"Trainings over!" The trainer said after he blew on his whistle. Today was not a very special day, we just had training and later today we were expected in the gym. It was kind of a 'rest' day, since tomorrow will be very important, because we will be playing our official first match of this WorldCup. We were in Group C with France, Australia and Serbia. Our first match was against Australia tomorrow and I was a bit nervous honestly.

Before I could think further, my eyes got covered with someone's hands. "Guess who it is?" I laughed because he tried to distort his voice.

"Hmm, I think... Chillyyy." The hands got of my face and when I turned around I was indeed accompanied by Ben.

"Hi 007." He said when he put his arm around my shoulder. It's a funny story why he called me like that. Yesterday when everyone calmed down after the movie, people started to leave to their room and I was left with Ben, Declan and Mason. We just talked for some time. Ben and me started a inside joke because he said that he would've been the perfect James Bond, which I don't agree with. He didn't gave up, so instead he called me his 007. "It's just a number." He quoted from the movie. I laughed with him. Declan and Mason were also still there, Declan joined our fantasy and wanted the role of Q.

"Since when are you a computer nerd?" We all laughed at Mason's comment.

"Well, Mason, you're Safin." Declan said. I tried my best to hold in my laughter, but when Ben started to laugh I couldn't keep it in.

He released some air to show his irritation. "I think it's time to go to bed. Night everyone."

"Don't get a nightmare." Declan said.

Mason only responded with his middle finger just before he walked out of the room. We all started laughing again. I really try to figure him out, but something sees off. I can't get my finger on it. We didn't really share contact that evening, only when he walked into the room before the movie. That was a weird moment though. When I tried to hold in my laughter, a sound escaped my mouth. He heard it and he started to look my straight in the eyes. Was he trying to intimidate me again? Now I wanted to be the strong one and keep the eye contact. I raised my eyebrows to challenge him, but he broke the eye contact shortly after when he rolled his eyes in response. The rest of the evening we shared like no contact with each other.

I spent some time in my room, not really wanting to do anything. I was scrolling through my Instagram when I saw that F1 posted some content of today. I realized it was already friday today. Apparently FP1 finished like 30 minutes ago. Mostly the drivers have a bit of spare time in between the Free Practices, so I went to my contacts and facetimed Lando. Within a few seconds his sweaty head appeared on my screen.

"Damn, you're sweaty." I joked.

"Well, hello to you too. You've seen me like this before." He ruffled through his hair, not being content with it.

"I had training during FP1, how did it go?" I asked, not going further into his statement.

"Hmm, it went okay. The car felt a bit difficult in Eau Rouge and some other corners, but it's just the first training." Lando answered. He learned me that Eau Rouge was one of the most known corners in Formula One. I went to the Belgian Grand Prix before, because our mom's nationality is Belgian. She sometimes tried to learn us Dutch/Flemish, but it was such a hard language.

"Oh, I completely forgot to ask you this. Is it okay if I bring 3 plus ones to Holland?" I asked shyly, biting my lip.

"Did miss make some new friends? Of course you can, I will say it to Charlotte. She will be sending all the info over mail." Lando answered.

"Thank you so much. I'm really excited to see you race again."

"I'm excited as well. Who will you bring?" Lando asked very curious.

"Ayla of course, but also Declan and Mason." I saw his eyes widened by the mention of their names. "What?" I laughed.

"Mason is really coming along? With Declan?"

"Yeah, I'm really clicking with Declan and I told Mason that you would like if he also came."

"Wow, hold up. I said that because I think you 2 are something. How is it even going between you two?"

"Well, weird." I sighed. "I have the feeling he's hiding something, but still the feeling he just hates me. When there's people around, he acts really mean towards me, but when we're alone, he acts like flirty. I really don't know how to think about him."

"Hmm, that's indeed weird. First of all, I don't like that he's mean to you. And it feels weird to say this, but still I could see you guys together, but if he's hiding something he needs to open up first."

"My brother could see his sister with a footballer, that's new." I laughed. "If I hear you talking about me being in a relationship, it feels not right. I don't know. When it comes to relationships I'm still so insecure about myself. He's really handsome, but if he had a bit more of a caring personality, I would totally fall for him."

"I understand you. Don't get him playing around in your head. If he really is hiding something and he wants to talk to you, he needs to open up first. And if he doesn't open up, then he really missed a beautiful woman. Show him your powerful side, Bryn." I started to blush after Lando's words. People don't know this side of him as he only does this towards me. On tv he's always the joker and he also was at home, but Lando had a way with words when it came to me. I really love him.

"Thank you Lan, I will keep you updated on the situation okay? I'm expected in the gym in 10 minutes."

"All good. Good luck, send me a text or call me before and after the match tomorrow." I smiled, he always remembers when I had some important days.

"Good luck to you as well. Don't race too hard." I winked. "I will try to watch the qualifying tomorrow." We said our love you's to each other and hang up.

I still had my England training kit on, so I didn't have to change. The only thing I did was putting in. a new ponytail, because many plucks of hair escaped the rubber band. I saw that it was 3.25pm which meant I had to leave to the gym.

I left the room and walked to the gym, most of the lads already present. Ben and Mason were joking around as well as Declan and Jesse. "Weirdo's" I heard Marcus mumble next to me.

"For real." I laughed, which got Declan and Jesse turning towards me.

"I really thought you'd be late." Jesse said.

"Well, not my fault. Lando kept talking. I realized it was Friday, so I called him after the first practice."

"Oh of course! Qualifying is tomorrow, right?" Jesse questioned.

"Yeah, it is. I'll try to watch it, because it's before our match."

"Maybe you can watch it with the other F1 fan in this room." Declan laughed.

"And who would that be?" When I said that, Declan turned his head to the two boys, still fooling around.

"Money Mase."

"Oh god." I mumbled. "I think I will watch alone. He hates me and because of that, I don't need contact with him." My eyes made contact with Declan's. Something in his eyes told me that I couldn't figure out.

"Time to train!" The trainer said before one of us could talk.
