*You smile at George, even though tears are still running down your face*

George: I don't mind about Max. I know him, and he only wants the best for you, because you deserve the best.

George: Now you're opening up to me, I have some explaining to do as well...

*You grab his hand tighter*

Y/n: George... You don't have to...

George: No, I want to. I want us to become closer. You need to know the truth

George: You see, I haven't been in the best place lately

George: But when I saw you and the flash, I knew I had to fix things. You opened my eyes again

Y/n: But I didn't do that much...?

George: You did. Just your attendance made me feel like I wanted to live again. I wanted to feel free again, just like you felt in Scotland

George: That's why I went back to England. I needed to face one of my biggest regrets in life, even though I really didn't want to

*You sqeesh in his hand to encourage him to tell more, while you give him a little smile as well*

George: I know it will haunt me for the rest of my life, but it won't be as heavy as before. And that's because of you Y/n...

Y/n whispers: George....

George: It's all because of you

George: Since I saw that smile of yours, I knew I had to fix things. So here I am. A better man, trying to figure out so much, but one thing is certain

George: I need you in my life Y/n. I need you

*You don't know what to say*

*His words were beautiful, but they don't hit the wall in your brains*

*Like something is holding it up in the air*

Goerge: Y/n? Are you alright?

Y/n: Yeah, it's just...

*You wipe away the tears from your cheeks*

George: You don't know if you need me in your life, right?

*And the tears are starting to fall again*

Y/n: I'm sorry George, I just don't know what to think right now

Y/n: I'm an emotional wreck and there is so much going on inside my head

George: I understand. These past days have been hard on you

George: But let me prove it to you these upcoming days. We're much stronger when we're together

Y/n: George.... 

Y/n: You know I'm only going to be around this race weekend right? Then I have to head home to take care of some loose ends

George: I know, but we'll call and text then. I'm not going to lose touch with you.

George: We still have these upcoming days. I'll try to make things work Y/n. Believe me
