Let's Cruise

Hello! Sorry for the long wait in updating! School's been excruciating and since I'm a Junior this year, I have to work really hard to maintain my A and B average so that I can go to college to become an animator for Pixar! Wouldn't that be awesome? But I have to study really hard if I want to get into a good college. And since it's fall, my allergies have decided that they are gonna explode this year and so I really didn't want to do anything for the past few days, but I forced myself to write this chapter for you.

Anyways, Let's get this Cruise on the road!

Disclaimer: I claim no right to the beautiful and wonderful world of Cars that rightfully belong to The Disney Company and Pixar Studios. I only own Nelly, Terran, Huie, Faith, Harper, Phil, Cathey, Hermione, Raffaella and Mario. *takes deep breath* that was a mouth full of names... I also don't own Sh-boom, that is property of The Crew Cuts.

"Uh, what exactly does Lolita mean?" The question came from Mater, making Holley look at her husband as she searched for something to tell him instead of the truth.

"It's a medical condition that runs in my family. It's only in girls." She said finally. It was true, it did only happen to girls.

"I hope I don't have Lolita!" Came the voice of Molley as she exchanged glances with her younger sister.

"Oh my God, Mom, what would happen if we have Lolita?" Katey asked, her eyes wide.

Holley eyed her brother nervously as her children kept repeating the word.

"So," Sally said, trying to steer the conversation away from the term Lolita. "Is everyone ready for tonight?" She asked looking around at the gathered townsfolk.

"What's tonight?" Hillary asked, looking around at the other cars.

"Tonight is the annual Friday Night Cruise." Raine said, "It's when we take a break from all that goes on today and we drive down the street to 60's music like when the town was in its heyday. It's really fun."

"Yea, but one of us always has to watch the younger kids and it's always Raine and I. Although most times Red helps out." Danney said, cracking a smile.

"Well, if you two want to enjoy the cruise, I would be happy to watch the kids." Hillary volunteered.

"Well...if your sure." Sally said, looking out the window where the kids were being hosed down by Red. "We aren't liable for any injuries."

Hillary found herself that night parked over at Flo's with the kids. Thunder and Trent Carrera had just dropped of six year old daughter, Terra and four year old son, Terran.

Celia, Leonzio, Windy, and Katey were currently driving around Flo's lot playing tag with Raffaella, who was Leonzio's little sister, and Mario, who was Celia's little brother. (So, yes, to those of you who are a wondering. Luigi has-a a son-a named-a Mario! Mama Mia! hahaha)

On the other side of the street, Danney, Molley, and Raine were currently taking bets on how long Hillary would last as the babysitter.

Red was nearby, watering a patch of flowers that Hillary had smelt the day she first arrived in the small town. Red lifted his windshield and his eyes met Hillary's, he gave a small smile then went back to watering the flowers. Hillary let out a deep blush that caught Katey's attention.

"Red and Aunt Hillary parked beneath a tree! K-I-S-S-I-N uhh... What comes after N?" She whispered the last part to her brother.

Benney thought for a second, "T!" he shouted out with confidence.

Hillary blushed harder as her eyes met Red's again. She quickly averted her gaze as her blush reddened.

The kids all snickered at the sight, but they quickly fell silent as Finn approached them, a dark blue Pontiac Firebird type car by his side.

"Hillary." Finn said, "I would like you to meet my wife, Hermione." Finn introduced. "Hermione, this is my little sister, Hillary." Finn introduced.

"It's a pleasure to meet you." Hillary said as she shook Hermione's tire (Just go with it...).

"The pleasure is all mine." Hermione replied as three little cars came rolling up in front of them.

"These are our kids." Finn said, indicating the three cars.

Motioning towards a little light blue car, he spoke, "This is our nine year old son, Huie." He introduced, "Huie, this is your Aunt Hillary." Huie looked up at the pink car and gave a small smile before burrowing himself into his mothers side. "He's quite shy, you see." he said, as his wife smiled at their son.

"This is our five year old daughter, Harper." He said, motioning towards a purple car.

"Hi." Harper said, smiling up at the pink car.

"Hello." Hillary said.

And this-" he said before he was cut off.

