VA VA VOOM
The afternoon sun glare highlighted dust and heat from the field of cars lined up in rows. The rev of engines and smell of petrol hovered in the air. Kevin walked around the corner of the barn and spotted Billy and Jeff. They were stood by Jeff's Corvette Stingray swigging beer from green glinting bottles, he headed towards them. 'Hey, sorry I'm late.'
The men turned to look and Billy raised his bottle and his eyebrows, 'thought you'd bailed on us loser.'
'What kept you?' said Jeff. 'Where's your ride?'
'Yeah, you walk here?' Billy laughed.
'Brake pads are shot,' said Kevin high fiving them both, 'had to catch a ride with my aunt.'
Billy nearly spat his beer out. 'Your aunt?'
'What? You being all 'driving miss daisy' now?' said Jeff.
Kevin shook his head, 'uh, she's not that old!'
'How old is not old, 80?' Jeff wiped the sweat from his forehead with the bottom of his t-shirt.
'Real funny. She's my mum's
younger
sister.'
'Yeah, whatever.' Jeff laughed.
'She's cool, you'll see,' Kevin nodded his head towards the cooler box in the trunk, 'pass me a beer.'
Billy grabbed a bottle from the cooler. 'We'll see?' He popped the lid with an opener, passing the bottle to Kevin.
'Cheers,' Kevin took a swig of beer, 'yeah she's getting an ice cream, from the van in the main carpark.'
Jeff shook his head. 'Christ, I'm not babysitting your aunt for the afternoon.'
'My aunt can look after herself, don't worry about that. And stop your whining, you're the one sounding like an old lady.'
Jeff tipped his beer to drink but paused mid sip staring over Kevin's shoulder. 'Holy mother of...'
Billy looked behind Kevin too. 'Now that is a vision of heaven right there.'
Kevin turned his head to see, there walking towards them was his aunt. The sun was illuminating her long bright red hair, the curled ends gently bouncing as she did. Her long bare legs were tanned and toned leading up to a blue denim mini skirt. Her red blouse, tied in a knot just below her overflowing cleavage, revealed a taut stomach. Her hips swayed as she sashayed smiling towards them.
'Hey boys.' She waved and licked her ice cream.
'Oh my god, is that your aunt?' whispered Jeff, running his hand through his hair to make sure it was still slicked back.
Billy stood up straight and brushed down his t-shirt. 'You have got to be kidding me.'
Kevin rolled his eyes. 'Yes, that's my aunt.'
'My boner has a boner.' said Jeff.
Kevin lightly punched Jeff's arm. 'Hey knock it off.'
'Sorry Kev.'
Kevin's Aunt was at the Stingray, a waft of heady perfume masked the petrol aroma, 'boy it sure is hot out here.'
Jeff couldn't take his eyes off her cleavage. 'Damn right it is.'
'This is Aunt Rachel, Rachel this is Jeff and Billy.' Kevin glared at Jeff. Both men smiled and nodded at Rachel, suddenly rendered speechless.
Rachel licked all around her ice-cream to stop it dribbling down the cone. 'Have we missed much?'
'Nah, not really,' said Billy, the cat letting go of his tongue, 'a few show cars have gone early, but the races start any minute.'
'Sweet.' Rachel wandered down the side of the car, checking it out. She bent over to look inside the open window, her skirt rising up a little revealing a hint of butt cheeks.
Kevin drained his beer bottle. 'Where's your ride Billy?'
Billy reluctantly turned his eyes from Rachel to Kevin. 'Still waiting on a cylinder to be shipped over, it's in the barn, aint going anywhere.'
'Bummer. You reckon it'll be ready for next weeks' meet?'
'It better be, no good stuck in the barn, I need to be burning some rubber.' Billy kicked at the grass with his boots. 'Gutted I couldn't race it today with it being Dad's field an all.'
'I'm melting,' said Rachel reappearing by Kevin's side, 'it's getting a bit too hot for me, any shade around here?'
Kevin pointed to the other side of the field. 'There's the trees over there.'
