F1 One Shots

#15 Lewis - Rival for heart

ANGELINA POV: Once again I accompany my dear boyfriend for almost 3 years, Lewis, to a race weekend. This time it's first weekend in Austria, and second race in first this year, tripple header. Even though it's almost like home for Red bull, I think we enjoy it so far... The car has good pace, so Lew and the team are almost calm about the Quali and race next folowing days... I say almost, because in Monaco and Baku they didn't have the right pace, and now the rivaly between them and Red Bull increased even more... France week ago, proved that very much, as the Bulls squezzed Lew in second place, as Max got first, and Sergio 3rd, at the same time, pushing Valtteri back to 4th.
Right now it's break between FP1 and 2 in Friday afternoon and I decided to have short walk around the paddok. I really enjoy being here, the weather is nice and people are kind, so the atmosphere is quite good. I have sun glasses on my eyes, because the sun shines brightly, but it's not terribly hot, so it's cool...
As Lewis' girlfriend and motocross driver myself, I get a lot of recognition, so every now and then I'm needed to speek a few words to some journalists, take a few pictures, or sign some things to happy fans. It doesn't annoy me much, because I grow used to it by now...
Normally I would stay in the garage and actively check on how my baby is doing, but now I need a break.. It's not like that, the sound and all the rush is bothering me, but everyone needs a break from time to time. Besides, they need free space as a teem, and not constant watch from other people... Right now Lewis needs to focus and take 110% from that car, to be sure and confident for next two days, to score good points for the team and himself, to win. And I'll come back there when FP2 starts, so I'm not gonna miss a thing!
Just as I gave back notebook and pen to a young fan with light smile, I heard familiar voice behind me:
-Ey, Angie! Wait up!- I turned around and saw no other than possible Lews' teammate for next season, and currently Williams first driver, George Russell. The Brit joged to me with a huge smile on his face, which I returned and secured more Lewis' hoodie around me.
-Hello to you to George- I told him warmly.
-How are you?
-I'm good, thanks. You?
-I'm fine, thank you- he replied and then I resumed my walking, still talking with him. It was almost nice conversation, but every passing minute I started to grow more irritated by how Russell was refering to the team, to Lewis, and how he's gonna be his teammate next year, because Valtteri stopped being enough for Toto and the team... He sounded so full of himself, and selfish, as if Mercedes wasn't able to win constructors Championship without him!?
We strolled around the paddok, until we stopped in front of Mercedes garage, Lewis's side to be exact.
-Well Angie, I was wondering if... You'd go out with me sometime?- George asked, not innocent at all, with huge grin on his face. I could see it even though his mask.
-No George. I have a boyfriend and I'm not going to change that because you grow attraction to me- I told him sternly, and folded my arms on my chest.
-It'd be fun! Don't make me to beg you!- he was still pushing.
-No. That's my final answer. NO George. I WON'T go out with you EVER!- I made myself clear, above his arm seeing stern expresion on Lewis face.
-Why? What Hamilton has, that I don't!?- he whined, visibly irritated by my response.
-I'm not gonna answer that question...- I dodged it with my voice calm and cold as ice, still able to contain my anger... Not for long though...
-Why then you reject me?!
-Because I don't even like you! I see you just as Lew's coleague from the grid, nothing more George! We're not even friends, and I highly doubt it, we EVER will become ones, when I hear you saying all those bad and unflattering things about Val, Lew or the team! So please Russell, just go, get back to Williams garage and fuck off!- I started to loose my temper...
-But Angie..!?- he whinned, not liking that at all, what I just said.
-Lady said to fuck off- Lewis spoke up, comming to us, visibly annoyed by younger driver manner. That made George froze in place with eyes opened wide as tea cups. Lew walked around him and stood beside me, to pull me to his chest by my waist.
-So for final time, go away George, and never ask that question again!- I told him politely, and Russell finally did just like he was told, not looking back.
We stood there for couple of seconds more, looking after him in silence, as if we were checking him.
-Are you all right?- Lewis asked with concern, looking at me.
-Yeah, I'm fine. He just pissed me off...- I sighed and shooke my head a little, still in slight disbelieve that George actually did that...
-OK- Lew sighed himself, and placed kiss on the crown of my head, pulling me even closer by my hip -I don't like that situation...
-I don't like it either, trust me- I agreed and looked him in the eye -I love you, you know that?- I assured him and cupped his cheek in my hand.
-I know. And I love you too, Princess...- he agreed and then kissed me softly and lovingly, but full of passion. That adoration in his gaze was another proof, how much we care for one another....
After few seconds we broke the kiss and smiled to each other widely.
-Shall we get inside and actually escape next possible encounter with Russell?- Lew joked, pulling his mask back on.
-Gladly- I agreed, and we did just that, still embraced in one other arms.
Soon after that it was time for FP2, so we let go of each other in order for Lewis to get ready. After that I gave him our ritual "good luck kiss", and then I stayed back in the garage, with headphones on my ears, while Lew drove off to the track, to complete some laps. I hope he's not gonna cause Williams any trouble for what George said...?!
THE END

This time, George is in love with Angelina...
I hope you won't kill me for potraiting him like that!
Have a nice day! / Goodnight!