"Hi! I'm Faith! I'm seven years old!" came the voice of the other little car who zoomed around Hillary. She had her mother's dark blue colouring.

"It's great to meet you, Faith." Hillary said, smiling down at the little girl. She looked up at her brother, "She reminds me of Nelly." Hillary said.

"She does, doesn't she?" Finn said as he watched his oldest daughter drive around the lot making shooting sounds as she pretended to shoot the gas pumps.

"She wants to be a spy like me." Finn said as he looked at his daughter.

"So you continued on with the family business." Hillary said.

"Yes, Holley, Nelly and myself joined as field agents. Cathey went into technical and Phil went into engineering." Finn said.

"And what about Maria?" Hillary asked.

"She became a History Teacher." Finn said, "You know Maria, that was always her dream job."

"Boy I remember. She would always annoy us with random dates." Hillary said, recalling the days that Maria would say a random day in history.

"That's Maria for you." Finn said as the music began to play. Finn and Hermione waved goodbye as they drove to Sh-boom by The Crew-Cuts.

Red drove over and parked next to Hillary as the kids started driving around and dancing with each other. The neon lights danced off of the citizens of the town.

Red nudged her tire, Hillary looked up and Red motioned with his hood to the other side of the street where Raine and Danney were dancing with each other. Hillary cracked a smile at the two young cars. Molley had driven over and was currently dancing with the kids.

Red looked down at the pink Pontiac with a smile as she watched the children dance to the oldies. "Hillary." He spoke in a quiet voice. Hillary looked up at the firetruck, her smile still plastered to her face. "Can I have this cruise?" he asked her, extending his tire.

"You may." She replied with a girlish giggle as the two began to dance.

The two cars started to dance and the children began whispering to one another as their two babysitters cruised.

Raine triumphantly drove over to where her best friend was parked and extended her tire. Molley groaned as she unlocked the compartment above her right wheel that held her weeks allowance. She extracted five dollars and shoved it at her best friend. Raine laughed as she took the money, placing it in her own compartment.

"I think we're back in business." Molley said with a smile as she watched her aunt and Red cruise.

"Tots back in business." Raine said as her mind (just go with it) began racing. Her tongue sticking out ever so slightly, a habit she had gotten from her father. "And I know just the plan we can use to do it." Raine said.

"What plan is this one?" Molley asked her friend.

"Plan AC285." Raine said with a smile.

Molley's eyes grew, "Are you insane, Raine!?" Molley asked, staring at her best friend with wide eyes.

"Why yes, yes I am." Raine replied.

"If this goes south, I'm pretending for the rest of my life that I don't know you." Molley said.

"You know you can't ignore me, sweetie." Raine said, playfully bumping her friend.

Molley laughed, "I can try." she said.

"Try, but will not succeed." Raine said with an all knowing smile.

"Okay, what are you two up to this time?" Came the voice of Sally, who was currently parked behind the two tween girls.

The girls jumped upon hearing the blue Porsche speak and they quickly did a 180 turn.

"Nothing." they said, innocent smiles playing on both of their lips.

Sally raised her left windshield as she stared at her daughter and god-daughter. "You two are up to something." Sally said as Holley came cruising over.

"What have they gotten into this time, Sally?" she asked as she stared at her own daughter.

"I don't know, Holley. But they are planning something." Sally said, turning her hood to face her best friend.

"They are just like their fathers." Holley said.

"Always planning on doing something to disrupt the peace." Sally said.

"They make such a cute couple." Katey said, who was parked next to her sister, looking at Red and Hillary.

"They do." Holley said as she smiled. The two tween girls grinned big at each other.

"So that's what you two are up to." Holley said, noticing the smile playing on the two girls face.

"No." Said the blue and purple car quickly as they looked at Holley. Holley rolled her eyes as she drove back to the pump that her husband was at.

Sally took one last look at the two girls before driving over to Windy.

The two cars waited till their moms were out of earshot before they began their conversation.

"Okay, what are we going to do first?" Molley asked as Raine whispered to her the plan.

Woohoo! That chapters done! Dang, this felt like it took forever to writer! I really hoped you all liked it!
