Okay, so, even though nobody said that I should continue this story, I did anyways. So there. Let me know what you think about it. Comments, as well as constructive criticism, are always welcome, but flames are not.
It was a long day at school. For some reason, I couldn't stop thinking about Rachel. I was supposed to stay after school, to get help in English, but I decided to go home instead. My brother had to work right after school, so he would need to hurry home. If I took my time, I could miss the car, and by the time I got home, he would be gone to work.
As luck would have it, my last class had a substitute, so he kept us after the bell rang, to tell us that he was very disappointed in our behavior. By the time I finally got outside, my brother, as well as our car was nowhere to be seen. I started the walk home, and saw Rachel standing next to some guy's car. I think his name was Tim, or something. I knew that this guy used his car to impress all of the girls, and always bragged about what he did with the girls he had "impressed". I went over to where they were, and started to talk with Rachel.
"Hey, what the hell are you doing, Ian?" He asked me.
"Just saying hey to Rachel." I said.
"Yeah, well, why don't you get out of here. I'm trying to show her my awesome car." He said, with a smirk.
"Oh, you mean this car, huh? The one you're always bragging about? So, what's it got?" I asked. I knew that his car had nothing special, and I was determined to make him look like a dumbass.
"Oh, you know, racing clutch, beefed up air intake, brand new, top of the line fuel injection system, and best of all, nos." he said, thinking that I would be impressed.
"Sure, it does, Tim," I said, smirking, "So why don't you pop the hood, and let me take a look?" I knew I had him.
"W-well, umm, I need to do some work on it, so, how about another time?" he said. He had a worried look in his eye. He had told a bunch of his buddies about how he tricked girls with his car, and I had over heard it. He made his friends promise not to tell. He must have thought I would never call his bluff.
"Oh, really," I said, "well, you could still show us your nos system, couldn't you? I mean, your door is open, just show me the tanks." I knew I had him.
"I don't want to show you." He said, nervously. "Well, I want to see them Tim." Rachel said.
I decided to show Tim for the phony he was at that moment. I pushed him out of the way, and looked in his car.
"I don't see any nos tanks in here, Tim." I said, climbing out of his car.
On the way out, I pulled the hood release lever. I walked to the front of his car, and opened the hood.
"Wow, Tim. Amazing engine. All stock parts," I said, slamming the hood.
