Weeks had gone and they were now on the first race weekend of the year. There was a lot of expectation about the upcoming season and both Ferrari drivers were ready to give all they had.

-Hi, everybody.- Aurora said when she entered the Ferrari box.

-Bianchi!- everybody shouted, ever since Aurora joined Ferrari, the whole Scuderia loved her.

-Well, go back to work. I'm here to train two apprentices.- she explained before someone hugged her from behind

-Good morning, Ror.- he said with his Spanish accent

-Hi.- she said before turning around and kissing his cheek.

-You guys, I adore love but get to work.- Mattia joked, everybody at Ferrari already knew about their relationship, the thing is, it wasn't even a relationship.

-I have to go, I got to take care of these guys.- she whispered to Carlos while signaling both guys to approach them.

-Are they apprentices?- he asked and she nodded.

-Guys, I want you to meet Carlos. Carlos, they are Ferrari's new apprentices, John and Paige.-

-It's great to meet you. Work hard guys, she's the best out there.- Carlos said about his girl.

-I thought Mattia told you two to stop flirting.- Charles said laughing

-We weren't flirting, I was introducing them.- she said

-They are Ferrari's new apprentices, John and Paige. They'll be working with me.- she explained once again.

-Nice to meet you guys, hope you settle well.- Charles said before walking toward his car.

-Likewise, see you guys later.- Carlos said and before walking away he kissed Aurora's forehead.

-Is he your boyfriend?- Paige asked smiling

-Something like that, but it's not public yet so, keep this to yourselves.-

-Ok, so let's walk around the paddock while I introduce you guys to a race weekend.- she smiled and started to walk away with both guys following her.


A few hours later, practice one and two were done, and Aurora was now prepared to walk from interview to interview with both driver and both apprentices.

-You both did great today.- she smiled at both drivers.

-Could have been better.- Charles said

-You still have tomorrow.- Paige said with a smile

-And a whole season.- John added

-Wow, just a couple of hours and they are already mini Auroras.- Charles joked

-Ok, stop joking. We have work to do.- she seriously said

-Ror, can we talk for a minute?- Carlos said, speaking up for the first time

-Can we do it after the interviews?-

-No, it's important.-

-Ok, Charles, go to the first interview with Paige and John, please go to the first interview for Carlos and explain he will be there in a few minutes.- she indicated

-What's wrong?- she nervously asked

-They know about us.- he said

-What? Who?-

-The press, someone tagged me in a picture of us having dinner last night.-

-Ok, well this is up to you.-

-What do you mean?- he asked annoyed

-You can say whatever you want. You can say it was a business dinner, a friend's dinner, or a date.-

-What do you want?-

-Carlitos, you know what I think. But I'll be happy with whatever you decide.- she said with a smile before walking to Carlos's first interview, followed by him.

-John? Can you handle this? I need to go check on Paige.- she asked and the apprentice nodded.

-So, Carlos, anything to say about your relationship with Ferrari's new PR manager?- the interviewer asked
