Beyond the Chequered Flag

Updated! Chapter 6: Flammable - Read Here

Sneak Peek:

Alcohol usually numbs the senses and quells the fires of 'fucking pissed off'. Alcohol is usually an easy way out of his own head. Tonight, alcohol is losing that battle and Billy is spiralling. It had been going so, so well. For the first time in a long time he had felt content, the walls he'd carefully constructed around himself had begun to lower by his own permission.

It was going well until the trill of an incoming message emitted from Harrington's pocket. Billy had to watch Steve's face, illuminated by his phone's screen, morph from mild irritation to smiling softly. At that time, he could have slipped outside and Steve would have been none the wiser. He didn't need to ask to know that it was Steve's girlfriend. Of course it was.' It's complicated'. Sure. Looks like it.

Chapter 4 of Beyond the Chequered Flag is now up!

Throughout the entire presentation, Steve noticed the Renault driver seems subdued - almost annoyed which doesn't make a lick of sense. You've just won some more points damn it! He wants to yell at the screen. They're presented their trophies and when it's Billy's turn to talk to the presenters, the camera zooms in close. The smile is strained and tight, false. Steve knows this because he's perfected that same smile. Winning a race is a glorious feeling but sometimes his accomplishments are over-shadowed by the fact that he has no one besides Bob and Joyce to share them with. No Nancy and no parents.

On the screen, Billy's blue eyes flick up and the look is so intense, that Steve's breaths hitches. It's like Billy is looking right at him, solely him.

"Harrington."

Wait, what?

Chapter Update - Beyond the Chequered Flag

"Ohh. Have you been to London before?"

"Nope."

"Wait, so why - shit, you better not get us lost. Do you think we'll see the Queen?"

Billy laughs at that and shakes his head. "First off, I won't get us lost, asshole and I don't think the Queen of England wanders around London like - we're not going to run into her in fucking Starbucks."

Steve is laughing now, the mental image is too much. "Hey, I wonder if she'd get the barista's to write 'Queen' or 'Elizabeth' - wait, or or, 'Lizzy'?"

"You're an idiot." Billy says and when he glances at Steve, his stomach does that stupid whirly thing it does when he wins a race. Steve's smiling openly and it reaches his eyes, making them glisten. And now... that smile is directed at him and Billy needs to concentrate on road again before another crash hits the headlines.

Chapter 2 is up!!

Preview:

Two days pass. Two days since Steve stood atop the podium and accepted the trophy for coming first place. Two days since Billy Hargrove launched an offical complaint to the FIA and now the victory is under contention. Social media lapped the drama up, split in their opinions on just what had occurred that day on the track. It certainly cast a shadow on Steve's triumph and instead of the post-race interviews reflecting on his win, they focused on the contraversy. By Tuesday evening he was already sick of it all. Of course he has watched the footage over and over, maintaining that he in no way sabotaged Billy's race. He also watched his interviews. Despite being know to have a hot-temper, Billy had clearly rehearsed his responses but the underlying rage was evident underneath every accusation - at least to Steve. It wasn't the first time he'd been on the receiving end of Billy's moods but now it's getting ridiculous.
