Just Friends // Pierre Gasly

Questions

Y/n: Pierre? Answer the question
Pierre: Not really.
Y/n: That's not a no...
Pierre: We did talk for a few months after the breakup but every time she tried to win me back so I broke contact. But where's this coming from?
Y/n: Nowhere... I was just-
Pierre: Y/n? Did Abbie say something to you?
Y/n: No, I was just wondering. So you never saw her again until today?
Pierre: Um well it's a little complicated...
Y/n: -I see.

Charles: -If it isn't the race winner!
Max: Woah, we walked in to some tension. Should we come back?
Y/n: No we're finished talking. I was just about to go grab us drinks. Kelly you coming?
Kelly: Of course

The two girls walked towards the bar as the boys sat down next to Pierre.

Charles: So what did we just walk into?
Pierre: She was asking about Abbie. I don't know, I think she said something to her.
Max: Like?
Pierre: Just, something that's making Y/n question things now.
Charles: What is there to question?
Pierre: Whether we've been in contact.
Max: Have you?
Pierre: No. I have no time for her games.
Charles: So what's the with the worry?
Pierre: It's a little more complicated than simply not seeing each other...
Charles: How so?
Pierre: Well we ran into each other in Milan...
Charles: What did you do Pierre?
Max: Don't tell me-
Pierre: -I did nothing. In any case Y/n and I weren't dating then. But it doesn't matter because nothing happened it's just that I don't want Y/n to think that's why I was set to stay in Milan that week.

The table went quiet and Charles started getting angry.

Charles: Please tell me that photo really was old?
Pierre: No no, that was an old photo. You really think another lady other than Y/n can make me smile like that?
Max: That's sweet.
Charles: But you should tell her before she finds out herself.
Pierre: I know. I'll tell her the truth. I just love her and don't want her overthinking everything.
Max: I'd like to add that she loves you too and if she's pissed you didn't tell her for a day or two let her be. I think you need to clear things up and if you suspect Abbie is behind this, find out what she said.
Pierre: I will...

Meanwhile

Kelly: So what was happening when we arrived?
Y/n: Oh, I was just... okay Pierre's ex said something that got to me more than it should've. She said he lies and I shouldn't trust him. So I was questioning their relationship when you guys arrived.
Kelly: It just sounds like a jealous ex to me. Don't overthink it. You know Pierre.
Y/n: Yeah... shall we head back?
Kelly: Let's go.

Once they got back and sat down Y/n gave Pierre a quick look before looking away.

Pierre: Y/n? Can we please go talk. Outside.
Y/n: Okay...
***
Pierre: I need you to know why I said it was complicated.
Y/n: Okay?
Pierre: It... look... in Milan we ran into each other.
Y/n: Oh...

Her voice sounded despondent and she looked to the floor.

Pierre: Y/n I'm sorry, I should've told you. We weren't dating but I knew you liked me and I knew I like- loved you so I avoided the topic. I didn't want to lose you by having you think I kissed you then ran off to my ex.
Y/n: I never would've thought that.
Pierre: Come on, don't lie to yourself.
Y/n: Haha, okay. I would've been upset. So it was just the once?
Pierre: Yeah. Just the one day then that's when I knew she was really irritating and I only wanted it to be you with me.
Y/n: Well thanks for telling me. You should've told me sooner though.
Pierre: I know.

Y/n looked up at him and gave a soft smile that faded very quickly and turned into concern.

Y/n: Abbie did say something to me.
Pierre: She did?
Y/n: Yeah... and it got to me, it still does.
Pierre: What did she say?
Y/n: That I shouldn't trust you. That you played her.
Pierre: Never. I wouldn't do that. She played me, the whole time she was in it for the fame and I thought we had something.
Y/n: Oh, I'm sorry Pierre. I don't know why I listened to her I-
Pierre: -because you're worried. I won't hurt you Y/n. I love you too much to even consider it. Which is why I never told you about Milan.
Y/n: I'm kinda mad you didn't because when I saw her I could've ignored her A LOT easier. Oh well, like I said I'll get over it sooner or later, let's go join the others now.

As she turned to walk towards the door Pierre grabbed her waist and spun her into him. He slowly backed her into the wall. He began to speak just above a whisper.

Pierre: I'm sorry. Don't stay mad at me too long ma Chérie.
He looked into her eyes and she immediately felt weaker.
Y/n: Don't- you're stupid puppy eyes. I love you Pierre. You're forgiven. Just don't hide things from me that I should know again.

They shared a quick kiss before returning.
As they opened the door Pierre heard Y/n say something.

Y/n: What the hell is she doing there?

He turned and noticed Abbie standing at the table with Max and Charles and Kelly.

Pierre: I'll get rid of her. First, let's find out why she lied.
Y/n: Okay. Let's go.

Pierre: Abbie, what are you doing here?
Abbie: I was just here with a few reporters for dinner before we go out. Care to join us?
Pierre: I'd prefer to keep my circle free from any digging reporters thanks. In any case, after dinner I was going to head back to the hotel. With my girlfriend. He placed his hand around Y/n's waist now pulling her closer.
Which leads me to ask why you lied to her about what happened?

Charles and Max shared a look. Kelly explained quietly what had happened.

Abbie: Oh, well I never really.
Pierre: No you did. I already told her how you played me. Not the other way around.
Abbie: So cheating doesn't count as playing?
Pierre: When did I ever?!
Abbie: Summer Pierre! Monaco was supposed to be a weekend trip!
Pierre: For the millionth time, we were broken up! You surely cannot STILL think I have any feelings for you. I left you months before summer.
Abbie: But we still spoke every day.
Pierre: Because YOU wouldn't stop messaging me!
Abbie: But-
Max: -Oh look, it's our waiter. Bye Abbie.
Abbie looked at Pierre for assistance but he simply agreed with Max.
Pierre: Bye.
Abbie: Yeah, bye.

She gave the couple a look before she walked away. Y/n sighed and went and sat down next to Charles. She rested her head on his shoulder.

Y/n: I need another drink.
Kelly: Luckily you got some before you left.
Y/n: Don't let me get drunk. She looked at Charles.
Charles: Haha, you'll be fine...

Max: -Okay. Let's liven this up a bit. Pierre won tonight. Let's have fun!
Y/n: I agree. A toast, to my wonderful boyfriend, the Austrian Grand Prix winner! Who broke Max's dominance.

She winked at Max who laughed and rolled his eyes. They had order and once they finished dinner they headed back to the hotel bar. Kelly had a job first thing so headed back to her room. They were all pretty drunk by the time they called it a night at the bar and decided it best they go to their rooms...
