Pov Esteban

Angrily Esteban threw his phone onto the hotelbed. He couldn't believe that people would write nasty stuff about Mick. Mick was one of the most wholesome people Esteban had ever met. In his eyes Mick deserved the world.

People however only ever saw his dad. They never saw Mick as a person and being a good friend to Mick of course Esteban had noticed that all these comments about Mick being a failure and not worthy of Formula 1 didn't leave Mick unfazed.

As much as Mick didn't show any of that to the media, it wasn't hard to notice that Mick was more quiet and unsure of himself if you knew him personally.

It broke Esteban's heart to see Mick like that. He wanted to tell these people to fuck off and take all off Mick's pain away. Mick deserved the world and Esteban was Ready to give it to him, but the break-up with Mick's girlfriend was barely a month ago and Esteban wasn't even sure MIck was attracted to men.

Right now his priority was to cheer Mick up and give him back some of his self-confidence.

So Esteban called Lance and told him about his plan, he also told the other one to invite Seb. He wanted all of Mick's close friends on the grid to be there.

There wasn't going to be a lot of time to do something special, but Esteban figured a nice dinner with all of these people would at least put a smile on Mick's face.

Without thinking twice Esteban booked them a table in a near italian restaurant simply because he knew Mick loved italian food. He booked the table late enough that all of them should be done with their Team duties and early enough that they wouldn't be overly tired tomorrow on quali day.

Later in the evening he was standing in front of Mick's hotel room and trying to find the courage to knock. When he eventually managed to do that Mick opened the door almost immeadiatley. A confused look displayed on his face.

However once he recognized Esteban the confused look turned into a smile.

"What are you doing here?"

"Kidnapping you. Put on something fancy come on."

Esteban was oblivious to the blush that spread across Mick's cheeks. He simply hurried the other one so they wouldn't be late.

When Mick started undressing in front of him though he quickly forgot about that task. He watched as Mick's shoulders and back flexed while putting on a dress shirt. Definetly not good. Nope, Esteban was totally unaffected by this.

Obviously that was a lie. It was a wonder he wasn't drooling yet.

5 Minutes later Mick stood in front of him with a wide grin. At least he seemed to be in a way better mood now.

"Okay I'm ready to go."

Esteban smiled back and they made their way to his car. They spent the drive singing to the songs on the radio and laughing at each others voice.

When they reached the restaurant Esteban unconsciously took Mick's hand and pulled him along. He kept rambling about the band that just played on the radio not noticing how Mick was looking at their hands in shock.

He told the waiter his name who let them to a table. Lance and Seb were already there and when Mick spotted them his face fell.

"Surprise!"

Esteban exclaimed happily, turning around to Mick. The smile on Mick's face was more forced than real now and his blue eyes had lost that happy, excited spark.

"Hello everyone. Imma have to use the toilet since i was not allowed to before we left."

With a frown forming on his face Esteban watched as Mick walked away from their table.

"Is he okay? He seemed so happy in the car. I really thought this would cheer him up a little bit"

Designated Esteband fell down onto the chair next to Lance. He didn't understand why Mick's mood had changed so quickly. He just wanted the younger one to be happy. He looked up again when Seb stood up from the table.

"Why don't you order something to drink and i'll go check on Mick"

Esteban wanted to protest but Lance was already nodding and Seb walked into the direction Mick had left into. A sigh escaped his mouth. Maybe it was a bad idea after all.

POV Mick

For fuck sake Mick of course it wasn't going to be a date why the hell would you expect that. He doesn't like you that way.

He had to excuse himself before he broke down crying in the middle of the restaurant. Now he was sitting on of the closed toilets, locked in, silently letting the tears fall down his face.

Seb's voice and a soft knock on his door made him quickly rubb his hands over his face in an attempt to get rid of the tears that were falling down his face, before he opened the door.

The second Seb opened his eyes with a sympathetic smile the tears were falling again. He crushed into his friend's arms and  buried his face into Seb's neck.

"You know I'm pretty sure Esteban is feeling just as shitty as you are right now.

He organised all of this in an attempt to make you feel better and when you left the table with that devastated look he wanted to run after you immeadiately."

"I'm just a friend to him though. Fuck when he said he wanted to take me out to dinner i thought we were going on a date and then you and Lance were there and i just... i don't know."

Seb was rubbing his back reassuringly and listening to his complaints.

"Mick that man looks at you like you hung the stars, moon and sun. I think he just never acted on it because he thought you were sulking because of the breakup"

Mick wasn't sure what to make out of these words. He had broken up with his girlfriend because he was in love with someone else and she deserved better than that. That someone else was Esteban and surely the other didn't return his feelings.

"How about we go back to the table I take Lance with me and the two of you can have a chat?"

A panicked look appeared on Mick's face. Seb either didn't notice, which Mick couldn't believe or he simply ignored it.

Seconds later both Lance and Seb had left and he was sitting alone at the table with Esteban and awkward silence between them.

"I wanted to tell you..."

"I wanted to apologise for..."

They both started at the same time.

"You go first" Esteban said eventually.

Mick just looked at him for a moment before looking down at his hands that were fiddling with the hem of his shirt.

"I'm in love with you."

Esteban didn't reply and Mick mentally prepared himself for the apologetic look before looking up, but Esteban was just staring at him with his mouth open and eyes wide.

"You ...what. i mean me too. Like ... oh my god ... I'm not in love with me but like in love with you. Shit I'm so sorry this is so awkward
