We walk off the elevator to find Lando, Daniel, and Max sitting in front of my door waiting for me. "You could've just went in," I say loud enough for them to hear while we came over to them. "It's locked. Obviously we can't go in," Daniel said sarcastically. "I gave you a card," I said as I unlock it with my phone. "She actually did. I remember her talking about it," Lando tells him. I open the door and walked in. They follow me inside and I close the door behind us.

"Snacks and drinks are in the mini fridge if you want some," I tell them as I put my purse down. Thank god this room drowns out the storm. Max goes to ask what I know he's gonna asks so I answer before he could ask, "Yes I do have Red Bull in the fridge." I walk over to my bag and pulled out a dry outfit. Lando hands George his backpack that has a dry outfit as well. "You can take the bathroom first," I said to George. "Thank you," He said.

We quickly change before I sit down at the computer. I pull my phone out and sat it down on the table I type in Twitch's URL and was brought up to a streaming site. I never really went on Twitch before so it's new to me. "Obviously go to Sign Up," Lando instructs while Daniel and Max grab themselves a snack and a drink. George stood next to him I click on sign up. I typed in all the boxes except for the username. "What should my username be?" I asked. "Oh oh oh, um...Little Bean Ricciardo," George says which makes me look at him.

"We never talk about that again," I tell him. "Why? I wanna know!" Max said. "Well, obviously I went back to get her and while we were running to the car she told me to slow down because she was a small little bean," He explains which makes them laugh. "Well, now I'm gonna call you that from now on," Daniel said as he and Max walk over to us. "Succhia un cazzo," I tell him which means 'Suck a dick.' I flipped me the middle finger.

We continue with setting up my account and once I was in it goes back to the main screen. "Now go to the bubble with your profile photo is and click on Creator Dashboard," George says and I do as he says. We start playing around with the settings and getting things set up. Max and Daniel start laughing as they show each other their phones. "What?" George asks looking at them. A few seconds later he laughs with them. I look at them confused. "What?" I ask. "Just a TikTok," Daniel tells me as there was a knock at the door.

"Yo, let me in," Charlie calls out. "I'll grab it," Daniel said and grabs the door. Charlie comes in and walks over to me. "Going live?" Charlie asks. "Yea and if they want they can show me how to use this," I said motioning to the steering wheel. "Why not get Pierre too," She said while wiggling her eyebrows teasingly. "Shut the fuck up. I don't wanna think about him right now," I said which makes her confused. Daniel tells her and she looks at me. "Screw her. You obviously have more chemistry with him than that women," Charlie said. "I'm not getting involved with someone who just got broken up with over text," I tell her.

"Oh c'mon Maddy," She said as she took a photo of Me and Lando working out the last minute kinks. "Let's get the game loaded up on the other screen," I say to myself. I knew what I am doing with pulling up games and playing them. It's more or less the getting the stream pulled up, getting it started, transitions, etc. Lando starts the stream as I go onto Instagram posting on my story a link to it. I have a little over 950k followers. I see that Daniel and George put on their story to join the live as well.

As Lando helps me transition to the other screen people start coming onto the screen. "Okay, hello everyone who's joining," I said. Charlie and George sit on either side of me and watches as comments come rolling in. Lando was standing behind George. "Why isn't the race going? I know that the race gotten cut short and cancelled due to a thunderstorm so sadly we will be not doing this race. But on the good side, I do have a few of the racers with me. Obviously you see George Russell to my left and Lando Norris behind him. Behind me I have Max Verstappen and Daniel Ricciado," I said.

"What are we doing this stream?" Charlie asks since we didn't tell her anything yet. "I was gonna be taught how to play F1 2021...it's 2021 right? or 2020?" I ask looking between Lando and George. "2021," Lando and Max said in unison which makes us all chuckle. "Yea, so I'll be learning how to play F1 2021, and then after we could chill for a bit and you can ask anyone of us questions," I said to chat. "Someone asked when will you play with the drivers who are already on twitch," Daniel says. I turn to him.

"Are you on my live?" I ask with a smile. "Yea, we are reading what people are asking," He said. "You guys are stupid," I said as I turn back to the screen. "Anyways, I'll figure that out with the other gentlemen when they wanna get on a discord call and play for a bit. But uh, let's get started on this," I said as I start F1 2021.

The next day I woke up early to see it was sunny and all blue sky except for a few random clouds floating by. I check my phone to see an email from the animal shelter that I emailed last night about coming down and volunteering there for a few hours before going to get a tattoo done and then either fly home or go straight to the Netherlands and spending the week there relaxing and having fun before the Grand Prix.

I heard a knock at the door and I get out of bed. I rub my eyes groggily as I stumble my way to the door. I unlock it and open it. "Yes?" I question still half asleep. "Can I tag along with you for the week?" I heard his voice say. I look at Pierre to see him holding his bags with him. He looks slightly distraught and upset. I knew that him and his girl were not in the best of place even before the incident had happened but even through all that I could sense he was conflicted about something. But I didn't push it because I didn't want to make him upset even further.

"Yea sure. Come in, I just gotta get dressed and then we can get going. I have some stuff to do today. You can come if you want," I said as I open my door wider for him to come in. "Yea, if you're comfortable with that," He replies as he comes into the hotel room. "I'm okay with it," I said half truthfully.
