Speed
The day after Ratchet's date Brick and Gretchen disappeared. I didn’t see them for two days. I thought they finally got the hint and decided to leave me alone. Or they had figured out that I wasn’t worth the trouble because nothing could come from trying to have a relationship with me because it wasn’t going to happen. Whatever the reason they stopped coming by, I was glad. At least that was what my head said. My heart was a completely different story. The stupid thing was hurt that they were gone even knowing it was for the best. I can’t do relationships. Then on day three, I was at the shop doing some work with Jesse and Ricki before today's time trial when Brick came by. He said he was riding with me to the track. That seemed odd to me since I know he loved riding his bike but left the subject alone.
Brick
Catherine ThompsonWhat do you think about Merigold's idea? Do you Speed will get the underlying message Merigold is trying to convey?

Brick Since Speed has a race in four days Viper called a meeting for us to go over a few things at the track and here at the clubhouse. Viper wants to have a party after the race to congratulate Speed no matter how she places and it turns out Casper and a few of his members are going to be in town. Viper invited them to come to the race and even secured tickets for them which I’m surprised and happy to say are almost sold out. At least twenty were taken by our crew and the auto shop. Thor and Merigold are going to close the shop for the day so everyone can be at Speed’s race. The rest is because the manager Jason has been doing some serious advertising about Speed being in this week’s race. He even has one of Speed’s time trials posted on the track's website as well as some pictures of Speed posing by Frankenstein. Since I was there they took the photos I have one on my phone. I couldn’t

Gretchen When I pull in the driveway I just barely have the car in park before Speed jumps out and races into the house. I release a slow breath before unbuckling and getting out. Brick has just pulled in next to me and is getting off his bike as I close my door. I look at him and say “ She is really pissed right now.” He nods “ I figured she might be.” I had a feeling when we left the bar with Speed, Brick had a plan now to find out what it is. “ So what are we going to do?” He smirks. I hate to admit it but I can see why Speed thinks he is sexy when he does it. It doesn’t have the same effect on me as it does her but I understand more. “ First I’m going to spank that ass of hers red for her attitude. Then we are going to take some of Merigold’s advice,” he says. I tilt my head in confusion. Merigold had told us a bunch of things that will help win Speed over. I wonder which one he

Speed I don’t know how long we sat there curled up with Gretchen after Brick had left. Well, I wouldn’t say curled up. My legs were draped over hers but my ass, which was burning, was on the couch and my head was resting on her shoulder. She rubbed small circles on my back to soothe me and let me shed a few more tears. Silent ones this time. Gretchen kept saying over and over “ It’s ok baby. Let it out. I’m right here. I’m not going anywhere.” The more she said it the more I would relax into her. She had to be getting tired of sitting like this with me but she never complained, just held me. I didn’t realize how much I needed this. To be held and comforted like this. But not anyone would do. I needed her, Gretchen until my eyes started to get heavy. I didn’t want to move. When I started to yawn so big I thought I was going to pop my jaw, Gretchen slid my legs off hers. I whimpered at the

Brick We had finally made some headway with Speed and my fucking phone goes off. There was an emergency at Club Reckless that needed my immediate attention. As much as I didn't want to leave Speed’s side I had to. But I knew my girl was in safe hands. Once I gave Gretchen aftercare instructions I reluctantly left vowing to come back as soon as possible. I ran my bike as fast as I could and made the thirty-minute trip in under twenty minutes. I parked in my spot in front of the club and walked in. I did a quick survey around to make sure everything was running smoothly. When I saw nothing amiss I went to my office where I knew my security guys were waiting. I sit down at my desk and look at my fiercest, most loyal guys. They have been with me since I opened the club. “ What happened?” I ask. Fred steps up. “ Boss, a regula

Speed The Day Before The Race I have certain rituals I do the day before I race and the day I race. Ratchet even has a few he does. Not everyone would understand why we do these things but I don’t feel right if I don’t. It starts with me going for a two-mile run the day before a race. That activity I just finished now I’m headed up for a shower. I use my favorite body wash. The same one I have been using since my first race. It is lavender and chamomile. It helps calm my mind breathing in its scent. Now on to the next thing on the list is simple. I dress in a pair of well-worn jeans and a tee-shirt to go have a huge breakfast with Rachet. And I do mean huge. Pancakes, sausage, bacon, and scrambled eggs. I have just set the plates on the table when Ratchet comes in. While we

Gretchen Sitting in the stands watching Speed race is the most nerve-racking experience of my life. I was sitting next to Merigold and if it wasn’t for her I don’t think I could have made it through the whole race. She held my hand for most of the race. All around me brothers were cheering for Speed encouraging her to go faster. While I’m sitting there with my stomach in knots. Hell, the kids were calmer than me. But then again this is nothing new to them. Merigold has always gone to Speed’s races and when Jace and Jax were born she took them along but made sure they had their ears protected. I had prepared for this day. I thought I was ready and I could handle anything that happened. Oh, boy was I wrong. I was ok for the first few laps. They were going around in a circle. I couldn’t see the appeal but I was going to sit and be

Speed I know I surprised Gretchen but it was so worth it. That kiss we shared before she had to go back to work was incredible. Every time we kiss it gets better and better. Hell, everything just keeps getting better and I’m loving it. I can feel myself starting to care for Brick and Gretchen. But something at the back of my head is nagging me. I feel like something is going to happen. I just don’t know what. I decided I’m going to ignore it for now. I have Gretchen and Brick. I won my first race and I’m here to party to celebrate my victory. I wasn’t going to let anything get in the way of that. I had been at the party for about two hours. Chatting with the brothers. Explaining what it felt like inside the car when it fishtailed. Well, the best I could anyway. You could never try to explain it was something you have to

Brick The party was going great. Everyone seemed to be enjoying themselves. I was looking for my girl. I saw her go outside and Gretchen had followed Speed out. I figured I would sit at the bar and have a beer while I waited for them to come back in. After five minutes I wasn’t worried and sipped on my beer. But after ten minutes my gut started bugging me telling me something was wrong. I finished my beer and was about to go outside to check on the girls when Gretchen came in. Alone. Her eyes were red and puffy like she had been crying. She looked pale and miserable even though she was trying to smile. I knew something was wrong. I have never seen Gretchen cry. I followed her as she walked down the hallway to the bathroom. Once she was inside she went over to the sink and washed her face. I closed the door and locked it s
