Two Calls, One Broken Heart...

Y/n: "H-hey.."
~ "Y/n? Are you okay? What's up?"
Y/n: "I hope it's okay that I'm calling... I just really needed a friend right now."
~ "Of course it's okay! I did tell you to use my number. What's happened?"
Y/n: "He broke my heart Kelly... Into a million pieces..."
K: "What?! Wait don't tell me, I'm coming over right now."
Y/n: "Aren't you with Max?"
K: "He'll be in press meetings all afternoon. In any case I'll let him know you need me."
Y/n: "Thanks Kelly. See you soon."

———————————

Kelly immediately gathered her things from the Red Bull motorhome and headed to tell Max she will be going for a bit.
She saw Max talking with Charles as they waited for the press conference.

K: "Hey Max, Charles. Listen I gotta run, I'll be back after your meetings."
M: "Don't stress! I'll meet you back home, no need to come all the way down here again. Where you off to?"
K: "Um... A friend needs me right now."
C: "Kelly? If you see y/n any time please just check that she's okay."
K: "Yeah, sure."

Kelly left for Y/n and couldn't understand what Charles would've done. He cares so much for her.

———————————

Y/n was waiting for Kelly to arrive. Ignoring every call of Charles'. She couldn't be bothered by what he has to say right now, maybe tomorrow but not now. She answered when she saw Max's name:

M: "Y/n! Hi! I wanted to know if everything's okay with you and Charles."

Y/n: "What do you mean?"

M: "We all know about you two, he's been so happy since you came for us not to know. He's even asked Kelly to check on you on her way out. But now, even though he won, he just isn't happy. He's actually near damn crying and not in a good way."

Y/n let out a small cry.
M: "Y/n?"

Y/n: "Max... Kelly is on her way to me... He broke my heart... I just ran away from the race and him... we haven't spoken since... ask him to explain."

M: "Oh, y/n, please don't cry. Okay talk with Kelly I'll talk to Charles and I'll come as soon as I'm done here. And before you ask I won't tell Charles."

Y/n: "Thanks Max... I'll umm- I'll see you later. Kelly just got here..."
