Race 02. At Midnight

Drifting Hearts

~ 2 weeks later ~

Her alarm went off and she slammed the snooze button harshly, it played "Tokyo Drift" and she never got up the first time it played.

She always gave herself that extra 15 minutes of shut-eye, given her night job. She needed to make sure she had enough sleep to stay awake. It was of utmost importance to her job.

Her alarm was set to 10:30AM, already late in the morning for normal working people.

But she wasn't one of them, she was different, she made her money the easy way. No, she wasn't a working girl.

At least not anymore. Instead, she did what she liked to do and got paid for it.

Her alarm started to play again and she got up this time, jumping out of bed and going to her bathroom. 

She took a quick shower and did her makeup for tonight. She never liked going out without makeup on her face, she didn't want anyone to recognize her but also, she felt more confident when she looked her best.

She pulled on her favorite pair of black jeans, a red strapless top, and a worn-out leather jacket. Strapping on her boots, she left the apartment.

Her favorite car waited for her in the parking lot. It was sleek, of course black, and customized just for her. Her Mercedes C63 AMG was her baby, with additions by her good friends.

Red rims, black leather interior with red trim, and Nos added to the engine. She couldn't wait to drive it every chance she got.

Today, she would have to go to her friends to get her baby fixed up before tonight. She listened to her engine purr to life and she smiled, gripping the steering wheel. This would be a good day.

She pulled up into the shop and climbed out of her car. "Hey Mia." She greeted the girl with a kiss on the cheek.

"Hey, Aria. What can we do for you today?" She asked as a well-built man walked out, wiping his hands that had oil on them.

"In another race tonight, Aria?" He asked her, going up to his girl and kissing her before giving Aria a hug.

"Yup. Can you fix up my baby for tonight?" Aria asked him.

"Sure. What do you need?" He asked, his arm around Mia and they approached Aria's baby.

"I need the Nos to be filled again, and the usual, Hyeongkon sunbae." Aria told him and he chuckled.

"You're the one in the winner's circle. I'm the hoobae now." Hyeongkon told her, taking her keys and letting Mia take Aria upstairs.

The two girls giggled as they headed off together, leaving Hyeongkon to work on the car.

Mia gave Aria a bottle of beer and took one out for herself. "So, guess what I heard." Mia asked her.

"What? Is it about tonight?" Aria asked back.

"Yup." Mia said with a smirk on her face. "There's been some newbies going around asking how the race works."

"Really? I never noticed." Aria said.

"That's because you're too busy racing." Mia rolled her eyes at her.

"I'm sorry I like driving my baby." Aria retorted to her. "Anyway, what about these newbies?"

"They're supposed to show up tonight. Minwoo has already called dibs on racing them." Mia told her.

"Minwoo is just trying to er them out of their money. He's a greedy little ." Aria remarked, before taking another swig of her beer.

"That's true. But I just thought I would give you a heads up." Mia told her.

"For what? So I can decide to train them or something? Please. I would only do that if they're worth the time." Aria said, rolling her eyes. "And nobody is worth that kind of time."

"You never know. I think oppa is done with your car so get out of here." Mia said, kicking Aria out of her house.

"Bye, unni." Aria waved with a smirk on her face.

"Yeah, yeah. Be safe and see you tonight." Mia said dismissively.

Hyeongkon threw Aria the keys and grinned, "Could you try not to use so much Nos this time?" He taunted.

"Tell that to Xiah." Aria gave them a salute before pulling out of the shop and heading to the spot.

"What should we do, hyung?" Ricky asked as they stood in front of the hospital ward.

"We need to get the money." CAP said.

"Any ideas?" Niel asked.

"I've heard rumors." L.Joe said.

"Spill." CAP urged.

Chunji nudged him and L.Joe sighed before nodding, "It's just rumors but I heard that people race for money every Friday night by the abandoned warehouse." 

"How much can we get?" CAP asked.

"As much as we want, there's no limits on bets as long as you can put up the money. Starting bet is $5k." L.Joe answered.

"We already owe the hospital money, how are we going to come up wih $5k???" CAP asked him.

"There's a program.." He answered sheepishly.

"You've already looked into this.." CAP said softly.

"I've considered our options." L.Joe said.

"What's the program?" Ricky asked.

"You can get a loan for the first $5k as long as you win within your first three races." Chunji answered.

"You two went together to find this out?" Niel asked.

"Yes. This is the best option we have left." Chunji told them.

"Okay. But where can we get a car?" CAP questioned, "That's the one thing you forgot."

The other boys sighed in disappointment, that was something they had forgotten to think about.

"We can all drive. But none of us have cars." CAP reminded them.

 "Maybe we can try see if there's Sunho hyung's old car?" Ricky suggested.

"He has a point, all we need a car. And a driver. Everything else after that we can do what we want." Niel said excitedly.

"Let's go home and look in the garage." CAP said firmly and everyone else followed after him.
