Hannah

"You slept okay?" Max asked me when I walked into the kitchen. His hair was wet from the shower and his face still partly red from the morning workout. "Yeah, what are we doing today?" It was Friday, before the race week in Singapore, which meant that we had to fly there today.

"We will take the plane with Daniel at two, so we have to leave in like 3 hours" he took a sip of his coffee and turned his attention to the computer in front of him. I made a quick breakfast so I could have time to pack all my things for the week.

I had packed nearly all of my stuff when my alarm rang. I reached for my computer, which I would need since it was where all my schoolwork was gathered. I really liked my first week of studying online so hopefully it will be as nice the rest of the year. "You ready Hannah?" Max shouted from the hall. I took my things and walked out from my room.

Max stood ready at the door with two suitcases and his backpack while talking to someone on his phone. "Ready" I nodded.

The trip to the airport took a half hour since it's in Nice, France. Max was talking on the phone the whole time so I just watched the new episode of Love Island. When Max saw what I was watching he looked at me disgusted. From that moment it was my mission to make him like the show. "Why do you watch that" Max said when he finally got of the phone. "Because it's fun and I really like this one couple, look, they are really cute" I show him my screen. "Mhm" he shook his head.

Our taxi stoped in front of the airport and security met us at the door. "Mr Ricciardo is already in the waiting room for your flight" the bulky security man said while walking with us. Daniel sat by himself in the waiting room eating something. When he saw us he stood up.

"You got here early" Max said and hugged him. "Yeah, wanted to avoid the crowds" he let go and looked at me. "Hi" I said while his eyes scanned my features. "Hey. I'm Daniel" he smiled. "Yeah, so, this is my sister Daniel. Little sister" Max said with a warning tone. I smacked his arm "I'm Hannah, nice to meet you". Daniel smiled. "You got the good genes Hannah" he looked at me but when his eyes found Max, his smirk faded and it looked like he was ready to run, fast.

A man in his thirties came in and told us the flight was ready. Not soon later Max and Daniel was catching up with each other and joking again. Daniel seemed really nice. This is the first time I've met one of Max's newer friends.

The flight involved lots of sleeping but mostly Daniel wondering why he hadn't heard of me before and wanting to know how Max was when he was little. When only Max were asleep Daniel asked about me and my life. It felt nice to finally have someone else to talk to and especially someone who actually knew who I was.

When we were landing in Singapore it was very cloudy and pouring rain. "Does it always rain this much?" I asked while gathering my things I had spread out in the large seat facing towards me. "Yeah, most times" Daniel answered and reached for his cap in the same seat. "How are you not scared while driving, I don't get it. I won't even drive a normal car in these conditions." I stood up searching for an umbrella. "Well sometimes I am, but your crazy brother here loves it" He said and pointed to Max who stood at the exit. "We can share" he added and took out his umbrella. Max got out of our flight first. He said that Christian had called so it was important. I didn't mind being alone with Daniel, we got along really well.

The walk from the plane to the airport was about 1 minutes but both me and Daniel got soaked in water.

"Put your sunglasses on now" Max said to me and grabbed my hand. I followed him closely and the second we walked out of the doors to the airport flashes flickered. He dragged me through the crowd and in to a black car with tinted windows. People with cameras were shouting 'Max' and 'Daniel'.

While we waited a few minutes for Daniel, I watched how people were trying to peek into the car. It was scary. Daniel took the front passenger seat and said hi to the chauffeur. The chauffeur started driving and soon we stopped in front of a big hotel. Fortunately there was not any people there, except for the staff.

Daniel took my large bag with him and walked to the reception of the hotel. "Hey, are you okay" Max saw my little bit of freaked face. "Yeah, it was just a bit scary. The way they pushed and looked into the car" I got kind of claustrophobic in that situation. "Yeah they do that, as long as you keep close to me it's gonna be fine" Max and I walked with out bags to the reception where Daniel had waited for us.

"I'm gonna go to my room. Max, text me about dinner?" Daniel gave me my bag. "Yeah, see you" Max said and gave Daniel that quick hand thingy boys do. "Bye Hannah" he smiled. "Bye" I said and turned my attention to Max. "Here, I got us rooms besides each other" He gave me the key to my room. "Thanks".

"I have to meet up with Christian so we will see each other before dinner, okay?" Max put his card to the door handle and waited for it to open. "Yeah, okay" I was really jet lagged, so it was nice to get some time for myself.

My room was larger than I expected. In the hallway a mirror and a shoe rack were placed. To the right, there was a large bathroom. It looked really new and fresh which was nice. The walls were covered in a darker grey tile and the bathroom mirror was large with great lighting. Basically the perfect make up mirror. The room was also really nice. A window wall covered parts of the room and the bed was placed in the middle of the room at the right wall. At the wall in front of the bed a large TV was displayed.

After I was finished with putting my stuff where I wanted them to be, I took a long shower. I hated the plane smell and my hair got really greasy and tangled so I really needed that shower.
