head making my way towards Luke and Nate who were shaking their heads too.
    “Girls…” Nate said with a smile.
    “Yup,” Agreed Luke.
    “I agree,” I said.
    The girls came towards us all laughing as we stood there watching them. I was happy that Penelope was fitting in with them seeing her happy made me happy.
    “Boys who are guys gawking at?” a loud voice boomed from the back of us.
    We turned around to see Jeff the owner of the race track smiling at us in a knowing way. The ladies reached us quieting down in response to Jeff’s presence.
    I spoke up first, “Hey Jeff my man you looking older today?”
    Penelope pinched me but Jeff just laughed, “keep talking shit youngster I will still kick your ass.”
    Penelope giggled making everyone else laugh too as I shook my head giving Jeff a hug.
    “So this is the group who are going to go racing today?” Jeff asked eyeing everyone solemnly.
    “Yea man this is on my girls bucket list,” I said pulling Penelope towards me as she stood there blushing.
    Jeff smiled widely at us like he knew a secret we didn’t know, “Well now who are you Miss Matt’s girl; I reckon I should write this moment down I have never been introduced to any girl in relationship with this ugly piece of shit.”
    Penelope blushed even more but spoke, “Umm I am Penelope and we are not like together together we are just… together…” she looked down blushing as I tightened my hold on her trying to comfort her.
    Jeff just laughed, “Oh honey, I see how this boy is looking at you believe me you are together,” he gave her a wink beckoning us all to follow him into the building.
    The girls all gasped in amazement at the four race cars well me and the boys shared a hell yea look.
    Jeff spoke up, “So there are four cars each of you girls will ride with one of the boys to teach you how to drive it so partner up.”
    Elaina and Penelope both looked at each other probably because we were short one, “Um I have no partner,” Elaina said.
    Jeff smiled, “Oh sorry sweets you will be with my nephew Cole,” I couldn’t help but laugh out loud.
    “Damn man Cole is actually here thought he was too rich to kick it anymore in the slums, “I smiled wider when I heard the voice behind me.
    “Naw man I just didn’t want to kick it with your ugly face anymore plus you know I love to race. So who is my partner?” he looked at all of the girls his gaze lingering a little longer on Elaina who was currently looking down at her clothes in deep thoughts. Huh interesting.

    Cole smiled at her, “Well Elaina it is nice to meet you. So are you ready to kick this assholes ass in racing?”
    She smiled and squeaked out a shy, “yea”
    Janet spoke up next, “Oh my skittles wait a minute are you Cole Morrison of Morrison Records?”

    Penelope’s smile faltered a little but she answered, “Yea, I am their daughter.”

    We raced twice the first time Cole one the second time I won so now it was between Elaina and Penelope as a tie breaker. We gave them a straight line race since it is their first time.
    Penelope looked hot as hell getting ready to race and I couldn’t help but smile at her face. It was a close race, very close, but Elaina won by an inch.
    We got out of our cars Elaina and Penelope hugging and me and Cole giving
