oh, did I? My apologies.

Although, I guess here and now it's only just a hobby. We have this club, my roommate and I. We're both into cars and we just like to race around, from time to time. We still haven't reached a consensus on which car is better.

[gasping]

the ride home i got was definitely stunt-free
i think i missed out

and by the way: you can tell your roommate you have a cheerleader on your side :)

[killertrack]

would you like me to take you on a drift ride?
i try not to spring that on people - it makes a lot feel a bit sick, you know?

[gasping]

i would love to go on whatever a drift ride is
the faster, the better

( luckily for them both, she's got a fairly strong stomach. )

[killertrack]

well then... that's a date?
when d'you want to go?

[gasping]

my social calendar's pretty free.
i would make room for you, though, even if it wasn't

( she's trying to play it cool. gauge his interest. trying and failing, anyway. she has no chill. )

[killertrack]

[ well, well, well. ]

I'm honored that you would.

What about Wednesday, after my set at Mahogany? A night drive?

[ Romantic. ]

[gasping]

a night drive sounds perfect.

i can bring the snacks
are you a savory or sweet kind of guy?

( very. and she means snackwise, obviously. she has a feeling he's a real sweet guy, in more ways than one. )

[killertrack]

[ ...And wouldn't she be oh so very right. ]

I tend to lean towards sweet, but you don't have to do that. We can pick something on the way, if you'd like.

[gasping]

( stop it, baby, she's going to get a cavity. )

it doesn't seem fair to make you do all the work

plus, i'm already at the store
post-run snack food cravings cannot be ignored

[killertrack]

[ YOU GET WHAT YOU ASK FOR ]

and what would your post run cravings be?

[gasping]

( technically, her cravings send her to the blood bank to pick up her supply of b-positive for the week, but... that's not exactly polite conversation to spring on somebody. so she'll give her alternative: )

usually something salty but i'm a big fan of the pull and peel licorices

i like to practice making knots with my tongue
and they're better tasting than cherry stems :)

[killertrack]

wait
you can do that? I thought it was a myth

[gasping]

seventh grade summer camp has its perks, i guess
if you want a demonstration, you'll have to get here before i finish the bag

[killertrack]

...now?

[ It feels forward. ]

we should probably go out before I get to see any of that. I mean, I'm - my foster dad would kill me if I didn't treat a girl right.

[gasping]

( it doesn't have to be. )

you can always buy me another bag
i don't think the store will run out any time soon

[killertrack]

I can do that

[gasping]

it's a date then
you bring the car and the twizzlers, i'll bring the tongue-tying lesson

[killertrack]

[ well, one would call this almost choking on one's own breath, there, Baby. ]

i'm looking forward to it
