I was speechless. He really had remembered me. If this was supposed to be goodbye, it was a bad one. I looked over at Frank who was watching from a distance. I couldn’t read his expression. I hated that. I turned back to Logan who was walking away. It was clear he couldn’t go very far without his Camaro.

Camaro’s had a lot of meaning to both of us. Owning a Camaro as kids had been our dream. Mine was my father’s car. I rubbed my temples. My past was coming back to haunt me. At least, it was on that track. “Wait,” I said to stop him. “That was your goodbye?” I asked. My heart was beating faster and I couldn’t stop it. “And I had a good reason to be mad at you. We were best friends, Logan. And you had to change that.”

(sorry it's short.)

"No, wasn't planning on it to be that way, I would at least hope not," I said muttering the last part while I turned around. I walked over to her again and looked at her quietly standing a good distance away though understanding that she had complete rights to be mad. Personally, I would hate me to if I'd done that, but I couldn't help myself, I loved her. "I couldn't help that I begun to like you more than a friend. It just happened. I'm sorry," I said rather quickly, but yet pretty firm as well as I was sure that was what to say, but yet again, I felt weak in the knees and couldn't feel like that.

"I was afraid that you were going to date someone else, and then you wouldn't spend any time with me. Dumb ideas, I can't help it," I said sitting down against the wall unable to hold my weight any more as I put my hand on my box in my pocket. I pulled on knee up to my chest and rested my arm on my knee. "Nothing I say is going to be right though," I shrugged quietly being honest as I started feeling more and more like a moron as I became fearful of a response.

I wanted to scream at him but there was something in his eyes that stopped me from doing so. I was furious yet I felt something that I had never felt before. Frank was still watching us carefully as well as the other guys in the garage. I twirled the wrench in my hand. A constant habit I had developed during college. I only did it when I was frustrated. And this was a time for frustration.

I really didn’t know what to say to him. I looked at the car and then back at Logan. “Well, your car’s done. If you have any problems, just bring it on back. Otherwise, I can’t do this right now. Not again.” I placed the wrench back in the toolbox and headed back upstairs to where I lived with Frank. I needed to sleep after a day like this. Not again.

I leaned over my car quietly closing my eyes as I did my best to focus. I needed to, I had to. This was an important race and I needed to at least forget Sophie. Ever since I'd talk to her though, I felt like a moron and I couldn't not think about her. So apparently it was my fault? Just because I fell in love, I was to be banished off of the ends of the earth. Hell, why not? I wasn't going to argue with her.

"Rex! You've got to get out there. Forget about her for a little bit and then get to it," my father said and I just shook my head unsure.

"I'll be there in a minute," I muttered quietly before I zipped up my leather coat before slipping on my helmet. I climbed into my car as she roared to life and I sighed loudly driving her to the starting line. I had to get my mind set on this. Not her. I rubbed my shoulder gently as I put the Camaro into park quietly looking up at the announcer as I heart other cars roaring and purring around me, but I didn't care, I was set on getting done.

My hands tensed up around the wheel and then relaxed in a constant pattern as I slowly became anxious about this all. I looked up at the light and put the car in drive but held down the breaks as I revved her up before finally letting her go. She leapt forward angrily running after the other cars wanting to feel that rush and get away from everyone one else and all the issues.

All day I couldn’t stop thinking about Logan. Why did he have to come back in my life? Why did he come back at all? Franky noticed my mind was preoccupied when I tried to place orange juice down an oil tank. Thankfully, he stopped me in time before I could do any damage. Sad to say that wasn’t the only mistake he stopped me from. Later, I had tried screwing on a bolt with a hammer and I even made the mistake of trying to fix the wrong problem on the wrong vehicle.

“Alright, rooky.” My cousin Tony said after awhile. “Let’s have a little chat shall we?”

When I moved in with Franky, his family took me in as his own. With only one son, at the time, I became the first daughter. Little did they know I would be the first of three. A few years after that, Franky’s wife became pregnant and they had girl. A few years ago, another girl. And now, my Aunt Karen was pregnant again. Doctor’s said it’s a girl. I have no doubt that it is.

Besides his family, Tony took me in as a sister and as a best friend. I had lost mine and so had he in a fight. Tony took me aside and sat me down upstairs. “This isn’t like you, cuz.” Tony stated. “The best mechanic doesn’t make mistakes in our garage.”

“I know.” I sighed and sat back. This was a disaster. With that, he took a long hard look at me.

“I know what you need. Get cleaned up and get dressed. Decent. We’re going out.” With that he pushed me toward my room so I could get ready.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I felt ridiculous. After awhile, my aunt had come in to pick out something really nice. No doubt Franky had told her everything about Logan. Aunt Karen even helped put a little make-up on. I was a little persistent but I allowed her to. When I was finished, Tony took me somewhere I had never been before. A racing track. Everybody was there. I didn’t understand why he had taken me to a racing track.

That is, until, he tapped on my shoulder and pointed. And then I saw him. Logan was sitting in a car on the race track. I didn’t like this. Somehow, I felt this wasn’t going to end well. The lights flashed. Red. Yellow. Another yellow. A third yellow. Until finally green. My heart stopped as Logan took off. This really wasn’t going to end well.

