airport processes before meeting Todd and Harrison at the gate.

"Are y'all ready for this weekend?" I ask.

"Hell yeah!" they say as a girl walks up and sits next to Harrison.

"Hey Keely," he says hugging her.

"Hi I'm Savannah," I say introducing myself to her.

"I've heard a lot about you," she says. "I'm Keely."

"And I've heard nothing about you," I say turning to Harrison.

"Harrison hasn't mentioned me?" she questions. "I'm his girlfriend."

"Harry has a girlfriend," I say messing with him.

"This is why I didn't tell you Sav, I knew you'd do this," he sighs.

"Now boarding flight 160 to Dallas-Fort Worth," the flight attendant announces. We all get up and board the plan to go to Texas Motor Speedway.

Keely and I talk the entire flight, I think it really annoyed Harrison.

"Harry, Todd did either of y'all get a rental car?" I ask.

"Yeah I did," Harrison replies.

"Alright, Keely is obviously going to ride with you so Todd you're with me," I say.

"Sounds good," Todd says and we get our rental cars then head to the track.

Before we go to the track we stop at the hotel we're staying at for the weekend. Keely, Harrison, Chase and myself are sharing a room while Todd has his own room. We check in then head up to our rooms to drop our stuff off.

Once we're done we head over to the track. When we get there I send them off to do whatever while I help out their crews.

As practice time approaches I head to Todd's hauler. I knock on the door but he doesn't answer so I let myself in. I head to the back to see Todd and Harrison playing NASCAR Heat 3 and Keely is sitting on her phone.

"Hello, practice in thirty," I tell them.

"Sav it's fine, let us finish this game," Harrison says.

"No, now. You both have to check in with your teams," I say standing in front of the tv.
