Piston Cup is Mine!

Hey there! I'm Chick Hicks! But you probably know that. Racing is always on my mind but I can always push that aside for a bit. If there's one thing you should really know about me, it's that I'll do whatever I need to do to get a Piston Cup. Haha! Ka-chiga!

((Hi! I was wondering if you don't mind trimming our threads because I'm on mobile and it won't let me, I can't see your responses to the threads. I hope that's okay with you!))

///Oh! I am on Mobil as well at the moment xP But when I log into my laptop tomorrow, I will cut it!///

Chick opened the door and his eyes widen in shock to see Dory standing in front of him, soaking wet from the rain. “Dory, this is- um…” Chick cleared his throat and he slightly frowned, grabbing her wrist and pulling her inside. “It won’t be so gentleman like if I just left you out there.” 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory chuckled and shivered a bit, “I went to go for a swim but then it just began pouring! I got lost because I couldn’t see through the rain and I recognized your name on the mailbox!” Dory’s teeth clattered, “I’m surprised that I remembered your name, though.” Dory chuckled again, warming up slightly.

[hicks-86]

"I was about to ask you how you remembered my name." Chick walked over to a closet and slid it open, pulling out a towel. "I got to say, I was not expecting this." He closed the closet with his feet and tossed the towel to Dory. "Oh, and don’t mention any of this to anybody."

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"Why shouldn’t I? Well, who would I tell in the first place?" Dory asked curiously as she dried herself off.

[hicks-86]

"I don’t want anybody knowing that I…" Chick paused and looked down at the floor. "Well, never mind." He looked up at her and offered her to sit on the couch. "You can sit down once you finish drying yourself off. Get comfortable." 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory continued to look at him in curiosity, “You can tell me.” Dory smiled reassuringly as she sat down, folding the towel in her lap.

[hicks-86]

Chick slowly sat down next to her and leaned forward, his elbow resting on his knees. “It’s nothing. Nothing important to worry about, Dory.”

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"Are you sure?" She nudged him gently with her elbow, "you don’t have to if you’re uncomfortable, but I probably will forget anyway if you told me." Dory shrugged simply.

[hicks-86]

Chick smirked and looked at her. “Alright. I just don’t want anybody else to know that Mr. Hicks has a soft side. And I have NEVER treated somebody like this before so specify yourself as…special.” He grabbed the towel that was folded neatly on her lap. “But remember, don’t tell anyone about this.” He added, pointing at her with the towel.

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory laughed hard for a while before taking some breaths to calm herself down, “Why are you afraid of that? It’s okay if you have a soft side! It would make you more popular.” Dory raised an inquiring brow, “Are all famous people like this?” She chuckled.

[hicks-86]

"You can say that. I mean, with people constantly taking pictures of you and recording you secretly, it can be annoying. I try to maintain a certain profile when I go out in public." Chick leaned against the couch and placed one arm behind his head.

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"All you have to do is be yourself. You don’t have to be something that you aren’t." Dory looked around his living area with her eyes, "I’m not exactly sure how you are with the public, I’m getting to know you on a personal level." Dory then looked at him suddenly, "Would that make you, MY biggest fan? I know you wouldn’t do this to any random stranger, right?" A grin spread across her face.

[hicks-86]

"Don’t get too ahead of yourself, Dory." Chick said, squinting his eyes at her. "Now, I just felt bad to leave you alone out there in the cold rain and I didn’t want to be mean." He ruffled up her wet hair with the towel. "And you seemed pretty helpless."

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"I’m not completely helpless, just forgetful is all." Dory chuckled, "you should try it though, go save a cat in a tree and make some positive headlines." Dory chuckled some more at the thought of Chick trying to convince a cat to come down.

[hicks-86]

"Dory…" Chick chuckled. "Come on. Getting a cat down from a tree? Really?" He smirked and covered her head with the towel before leaning back against the couch.

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory pulled off the towel and laughed, “I’m just throwing around ideas!” Dory pondered for a moment for something else that crossed her mind, “Maybe some volunteer work?” She suggested.

[hicks-86]

"Volunteer work, huh?" Chick crossed his arms over his chest and slowly nodded. "Not bad..." He looked at Dory and chuckled. "Some mind you got."

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

((I’m on mobile so sorry that I can’t put a gif!))

Dory gasped and stepped back. She gingerly put her fingers to her lips and glared at Chick, “What was that? Did you just do what I think you did?” She raised a brow in confusion.

[hicks-86]

"What? Can’t handle a kiss from me?" Chick asked and lowered his gaze, biting his bottom lip. 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"Well I’m not exactly used to them." Dory crossed her arms and glanced at Chick.

