"It's been awhile since I've done a tune up on it." He said sitting next to her. "I can't really get into details now but it's a 2010 camero concept. Alot of the parts aren't stock either."

Vivian thought a few moments before thinking again, "So... is it sort of like a custom built since the parts aren't in stock?" She asked curiously. "And... I guess I can do a tune up if you don't want to do it." She smiled and winked.

"Well actually..." He thought for a moment before continueing. "I kinda figured you'd want to take a look at some of the features of it. It's not everyday you see an American car in Japan."

Vivian smiled and looked at him, "I'd really like that. Do you know what its suppose to arrive?" She asked and looked at the clock. 10 minutes to go...

"Hopefully, I'll be driving it home from school today." He said as he noticed the students filing in. "Looks like we'll have to continue this later."

Vivian laughed softly, "No... They may be able to understand some, but talk fast enough and they won't understand at all. Plus, we're just going to talk about our summer.. and she might have you introduce yourself to them, then have everyone go around and introduce themselves to you." She looked at the students, waving to a few of them.

"Like I said I hate first days at new schools." He said as he turned and gave a slight smile to his new classmates.

Vivian smiled softly and watched as a few of the incoming girls waved to her, then gained a grin when they saw Darek. They turned to one another and chattered away in Japanese to one another. They walked to the back of the room and sat down. Vivian laughed softly and leaned towards Darek, "They were talking about how cute they think you are." She whispered to him. her face showed she didn't care, but her eyes would betray her and show she really did care.

"I guess I should've told you that I speak japanese." Darek said with a sheepish smile. "I learned from my parents.

"Well damn, now I can't get away with anything." She laughed. She watched as Ms. D gatehred some papers and went to the front of the class and waited for the bell to signal school to start. "Now how will you be driving home from school today... if you didn't drive here?"

"My parents are going to drop it off when it gets here." He said as the class had finished filing in and class started.

Vivian laughed slightly and turned to look at Ms. D as she cleared her throat.
"Good Morning, everyone! I hope your summer was good, yes?" She asked them. "I also hope you've been practicing enough. This is your 3rd year in here, and therefore it'll require alot more speaking. You're writing is fine, some sentences are off, but nothing that can't be fixed." She smiled. Vivian laughed softly, and waited for the groans to come. "As you know, we have Vivian here that has been an excellent aid for everyone." The groans of 'yes' came. "But now, we have another student to help us." She pulled an empty desk forward and sat on the top. "I'm not going to make him come up... But that doesn't stop me from having everyone, including him, stand at your desk to do introductions. This doesn't mean take your sweet time, we have things to go over and review. You all can chat it up later." She smiled. "Now, how about we start with Usana-san? Remember, in english." Ms. D chimed.
A girl in the back of the class stood up. "My name is Yukiko Usana." From there, the introductions went up and down the rows. Finally, it came to Vivian. She stood up, "Do I seriously have to introduce myself again?" She asked and looked at Ms. D. "Yes, as a reminder to your fellow classmates as to how to pronounce your name." Ms. Dililah directed. Vivian groaned and looked at Darek. She couldn't help but laugh, "As you know, I'm Vivian Zoe Knight. I like doing mechanical labor and fixing things." She eventually stated with a straight face and quickly sat down. "You're turn, Darek." Ms. D smiled softly at him.

(Better get this over with.) Darek stood up and faced the class. "I'm Darek Kaze. I'm a transfer from America and I'm mostly into racing cars, but that's another story." He finished and sat back down.

"Alright. Now that that's out of the way... We can talk about our summers! Vivian, Darek, you may go to the kitchen and talk if you wish." Ms. D excused. Vivian smiled, bowed shortly and stood up. She walked over to the kitchen and waited for Darek so she could shut the door.

Darek followed Vivian into the kitchen and watched her close the door. "Well this beats class work any day." He said looking around the kitchen. "But yeah like I was saying earlier I street race and since I didn't have a mechanic I had to learn everything myself."

"I see. Well, then you really don't have to let me look at your car... I'm sure I'll eventually get to America and look at some cars." She smiled softly, pulled a chair away from the table and sat down. "Tell me more about yourself."

"Well, let's see. I lived in Los Angeles, California. I've been doing street races since I was 15, I've even raced some of the better racers out there. Although some of them weren't wins. And I do like a girl that knows her way around a car." Darek said that last part without realizing.

Vivian looked at him, her eyes slightly wide, as he stated the last part. She blushed slightly and looked around the kitchen, "Well, then I'm sure you've had plenty of girlfriends that helped you." She stated softly with a smile and looked back at him.

"Heh, in California not exactly. The girls there are more interested in anything but cars. Ever since I started street racing, I've been my own mechanic." Darek said now realizing what he had said a few minutes ago. He blushed a little before looking down at his feet.

Vivian stayed quiet for a few moments. "What... are the girls like over there?" She asked softly. She rested her elbows on the back of the chair and let her head rest in her hands.
