"Are you ready racers? Start your engines! Three! Two! One! Go go go!" the announcer said excitedly over the loudspeaker, the engines revved as the flag girl gave the signal to go. The cars sped out onto the track, it was loud but exhilarating. "Lightning takes the lead, but Chuck is close behind!" the announcer announces.

 I can't seem to take my eyes off of the shiny red car that's dominating in the lead, it's almost hypnotic. I peel my eyes away and glance at Gabe whos cheering excitedly, I smile and look back at the red racer. There is so much noise and chaos but it feels like it's only me and him, like I'm his fangirl. Fangirl? Gah! Who am I? Keep it in your pants Y/N, you don't even want to be here, remember? I scold myself in my thoughts. 

All of as sudden Chuck slams into Lightning, I suck in a breath, I want to look away but I can't, I need to know Lightning is gonna be okay. Lightning isn't fazed, he's in second now but soon he reclaims his place in first just as the race finishes! Gabe and I jump up cheering excitedly with the other fans, Lightning steps out of his car and waves at the crowd, his eyes scan the crowd until he finds me, he flashes a brilliant smile and then looks away to the man who looks like his manager, his manager man nods and disappears off somewhere. Just as Lighting is getting his new gold medal placed around his neck, I feel someone tap my shoulder.
