► reputation
“I ain't as much of a bad guy as I look, but the looks is what people tend to judge on, I guess. Sure, I grew up on the wrong side of the tracks. Sure, I pick fights I prolly shouldn't be picking. Sure, I break some laws every now and then. But that all don't really matter, what matters is my heart. Ask AJ or my crew or my momma, they'll vouch for me. I'm just an angel in a studded leather jacket.”
► noteworthy appearance traits
“Leather jackets and pins are an everyday staple. The rest is just whatever I find off the the floor that smells clean and doesn’t have too many wrinkles. Lots of thrift store finds, that’s my secret to looking good while still being broke.”
► ride/favorite item
KTM Super Duke that he got an incredible deal on because some rich kid wrecked it and all it needed was some TLC and new parts to be back in running shape.
► current dilemma
“I’m currently waiting for my exam results to know if I’m a certified mechanic or not. I almost didn’t come on this trip at all because of it. I don’t let it show, but I’m a nervous wreck about it. If I didn’t pass… I have no idea what the fuck I’m going to do after graduation.”
► warning
“My name is Chris. Holy fuck, just call me Chris, and don’t fucking ask. Okay? Don’t ask.”

► quirks
- “I can’t fucking wink. I just end up closing both eyes every time and look like a fucking retard.”
- “I always chew on my straws. My ex hated that, which really only made me do it more.”
- “I’ve got a piercing that only some ladies have had the pleasure of seeing. And feeling.”
► hobbies
- “Going to street races. Sometimes being in them. Sometimes fixing up the shit that gets wrecked.”
- “Parties, I love a good party.”
- “The things LAPD would call ‘illicit activities’, you know… drugs, underage drinking, vandalism. They mostly hate that last one, but I like tagging shit. Banksy style, ya dig? I got political statements to make, and I ain’t allowed to vote yet.”
► dreams
“You talking long term, or just the present? ‘Cause presently, I’d just like to get a job so I’m not a total disappointment to my mother. Hopefully a mechanic job, I’m really only good with my hands. Mystery dad must not have been that smart, and I didn’t inherit mom’s asian brains… just her eyes.”
► fears
- “Being homeless would suck.”
- “Knocking a girl up would also suck.”
- “Being shot would probably suck the most, but it’s nearly a tie with number two.”

► occupation
“Sometimes I fix up the gearheads’ rides for cash. The money's good, and the entertainment is even better. I'm currently training to get certified as a legit mechanic though, cause shit's about to get real after graduation.”

- Angela Reyes - Single mother suprema, filipina extrema.
► brief history
“What the fuck do you want, my life story? Ain’t that much of a life, to be honest. It all started when some dude knocked up my mom in the back of her car. If you have more than two brain cells, you could probably guess the make of it. Anyway, once white boy had his taste of the asian persuasion, he bailed, and ‘cause moms grew up religious, she kept me. She was 17 so, you know, that was probably a mistake. I mean look at me, holy fuck. Regardless, she pulled through, doing that single mother grind. When I was younger, she drank a lot and worked sketchy jobs… pretty sure stripping might have been one of them, but she got her act together towards her late twenties. Then she got some desk job that uses her smarts, and now she doesn’t drink as much. ‘Cept on the weekends, damn can she put ‘em away. I’m her only kid though, I must have taught her some kinda lesson by… ya know, existing. We’ve always been poor, like hella poor. Living in California on a single, degreeless parent’s budget is damn near fucking impossible. I used to go to the local public school, not the fancy rich bitch one, the one on the other side of town. The ‘urban’ side. I said used to… ‘cause it turns out schools don’t like it when you bring a knife in to deal with assholes. “Don’t bring that knife in again,” they said when they suspended me. Turns out they really didn’t like it when I brought in a different knife and answered “well, it’s not that knife” in response to their questioning on why I did it again. If they wanted people to follow their rules, they should have been more specific with ‘em. So… now I find myself at a school for ‘troubled youth’, so, I guess I’m a ‘troubled youth’. I suppose they ain’t wrong, huh? I actually kinda like this place better, I think they get more tax funding than my old school or something? ‘Cause we have an auto body shop, and like other trade school stuff. I even caught me a few of the honeys studying cosmetology a few halls over, so it ain’t half bad here at all. Plus, I get to work with my hands in the shop, and picked up mechanic skills these past two years. This works way more for me than regular school ever did. Anyway, catch you on the streets, my dudes.”