[hicks-86]

"Then how about we say about changing that, hmm?" Chick raised an eyebrow and placed his hands on his waist. 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory blinked in wonder and shook her head, “No, I don’t know…” Dory shrugged her shoulders uncomfortably. “You seem quite comfortable with that…” Dory raised her eyebrows.

[hicks-86]

Chick shrugged his shoulders. “Eh, I’m lady’s man. I’m cool around pretty ladies like yourself.” He winked at her with a slight chuckle escaping from his lips. 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory stifled a laughter and then smiled pleasantly, “Thank you. That’s nice of you.” Dory looked at Chick deeply before beginning again, “Have you had a really special person in your life before?” Dory asked with curiosity.

[hicks-86]

"Um…no. Not really. I can’t seem to keep a steady relationship." Chick looked into Dory’s eyes for a moment before asking, "What about you?"

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory shrugged her shoulders and looked up, “I can’t remember if I have or haven’t.” She looked back at Chick and half-smiled, “I don’t remember if I’ve been in a relationship in total.”

[hicks-86]

Chick smiled and he tilted his head to the side. “Something tells me that you probably had lots of guys swooning over you.”

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory rolled her eyes playfully, “Not really, I’m too clumsy and forgetful so I just wander about myself. And sometimes that’s okay.” She said contently.

[hicks-86]

Chick stayed quiet for a moment, looking at her. He then sighed softly and shook his head. “I find it a bit hard to believe, Dory.” He stepped closer to her and slowly took her hand with his own. “You’re rare, you know that?”

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory gasped in lightly as he took her hand, but was instantly relaxed afterward. She tilted her head very slightly and have a small smile, “How so?”

[hicks-86]

"You have a great sense of humor, you’re personality is perfect," Chick looked down at their hands as he intertwined his fingers with hers. "And most girls would of left me alone by now."

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory blushed lightly and looked down at their hands as well, “It’s not nice to leave people if you haven’t gotten to know them for who they truly are yet..” Dory said softly.

[hicks-86]

"Yeah, well, try telling that to those girls then." Chick whispered, showing off his perfect white teeth as he smiled. "You’re the first one that has been taking their time to know me. Which is surprising."

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"You’re one of the first people to respect me…I think…" Dory giggled as she rolled her eyes at herself.

[hicks-86]

"It's a start then." Chick grinned as he raised her hand to his lips and pressed a soft kiss onto her hand.

[hicks-86]

"It would be nice to share a couple of drinks with someone tonight." Chick glanced up as he took a quick sip of his drink. "Want one?"

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"Umm…" Dory looked at the drink and then back at Chick, "I don’t drink, but I’m Dory!" Dory…

[hicks-86]

His smile turned into a slight frown and he raised an eyebrow. “What? You never heard of me? Come on!” Chick released her hand and chuckled. “You got to be joking.” 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory twisted her lips to the side and looked down, trying to remember. She slowly shook her head and looked back at Chick, “Nope! Doesn’t ring a bell.” She shrugged, “You said your name was Rick, right?” She tried to make him feel better.

[hicks-86]

"No…" Chick slowly said, looking at her in a confused way. "It’s Chick. Do you have some…memory problem or something…?" He raised his drink to his lips and drank what was left before looking back at her.

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory sighed and nodded her head, “Yeah..you see, I suffer from short term memory loss.” Dory made an embarrassed expression, “Sorry that I got your name wrong.” Dory bit her lip nervously.

[hicks-86]

Chick stared at her for a while before sighing heavily. “I guess I can let it slide.” He took a step closer to her. “Dory, right?” 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory’s eyes widened a bit as he stepped in. She nodded her head quickly, “Yup! You’re right! I see your memory is better than mine!” Dory giggled.

[hicks-86]

He chuckled and slipped his hands into his pant’s pockets. “You seem like a fun girl. Are you sure you don’t want a small drink? It won’t hurt anyone.” 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory eyed the drinks around her and shook her head, “No, I’m alright. I don’t exactly like the taste…” Dory said uncomfortably.

[hicks-86]

Chick leaned back with a look of disbelief on his face. “You don’t what?” He looked at Dory up and down before mumbling, “You must be the first person that I heard saying that.” 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"I live off of water." Dory shrugged nonchalantly, "It isn’t really healthy to be drinking.." Dory made a distasteful expression. She then looked back at Chick and smiled politely, "So, are you here alone?" Dory asked, cocking her head to the side.

