It was a really fun night with Miles. At first we had a serious conversation about everything that happened, he just listened to me and that was exactly what I needed in that moment. Lando always avoided those talks.
"Thank you so much for listening Miles, I really appreciate it" I said as I grabbed my drink. "I will always be here for you Skye" I put my drink down and he grabbed my hand quickly. "How's Lando doing?" I didn't expect him to ask about Lando. I wasn't really thinking about him to be honest. "He isn't really talking about it at all, I don't think he's really bothered by it" I looked down, I wish Lando opened up a little bit so we could talk about it. "Yeah probably not, he decided to stay for the podium celebrations. I would've parked my car and flew to you immediately" I bit my lip. He was right, Lando decided to jump in his car and finish the race. I guess he showed what he thought was the most important thing: Racing, not me, not us.

Lando 🧡 :

It maybe wasn't smart to post that picture. I knew Lando would be mad about that but I didn't care. It felt nice to actually talk to someone about it. It actually made me feel better.
I looked at the ceiling as I was laying in bed. I was totally alone right now. I could feel the tears on cheeks. Why wasn't Lando as hurt as I was? I fell asleep with tears in my eyes.

I was fixing my mascara. I had to be ready to go out there again. To act professional again. I sighed, maybe I went back to work way too soon. I looked at myself in the mirror. "C'mon you can do this" I said to myself.
Not much later I was walking through the paddock with a fake smile. I could feel someone grab my arm and pulling me to the side of the hospitality. It was Lando. His eyes were puffy and red. "Are you okay?" I raised my eyebrow. He didn't look good at all. "Where were you last night?" I chuckled a little. "Why do you care so much?" He shook his head. "Because I'm your boyfriend and I care about you" his voice sounded rough, raspy almost. "Oh now you care" I pulled my arm back. "I was with Miles and it was fun, he actually listened to me" he rolled his eyes and laughed a little. "Because he wants to get in your pants. Open your eyes" I took a step back, I didn't recognize him at all. I just looked at him. "Goodluck today, I hope you'll be on pole. It's all you seem to care about anyway" I said as I walked away. He didn't follow me, he didn't stop me which said enough.
I walked back to the Red Bull garage. I walked to Kelly. "Hey babe, the girls are in for that girlsnight. Just a movie and some drinks at my room?" She turned to me and I nodded. I was definitely in the mood for some girltime. "How is Lando holding up?" I shrugged my shoulders. "He seems fine, he never talks about it" or not with me atleast. "Everyone deals with this in their own way" she put her hand on my back and stroke it softly. "Hi Skye, thanks again for helping me last night" Miles walked up to us and kissed my cheek. I saw how confused Kelly was. She just looked at him up and down.
I wanted to respond but Max walked to us and interrupted us. "Mate don't you have work to do on the other side of the garage?" He looked at Miles, who just nodded and walked off. "Why are you being so rude?" I looked at Max, his arm was around Kelly's waist. "We're paying him to work, not to chat to our girls" I rolled my eyes. Why were these F1 drivers all so jealous when you talked to another guy for a second. They talk to other girls all the time. "Well then I'm gonna work on the other side of the garage as well" I said as I walked away from them. I sat down next to Miles who smiled as he saw me. Atleast he was happy to see me.
I still loved Lando very much, but we just didn't know how to act around each other. He was scared to say the wrong things and I was mad because he chose the podium ceremony and interviews over me. When I needed him the most, he wasn't there.
