The Racing Driver

Chapter 5

Mila's POV

I woke up and looked in front of me. I was in Daniel's bed and he was asleep. He was lay in just some PJ bottoms with his top half naked and I was in his t-shirt.

His arm was wrapped around me and I had an arm over his stomach. I didn't want to move and disturb him. I decided  to lie there for a while. I saw his eyes beginning to flutter open and he looked at me. He smiled as soon as he saw me.

"Hey," he said.

"Hey you. I'm sorry about coming back here last night. I couldn't be on my own," I said.

"No sweat. I'm here anytime Mila," he said.

Daniel kissed my forehead softly.

"I'm sorry if this gives you mixed messages," I said gesturing the fact we were in bed together and he was half naked.

"I understand. First and foremost I'm glad we have this friendship and that you can feel comfortable enough to be you around me," he said.

I heard Daniel's door open and saw Michael coming in. He saw us both and smiled.

"Sorry... I didn't know you'd have company Daniel," Michael said.

I suddenly felt embarrassed. I pulled the covers up my body a little knowing that Daniel's shirt had risen to bunch at my waist.

"Someone didn't want to be alone last night and needed a hug. We both fell asleep," Daniel said.

"Mila, are you catching a flight with the rest of the team back home? I think they've all made there way down to go to the airport," he said.

"What time is it?" I asked.

"10am,"

"Fuck," I said.

"What's wrong?" Daniel asked.

"I was meant to be ready and downstairs to leave at 10. There is no way I am going to make that flight home," I said.

"Don't stress. I'm sure you can get in with us," Daniel said reaching for his phone and making a call. He put the phone to his ear.

"Hey Zak. I need a favour. Have we extra room for one passenger on the flight home?"

I couldn't hear Zak's reply.

"Ahh great thanks Zak. It's Mila. After yesterday I think she just crashed out last night,"

Again Zak said something.

"Uh yeah. We can talk about that later. I'll see you soon," he said before putting the phone down.

"You're coming with us," Daniel said.

"What really? Thank you," I said,

"Anything remember," he said.

"You're flying privately right?" I asked him.

"Yeah a few of us," he said.

"Thats insane. Who's flying with you?"

"Me, Michael, Zak, Andreas, Lando and Jon,"

"Oh my god. They're going to ask questions aren't they,"

"Don't stress Mila,"

Michael looked over at us "I'll go get us all some breakfast and let you both get ready," he said.

Michael left and I moved out of Daniel's arms.

"Thank you for yesterday. It was... well had a bad day of it didn't I," I said.