Racing against everyone else, he was calm for the most part with his heart racing a little bit. I could feel that something was wrong. I just felt wrong with something that could happen. I looked around for a few seconds as I just seemed to wait for something to happen. I snarled and yelped a little bit as the car started fighting him actually. "What the Hell's going on?" he snarled as the steering wheel started jerking me and try and pull herself off the track and me out of third place.

I looked over at another driver before I was smashed into it jerking the wheel more. "What are you doing?" I demanded flipping the guy off as I pulled away from him a little bit before him and a second one hit me again. It was bad enough that I was trying to keep the car from driving itself off the road, they weren't helping me any. The second I got slammed, I got knocked loose as I fought for control again and broke into a spin. In the process, I got smacked back into place before I got slammed again and thrown off the track rolling. I didn't remember the rest of it.

When I'd finally stopped rolling, I didn't move as I was pretty much lost. The whole experience of being rolled like that was forgotten as I fought back the black spots that were trying to take me out of consciousness. I didn't move until I smelt the burning gas and I unbuckled myself quickly slipping out of the car. I stumbled away before falling down wincing in pain guessing my ribs were broken and I had a concussion while I started pulling my helmet off.

Tony leaned over to me right as the race began to start. “This should be a good one. I hear your boyfriend is pretty good for a rookie.” I glared at my cousin. I was about to correct him when a sudden noise caught my attention. Something was wrong. I turned back to the track and watched as Logan was thrown around like a pin ball in a pin ball machine. This was definitely not good.

Logan’s car twisted and turned out of control. Finally, he rolled all the way off the track. I jumped up from my seat and ran onto the track. People tried to stop me but I pushed them away. I almost punched a cop who stood right in front of me. “Please, sir. I have to see if he’s alright.” The cop looked at me and then at the scene. As his head was turned, I ran toward Logan. I had to see if he was alright.

In an instant, the car exploded with a wave of fire. “LOGAN!” I screamed, I could feel the tears streaming down my face. I couldn’t remember the last time I cried. I couldn’t feel my legs as they buckled under me. This couldn’t happen. As I looked back up at the flaming car, I noticed a body was moving. It couldn’t be.

I ran with all of my might. As far as my body would take me. Logan lied on the ground, obviously in pain. I could hear the sirens coming. “Logan!” I yelled to get his attention. I knelt beside him. Thankfully, he was breathing. “Don’t you EVER do that to me again.”

I could smell the burning gas getting more and more potent. With the car exploding I rolled over to cover my neck getting my body cut up from the shrapnel. I groaned into the ground trying to move but my body wouldn't move. I heard someone running up to me and I just laid still until I heard Sophie again.

I rolled over onto my back again looking up at her with confusion etched on my cut up face. "What are you doing here?" he asked quietly looking up at her softly before he started sitting up groaning as he did with his head swimming painfully as he pulled a piece of metal out of his arm. "Sorry about your engine," he said quietly starting to get up before he moaned and fell back onto his hands and knees. From there he rolled over to lay on his back again not wanting to get up or even try to again.

"What the hell happened?" he asked next wanting to know how the car blew up. He'd blacked out about half way through the spin so after that, it made no sense. The gap between the spin and the explosion was blank and he hoped she would fill it in. Half of him didn't want to know though. It was terrifying thought and he'd wrecked his car, his break.

I carefully tried to hold him down. “No, don’t move. The ambulance is coming.” The ambulance finally stopped and picked him up. I jumped in the back and we were taken to the hospital. The whole ride there, I took his hand. I wasn’t going to leave him. I didn’t want to. “You were hit pretty badly. I don’t know what happened but you just started spinning and hitting things.” I wiped the tears from my face.

“And don’t worry about the engine. Engines can be replaced.” I paused before I could finish my statement. “You can’t. But you’re alive now. That’s all that matters.” They drove us the hospital. It wasn’t long before they took him in and I was forced to wait. Fifteen minutes later, Tony arrived with Logan’s father. Logan’s father looked at me as he waited.

“He’s still in the ER. The doctor hasn’t come out yet.” Tony walked up to me and embraced me. I felt like crying but I held it in. Logan was alright. He was alive. The doctor finally addressed and told us of his injuries. They weren’t terrible but he recommended he not drive for a bit. We all headed into the hospital room and I sat in the chair next to his bed. I wasn’t happy with him, even if I was glad he was alive.

“You are such a jerk.” I muttered though I still took his hand. Feeling his touch reassured me he was going to be fine. This wasn’t all a dream. “I asked for them to send the car to the garage. I’ll find out what went wrong. That wasn’t just an ordinary accident.”

I'd finally passed out when he was picked up and taken to the hospital. I couldn't remember the ride there as I was to much of in a deep sleep to get a good amount of sleep. While they'd bandaged me up, I'd finally woke up at the end of the operation looking around before hearing the door open. I looked at the blurry figure seeing Sophie and hearing her slightly angry voice. I sighed looking at her and shook my head a little bit but still smiled.

