One Shot 15: Race To Your Heart
"Someone dared to challenge Lesley?"
"Whoa. He must have high self confidence huh."
"We all know who is going to win anyway. I'll put all my bet to Lesley."
"Yeah, me too."
People who were on the roadside which was usually the starting ppint of the drag racing stopped talking when a Lykan Hypersport car came. And a magenta-haired girl came out from the car.
"Shit, bro. Lesley has a new car?"
"And not just a new car. Only seven cars were only made and she was able to purchase that?"
Lesley removed her sunglasses as she closed her car's door and circled the keyholder on her forefinger as she walked towards a pink short-haired woman who was leaning on her Aston Martin One.
"Hey Drag Racer Queen." The pink short-haired woman greeted as Lesley went near her.
"Don't call me like that Fan." Lesley smiled, "So, have any idea of who challenged me?"
Fanny shrugged, "No idea either." She peeped on her car, "You gonna test your new car?"
"Yeah. Good timing that someone challenged me. We will see if this Lykan Hypersport is faster than my Bugatti Veyron baby." Lesley said as she flipped her hair.
"Hi Lesley! Hi Fanny!"
Lesley and Fanny looked at who greeted them and they saw Karina who was walking towards them.
"Hi!" Both Lesley and Fanny greeted back.
"Oh, so this is your new car huh?" Karina said as she looked at Lesley's new car, "I heard it's the rising Drag Racer King who challenged you."
Lesley's forehead knotted, "Wait, what?"
"Haven't you heard about him? He hasn't lost a race also, just like you. Not to mention that he only started a month ago. He even beat Lancelot."
"For real?" Lesley exclaimed.
She couldn't believe it. Lancelot was next to hers, he only lost one race and that was against her.
She couldn't believe that Lancelot lost to an amateur, whoever it was.
Now, that picked Lesley's interest. She knew she shouldn't take this race as an easy one. She should take this race seriously.
"Oh, I think he's here." Karina said as she motioned the two to look at a certain direction.
Lesley looked at her back, and her eyes widened as she saw the car that was coming.
The most expensive car in the world with only nine cars that were made. The car that she wanted but she was late to buy it. Lamborghini Veneo Roadster.
"Holy shit. That was a superb car." Fanny exclaimed, "You wanted that car Lesley right?"
"Yeah." Lesley nodded, not taking her eyes from the car.
"Then that Drag Racer King must be a big time. You should take this race seriously Les." Fanny warned her.
"I know."
The car stopped, several meters away from them. Many were whistling as they saw the car. Of course, all of them knew that car. It was everyone's dream car, well for people who loves cars.
The door opened, and they saw a man stepped outside the car.
Lesley narrowed her eyes as she saw a sight of him.
Gusion Paxley! She thought as she clenched both of her fists.
He brushed his hair as he walked towards them, that made women screamed as he did that.
Well, the looks of Gusion Paxley is not a joke. Many women were swooning just a sight of him.
Except for Lesley Vance.
Oh, she knew how jerky he was.
She was done swooning to him before. She already woke up in reality.
"Hi sexy." Gusion greeted her with a smirk on his face.
She gritted her teeth, "What do you think are you doing?"
He cocked his head as he looked innocently at her, as if he was really innocent. "Hmm, drag racing?"
"Douchébag." Lesley spatted.
He smirked, "Are you afraid that you might lose, my sexy girlfriend?"
Lesley felt her anger rushed to her head, "I'm not your girlfriend you jerk! Not anymore!" She shouted as if she was going to explode in anger.
"Nope." Gusion said as he made a popping sound, "We haven't ended our relationship so basically you are still my girlfriend."
"Excuse me? The last time I checked, I slapped the hell out of you and walked away from our unreal relationship." She glared at him.
"Well, I didn't agree for us to break so you're still my girlfriend."
Lesley shouted in frustration. She wanted to kill the man in front of her with her bare hands. While the brunet was watching her with amusement written in his eyes.
Well, for him, she looked hotter when she was mad.
Lesley flipped her hair as she placed a hand on her hips, "Fine, let's end this bullshit. If I win this race, get out of my life. Never... ever come near me within fifteen meters of radius."
