_{“fine, didn’t suspect a thing” Hannah told him, fiddling with one of the frayed rips on her jeans. She knew she wasn’t going to let anything like what had happened happen again, and he seemed to be very conveniently avoiding eye-contact. Hannah would have believed that he hadn’t felt anything in that moment if she hadn’t seen the look on his face afterwards. It had been pretty obvious. Grabbing her phone out of her pocket, Hannah quickly distracted herself with a text message. “Is that all?” she asked him, a slight hint of annoyance in her voice.}

_{Hannah needed to focus on her races and the upcoming tournaments ahead of her, not some boy. Their little game would be fine, seeing as though the days the game was scheduled to run wouldn't clash with any of her races. She had received her top tier placement invitation, which means she’d be entered in all 13 races, a chance at winning big time. People came from all over the continent to watch these races, it was rather a big deal in their little community. Hannah knew she’d have to really step up her game if she was going for first place. She didn’t doubt that with enough training and practice, she would definitely stand a good chance at winning the thing, the top three placements at the very least.}

_{Hannah’s eyebrow raised ever so slightly as his smirk. Here she was thinking they were going to go back to acting like total strangers, as if they’d just met but guess not. She wasn’t going to complain about it of course, but it was a surprise, to say the least. Hannah rolled her eyes, smiling slightly, “I would never, I don’t wanna stay too long, can’t have you falling in love with me” she teased, a smug look on her face. Turning towards him more, she slid her leg onto the table, her ankle tucked underneath the underside of her knee.}

_{Hannah leaned over quickly, snatching the pen from his hand. Flicking the capped end against her thigh, she watched him carefully, unsure if it was too soon to be making jokes like that. Hannah didn’t know if she should bring up the incident from earlier, it didn’t seem like he was all that bothered about it so it might be a waste of time if she did. She didn’t even know if she necessarily wanted to talk about it in the first place, but there wasn’t much point in stressing over it, she knew nothing was going to happen.}

_{Hannah tapped her pen impatiently against her book, staring at the clock on the wall. Her jaw was clenched and her patience thinning. There were only minutes until she could finally leave and get home, ready for tonight’s’ activities, whatever they were. Hannah knew the game between Sergio and herself was scheduled to be tonight, but she still hadn’t’ decided on what she was going to make him do, or what question she’d need as a backup if he chose that option. Hannah doubted he was going to, but she needed to have a backup just in case he did.}

_{Hannah saw somebody turn and give her a dirty look, likely because of her being annoying to practically everyone in the room. Obviously, nobody was brave enough to say anything, keeping their face and ego intact, but people kept glaring at her. Raising her eyebrow at the student, Hannah looked back at the clock. She waited until the last moment, before packing away her book and pencil case. Swinging her bag over her shoulder, she got up out of her seat just as the bell rang. The hallways filled with students, Hannah quickly walked to her spot in the carpark.}

_{Hannah got in, flicking the engine on and quickly pulling out of the parking lot. She knew she was being stupid the moment muscle memory took her and she raced out of the driveway and onto the streets, her sunglasses holding her hair out of her hair. With a small grin, she got home, with a sigh of relief. Hannah had a few hours to kill before she would have to get ready for the night. She sat down on her bed, pulling her laptop out of her bag. With Netflix opened up on the screen, Hannah finally relaxed, waiting.}

_{Hannah had been spending the last couple hours just browsing through her social media, one movie or another playing in the background. She had returned just to her room, a towel wrapped around her, hair wet after she got out the shower when she heard her phone vibrate on her bedside table. Frowning slightly, Hannah picked it up, her confusion evaporating as she recognized the contact as Sergio. It was odd, seeing as though they hadn’t talked since the day of the Police interviews with the Principal. Hesitating for a moment, she thought, Hannah decided on her task for him.}

_{Texting back to him, she sent him the address of the docks, where she does most of her racing meetups. It would be a good place to meet first, depending on where their tasks would need to be. Hannah didn’t know if the task he was going to give her would need to be in a certain place, but she knew his didn’t, as long as the place wasn’t some abandoned warehouse in the middle of absolutely nowhere. She walked to her wardrobe, grabbing a pair of jeans and a black hoodie before throwing them onto her bed for later.}

_{Hannah sat on the floor in front of the full-length mirror, doing her makeup and straightening her hair after it had been blow-dried. The combination of the straightener and the blow-dryer making it straight and soft but thick and airy. It wasn’t exactly the look she was going for but it would have to do, grabbing her black boots and her phone, Hannah left. Locking the door behind her, she got into her car, turning on the engine and making her way to the docks. She soon arrived and got out of her car, leaning against the hood waiting for him.}

_{Hannah let herself enjoy the drive, it wasn’t too far away but it was far enough to enjoy the scenery racing past her, even if there was barely enough light to see in the first place. She was almost disappointed when she arrived, but soon remembered why she was here in the first place. The Game. Hannah had no idea what to expect with this game, especially with this new additional twist that Sergio had added in earlier on. She knew he’d have plenty of ridiculous questions lined up, why he’d want to know, was completely beyond her considering everything.}

_{Hannah parked her car, grabbing her phone. She had seen his car, so at least she knew he was already here, which was a plus. For once, she wouldn’t be waiting around for him, it’d be the other way around. Hannah was surprised he had even agreed to come here, she doubted her had even known about the place, let alone been here before. It had been kept on the downlow ever since it was declared the official meetup for all racing meetings and/or parties. Nobody wanted to be the one who let lip about it and now it’s public.}

_{Hannah got out of the car, shoving her phone and hands into her pockets. It wasn’t particularly cold, but the eerie silence was enough to make her shiver. She looked around, frowning a little. Soon enough, she spotted Sergio, near the edge of the Dock. For a moment, she considered pushing him into the water, but that’d be mean, hilarious, but mean. Jogging over to him, Hannah nudged his shoulder, standing next to him. The view was gorgeous, no doubt about it, but there was a weird etherealness to it tonight. Whether it was from the comforting silence of the Docks, or the fact that she was here with Segio, Hannah didn't even really want to know anymore, knowing it'd just be odd. “So tough guy, what do you got for me?” She asked him, staring out into the water.}
