Revved Up. [closed]

Hailee sighed as she counted her tips at the end of the day, her head was aching and the bills were piling up again. She knew the answer to her problems, it was obvious to anyone what it was but she only resorted to it if she had to. The last thing she needed was to end up arrested; she'd never get her daughter back from her ex. He'd make it a point to see her as unfit by the courts - she'd never even get to see her. Pulling out her phone she sighed a little calling Mina to see if she could get her a spot in the next race. A couple grand and she'd be set for a while, her rent wasn't too bad; her job covered that but everything else - including Isabel's ballet, piano lessons, and daisies scouts were putting her behind on electric.

Raine didn't worry about much, he pulled on his jeans leaving them unbuttoned as he walked to the kitchen, he grabbed a bottle of water and drank half of it without even thinking about it. He looked at the cable box and sighed, another day he'd practically slept away. It's not like he had many plans, his job consisted of racing twice a week and he never lost.

Mina walked downstairs, hearing Danny and Raine in the kitchen talking about something. The three of them had been roommate for what seemed like forever. She walked in, "Hey assholes." She said, smiling as the two looked at her. She looked down at her phone as it went off and answered it, "What's up?" She asked as she opened the fridge, hearing Hailee. "Of course just show up here tonight around nine." She said, frowning as Raine took the milk from her for his cereal. She glared at him as he used what was left before she slapped his arm, hearing him laugh. "Hailee I will call you back I have to hurt an asshole named Danny." She said. She hung up, "You are a dick." She said as she went to take his food from him.

Danny sat in the kitchen, looking up as Raine walked in. "About time your lazy ass got up." He teased his friend. He looked over when Mina came down talking to someone. He chuckled as he used all the milk. He pulled away from her as she reached for his cereal, "No mine go away." He said, holding it out of her reach while eating it. He looked at Raine, "You racing tonight?" He asked as he watched Mina go to the fridge to find something else. He noticed Raine checking her out as she did so.

Raine shrugged a little as he finished off the bottle of water, "I don't know yet, depends on the competition. Hailee is racing?" he said raising a brow. A lot of people knew her, she was young but had good potential but only tended to race when she needed the money. "I'll egg them on to put more money in the pool so she can win it all," he thought of the dark haired girl kind of like a sister and he'd do anything to make sure that she didn't need for much even if it meant kind of cheating. His eyes glanced over Mina but he tore his eyes away, "I'll think about it, I already raced this week,"

Getting a confirmation that there would be a race tonight was all she needed, she walked out to her car and added some fresh oil and went to gas up. It wouldn't do well to run out midway through a race like some had while racing her, she checked all the fluids then nodded when she felt they were acceptable before heading home to get ready.

Danny nodded, "That is a good point." He said. He thought about Hailee then looked at Mina, "You arent racing tonight." He said. "We need Hailee to win so you can wait til next time." He told her, watching her roll her eyes. Danny got up, "I'm going out to the garage." He said as he got up and left then there.

Mina sighed as she looked at Raine, "Well this sucks." She said as she sat at the table. She liked racing but she understood that Hailee needed the money more. She looked at Raine, "You really think you can get people to bet more?" She asked him.

He nodded a little,"I'm sure of it," he said as he looked at her, "Egg them on a bit if all the car bet around two thousand she'll be set for months," he said as he looked at her shrugging. "I don't know why she doesn't race full time she could quit that job of hers," he sighed a bit, part of him wished she would join their little crew so they could win even more but he knew she had her morals against it.

Mina nodded, "I dont think she would ever do that. Most people dont like to race all the time. Plus she things of it as a bad thing." She said shrugging. Mina made herself some toast and put some butter on it. Hopefully we can have her win." She said.