"Deal." Gusion smirked as he went near her, grabbing her by her waist as he pulled her closer to him, "But if I win, you have no other choice but to accept me in your life, my vixen girlfriend."
Lesley felt a tingling sensation while their bodies were so close. But then she shook her head and pushed him with all her might.
"I'm not a type of woman who loves recycling a trash like you Paxley."
Gusion didn't say thing, but Lesley noticed that pain registered on his eyes but he blinked then it was gone.
"Because you didn't even let me explain." Gusion said just enough for her to hear.
She stopped on her tracks, but she chose to ignore what he said and went in to her car.
They both got on the starting line as they saw Layla, standing in front and holding the flag up.
Lesley stepped on the gas the moment Layla held down the flag.
She saw Gusion's car, still on the starting line as she started off.
=====
Lesley was almost halfway to finish the race, but she still didn't see Gusion's car behind her.
Did I really hurt him with what I said earlier? She thought.
She felt guilty but she immediately erase the thought.
The pain he gave me was so much more. What I said earlier was nothing compare to the pain I've felt before.
Lesley didn't notice but she was slowing down her car.
She came back to her senses when a car made an overtake to her, and stopped in front of her.
She immediately stepped on the brake and she released a sigh of relief for she didn't clash to the car.
But her anger rose when she saw the car.
She made her car turned to left but the car blocked her. She turned to right but again, the car blocked her.
An angry vein popped to her forehead and she blew her horn continuously.
He was really getting on my nerves.
Since Gusion's car didn't have a roof, Lesley saw that he was looking at her and waved his forefinger, a gesture saying she couldn't pass.
She made her window down, "What the fuck do you want jerk?"
"You have a had mouth there baby."
She hissed, "If you think I'll get out of my car then you're wrong."
"Then I'll make you."
Lesley didn't have the time to react as she saw him jumped from his car and went to her, opening the her car door as he pulled her out.
"Lesley, I–"
"Please Gusion. If you have a plan to hurt me again, just please let me go." Lesley said as tears prickled in her eyes.
Looking at his face, the pain she felt before all came back.
They were together for five months ehen she learned that he just made a committment to her just because he used her to make the one he truly loved jealous.
It really hurt her for she loved him so much.
And she couldn't believe that one glimpse of him, the love was still there.
"Lesley, I didn't have any intentions to hurt you. You just misunderstood it all." Gusion said, "I've always been in love you. And I guessed that you heard Claude saying I was just using you to make Angela jealous."
He slowly approached her and held her hand, "I love you. Please believe me."
Lesley sobbed, "Don't lie to me anymore Gusion. I know you don't."
"I love you. I can do anything just for you to believe me."
She shook her heard, refusing to listen to him.
Gusion sighed as he cupped her face, leaning his forehead to hers.
"I love you and I won't get tired saying that to you until you believe me and give a chance to prove that to you."
She didn't utter a word, she was just sobbing silently. She felt him kissed her forehead and her tears.
Lesley opened her eyes and she saw tears were brimming in his eyes, with love, regrets, and begging for another chance.
And she knew eyes couldn't lie for they were the windows to one's soul.
"Do you really love me Gusion?" She asked him.
He nodded, "I do, I really love you Lesley."
Lesley caressed his cheek, "I love you Gusion." She smiled at him. "Please don't hurt me like that again."
Gusion's eyes widened but she could saw happiness and love were visible in his eyes.
"Thank you. Thank you Lesley. I love you!" He exclaimed as he captured her lips for a kiss.
She smiled between their kisses as she wrapped her arms around his neck.
Lesley felt him smiled also as he snaked his arms around her waist and pulling her closer as he deepened the kiss.
He bit her lower lips as he groaned and lifted her, making her sit on the hood of her car as they continued to kiss.
"I love you." He said between their kisses.
"I love you."
"Be with me for a lifetime?" He asked, their lips were still touching.
"Hmm." She hummed, as if she was having second thoughts to tease me.
"Nevermind." Gusion smirked, as he tightened his hug to her, "I won't let you go anyway. You're stuck with until the end."
Lesley laughed but was stopped because Gusion claimed her lips once again.
And for the first time, both racers reached the finish line at the same time. But what shocked the people most was when Gusion and Lesley went out of their cars, they shared a kiss in front of everyone.
And people realized that their true finish line was their hearts.
