Jen parked the car in the parking lot of the "shop" that Lucas was talking about. They had gone there to get the car for the race in the first place but Jen thought it was just a normal garage initially only to be surprised by Lucas when he took her to the isolated road where the street race was going to take place.

Lucas draped an arm over her shoulders once she got out of the car and the two of them went into the shop.

"I brought back the car, with another one on top of it," Lucas said and tossed the car keys towards one of the mechanics in the shop.

"I'm assuming it was a victory?" the mechanic said as he looked at the car keys. He was familiar with Lucas as he was the only other friend of Brian who was interested in street racing.

"It was, where is my car? I'm starving, I want to go have lunch," Lucas said as he looked around the shop. Lucas was clearly in a good mood and had even gotten more talkative than he normally was.

"It's in the back," the mechanic said and handed him his car keys.

"Thanks, I'll make sure to visit before I leave," Lucas said and said goodbye to the rest of the staff before going to get his car with Jen.

"You'll visit before you leave?" Jen asked as she got into their car. Lucas just smiled ambiguously and went to the driver's side and got into the car himself.

"Is there a problem?" he asked as he turned on his car.

"No," Jen said, but her face clearly said that she had a problem with it.

"Good, let's go have lunch then," Lucas said and pulled the car out of the shop.

"Where do you want to go eat?" Jen asked, deciding not to stress herself out about something that hasn't happened yet.

"FDE?" Lucas said as if he was suggesting the restaurant but was already driving toward the main restaurant.

"Really?" Jen asked in surprise.

"You do know how popular your restaurants are, right? Are you surprised that I'd want to have a meal from there?" Lucas asked with raised eyebrows.

"Well, when you put it like that," Jen said with a proud smile as she felt like she had been acknowledged.

"But you are aware of it," Lucas said with a chuckle.

"I am but I haven't heard it in a while," Jen said as she shrugged her shoulders.

"Now that you've heard it from me, do you think we can get a table at your super popular restaurant?" Lucas asked as he remembered that they couldn't just pop into the restaurant with no reservation.

"I'll sort it out," Jen said and took out her phone to call Jake.

"Hi sis," was the first thing he said when he picked up the phone making Jen smile sentimentally.

"Jake, how are you?" she asked as she took a peek at Lucas.

"I'm good, when do you plan on seeing me? I really missed you," Jake complained, clearly acting spoiled. He knew that Jen wasn't as mad at him as she was in the beginning, so he was doing his best to curry favour with her.

"Soon, we should go out on a date," Jen said as she checked her nails.

"We should, what's up?" Jake asked as he was at work and couldn't talk to Jen for too long.

"I'm coming to the main restaurant with my boyfriend," Jen said and was met with silence for a few seconds.

"My brother-in-law?" Jake asked, his voice loud enough for Lucas to hear him. He chuckled in amusement before looking at Jen's reaction.

"Mmh, can you check if there will be a private room available or if anyone has cancelled a reservation?" Jen asked Jake, and he readily agreed.

"I'll call you in five minutes to confirm," Jake said, his voice sounding excited before he cut the call. Jen silently looked at her phone screen before looking at Lucas' side profile only to catch him smiling.

"It's not funny," Jen said as she looked at him.

"He sounds cute, I don't have a brother, but a young brother-in-law? How fun," Lucas said as he stopped the car at a red light.

"Fun? You-" Jen started to say but was cut off by her ringtone.

"Hello?" Jen said after picking up the phone while playfully glaring at Lucas. Lucas just chuckled and drove away once the light turned green.

"Sis? Yes, there's a private room that had been freed up this afternoon, an office lunch was cancelled, should I reserve it for you or will it be too big?" Jake asked.

"No, it'll be fine, just keep it for me," Jen said and glanced at Lucas.

"Okay, when will you be arriving?" Jake asked, out of both curiosity and to also reserve the room for them.

"We'll be there in about ten minutes," Jen said after checking her surroundings.

"Okay, I'll be waiting for you," Jake said while sounding excited.

"Why would you be waiting?" Jen asked.

"Don't be mean, tell my brother-in-law that I'll be waiting to meet him," Jake said, his voice loud enough for Lucas to hear him.

"Why are you waiting to meet him?" Jen asked with a small frown and turned to look at Lucas who had a wide smile on his face.

"Mmh, I'll see you later, I have to get back to work," Jake said and before Jen could say anything else, he cut the call.

"I can't believe him," Jen said with a reluctant smile.

"Since he is so excited about seeing his sister once again I'll have to be a bit faster-" Lucas started to say but was immediately cut off by Jen.

"You are not giving me another mini-heart attack, you will drive within the speed limit," Jen demanded with a glare that Lucas found cute for some reason.

"Alright, I'll listen to you," Lucas said with a big smile that showed off his good mood.
