Mason's

POV

"I knew I wasn't going to like this," I said when Torres told me where we were going and what it was going to be about.

"Oh common. Don't be a buzz killer. Just go with the flow," he replied.

"Go with the flow? But it's illegal. I've never done something illegal in my life before," I insisted stubbornly.

"There's always a time for everything. Maybe it's time for you to do something fun and worth the adrenaline rush. It will be exciting, I promise," he said. I wore my shoes and my jacket. I didn't want to go but Mady was the one who suggested it and I knew Lexi would definitely be going with her. I couldn't let them go to such a place all by themselves. I would be restless throughout the entire night.

"Fine. But just this once. After this, we won't go to such a place ever again. That is, if we don't get caught," I muttered.

"Think positive thoughts. We won't get caught," he declared firmly.

"I'm just being realistic," I retorted. He sighed.

"Let's go. We don't want the ladies waiting out in the cold for us," he said. We both walked out of our room towards the parking lot. "Hold on. Why am I always the one driving? Why can't you drive?" he asked stretching out the keys towards me.

"Have you forgotten I will be the one to drive you all back when you are drunk?" I inquired. His eyes widened.

"Right. What would we have done without you?" he asked with a smirk. He suddenly became quiet as he fixated his gaze on one spot. I turned towards the direction of his unwavering attention and my gaze met with Mady's. She was wearing shorts that showed off her thighs and a shirt that exposed her cleavage. I frowned and turned towards Torres whose mouth was hanging open. He was almost drooling.

"Are you checking my sister out?" I asked jolting him out of his trance.

"Absolutely not. I'm definitely not checking her out," he quickly denied it.

"You better not be," I mumbled. Torres and Mady, I just couldn't picture those two together. Torres was my best friend and we've all been friends since our childhood but I didn't want a situation where something would happen between them and they would become hostile towards each other. It would be disastrous for us all and our friendships but Mady was not helping matters with those shorts. I could tell she had an effect on him. I just hoped they don't work towards it.

If I thought Mady's clothes exposed too much then I was mistaken. Rachel's was worse. It looked like she wasn't clothed at all and Lexi, hers was just like Mady's.

"Why are you all dressed like this?" I inquired with a frown when they finally walked towards us. Mady giggled.

"I knew you were going to say that. We were just teasing you. We all have jackets," she said bringing out her jacket from her bag. Lexi and Rachel also brought out theirs and wore it over their clothes. "Much better?" Rachel asked as she laughed. I sighed in relief. For a moment there, I was wondering how many men we would have to fight off.

"Can we go? The night's not getting any younger," Torres said. They all nodded and got into the car. Lexi didn't meet my gaze once till she got into the car. I got in too and Torres started the car. He inputed the address into the GPS before we zoomed off. We arrived soon enough and packed our car. There were different colourful sport cars lined up on the starting line for the beginning of the race. The car race competition was a sprawling racetrack nestled on the outskirts of the city. The anticipation in the air was palpable. The track, illuminated by a network of floodlights, came alive with the hum of engines and the chatter of excited spectators.

"This is still illegal right?" I whispered to Torres surprised by the whole lot of students that showed up.

He laughed. "No one follows the rules again Mason. Just unwind and have fun tonight. Have some alcohol too."

"I'm not drinking," I replied. There were lots of girls dressed in much more revealing outfits. One of them called out to Torres but he refused by gently shaking his head. I stared at him in surprise.

"Did you just refuse a girl?" I asked in surprise.

"I didn't come here for girls today Mason. Believe it or not, I'm not about that life anymore," he replied. Well, that was new.

The evening breeze carried the faint scent of gasoline and the promise of adrenaline. Rows of colorful tents and food stalls lined the perimeter, offering everything from cotton candy to sizzling burgers, adding to the festive atmosphere. I could also see the bottles of alcohol lined up.

"That's what I'm talking about," Torres cheered walking towards the alcohol stall. He grabbed a bottle and a couple of shot glasses before heading back to us.

"What if someone here recognizes you and takes a picture?" I inquired. He smiled.

"Everyone here came to have fun. No one is bothered by another's presence besides if someone did do that, we would be in trouble together. Like you said, this is illegal after all," he smirked. He beckoned towards Mady, Lexi and Rachel that had walked a bit far

away.

"Cheers to a fun and exciting night," Mady cheered as they all clinked glasses. They all clinked glasses and drank again and again. It was now pitch dark. Loud music blasted through the speakers. The atmosphere was filled with chatter, laughter and cheers. As the race began, students gathered in the grandstands, cheering on their favorite teams with fervor. The roar of engines filled the night, drowning out all other sounds. After the girl standing in the middle of the cars with a checkered flag waved it, the cars streaked by, their headlights cutting through the darkness like shooting stars. Torres, Mady, Lexi and Rachel were no longer anywhere in sight. I lost sight of them all in the crowd.

Some students waved banners, while others clutched their smartphones, capturing every thrilling moment to relive later. The air was electric with the thrill of competition, and the they all reveled in the rush of it all.

"Hey handsome," a girl said walking towards me. She slurred on her words and stared at me like a piece of meat. I ignored her.

"The race is fun right? I noticed you from a mile away," she continued with a smile. I sighed out of frustration. This wasn't fun at all. I was biting my tongue to resist blurting out a rude remark. Like how her face and neck didn't match due to the make-up and the red lipstick stain on her teeth.

"Do you know what else would be fun? Us together. We could do so many fun things in that tent all over there," she said with a wink.

"Babe, were you waiting for a long time?" Lexi asked walking towards us with a smile. I glanced around wondering who she was speaking to. Was she referring to me as babe? She hugged me with a smile.

"I'm sorry I arrived late. You missed me right?" she asked placing a chaste kiss on my cheeks. I caught whiff of her rose scent.

"I missed you," I replied even though I had no idea what was going on here. The girl in front of me scoffed and walked away angrily after giving Lexi a dirty glare.

"And that is how to drive desperate girls away. You have my lipstick mark on your cheek. Everyone would think you are taken. That's how this type of places work. You are safe for tonight. Thank me later," she said turning around to walk away but I held her hand and pulled her towards me.

"Babe? Were you jealous? Was that why you staked your claim on me?" I asked.

She scoffed in disbelief. "Jealous? You looked lost so I helped you out."

"I don't think so. I think you were definitely lost, "I replied picking her up in my arms.

"What do you think you are doing?" she asked in shock.

"Relax. I won't do anything you don't want me to," I said gently putting her down on one of the cars. She looked visibly relaxed.

"See? I don't bite," I said calmly.

"Why am I here?" she inquired.

"I should be asking you that. You came to me remember?" I asked nudging her thighs open with my hand and stepping in between them. "Anyone can see us," she whispered.

"That's the fun part right? The thrilling excitement of getting caught," I replied. I could perceive the alcohol on her breathe.

"You are drunk again," I stated.

"How are you sure? We won't know right? Unless you figure it out yourself," she responded.

"How do I do that?" I inquired staring at her lips. She licked them softly.

"I'm guessing you know the answer," she replied staring at me seductively.