It was totally random that we met, but the timing was perfect. I’d never really had close guy friends before, at least not reliable ones, and Bumble needed someone humble in his life. With the exception of our gender and love of cars, AJ and I got that opposites attract thing going on. We balance each other almost as much as we encourage each other’s bad behaviors. That’s what being best friends means though, having someone to get into trouble with, and that same someone to call at the end of the day when you get in trouble all by yourself. We got each other’s backs for life, even if he currently thinks this road trip is literally the end of life as we know it.” |

I like that he has a certain style and an unwavering sense of self, it's kind of admirable. People our age tend to be all over the place, but he's consistent. His accent is something else too. It makes our movie dates all the more fun when he tries quoting the most memorable lines right after, but Russki style. We go to the movies a lot, I don't think there's a blockbuster that has come out these past couple years that we didn't go see together, plus or minus some of the other crew members. When it comes to chatting, he's one of the only guys that will really get into talking about politics and current events... and somehow it always ends up boiling down to us arguing about who really would have won the cold war. All in good fun though, he's good people. Oh, shit, funny story that kinda showcases the wacky shit we sometimes get into. So, a few months back he's driving for Uber and runs into a little car trouble and calls me up to the rescue. I get there and his fare is a couple drunk 10's in the backseat giggling away, trying to get him to have a drink from the flasks they have in their bags. I do a quick and dirty repair but the night kinda turns into this weird fever dream of drinking and shooting the shit with these complete stangers under the stars. Wild...” |

I recognize her from AJ's parties, and I'm pretty sure she's a lesbian. Either that, or she's just really friendly with her girl friends. Anyway, we have talked once before, just didn't exchange names. She taught me how to do the whole salt and lime thing with a tequila shot at a party. That was my first and last tequila shot, because the shit tastes like ball sweat, I don't care if she said to power through it. I don't want to drink something that tastes like that just to get drunk, there are literally so many other options.” |

But for real, I did not expect her to be who would step out of that Supra the day we met. I stood and stared like a dumbass for a few seconds before shaking it off and going up to talk to her about her ride. Shit was sick as hell, wanted to know if she had modded it at all, because she really pushed the limits on the streets. Turns out me talking about her car instead of trying to get her pants off was a hit, ‘cause the next thing I know she was all ‘can I have your number?’ We became buds after that, mostly talking about cars and specs, a little flirting, and a lot of laughing about our Asian matriarchs. Speaking of, I let it slip one day that I made a new half asian friend, and then my moms realized she was a GIRL and ASIAN, and the rest was fucking history. Next thing I know, I’m being forced to invite her over for dinner, and her grandma is having her do the same for me. So basically, we’re at each others houses so much that I think everyone thinks we’re fucking, our family wants us to start planning a wedding, but really… it’s totally platonic. Not even a kiss, not that I wouldn’t want one, she’s a stunner. Kinda a thousand miles outta my league though.” |

Like if innocence had a face, and blonde hair, and an obnoxiously positive attitude... it would be Emi. For a time, that's all I really knew about her. She's one of AJ's friends, was dating one of their school's football players - they looked like the type of couple who would win prom king and queen no sweat. Well... that's what I thought, turns out dude decided to shit on the good thing he had going with Emi and cheated on her. AJ asked me for advice when he found out about it, asked if it was his place to tell Emilia about it, and break her heart. An' I said NAH BRAH, you gotta get him to man up and admit it to her, and if he won't, then it is your place to break his face. An' of course, angel that I am, I offered my services in the matter. We gave that jock the business, and the timing was... well, really shit. This all went down right around prom and I dont really know how it hit Emilia, but it can't be good. She ain't smiling as much, and that just ain't natural.” |

We’ve been hanging and racing together for a few years now. Ivy though? Ivy fucking gets it, I mean really. We’re both kinda boneheads about being honest with our emotions, we’d rather punch it out and get in trouble over it. But I think once we realized that about each other, things really started to click between us. We got to talking more, talkin’ about the real life shit. Like what it’s like to not have your father around, or having to help our moms put food on the table in the past. Her pops was a mechanic too, and that’s my dream, so we definitely bond over the passion for cars we share. But yeah, when shit gets dark and we get feeling a certain type of way, we know we can reach out to each other for that real talk and not be judged. It’s nice to have that, it’s fucking rare in this town.” |

The first couple of times we met were at AJ’s ragers, which isn’t like the best time to have a proper conversation. But I think it was at one of those parties that I heard her last name and asked if she was related to that youtuber. I gave her some serious shit about her brother, he’s the epitome of everything that’s wrong with young wealthy white boys getting a platform, a fucking prankster youtuber? Jesus Christ, at least do something that matters. Anyway, she handled the teasing like a champ and we actually started to get along pretty well after that. She’s kind of a hot mess and really… I dunno? Shy? We mostly text or talk online, she gets real weird in person. Whatever though, she’s cute, I like the hair. I really like the hair.” |

