Chapter 6

Zara's POV.

I can't believe I am about to drive a fucking Aston Martin. Not that I haven't driven on before but this baby looks so fucking good and it is a frigging latest. 

I press the button that had 'start' written on it. 

"Seatbelt." I tell Jason and he quickly fastens his seatbelt while I fasten mine too.

"Drive carefully Zara." Jason says warily.

Why the fuck is he wary? It is not like I am some maniac or something.

You are a maniac okay. There is a reason why your father forbade you from driving.

That is it, you betrayer. I am going to put an end to your life today.

My dad didn't forbid me from driving...

He did.

Okay, he did but he wasn't being fair when he forbade me. 

It wasn't my fault that the school gate wasn't strong. I mean it was just a little hit, I didn't even hit the gate hard, I just number it a little... I guess.

Okay this is what happened. It was our first day at Fashion Institute of Technology and my dad just gifted me my very first car, a brand new Audi R8. I picked Lucy up that morning and she wasn't a big fan of cars, still isn't but she squealed a lot when she saw the car. She went all "This is a frigging sport car, we should drive it the way it is meant to be driven." She managed to convince me to drive fast.

It didn't take much convincing Zara.

Okay it didn't take much convincing so will you keep quiet and let me talk.

As I was saying, after Lucy managed to convince me... Let us just say I started driving like a maniac and we were already at school before we knew it. It all happened so fast, one minute we were driving towards the school gate and the next minute the car just rammed into the school gate and well you can guess what happened after that.

They called my dad and he had to pay for damages, thankfully nobody got hurt not even I and Lucy. It wasn't out fault that the school gate wasn't strong though, we didn't even hit the gate that hard.

You did hit it hard.

Okay, maybe just a little.

I got scolded by my dad that day, I would have gotten a sound whooping but thank God I didn't. Lucy got away with it though, because she wasn't the one driving. How is that fair? 

And that was how my dad forbade me from driving even till date. 

Now you tell me, is it fair?

It is totally fair. You didn't only ruin the school gate, you destroyed the car too.

Okay maybe the car got a little bit...

Not a little bit, Zara. 

Just keep quiet already, smart ass.

"Zara?" Jason calls snapping me out of my little daydream. 

"Sorry, just got carried away. So... Where are we going?" I ask him.

"Still a surprise but you drive us to the hotel so we can get breakfast." He says. 

I nod my head "Okay." That will do.

I step on the accelerator and drive outside my parents compound. I step on the accelerator the moment I drove out of the compound. 

"What are you doing Zara?" Jason asks.

"Driving of course." I reply without taking my eyes off the road. 

I speed up even more and let out a loud whoop. 

"You really need to slow down, Zara." Jason says and I let out a laugh. 

I take a sharp turn and the tires of the car screeches in protest. This car is so good and it drives really smoothly, the purr of the car is so soft and fuck it is such a turn on.

Why are you such a weirdo?

I don't have the time to deal with you right now, you silly bitch. 

I slow down a little when we get to the busy road of New York City and I hear Jason sigh out in relief.

Not so fast boo.

I speed up even more and start overtaking cars, just because I can.

Slow down stupid. You are going to get us killed.

Who care if you die motherfucker?

Just so you know, if I die then you die.

Shocker, I forgot.

I overtake another car because the driver was just too slow and Jason lets out a curse. 

"I am never letting you near my car after this." He mutters holding on to the car seat. 

"Don't be like that, Jason." I tell him without facing him because I have to keep my face on the road. 

We are getting closer to the hotel now and it makes me sad because I will have to stop the car and this will be my last time driving this baby. 

"Slow down Zara. There is a lorry." Jason screams. 

I am not blind I can see that but I still don't slow down. There is a tiny space between the lorry and the car beside it so I slip between them and step on the accelerator. 

"Have you gone mad Zara? Are you trying to get us killed?" Jason screams at me and I burst out laughing. 

"Yep, definitely mad." He mutters. 

I snort in an unladylike manner and then burst out laughing. I slow down a little when we get closer to the hotel.

I hoot the horn and take a sharp turn to enter the hotel.

We round the really big fountain that is in front of the hotel. I stop the car right in front of the hotel stepping on the brake and send Jason flying. 

"Get out of my car, Zara." Jason says immediately the car stopped. 

"Chill out, Jason." I say laughing. 

"Just get out. You almost got us killed." He says. It sounded like he was actually worried. 

I wasn't that bad, was I? 

I open the car and alight with Jason doing the same. I caress the head of the car and kiss it because this is my first and last time of sitting behind those wheels.

"I will miss you baby" I say kissing the car again. 

"You are definitely crazy. I wonder if your dad knows about this craziness of yours." He says and I panic.

"You can't tell him." I tell him practically screaming. 

He chuckles "Someone is scared." He teases. 

"You can't tell him. Promise me you won't tell him." I say pointing my pinky finger at him. 

He looks down at my outstretched hand and then he looks at my face before bursting into laughter. 

"What is so funny?" I ask him pouting a little. 

He shakes his head "Nothing. I promise not to tell your dad. Now can we go and get something to eat. I am starving." 

I know this was just his way of not telling me why he was laughing at me but who cares when there is food. 

"Lead the way. That ride drained me, I am starving." I tell him and he laughs shaking his head at me. 

"You are crazy, Zara." He says.

You have no idea.
