Race 29. Looking to the Future
Drifting HeartsIt had taken Sunho a few weeks before the hospital deemed it safe for him to go home, he had to undergo some tests and some physical therapy. He hadn't used his muscles in a long time.
But finally, the entire group of them found the time to go on a picnic together, and Misun and Byunghun were still dating in secret from the midnight track.
"Yah! Don't come over here! I don't want to be infected!" CAP shouted at the couple.
"What are you talking about? We don't have a disease." Byunghun countered.
"But you guys are just too cutesy for me, I don't want to lose my manhood." CAP said, moving farther away from the couple.
Misun laughed as she moved to sit with Byunghun, her back to his chest, his legs on either side of hers. "You're just jealous." She said.
"Yeah right." CAP said rolling his eyes.
"Oh yeah? Who was the one trying to whose number?" She taunted him.
"Shut up." He said, looking away.
"Now, now, Aria, be nice." Sunho told her.
She grumbled softly, "He started it." Byunghun reached for her hand and intertwined their fingers.
"Don't worry about him too much." He said. "He's nothing."
"He's irritating." Misun said angrily.
"It's okay, noona. He is just jealous of you guys, he's been trying to talk to this new girl, but she keeps rejecting him." Ricky said with a grin.
"Yah! Shut up!" CAP shouted at him.
"Never!" Ricky replied.
"Another girl? Who is it? Do we know her?" Misun asked him.
"No! You don't! So you can't talk to her!" CAP shouted at them.
"Awww.. You're no fun." Misun whined sadly.
Sunho sat up straight suddenly, “Wait, Byunghun. Did you ever pay back the $5000 you took to race Minwoo?” Sunho asked him.
“Don’t worry, Andy oppa. I took care of it.” Misun told him.
“I already told you to call me, Sunho.” He gave her a stern look.
“I know, but it’s hard to remember. Andy is short and simple. Which is probably why you picked it as your name to begin with."
“I have something to tell you, Byunghun.” Misun told him.
“What is it?” He asked.
“When you’re good enough to beat me, I’m going to retire.” She said, “I’m tired of being judged on my racing skills because I’m a girl. You are the one who deserves the crown next, so when you’re ready, you can become the next Race King.”
“But you’re the current Queen, I could never take that away from you.” Byunghun said, “You worked hard to get here and you deserve it.”
She tutted, “I do not deserve it forever. There will always be a successor and Andy oppa agrees that you should be the next one. So keep practicing until you can beat me.” She gave him a grin.
He smirked at her, “Fine. I see that I can’t change your mind, I’ll practice hard.” He said with determination.
“I wouldn’t expect anything less.”

Aria walked up to a muscular guy next to a car with a big spoiler, “Hey there, big guy. Nice spoiler you’ve got there. Trying to overcompensate for something?” She teased as she walked by.
The guy grabbed her wrist before she could walk away, “Got something to say?” He growled at her.
She smiled with a fake sweetness at him, “You know what they say. The bigger the spoiler the smaller..” She looked down at his crotch, “Well, you know.” She wrestled her wrist out of his grasp and walked away completely this time.
“Yah! Get back here!” He yelled after her, storming her way.
She approached another racer who was standing by a blue Mitsubishi Lancer, walking right towards him. His arms were extended out to her, welcoming her to him. He hugged her tightly as she smiled and wrapped her arms around his neck.
“Babe. What did you do this time? You only act like this when you’ve stirred up trouble.” He asked her.
She turned to face him, pecked his lips once and looked at him innocently, “Nothing, oppa. I’ve done nothing wrong.”
The guy that was chasing her stopped in his tracks when he reached her. He simply pointed at the other racer and gaped, “Y-You.. Y-You’re…”
The other racer replied, “Yes, it’s me. You must be new, I’m sorry if my girlfriend said something to offend you in any way. He pinched her discreetly, “She’s not known for her tactfulness.”
She jumped in his arms at the action, before playfully burying her face into his neck.
The guy bowed once lowly, “It wasn’t anything. Don’t worry about it.” He stammered before running away.
The other racer turned to Aria, “He didn’t seem to know you babe. How come?” He asked her.
“Because you’re the new King now, L.Joe. You have the crown, all the new people only know of you, I’m just a rumor now. While you’re the real deal.” Aria answered him.
“I still think they should remember you.” He whined, pecking her lips and lingering there.
“I’m still the only Race Queen to have existed.” She said.
“You’re still a Queen,” L.Joe said, “Queen of my heart.”
Aria smacked him once, “Come on, you have to go and protect your crown."
