......4 weeks later.......
"Brian, you feeling good enough to kick this track's ass?" Peter asked
as he was getting ready for practice. "Hell yeah," Brian answered
pulling Amanda into the garage. Peter looked at her, then at Brian.
"What?" Brian asked noticing the weird looks. "Uh, whats that?" he aske
looking at Amanda's now noticable baby stomach. "I'm getting fat, Sorry,"
she smirked. "No I'm kidding guys," he snapped. "Its called being
pregnant," Amanda answered. Peter stared at Brian with a blank look on his
face. "Sorry Pete, it just kinda happened." Brian answered.
"Whatever, I'm not even worried about that yet, as long as you're focused I
don't care." he said finally. "I am focused," Brian told him.
"Baby, I'm gonna go feed the dogs. I'll talk to you when practice is
over. " Amanda said. "I love you, be safe." she added. "I love you
too," he said giving her a kiss.
......on the track........
"The car feels pretty good, but its loose in turn 1 and 4." Brian told
Pete over the radio. "Alright, bring it in, we'll work on it. " Pete
answered. "Okay," Brian said. When he got back, Peter told him he
could get out. "I'm gonna go get a drink, I'll be back in a few minutes."
Brian told him.
....in the motorhome....
Amanda layed on the couch with Maggie on one side, and Destiny on the
other, then Elmo on her stomach and Grover (the bullmastiff) at the
door. As soon as Grover heard footsteps he started barking. Then Brian
walked in. "Hey baby, how ya feeling?" he asked. "Sick of being
pregnant," she answered. "Awww my poor gurl," he said kissing her forehead.
"How are you feeling honey?" Amanda asked. "Still a little sore, but
I'll live through it." he answered. "That's good," she said smiling.
"Yeah," he agreed taking a gatorade from the fridge. "So is Peter
pissed?" Amanda asked standing up walking over to Brian. "Yeah, well kinda,"
he answered. "Oh sorry, I should of tried to hide it, I didn't kno it
was that visible already." she told him. "How many more laps of
practice you got?" she added. "I have to scuff 2 more sets of tires, then
I'm done, for a little bit at least." he answered. "Alright, why don't
you go talk to to Jamie or Kasey, both of them are done I think." Brian
told her. "Okay," she said sliding her shoes on. Then they both left.
Brian went to his crew, and Amanda went to see Kasey. "Hey," he said
as he saw her walking over. "Whats up?" she asked. "Nothing really,"
he said looking down at her stomach."You're pregnant?!?!?" he asked.
"Yeah, 3 months to be exact." she answered. "That would mean..." Kasey
started. "Yeah, 2nd day." she said. "At least you guys are still
together. " he said. "Yeah," she answered. "Well hey, I'm gonna go see
Jamie and Casey. I'll talk to you after qualifying." she said. "Alright,
see ya." he said.
Amanda walked over to where Jamie and Casey were talking. Jamie had
his hands on his hips, so Amanda snuck up and slide through his arm, so
now it was on her shoulder. "Hey," he said noticing she was there.
"Hey guys," Amanda answered. "Where's your boyfriend?" Jamie asked.
"Scuffing tires I think, he wouldn't let me stay in the motorhome." she
said. "Why not?" Casey asked. "He thinks being around people will make
me feel better I guess." she answered. "Why whats wrong?" Casey asked.
"I'm sick of being pregnant."she answered. "Oh," Casey answered.
"Sorry I'm kinda behind a little," Casey said smiling. "That's ok," then
she felt ice on the back of her neck. "Your getting the only hoodie you
brought wet," she said smiling. "You mean you stole mine again?" he
asked. "Yupperz," she smirked. "You packed our bags and only put one
hoodie in there and its mine?" he asked. "Thats unfair," he added. "No,
I'm just kidding, I'd never only pack you one hoodie." she said. "No
because you always steal them," he said wrapping his arms around her. "So
you made her leave the rv?" Casey asked jokingly. "Yeah, well I didn't
make her, I told her she should." Brian answered. "Ohh," Casey
answered. "Well we gotta go," Brian said. "Bye guys! Good luck in qualifying
today!" Amanda said walking away. "Bye, thanks." Both guys said in
unsion.
....Later that day....
Amanda turned on the tv, Jamie was qualifying, he ended up 13th. Next
was Brian, Amanda smiled as Brian got the pole. She ran to the garage
just as he was getting in. They looked at each other smiling. Amanda
gave him a kiss. "That was freaking awesome!" she said hugging him.
"Thanks baby," he said smiling. "I love you, " he added. "I love you
too." Amanda answered.
"Brian, you two can go back to the motorhome. I'll come get you when
we need you again." Peter said. "Alright, thanks Pete," Brian said as
they walked back to the motorhome.
They layed there watching the end of qualifying, and Amanda fell
asleep. Brian still layed there watching Trackside. Then Amanda's cell
rang. Brian picked it up,
"Hello?" he answered.
"Is Amanda there?" Justin said on the other line
"Yeah, but shes sleeping." Brian told him.
"Okay, then just tell her Justin called. And have her call me back.
It's kinda important."-J
"Will do, bye."-B
"Bye" Brian hung up.
