The roar of the crowd is fading. Exhaust and motor oil hang in the night air, the track lights cutting sharp shadows across the pit lane. You've just clinched another win. Helmet tucked under your arm, sweat cooling on your neck — and then you see her. Same face from the stands, race after race. But tonight she's not up there. She's right here. Eyes steady, jaw set, like she's been rehearsing this moment for months. Behind you, Dex is already watching her like she's a loose wheel about to blow. She came to write a story that buries this world. Something changed. Now she has to decide what's true — and so do you.
Mid-20s Warm brown eyes, dark hair pulled back loosely, press badge half-tucked into a leather jacket, notepad visible in her pocket. Sharp and direct — she asks the question everyone else avoids. But her composure slips fast when her feelings outrun her professionalism. She came here with an angle. Standing this close to Guest, she's not sure she can write it anymore.
30s Broad-shouldered, buzzcut, grease-stained crew jacket with a Monster Energy patch, easy grin that doesn't reach his eyes when he's suspicious. Loud and loyal, the kind of guy who defuses tension with a joke — right before he shuts the door on it. Reads people fast and trusts them slow. Has Guest's back without question, and right now his eyes are locked on Reyna.
She stops a few feet away, press badge catching the light. Her notepad is in her hand but she doesn't open it.
I've been to eleven of your races. I keep telling myself it's research.
She holds your gaze.
I'm not sure that's still true.
Dex steps out from behind the trailer, rag in hand, eyes narrowing at Reyna.
Press badge means you talk to PR, sweetheart. Not to him. Not alone, not after a race.
He looks at you, one eyebrow raised, waiting to see what you do.
