I can't .

~12~

POV y/n:

Angry I walk away from the pittwall,all the cars are in after second practice. After the interviews with my father and the questions about George my father is just my father again, especially after he realized that Carlos was watching me the whole time. I really felt embarrassed when he suddenly walked up to him to ask him what he found so interesting about me. After that he told me every wrong move I made with Lewis' 2nd practice, there was more to take out of it than there was in it but my head was working overtime. As I make my way down to the exit of the circut I see Charles and Lando. "Hey y/n." I hear Lando calling my name, I want to walk past them and go back to my hotelroom, so I raise my hand and wave at them. "Are you okay?" Charles then asks, I stop walking and try to calmdown to have a talk with them. "Hey y/n, are you in a hurry?" "Not really in a hurry but I've had it for today." "Why George had a good workout right?" Lando asks. "George did only Lewis didn't and I get blamed for that, you know how Toto is." I talk to them for a while about how my relationship with Toto is. "But he's your father right?" "Yes he is too but then he doesn't have to treat me like that, look I don't expect any special treatment but ever since he saw Carlos at our pit boxes before the winter break he has started paying more and more attention to me." "You would think that should be over now that you are in a relationship with George." "You would think so yes." I glance at Charles for a moment, hoping he still spoke to Carlos after 1st practice. "Carlos did look a little elated today after the interviews." "I understand if my father walked up to him afterwards to ask what Carlos found so interesting about me. I felt quite embarrassed." As I am about to say goodbye George comes running up.

POV Toto:

I see y/n walking away from the pitwall, she is angry but she must also understand that she can't deliver this work, she has been out of her mind since this afternoon when she was late to the interviews, even the questions asked of her about George she answered as if she didn't care, when I let my gaze wander around the room for a moment I saw Carlos looking at her, I have seen this happen a few times and that is why after all the interviews I approached him to ask that what he needs from her.

"Toto have you seen y/n?" It is George who comes to ask about her first. "She ran away angrily, I wouldn't know where to. If I were you I'd just keep an eye on her." I try to warn George, I get the idea that Carlos still wants something from her even though he had said he didn't and that he was glad she is happy with George. He nods and then walks away, he is not even changed when I see him leaving the grid.

I want to turn my attention to Lewis when I can no longer see George. "Lewis what went wrong?" I ask him when I run into him in the hallways. "I wouldn't know, y/n don't seem to be there very much this afternoon, the start didn't go well I couldn't find any grip and I didn't really feel like she was listening to me." I listen intently to what Lewis has to say, I haven't heard him talk about her like this much before especially since they pretty much always did everything together. I can clearly see from him that something more is bothering him than just his bad 2nd practice, I think I can already guess what he's dealing with.

POV George:  

I find y/n with Charles and Lando and I run towards her, it looks like she was just about to leave so thankfully I'm still in time. "Hey baby, what happend with your dad?" "" Can we just not talk about that right now. Why aren't you changed yet?" She responds somewhat rudely but I don't particularly mind. "Because I went looking for you, will you wait for me for a while then I'll go change quickly and we can go somewhere to eat together in a little while." "Yeah sure, I'll wait here." I quickly give her a slightly uncomfortable hug and quickly run back to my dressing room.

Just as I finish and want to leave my dressing room Lewis comes walking in. "George I disagree!" "With what?" "You and y/n." "Come Lewis it's only for a few weeks, after all I've seen how she still looks at Carlos and he looks at her." "How long are a few weeks? Because I don't really feel much like playing along with this game." "I think another month or 2 but that's totally up to her. But can we talk about it another time because she's waiting for me." Without waiting for Lewis' answer I step past him and walk out at an increased pace. "That took a long time." y/n suddenly laughs again, I try to understand her but sometimes I really can't. "Sorry Lewis came over to complain about how he didn't like our fake relationship and that he doesn't want to play along for too long." "Typical Lewis, I will talk to him tomorrow though, I think this is more my fault than yours, I think he is mostly angry about me ruining his 2nd training." She laughs and then shrugs her shoulders. I put my arm around her shoulders and together we walk towards my car.
