"Emma open those pretty eyes for me" I heard some say in the distance.
I felt someone lightly tapping my cheeks.
I groaned.
"Please Em, I need to make sure you are okay" I heard someone say a little bit closer.
"Lando you need to go soon, your flight is leaving soon" I heard a female voice say.
What fucking flight?
"I won't go until she wakes up, I can go to the airport later" I heard Lando say.
Someone shook me harder and lightly tapped my cheeks again.
I groaned once more.
"Fuck off" I said.
"Emma, open your eyes. We need you to drink water" Lando said.
"No" I whispered and slowly blinked and looked around the room.
I was in my bed I laid flat down and Lando stood next to me.
"Thank god, you were sleeping deep" he said.
Ava sat next to me on the other side of the bed.
"What happened?" I asked.
Lando shrugged.
"You tell me, you were sleeping in the bathroom with a bottle of red wine"
I slapped a hand on my forehead.
"I hope it wasn't the french one"
"Oh it was" Lando said.
"Fuck me, that was the most expensive one in the cabinet" I said.
"How much did I drink?"
"You don't know?" Ava asked.
"No I feel asleep" I said.
"Ah, that explains a lot. It was maybe four long sips"
I slowly sat up.
"You okay?" Lando asked me.
I nodded.
But my back was killing me.
My own fault for falling asleep in the bathroom.
"I am sorry that I got you guys in this mess" I said rubbing my eyes.
"You need to catch your flight" I added looking at Lando.
"No don't worry about it, we are here for you" He said.
"It was the interview wasn't it?" Ava asked.
I sighed.
"I know it isn't supposed to affect me but it definitely did" I said while I looked down pulling my knees up to my chest.
Ava gave me a needed hug and I hugged back.
"You handled that as a pro, she is banned from the paddock and the interview isn't published. You need to ignore her, you are here because you are so talented everyone sees that. Don't worry. Christian made sure that the interviewster was fired. They all have your back, you can always come to one of us and we will always help you" Ava said.
She hold my cheeks until I nodded.
"Thank you" I said.
"No problem. I unfortunately have to go to catch my plane but if you need me, you have my phone number" she said smiling.
"Thank you again, and same goes for you" I said.
She smiled widely and left my hotel room leaving me and Lando alone.
