I hastily paid the bill at the Bull’s Stern, leaving our server a big tip, and Lola and I made for the van. As we scurried across the dark parking lot we passed Devin’s shiny Airstream and a couple of RVs. Just like Devin to overdo things.
We jumped into the van, Lola’s hair flying behind her.
My foot was heavy on the gas pedal as we screamed ahead to the next town, just outside Monterey. The ocean boomed below the sheer cliff, and I forced myself to take a deep breath of bracing marine air as my heart beat wildly.
A pounding filled my ears, and I punched the steering wheel. “Devin is not taking this one. If he thinks he can, he’s got another thing coming.” I forced myself to relax against the seat and concentrate on driving. The truth was that Devin was a fantastic surfer. The competition would be fierce.
Lola mocked Devin, affecting a comical face. “Honey, our escargot and champagne’s ready.” She smacked the dashboard so hard I thought she’d break her hand. “Caralho! He saw me looking at the website. I should’ve never let him see it.” She turned to me, her eyes apologetic. “I didn’t know, sweetheart.” She covered her face with her hands. “I’m sorry.”
Sweetheart? I patted her thigh. “It’s okay, babe. They haven’t got a chance against us.”
“But Kristin’s so skinny and perfect. She’s a great surfer.” Lola shook her head, and her wild blond hair flew around her head. “How’d she end up with a jerk like Devin?”
I looked straight ahead and gripped the steering wheel hard. “We’re going to win. We’ll train, we’ll get our moves down, we’ll do whatever it takes.” I smacked the steering wheel. “No fucking way. That motherfucker is not getting away with this.”
“Not without a fight.”
My fingers snapped the radio dial to the on position, and loud rock music blared. I cranked the tunes louder. Anything to drown out my violent thoughts. How dare he? My nostrils flared as I thought of Devin. He was not taking my uncle’s shop!
My hands clenched the steering wheel, my face a grim mask until I swerved a hard right into the parking lot of the motel.
I let out a long breath and cracked my neck from side to side. Lola looked at me, and I gave her a shaky smile. “Be right back.”
I could barely wait till early morning light because all I wanted to do was get out there in the ocean and practice with Lola.
We would win.
We had to win.
I got the key, and we scrambled into the motel room. Adrenaline charged through my system, and I could tell Lola was fired up too. She kicked the bed. Her face was flushed, and my hot beauty muttered Portuguese curse words I didn’t understand.
We bustled around the cozy room, Lola tearing the blanket off and replacing it with her feather comforter, me hurling my toiletry bag into the bathroom.
“Devin’s a fucking loser.” I punched a pillow. “I don’t care if I have to surf till my arms fall off.