[hicks-86]

"Yeah, I am." Chick ran a hand through his messy dark hair. "I was hoping for somebody to show up," He leaned against the edge of the table, grabbing the wine bottle that was behind him. "And then you came along." 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory smiled, “So, you said you were a racer? Right?” Dory furrowed her eyebrows at Chick, “You don’t look like the racer type to me…you look more like a swimmer…” Dory nodded thoughtfully.

[hicks-86]

"A swimmer, huh?" Chick thought for a second, his hands playing with the wine bottle. "Nobody actually told me that before. Is it because of my well built body?" He asked, smiling at her. 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"Well it’s actually because IM a swimmer, and I can see the inner fish in people." Dory chuckled.

[hicks-86]

"Well, I have not touched water for a while. Only place I’ve been on was the racetrack." Chick opened the bottle and poured himself some wine. "I got no inner fish in me, sweetheart." He set the bottle down and grabbed his glass of wine he prepared for himself. "I suppose you spend most of your time swimming in a pool or at the beach?"

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"Definitly! I’m from Australia, actually! Or around that region.." Dory tried to recall, "But I just always remember going to the beach as a kid..that is one of the few things I remember from my childhood.." Dory smiled to herself at the thought, "I guess you were that little boy that was obsessed with racing cars I guess?" She teased.

[hicks-86]

Chick chuckled at her remark. “Yeah. I would always ask my dad to take me to races.” He stared off as memories came to his mind. “I remember always getting speeding tickets when I got my first car. I was never allowed to get behind the wheel again until I was a matured adult.”

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"I was stung by a jellyfish, got stung so hard I kinda passed out." Dory pointed to the slightly faded sting mark on her arm. "I’d worry everyone because I would go so far and swim so fast…I guess I am like a racer like you, except in the water." Dory giggled softly.

[hicks-86]

Chick winced at the sight of her fading scar. "Ouch. That must of been painful." He glanced back at her and raised an eyebrow. "Say, you got to show me your skills in water sometime. I would like that."

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

[hicks-86]

"What? Can’t handle a kiss from me?" Chick asked and lowered his gaze, biting his bottom lip. 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"Well I’m not exactly used to them." Dory crossed her arms and glanced at Chick.

[hicks-86]

"Then how about we say about changing that, hmm?" Chick raised an eyebrow and placed his hands on his waist. 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory blinked in wonder and shook her head, “No, I don’t know…” Dory shrugged her shoulders uncomfortably. “You seem quite comfortable with that…” Dory raised her eyebrows.

[hicks-86]

Chick shrugged his shoulders. “Eh, I’m lady’s man. I’m cool around pretty ladies like yourself.” He winked at her with a slight chuckle escaping from his lips. 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory stifled a laughter and then smiled pleasantly, “Thank you. That’s nice of you.” Dory looked at Chick deeply before beginning again, “Have you had a really special person in your life before?” Dory asked with curiosity.

[hicks-86]

"Um…no. Not really. I can’t seem to keep a steady relationship." Chick looked into Dory’s eyes for a moment before asking, "What about you?"

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory shrugged her shoulders and looked up, “I can’t remember if I have or haven’t.” She looked back at Chick and half-smiled, “I don’t remember if I’ve been in a relationship in total.”

[hicks-86]

Chick smiled and he tilted his head to the side. “Something tells me that you probably had lots of guys swooning over you.”

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory rolled her eyes playfully, “Not really, I’m too clumsy and forgetful so I just wander about myself. And sometimes that’s okay.” She said contently.

[hicks-86]

Chick stayed quiet for a moment, looking at her. He then sighed softly and shook his head. "I find it a bit hard to believe, Dory." He stepped closer to her and slowly took her hand with his own. "You're rare, you know that?"

[hicks-86]

✢

Chick opened the door and his eyes widen in shock to see Dory standing in front of him, soaking wet from the rain. “Dory, this is- um…” Chick cleared his throat and he slightly frowned, grabbing her wrist and pulling her inside. “It won’t be so gentleman like if I just left you out there.” 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory chuckled and shivered a bit, “I went to go for a swim but then it just began pouring! I got lost because I couldn’t see through the rain and I recognized your name on the mailbox!” Dory’s teeth clattered, “I’m surprised that I remembered your name, though.” Dory chuckled again, warming up slightly.

[hicks-86]

"I was about to ask you how you remembered my name." Chick walked over to a closet and slid it open, pulling out a towel. "I got to say, I was not expecting this." He closed the closet with his feet and tossed the towel to Dory. "Oh, and don’t mention any of this to anybody."

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"Why shouldn’t I? Well, who would I tell in the first place?" Dory asked curiously as she dried herself off.

