Yerin was truly something else, with her harsh words and blunt opinions. But she was the type to dish it, and he was the type to send it right back. At least, with her he learned how to play her little games. He wasn’t about to be feeding from the palm of her hand but he would go along with her, let her show him the ropes of her underground lifestyle. So, he was like her little toy and if she wanted him to change his clothes and act a certain way to “fit in”, he would. Without much complaint, too.
It shouldn’t have come as much as a surprise either that she wasn’t going to let him drive. Once his dark hues had landed on her vehicle, he felt adrenaline already pumping through his veins with excitement. God, how he’d love to get his own hands behind those wheels. “If only you knew what I could handle. You’re a tease, Yerin. Ever heard that before? Ah, don’t even answer.” He’s flashing her a smirk as he had climbed in on the passenger side.
Nervous was a quality he always possessed, but he was oddly enough comfortable as they approached the scene. It was a mad house almost, loud music blasting and voices carrying on through the night. A scene he had only been to a few times with Yerin, and a scene he wasn’t quite used to yet. Nonetheless, fingers are brushing through styled, chocolate brown hair to push the strands from out of his eyes so that he wouldn’t miss a second of what was unraveling here.
“You don’t have to worry about me getting into trouble, sounds like that’s my line for you. But, if trouble finds us.. I can handle my own.” He was still sporting a grin, wanting to reassure her but if anything she was probably going to be the handful of the two of them. At least that he could say for certain. But this was, again, Yerin’s scene. What she said, he took to heart. He knew these were a bunch of rich kids, snobby people who he didn’t quite belong with. It wasn’t his type of people in general, but he knew how to coat his words with honey and tell anyone what they wanted to hear.
Kai had his hand on the door handle, a sharp breath taken once a hand is planted firmly on his thigh. Of course. It was always a bit of surprise but he’s reminded that this is her and quite honestly, he didn’t mind. The moment it was there, it was gone. Just like the tease she was.
“Pick up a girl here? God, I don’t think I want any of the diseases that come with them. Least of your concerns, princess.” He was laughing, quick to slip out of the vehicle now and round to the front. He was now suitably dressed, partially thankful he hadn’t shown up in the casual attire he was sporting earlier. He shrugs, his dark hues flickering around to survey the rest of the scene. “I think.. I need a drink already and to see what this is all about.” // @kkxai
❛ that’s what they all say then a cute girl winks at that and they are puppy dogs. just keep on your toes . ❜ these girls had their trick and most of those tricks involved emptying any poor soul’s pocket one way or another . but that was for him to see as she hummed out , lingers running through her golden tresses as the scent of car oils and smoke filled the air . ❛ a drink ? go for it . i’ll be back . gotta give in the cash and pink slip . ❜ there’s adrenaline in her veins as she gives him a quick wave . ❛ the makeshift bar is over by the dunes . ask for rico , he’ll give you good drinks . he’ll be the tall drink of handsome with the scar on his right eye . ❜ probably the only nonshitty human that roamed these parts of the underground scene . not to speak ill although her tongue was known to be sharp , he was one of the few that couldn’t be brought by bribes to do ungodly deeds . ❛ don’t miss me too much , kai. ❜ there’s a subtle smirk upon her tiers before she departs from him , gives him the space to learn the surroundings a little .
the transaction wasn’t a hassle , years being in these scenes made her known and most didn’t dare to really annoy her knowing her temper . now, all there was to do was to wait --- the race would not start until another hour or so and she had secured her spot in the first place position from the last time . but that wasn’t her goal now as she looked for a certain eyesore that she had left on his own .
❛ looks like you’re having a blast . ❜ amusement dances on the tip of her tongue as she finds who she had been looking for . not that it was a hassle , his scent was something that zephyr had long remembered just in case of emergencies . ❛ anything fun happened while i was gone ? ❜ question drips from her tiers , letting her hands shove themselves into the barely there pockets of her makeshift shorts . eyes staring out to the bonfire that they had started --- music blasting loudly , inhaling the way the mortals enjoyed the events . there was all types of scenes happening ; off to the corners people dealt their drugs , in others ; lewd acts happened away from the lights while the majority of them surrounded the cars that were about to race , checking out equipment they had installed . then there was some that had illegal modifications taking place as they took to chance that the best of the underground mechanic were located in one area . ❛ i have an hour to kill before my race , which you’ll be accompanying me in . ❜ she hums , it wasn’t rare for others to have someone in their car -- while zephyr never did . she figured why not give kai the adrenaline he was looking for .
❛ i got the map for the outline of the race . 40 miles , we’ll be going into the city . ❜ there’s excitement in her voice as she glances up at her company of the night. ❛ they are installing cameras into the cars right now to give a live feed for the crowd . what do you say , are you game ? ❜
