away we go • formula 1

our boy russell

We kissed  and I felt like I was 15 again. Only that George got even more attractive and I had  still about zero experience. I knew where this was leading but I felt like it was the right thing to do.
The kissing got more heated and one by one we pulled off each other's clothing until we were just in our undergarments. "Wow.", George hushed. I wrapped my arms around myself feelings bit self conscious about him looking me up and down. I mean I was athletic and everything but he looked like he was carved by the gods. He pulled my hands to the side softly. "Don't do that you are perfect.", he said and kissed me again.  After a while he broke the kiss:"Are you sure about this?", he questioned.
"Yes. 100%.", I looked into his eyes and kissed him.

"You are amazing." George pecked my lips. "No you are.", I smiled the effects of the alcohol have washed away completely. I was still content with what we did. And I got the feeling we both felt like that. "Will you stay?", I asked cuddled into him. "Of course. Who do you think I am?", he chuckled and I shrugged my shoulders. "Love you good night.", he pressed a kiss to my head and we fell asleep.

The next morning I woke up sore. I turned around and saw George still fast asleep. He looked perfect. I always thought I would feel awkward about anything like this but I was just happy. "Stop staring you creep.", George mumbled and my grin grew. "I wasn't staring just admiring.", I said not looking away. He opened his bright eyes and smiled at me. "Morning.", he said and wrapped his arms around me. "Morning.". "Are you ok?", he asked me worry laced his voice. "I'm prefect. Thank you.", I ran my hand through his hair. "Ok. I just wanted to make sure. I wouldn't wanna loose you when I just got you back.", George pushed a strand of my hair back. "You are just a gem and I'm not gonna bolt don't worry.", I whispered. He looked down to my lips and into my eyes again. I took the initiative and kissed him. I felt us both smile in the kiss.

"I like seeing you this happy.", George said while we were making breakfast. Lando texted me earlier that he and Alex were coming for breakfast and we could leave after that. "Thank you for making me happy. You know the night went from pretty darn shit to really really really good.", I said while preparing some eggs. "I aim to please", he said suggestively and wiggled his eyebrows. I had to laugh at his antics. I think I just realised how much I missed George.

"I hope you are clothed - we have arrived.", Lando announced dramatically.  Alex was right behind him rolling his eyes at Lando who was currently having his hand over his eyes. "We are you muppet get in and don't announce it to the whole paddock, will you!", I scolded him and he chuckled. "Was that a confirmation?", Lando asked and looked at George. Our boy Russell just shook his shoulders which to anyone would mean no answer but for Lando it was a definite yes. "Pay up Alex. I said they were gonna do it within a week of reuniting.", Lando boasted. "Lando...", that boy was unbelievable at some times. "What? It's not like he didn't bet.  Alex' guess was 3 weeks.", Lando said and plopped down on the first chair he could find. George laughed at this but I huffed. "Sorry Lin but anyone with eyes could predict that. I mean it was a long time coming.", Alex shrugged and took a seat next to Lando. "I mean they are not wrong.", George spilled and sat down with a smug look on his face.
"I hate all of you.", I said a sat down too.
We all looked at each other and broke into a laughing fit. The breakfast was nice and I enjoyed being with them again. "So how was it?", Lando bluntly asked. I chocked on my coffee and George nearly spit out his egg. "Lando!", I squealed. "What? It's a normal question. It's not like we don't talk about that stuff normally.", he didn't see a problem in this whatsoever. "We'll mate. Maybe because it's never about a person in our group.", George explained. "Yeah well that seems like a you problem.", Lando sat there looking smug. "Well you can keep on waiting. I'm not telling you anything. Pervert.", I announced. I felt George's hand on my leg: "Me neither. A gentleman doesn't kiss and tell.".
"Since when are you a gentleman?", Lando laughed. George brushed that comment off. "But seriously guys. I don't wanna pressure you or anything. But was this a one time thing or do we have to deal with lovey-dovey Lin and George again in the near future?", Alex asked. I looked at George for an answer because I genuinely didn't know. "Well I guess we have to wait and see. But you guys know that I'll always have a soft spot for Linny. Maybe you will and maybe you wont.", George explained.
"10 pounds we get a remake of Ginny", Lando bet Alex. "Ok.", he shook Lando's hand and all I could do I shake my head.

After breakfast we cleaned up and Lando and I decided to leave at 12:00. It was 11:00 a.m. now and I had to pack my stuff. "So I come by to get you later.", Lando said and hugged me. "If he messes this up I'll push him off. I like you happy.", he whispered in my ear. Alex left shortly after realising his flight back was in an hour.
"So.", George said and leaned on my wall. "So.", I said and smiled. "I enjoyed it. And I missed you. I know that you don't like me like that but maybe you find it in your heart to give us another chance?", he came closer with every step. "I missed you too. I didn't know how much until yesterday.", he put his hands on my waist. "I know you like Max but maybe-", I put my finger on his lips to shut him up. "I don't know what I feel for Max anymore. Maybe it was always just infatuation and never anything romantic and that I have to get him out of my mind. But I do know that I like you. And that I can trust you.", I said looking up at him. "So maybe we can try this? I know it's fast but we know each other for like an eternity", he motioned between us and I nodded. "Ok but we gotta take it slow. Like I have to take you out before anything can happen again. And we gotta date and see if it's what we really want.", he explained. "Yes that would be perfect.", I felt kinda nervous about the prospect of all of this.
"I did tell you I wanted to talk to you yesterday. Do you remember that?", he asked still incredibly close to me. "Yes.". "It was actually about visiting Lando, Alex and me until the next Grand Prix or until whenever you have to get to the factory.", he fumbled with his hands. I feel my body grow warm with excitement. "Yes. A 100%.", I grinned.
"All right I'll tell them.", he smiled and hugged me.
We we pulled apart he leaned back in and gave me a kiss. "Kissing is included in dating, right?", he asked and chuckled. "Yes. I think so.", I chuckled.
