- The last race is taking place on our home track, you'll have a huge advantage so you better win. - Marshall announced.

- I'll try my best. I have three more races before it though. 

- Yep, I know, so let's not slack, shall we? The next race is in a month, we're racing in California.

- Hot. - Lucy sighed.

Lucy had been training for about two weeks when Elliot invited her to hang out. She didn't want to take breaks, but everyone in the crew agreed it was a good idea to take some days off to rest. 

 - Where are we going this time? - Lucy asked Elliot.

- I thought about going to my house, watching a movie, I don't know.

- Sure, why not.

They talked about racing and all kinds of stuff before reaching Elliot's house. He helped her out of the car and welcomed her inside.

- It's a nice place you have here. - Lucy looked around.

- Thanks. Hard work pays off I guess.

Lucy walked around the house, exploring everything she could.

- That's a lot of awards. - Lucy awed at the award wall.

- This is years of work. This is definitely the thing I'm most proud of. But whatever, there's room for more. Anyway, wanna watch a movie?

- Sure, what are we watching?

- Whatever you want. I really like Lolita.

- I've never seen it. - The title didn't seem familiar to Lucy.

- It's like a romance movie from a while ago. If you've never seen it's a great watch. 

- If you say so.

Lucy and Elliot got comfortable on Elliots King's bed to watch the movie. 

At the start, Lucy didn't know what to think of the movie, but going further into it she decided to just watch it without questioning the plot. 

- This is my favorite part right here. - Elliot turned to Lucy.

- Why? - Lucy was staring into Elliot's light blue eyes.

- Because this is where they have sex. - Elliot's lips touched Lucy's.

Lucy was muddled for a couple of moments before accepting what was happening and letting it happen. Seconds later Elliot's hand was already under Lucy's shirt.

- ...I've never done that before. - Lucy said laying in bed afterward.

- Yeah, I could tell. Don't worry about it, you were great. I'm gonna take a quick shower, be right back.

Elliot left the bed and left his phone unlocked on the bed. Lucy knew she shouldn't do anything, but her curiosity got the best of her. She immediately went to his search history, since she didn't want to read messages or other private material. Luckily for Lucy, he didn't delete his search history.

"Car wrappers around me" 5 hours ago

"How to pronounce quesadilla" 3 hours ago

"Consent laws in Ohio" 1 hour ago

"How old is Lucy Green?" 1 hour ago

Lucy didn't know what to think of his search history, but she wanted to go home.

- Hey, can you drive me home? - Lucy asked Elliot as he got out of the shower.

- You're not gonna stay?

- No, I just remembered I have some stuff to do.

Elliot looked at the clock:

- It's midnight, by the time I drive you back it's gonna be 3 am.

- No yeah, I know, I have some stuff to do for tomorrow I really can't stay.

- If you say so. - Elliot put on a shirt.

The ride home was awfully silent. The only thing not killing Lucy out of awkwardness was the radio.

- Why so quiet? - Elliot asked.

- I'm just tired, it's pretty late.

- Alright...Listen, if it's something I did then sorry.

- No, it's all okay, I'm just tired, don't worry about it. - Lucy leaned against the window.

Elliot drove her home and dropped her off before saying goodbye. Lucy waved him goodbye and entered the house.

- You're still up. - Lucy saw Marshall.

- What a genius observation. Yeah, I'm up, I had some stuff I wanted to get done. 

- Do you know how old Elliot Morgan is?

- Yeah, he's 26.

- Okay.

- Why are you asking?

- No reason, just want to know my competition.

After a tiny chat both of them went to their own rooms. Lucy couldn't sleep for some time, so she went to Marshall's room:

- Hey...Are you sleeping?

- Well not anymore. What do you want?

- ...Well this is stupid, but do you think maybe I could sleep with you? I can't sleep.

- It sure is stupid. Sure, whatever, you can sleep here for tonight I guess.

Lucy got in Marshall's bed. They both turned their backs on each other and went to sleep.