"I deserve it so be mad all you want. I'm fine with it," he said softly before adding about the car, "I don't know how much you can get out of an exploded car to put back together."

I closed my eyes again tightly biting my lip before laying still again not wanting to get up again. I started shifting to sit up before I felt my stomach lurch and my body ache. My eyes closed again as I just laid there not wanting to move now once again. To much pain came from it and I didn't need her any more mad at me than she already was. I knew it wasn't smart and I didn't want to try the temper that i knew was there.

Again, he tried to get up but I placed my hands on his shoulders. “Don’t,” I said cautiously. “You’re still hurt. Just rest. I’m not going anywhere.” I sat back down in my seat and sighed. I could finally breathe. “Not this time.” The accident kept running through my mind. I hated the fact that I almost lost him.

Maybe there was more to him than I thought. I was feeling something for him but I didn’t understand what it was. I felt it best not to say anything. At least until I figure it out. “What do you think you were doing out there, anyway? Don’t you know you’re supposed to have engineers at least check your engine?” I wasn’t sure if I was right but I, at least, wanted it done on ever engine in every vehicle he would ever get in. He was not going to go back on that track without me checking his engine.

"We always have to make sure that the engine wasn't illegal for that race. It was fine when I started, it was fine coming out of the garage, and it was fine driving her there as I warmed up. I've had people try to sabotage me before for being a good rookie, but I always caught them. I'm not stranger to it and I'm not scared of it," he said quietly closing his eyes again feeling his body ache as the morphine was already wearing off because of my extreamly strong immune system. He put a hand over his broken ribs knowing them so now as it hurt to take any larger breaths of air any more.

"By the time I knew something was wrong, I was already on the track," I added biting my lip tasting the blood and bit of dirt on my face from falling down before. I wanted to get back to that track and see what happened and kick those two racer's asses, but I didn't think that would happen.

“Easy guys. Easy.” I said as I guided the guys to bring in the car. It was burned and then engine was definitely shot. But I was going to find the problem. No doubt Logan’s car had been sabotaged. The boys guided the car in the right spot. With a little difficulty, I opened the hood and examined the engine. Aside from it being seared, everything seemed to be in order. But I knew something was wrong. I could just feel it.

“So tell me again, why you’re doing this?” Franky asked. “We already know it was sabotaged.” I looked over at him, not really believing it. “Ok, so maybe I don’t. Accidents happen all the time in those racers. I watch about five of those racers crash in almost every race.” I cringed at the words. Again, the image of the incident flashed in my mind. Never in my life would I ever want to see that again; especially with Logan behind the wheel.

“I know someone sabotaged it. I can just feel it.” I checked between every space I could fine. Finally, I found it. “Ah ha!” I yelled in victory and pointed for Franky to look. “Observe.” Franky leaned forward and noticed the problem.

“No bad. Point taken.” Franky nodded his head in agreement.

"REX! YOU ARE NOT GOING OUT AGAIN TONIGHT!" my father's angry voice boomed through the shop as I walked briskly into it before ducking a swing from him. "You heard what the doctor said and you don't even have a car!"

"That's what you think. Renegade and X. I haven't driven X in a while but a few tweaks and the Charger'll be fine!" I argued with him standing tall before my father who still was taller than me by an inch. Then again, he was taller than most people, he was a big guy.

"You almost died! Doesn't that phaze you?" he demanded glaring into my eyes as if he was trying to suck out my soul or something. I felt like he could have if it was possible to do so, but my anger and will over took him and kept me from backing away.

"No! It just makes me want to get back out there and find who did that!" I snarled back walking into the garage before I was grabbed by my collar wincing in pain at my still achy body. I grabbed his wrists trying to pull myself away from him but he held tight. I snarled tempted to kick him, but he was my father, not an enemy.

"Rex, you aren't listening, you're permission to race was revoked. You are blamed for the crash and taking out three other racers with you nearly killing one of them. That's it, you are out!" he shouted at me.

I stopped fighting him and he let me down to the ground and I stood there in shock. It was insane. How could they blame for for something I didn't do? Those corrupt bastards. I sat down against the wall using my body as its own muscles. After a while though, I just sunk down while my father went to go talk to Franky about what was wrong with the car. He really wanted to know if it was my fault, but I didn't care. I was mad. I was mad that I wrecked my car. I was mad that I was blamed for someone's near death. And I was beyond mad that who ever did sabotage my car was going to get away with it.

Franky and I stopped as we both heard shouting from outside. The voices were very distinct. I tried to walk out there and stop the yelling but Franky stopped me, shaking his head. Sadly, I knew he was right. The guys needed to handle it themselves. We waited until Logan’s father finally walked in. But Logan didn’t. Franky went to attend to Lou while I walked outside to Logan.

Logan looked so pitiful, I couldn’t help but smile. I sat down next to him and leaned against the wall. “He’s only doing what any dad would do. He cares for you.” I looked ahead and watched as other cars drove past our garage. I looked back at Logan who still didn’t’ seem very happy. “So I found the problem with your engine. It was a little hard at first but I figured it out. Your car was definitely sabotaged.”
