"Oh my god, this Corvette is so fucking sexy." I ran my hand along the peeling red paint. It wasn't in the best condition, but a Corvette was a Corvette. "Can I drive it?"
"There's no engine. We used it for parts," Drake said.
My heart sank into my stomach, and I let out a wheeze. "You what?"
"We were running low on funds, so we did what we had to do," Josiah said. "It never meant anything to us anyway."
What the fuck?
"How the hell can you call yourselves a racing team if you're willing to do that to one of the best-looking cars ever made?" I shook my head. "It's disgusting."
"What? Racing?" Drake's mouth fell open. "Oh my god, no. We wanted a driver."
I looked over at Josiah, then Drake. "I drive cars for a living, therefore I'm a driver. What's the confusion?"
"You said you drove for RTR," Josiah said.
I nodded. "Yeah, Roger Truscott Racing."
"Oh no. Oh my god. Look, in our line of work, that means Real Time Robotics," Drake said.
"Robotics? What the fuck is going on?" I asked.
"You wouldn't happen to know much about combat robotics, would you?" Drake forced a smile, and it wasn't difficult to see the hope leave his eyes.

And three, she is a female with opinions who thoroughly enjoys sharing them with no inhibition. A one-track mind (with a few side streets), all she wants is to win a race to shut everyone up about her mistakes and misfortunes.
But when she's down on her luck, a team of nerds finds their way into her life, giving her an offer that she probably should refuse.

Stunningly Ruined
~ I put my foot down and drive to the first corner. The track is always wet at the start of the day as the water truck is able to go out and keep it that way, but by the end of the day all the water will have been used so it will be bone dry and that's when the real fun begins. I pull the hydro, the chrome shaft that's connected to my rear brakes, to lock the rear wheels so I can initiate a drift. I feather the throttle accordingly as to keep the car sideways and continue onto the next corner... This is it. Nothing else matters. Just me, my car, their car and the sound of tyres tearing rubber against the drying tarmac... ~ ~ "Laurie, you got something..." He trails off as his thumb brushes my lips enough to turn my head towards him. Before I know it, the space between us is closing and my body is frozen. His lips draw ever closer to mine and involuntarily, my back arches so my mouth presses against his. My lips burn with passion as I find myself unable to stop kissing him. My rational side kicks in and I pull myself away from him. What the hell am I doing? ~ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Laurie Williams is a wreck of a woman. Alcoholism and not giving a damn are her two main personality traits.

But it always finds her again. On a downward hill spiral from the beginning, she loses friendships, relationships and even herself. The only thing keeping her afloat is her love for cars.

I sat straddling his legs again, running my fingers up and down his chest. "Seriously, if you don't stop I think I'm gonna hide underneath the covers." He wiggled his eyebrows and lifted the blanket below him. "I'd be down for that." I gasped and whacked him on the shoulder repeatedly, until he flipped us over and was on top of me. He placed his legs on either side of mine and ran his hands through my hair, staring at every part of my face. "Where have you been all my life?" "Waiting." - live on the wild side.

Under Pressure // Aaron Hotchner
"To live every day as if it had been stolen from death, that is how I would like to live. To feel the joy of life, as Eve felt the joy of life. To separate oneself from the burden, the angst, the anguish that we all encounter every day. To say I am alive, I am wonderful, I am. I am. That is something to aspire to." - Garth Stein, The Art of Racing in the Rain Published: July 2, 2020 Completed: February 18, 2024 Disclaimer: 1. The NASCAR racers mentioned are real actual people with the exception of Clint Adams who is my OC. Any attitude, dialogue, or behavior they display is purely fictional except for references to their real career wins and performances. 2. I have done heavy research into the world of NASCAR for this story. This includes watching races, reading up on articles, looking at stats and so on. But like anything I am bound to make mistakes. I am only human. Thank you for reading and enjoy the ride.Concluida

I described. "Rammed into his car with yours deliberately?" she counted on her third finger. "Um...I'm not proud of that one," I said cringing. "And called him offensive names?" She ended the list and I winced. "Twice." I specified. "And you're still alive?" She blinked, looking genuinely surprised. "Geez, don't be dramatic or anything..." I frowned at her hyperbolic statement. "Maybe he's keeping you around to get revenge." She suggested. Possible. I wouldn't put it past him. "I didn't know alright!" I exclaimed. "Let's hope that excuse is acceptable.." She was merely amused.