[hicks-86]

"I don’t want anybody knowing that I…" Chick paused and looked down at the floor. "Well, never mind." He looked up at her and offered her to sit on the couch. "You can sit down once you finish drying yourself off. Get comfortable." 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory continued to look at him in curiosity, “You can tell me.” Dory smiled reassuringly as she sat down, folding the towel in her lap.

[hicks-86]

Chick slowly sat down next to her and leaned forward, his elbow resting on his knees. “It’s nothing. Nothing important to worry about, Dory.”

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"Are you sure?" She nudged him gently with her elbow, "you don’t have to if you’re uncomfortable, but I probably will forget anyway if you told me." Dory shrugged simply.

[hicks-86]

Chick smirked and looked at her. "Alright. I just don't want anybody else to know that Mr. Hicks has a soft side. And I have NEVER treated somebody like this before so specify yourself as...special." He grabbed the towel that was folded neatly on her lap. "But remember, don't tell anyone about this." He added, pointing at her with the towel.

[hicks-86]

"It would be nice to share a couple of drinks with someone tonight." Chick glanced up as he took a quick sip of his drink. "Want one?"

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"Umm…" Dory looked at the drink and then back at Chick, "I don’t drink, but I’m Dory!" Dory…

[hicks-86]

His smile turned into a slight frown and he raised an eyebrow. “What? You never heard of me? Come on!” Chick released her hand and chuckled. “You got to be joking.” 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory twisted her lips to the side and looked down, trying to remember. She slowly shook her head and looked back at Chick, “Nope! Doesn’t ring a bell.” She shrugged, “You said your name was Rick, right?” She tried to make him feel better.

[hicks-86]

"No…" Chick slowly said, looking at her in a confused way. "It’s Chick. Do you have some…memory problem or something…?" He raised his drink to his lips and drank what was left before looking back at her.

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory sighed and nodded her head, “Yeah..you see, I suffer from short term memory loss.” Dory made an embarrassed expression, “Sorry that I got your name wrong.” Dory bit her lip nervously.

[hicks-86]

Chick stared at her for a while before sighing heavily. “I guess I can let it slide.” He took a step closer to her. “Dory, right?” 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory’s eyes widened a bit as he stepped in. She nodded her head quickly, “Yup! You’re right! I see your memory is better than mine!” Dory giggled.

[hicks-86]

He chuckled and slipped his hands into his pant’s pockets. “You seem like a fun girl. Are you sure you don’t want a small drink? It won’t hurt anyone.” 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory eyed the drinks around her and shook her head, “No, I’m alright. I don’t exactly like the taste…” Dory said uncomfortably.

[hicks-86]

Chick leaned back with a look of disbelief on his face. “You don’t what?” He looked at Dory up and down before mumbling, “You must be the first person that I heard saying that.” 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"I live off of water." Dory shrugged nonchalantly, "It isn’t really healthy to be drinking.." Dory made a distasteful expression. She then looked back at Chick and smiled politely, "So, are you here alone?" Dory asked, cocking her head to the side.

[hicks-86]

"Yeah, I am." Chick ran a hand through his messy dark hair. "I was hoping for somebody to show up," He leaned against the edge of the table, grabbing the wine bottle that was behind him. "And then you came along." 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

Dory smiled, “So, you said you were a racer? Right?” Dory furrowed her eyebrows at Chick, “You don’t look like the racer type to me…you look more like a swimmer…” Dory nodded thoughtfully.

[hicks-86]

"A swimmer, huh?" Chick thought for a second, his hands playing with the wine bottle. "Nobody actually told me that before. Is it because of my well built body?" He asked, smiling at her. 

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"Well it’s actually because IM a swimmer, and I can see the inner fish in people." Dory chuckled.

[hicks-86]

"Well, I have not touched water for a while. Only place I’ve been on was the racetrack." Chick opened the bottle and poured himself some wine. "I got no inner fish in me, sweetheart." He set the bottle down and grabbed his glass of wine he prepared for himself. "I suppose you spend most of your time swimming in a pool or at the beach?"

[forgetful-fish-deactivated20140]

"Definitly! I’m from Australia, actually! Or around that region.." Dory tried to recall, "But I just always remember going to the beach as a kid..that is one of the few things I remember from my childhood.." Dory smiled to herself at the thought, "I guess you were that little boy that was obsessed with racing cars I guess?" She teased.

[hicks-86]

Chick chuckled at her remark. "Yeah. I would always ask my dad to take me to races." He stared off as memories came to his mind. "I remember always getting speeding tickets when I got my first car. I was never allowed to get behind the wheel again until I was a matured adult."
