Zoë

Kelly and Max invited me to come to the Monaco GP. I'm staying at their place as well. He and I texted sometimes but I mostly spoke to Kelly. I wouldn't say him and I are good friends again, but we're okay with oneanother. I sometimes watched the races, I really like to watch them but something always holds me back. My heart jumps sometimes when I see Lando on the screen. We texted a few times, it got a bit flirty but nothing serious. Maybe if we kiss it will come back. I'm a bit nervous to see him this weekend.

I arrive at Nice airport and get a taxi to Max's home. Kelly comes running out the door with little P. They fly around my neck together. "You're here finally!" I laugh. "So good to see you again!" "You wouldn't even believe it but Max even said he was excited for you to be here this weekend." Is he really? I notice I start to blush a little. Kelly takes me upstairs. Their penthouse is huge, they have a pool on the terrace, two stories, multiple living rooms and kitchens. "Wow." I'm apparently looking impressed because Max turns up grinning at me. "You're catching flies Zo." He hugs me. "I'm sorry I mean, this is huge. And so pretty. You must have an amazing architect since I know if it were you there was only a couch somewhere in a corner and a tv." He pushes me playfully. "Well not wrong tho." He laughs. Kelly comes with some drinks. "To an amazing raceweekend, may Max get another win in and may we get really drunk on Sunday." I cheers to that. "Oh before I forget, Sunday we will go to a party in Monte-Carlo, Lando boy is DJing." She smirks at me. "Are you turning a little red now dearest Zozo?" she mocks me. I turn around. "What, no!" She chuckles because she knows better and is trying to get a reaction out of me. "Did you keep in touch with eachother?" Max asks and I turn back. "We messaged sometimes, nothing too crazy or something." Penelope comes running and takes my hand. "Zo, come to my playroom I want to show you everything!" Saved by the bell.

Max

Zoë is coming all weekend. She's staying in our house. Somehow it makes me nervous. I want her to have an amazing time during the Monaco GP. Kelly has made a lot of plans to show her Monaco and let me concentrate on the raceweekend. Sunday we go to a party, this time I won't lose her out of my sight. Kelly's phone goes, she's almost here. My heart skips a beat and I decide to quickly freshen up, I need more cologne. When I get back I see her standing in my living room, her mouth a little open in awe. Her cheeks are a little red from the heat outside. I walk up to her and greet her. She jokes about my interior. Penelope comes running up to her and takes her with her. "This weekend is going to be amazing." Kelly says as she puts her arms around my neck and kisses my cheek. I smile at her but can't take my eyes of Zoë walking away.

She comes back. "I put your suitcase in the spare bedroom, come I'll show you." She politely smiles at me. "And this is it, you have your own on suite with it as well. I hope you like it for the weekend." She grins at me. "What?" "Max stop being like this, you're house is beautiful and I'm already feeling really lucky that you let me stay here." I turn around and I feel my cheeks turning red. "Yeah whatever, Kelly wants to take you out for lunch so she asked me to tell you to get ready." She nods and smiles at me.

Kelly is still getting ready when Zo get's downstairs. "Max is this too much? Kel told me to get some fancier clothes since this race is based on money, but I don't know if this is lunch appropriate." I look up and my jaw hits the floor. She looks absolutely breathtaking. I try to find te words. Kelly shows up behind her. "Girl you look hot! You'll be turning heads!" She smiles shyly. "Have fun ladies, don't drink too much." I tell as they leave. I fall back in the couch and sigh. Penelope comes to me and climbs in my lap. "Well, it's just you and me this afternoon, what you want to do?" Her little eyes light up "swimming!" I smile "okay let's get you changed than little monster." I throw her over my shoulder and she squeels with laughter.

A while later my phone rings when I'm in the pool. "P can you check who it is?" "It's mommy!" "Okay, pick it up and put her on speaker please!" I swim to the edge of the pool and P comes walking towards me. "Hi mommy!" "Hey baby, can you give me Max?" "Hello, what's up?" "Hello love, the sun and bottle of rosé hit us a little too hard. Could you maybe pick us up?" I laugh and shake my head "yeah, I'll get ouf of the pool and be there shortly." I put P in the backseat and go get them. They are grinning and laughing when they walk up. Kelly sits down and kisses me. Zoë sits in the back and starts talking with P. I have perfect good view on her face via the rear mirror. "So you girls had fun?" "Oh so much fun!" She grins and I see Zoë her expression change completely, giving her a look. "You'll never believe who came for a little chat with us, or well, with Zoë." "Oh my god, Kel, shut up!" Zoë turns bright red and I already have my suspicions.
