Secrets with Wolff - Max Verstappen

32.

We've made it to Canada for the next race. I haven't talked to Lando since he kicked me out, I stayed with Max for a couple of days.

I promised myself to keep my head high and I walked through the paddock like that. I saw Max running through the paddock, he was clearly too late again. I chuckled while I walked in the media center.
Olivia wasn't here yet, she was normally the first one to arrive.
I sat down and looked through my emails. There was nothing special for me, I guess Olivia had to do most of the interviews for this Grand Prix.

I looked up as Olivia walked in, her hair was a mess and she was wearing the same clothes as yesterday.
"Sorry we overslept" she said while sitting down in front of me.
"We? Who is the other one?" I put my head on my hand and looked at her.
"Uh.. just someone who works for the Red Bull team" her cheeks turned red as she looked at me. So it's someone who works for Red Bull.
"It's not Christian right?" I laughed and she rolled her eyes. I guess that's a no. I was happy she found someone.

It was boring around the paddock. Olivia did most of the interviews, so I had time to study but I couldn't concentrate. I was thinking about the last couple of days with Max. I never realized how much I missed being around him, even if it was just as friends.
I needed to talk to Lando though. I understand that he was mad but c'mon he never texted me to ask if I was okay.
My phone started buzzing a few times. I quickly looked at it.

Charlotte ❤️ : Guess who's coming to the British Grand Prix?

Rylee: uhhhh me?

Charlotte ❤️ : Yes obviously but your favorite Ferrari girls will be there too!

Rylee: yaaay! I call a girls night! I am excited!

I put my phone down smiling. Isa and Charlotte were coming to the next Grand Prix. I wondered if Charlotte made up with Charles.

I walked up to Lando's hospitality. I wanted to wish him good luck like I did before every race. I didn't care if we were fighting or not.
I knocked on his door and walked in. My heart stopped when I saw him. He was kissing some other girl. I think I looked at them for a couple of seconds before turning around and walking out. "Wait Rylee it's not.." he tried to defend his actions but I just started shaking my head while walking faster.
I guess that's why he didn't text or call me, he was too busy kissing someone else.

Once again I bumped into someone. I could already guess who it was. I looked up and it was exactly who I thought it would be. "Hey are you okay?" Max looked so comfy, he was wearing his Red Bull jacket which was zipped all the way up. "Yes thank you"
I didn't want to cry. I didn't want him to see me cry, but he was so soft lately and it wasn't because of me. "I can see you're not okay though" I looked in
his eyes and he looked into mine. For a moment, time stopped and I didn't care about anything else.
"Ryls?" He snapped me out of my thoughts.
I started to love that nickname. "Can I just hide in your drivers room please? I really don't want to see anyone" he nodded without asking any more questions. "Of course, I really need to go to the garage right now, but make yourself at home" he smiled, putting his hand on my arm and started walking away.

A few Red Bull engineers smiled and greeted me as I walked in their hospitality. It still impresses me that they really don't care about me walking through their hospitality. I was a reporter and a Wolff, but I guess they trusted me.
I walked in Max's room and fell down on the couch.
I turned on the tv and decided to watch the race.
His room was clean and quite empty. I walked around, opening a couple of drawers. Clothes, Red Bulls and a lot of condoms. I closed the drawer quickly. Did he have sex with girls in here? We never had sex here.
I sat down at the couch again, I guess he really was dating someone else.

Max was standing on his car with his fists in the air.
He won again. Lando on the other hand, did a terrible job and ended P15. I wasn't angry about that. I guess her kisses didn't work like mine.
