How To Bake A Fighter

Chapter 16: Satan's Spinkles

*Millie*

I got on the bike, slid on my helmet, and rode off in anger, the anger of my carelessness. 'What if someone videotaped me, he could find my whereabouts and then no telling what he will do. I can't let my family get involved with this. I can't let him find me. It took me 7 months to get rid of him after we broke up and I couldn't do that again without Jamie getting suspicious', I ran through my mind as I raced out of town and to Satan's Tail Trail. Satan's Tail Trail is a famous road on the outskirts of this town and a great area for me to practice for my race. The reason it's famous is because it caused fatal automotive accidents in Eisemen County. It is made up of blind corners, sharp curves, and an unruly landscape with a mountain on one side to a dropoff on the other. I stopped at the beginning of the trail, retracing everything twist and turn from memory through my head. As I was trying to remember if Hangman's cliff or S****de swerve came after Fracture Falls, three other bikes pulled up beside me and a familiar voice rang out," What's the matter, mills? Hearing screams of the dead telling you to turn back or don't get lost on the way to the kiddo pool". I turned to see Lucas, Ron, and Tyler on their bikes staring at me curiously. "Nope, sketching turns out in my head. Oh question", I responded. "Yes", Luke smirked. "What comes after Fracture Falls? Is it Hangman's Cliff or S****de Swerve?", I questioned. "S****de Swerve is before it and Hangman's Cliff right after it because you have to go from the cliff to Jeckle's Drop", Ron responded. "Ok thanks. I wouldn't want to make a mistake at 75mph on that trail", I huffed out. "75!!". "Do you have a death wish!" "Why are you driving that fast on that trail". The three yelled at me before simultaneously saying, "Are you tired of living?!". "Hey three amigos. I got this. I did 70 last time without a scratch. I'll be fine", I directed back to all three of them, rolling my eyes. "You're not going to drive that by yourself, especially at that speed", Lucas replied sternly. Who does he think he is?! "I can and I will. Because I don't need a babysitter", I said, poking at his rock hard chest. "You do it and your brother will be notified immediately", he said, grasping my hand that was poking him. "I can follow her to make sure nothing happens", Tyler spoke up after admiring me. "I will follow her and meet you two later", Lucas growled in an annoying way. Great, I sighed.

"Okay then, hotshot. We'll meet you at C&K's (Cathy and Kyle's bakery)", Ron said with a slyish smile. I shot him 'i-why-you're,smiling-like-that-and-that's-not-the-case look. He just shook his head before riding off with Ted. I turned back towards Millie with a questionable look on her face. "What was that?". "What was what?". "That look". "What look?". "Boy test must be the national test of Millie's patience day. That smile Ron had, you moron. What was that about?", she said irritated. "He smiled?", I looked up to the sky like I was searching for something. "What are you doing?", she questioned. "I was-", I looked down towards her to see she moved right next to me looking as well. The light scent of warm vanilla enveloped my nose from her closeness. Her hair gently whipped across her curious child-like face. "What were you looking for?", she turned back towards me with her dark blue eyes shining in the sun like water does in the moonlight. "Um. Pi-pigs flying", I shuddered out, turning to recoil myself after getting hypnotized by her. "Pigs flying?". "Yea-Yeah.*Clears throat* Because that's when that guy will actually smile, it is when pigs fly", I said, trying to come off cool. Her curious face was replaced with a hardened one as she went to her bike without a single word. Oh s**t, I made her angry again. She hopped on her bike before turning towards me and saying, "If you can beat me along this trail, I won't be your a** to a pulp. Deal?", she said before putting on her helmet. Well, at least I will be with her, but then I may never walk again after she beats my a**. Oh what the hell! "Deal, mills", I said before walking my bike beside hers. "OK, the first person there in one piece wins", she said and I agreed. "If you win, you get to beat me. If I win... well that's to be decided", I smirked. "Fine by me", she smirked. "On rev three", she said before looking forward. She revved loudly once. Then it was louder twice. Finally, she rev the loudest on three. Go time baby!
