Y/n: I tried so many times, but it never reached you. You always went back into the overprotective mode. Especially when George was the topic

*And again you see the muscles tighten underneath the skin of Max*

Y/n: See, that's what I'm talking about

*You point at his neck, where the muscles are tightened*

Max: I can't help it Y/n. I still don't think he's the right person for you

Y/n: But that's your opinion. It's my life we're talking about. Let me figure it out on my own. And if it goes wrong, I'll come back in tears, admitting you were right all along and that I was wrong for not listening. But let me try at least. Let me make my own mistakes

*You swollow to get rid of the feeling of crying*

Y/n: Just be a little supportive... Only a bit...

*Max takes a deep breath and crosses his arms*

Alex: That's the least you can do Max

*You look beside you and notice Alex is still there. You totally forgot he was standing there all the time along*

*Max looks at Alex first, but turns his head towards you secondly*

Max: Okay, I'll try. I'll try to be supportive.

Alex: And you'll back off a bit? Giving her some freedom to figure things out on her own?

*Max nods*

Max: That's for sure. I don't want to suffocate you Y/n... I never intended to do...

Y/n: I know... You always try to do what's best for me

*You walk over to him and wrap your arms around him*

*Max is overwhelmed for a bit, so it takes a second before he wraps his arms around you as well*

Max whispers: I'll try to do better Y/n...

Y/n whispers: It's okay Max... It's okay...

*You let your brother go and step back again*

Y/n: But please apologize to Lando. He didn't deserve any of this

Max: Yes, I know. I'll walk over to him right away

*A careful smile appears on your face*

Y/n: That would be lovely

Max: Simply lovely...

*Max smiles at you and decides to turn around and to walk over to the McLaren motorhome*

*You cross your arms and look at him as he's walking through the paddock, while a little smile is on your face*

*Alex steps next to you and watches Max leaving as well*

Alex: You're a wizard

*You chuckle because of his comment*

Y/n: A wizard?

Alex: Yes. It was like the little boy inside of him came out as soon as you started talking about feelings

Y/n: So that makes me a wizard?

Alex: I've never seen someone taming Max like that before, so yes.

Y/n: Well, I'm glad we cleared this part up. Now I have to figure out so much more...

Alex: Do you need a helping hand?

Y/n: Actually, yes. I've got one question

*Alex opens his arms*

Alex: Shoot

Y/n: Did you speak to George today?

Alex: Hmm, not really. Why?

Y/n: Did you notiva anything that was off...?

Alex: Yes. It kind of looked like he was in a different world today. He was distant

*So you were right. Something is wrong*