Yeah, I've heard of her, and she sounds pretty terrible. Granted, I have heard everything about her through AJ, who is a biased source at worst and an overly dramatic one at best. So I guess I'll take what I heard with a grain of salt. But, from what I know, even when AJ and Jamie were dating, Katie was always getting in the way of their alone time and cock-blocking them, like she didn't want them to be together. Then after the break-up, she would always be talking shit towards AJ in the halls. Then it turns out Jamie starts gettin' sweet on none other than one of Katie's good theater friends, and she is super supportive of their relationship, and rubs it in AJ's face at every chance she can get. Don't ask me why I know so much about the drama that goes down at a school I don't even go to, blame AJ for that. I got an ear for listenin' is all, and this ear's heard that Katie might've ruined her brother's relationship to set him up with her bestie instead. Pretty fucked if you ask me." |

I think he's an artist or some shit, but he definitely is mostly some kind of jocky meathead. I know this, because he's always lifting his shirt up and flashing his abs for days. The girls always swoon, but he seems oblivious to it though, so who knows what that's about. I dunno, it only annoys me because I am constantly reminded by how I should make time to go to the gym more when I'm around him. Maybe we'll get the chance to get closer on this trip.” |

Anyway, he came to me for car repairs once, and even though I charged him - friend discount of course - he's such a good guy he couldn't just leave it at that, he wanted to help me out more in return. At the time, I was doing pretty terrible at math and I know Nate is kind of a super nerd, so I suggested he could tutor me a bit. It worked out, I passed trigonometry because of him. Like I said, good people, seems like someone you can rely on. That's good, because if I'm right and Val really does like him, I think I can trust him to treat her right if anything comes of it. He fuckin' better, that's all I gotta say.” |

We didn't have much reason to talk or interact aside from the occasional glance and flirty line in passing. First time that we really struck up a conversation was when her mom was having car trouble and she came to me because she heard that I have fixed up the gearheads' rides on occasion. I gave her the friend discount and she sat there chatting it up while I worked in my garage. She made a comment about my jacket being cool and asked where I got, I told her I got it at a thrift store and she just kinda lit up. Said she loves thriftin' and that we should go together sometime, so now that's a thing we do. I thought it would be kind of obnoxious to go shopping with a girl at first, but Reyna's aight. It's actually kind of fun.” |

I think in a lot of ways we’re kinda cut from the same cloth. Like Ivy, he’s another one that just gets it. The real world. He has a way about him that makes everyone else comfortable. ‘Cept when he gets angry, then it’s scary, but generally, super chill. Because of that, he’s one of the few people that’s seen ‘mi casa’, and to further solidify his angelic qualities, my moms loves him on an obnoxious scale. “When you gon’ invite Sami over again? He so polite, such good cook. You could learn someting!” She ain’t wrong though, it’s nice to have Sami around, he’s a super helpful dude. That’s why, when he had his fallout with his pops recently, we were more than happy to let him crash on our couch for a week. And of course, he couldn’t just relax like a normal person, he kept trying to earn his keep and do things for us. But that’s just the kinda guy Sami is, solid as a fuckin’ rock.” |

I dunno, whatever, Val’s the shit, aight. I met her through AJ, like I met most of these BHHS rascals. Val’s kinda one of those rich bitches that loves nothing more than swiping daddy’s card, but I mean, after getting to know her, even that can’t make me hate her. This life is the only one she’s ever known, can’t really fault her for it. She isn’t judgy because of her money like most people can be, she accepts me for who I am. I guess if we’re really getting into the details though, there’s something you should know that NO ONE else does but her and I. After one of AJ’s parties junior year, I was giving her a ride home on the bike and… things happened. She was hugging close up on me, breathing on my neck, smelling like a sweet mix of her perfume and vodka… next thing I knew we were heading to my house instead of hers. I didn’t know it until our clothes were already off, but that was her first time. And for us, it was the only time. I definitely don’t regret it but… I think she might? Since she swore me to secrecy on it. I can’t even tell AJ, which, I dunno, that might be it… I think part of her is in love with him, but she’s too bullheaded to admit it — plus he was dating Jamie at the time. One hit wonder aside, our friendship remains intact, perhaps even closer than we were before. It was a vulnerable moment for both of us, but I don’t think it was a bad thing.” |
