I woke up with a terrible headache. I had way too much to drink yesterday.
Max walked out of the bathroom with just a towel around his body. He looked pretty handsome, way different from Lando but still handsome.
He threw me some pills as he laughed. "For your headache. I need you to be at the top of your game" I didn't remember much from last night. I just remembered my fight with Lando, but how did I end up in Max's room?
"Did we have sex?" I sat up and looked at him. He was changing into his teamkit.
"Yeah we definitely had amazing sex last night" he chuckled. He was being sarcastic right?
He threw a Red Bull shirt on the bed and grabbed his stuff. "Let's go Skye. We're already a little late" he said as he tapped his fingers against the door.
I quickly put the shirt on and fixed my hair. "Do I even look a bit decent?" I looked at Max as I was getting out of bed.
"You look beautiful. Let's go" he said again. I chuckled a little, he was starting to get annoyed and I loved annoying him.
"But I have such a headache Max" I put my hand on my head laughing. He wasn't amused by that at all.
He walked to me and grabbed my hand, pulling me to the door.
We walked in the paddock together. Christian was walking in front of us but he didn't even realize he was wearing his shirt inside out.
I nudged Max and pointed at Christian. We both started laughing which made Christian turn around and look at us confused. "I guess your light wasn't working this morning?" Max laughed as we walked passed him.
Christian looked at us even more confused. I guess someone will tell him soon enough, but it wouldn't be us.

I sat down on the pitwall next to GP. I haven't seen Lando today but probably because I stayed in the Red Bull hospitality for the entire day.
"Thanks for telling me I was wearing my shirt inside out" Christian said as he sat down next to me on the pitwall.
I chuckled a little and so did GP. "To be fair, we gave you a hint" I laughed as I put my headphones on.
I was ready to make Max win another race but it was difficult because Lando was catching him. I looked at the statistics, trying to find a way to leave Lando behind. "What's the plan?" GP looked at me.
They both pitted already, so I knew Lando wasn't gonna pit anymore but Max was struggling on his tires and we still had some fresh soft tires.
"We're gonna box Max for softs" I said over the radio, so the mechanics could hear it as well.
It was a gamble, a big one but Lando was certainly gonna overtake him if we didn't do anything. "Okay Max box box" GP said over the radio. "You sure?" Max replied. I nodded at GP, they were obviously both doubting my decision.
"We're sure" GP said and not long after Max was driving into the pits.
I looked behind me, the mechanics did a great job, they did such a fast pitstop, just what we needed.
"Okay Max, let's get him" GP motivated him.
I could feel my heart beating so fast. I didn't want Lando to win this, it felt like it was personal right now.
I put my head on my hands as I was looking at the screen. Max was getting so close to Lando right now.
Finally in the last lap, Max overtook Lando and won the race.
I clapped my hands and turned to GP who immediately hugged me. "You actually did it" he said laughing.
I couldn't believe it either. It was such a big gamble but it payed off in the end.
I was looking up at the podium ceremony. I was proud of Max. I smiled a little as I looked at him but then I looked at Lando, who was standing in P2. He was just shaking his head as he was looking at me.
