I am free! Finals are over so now I will be writing a lot hopefully.
So this will have a little bit of fluff and angst sorry about this :) I will be wanting to do some more angst in the future :D
No trigger warnings for this one enjoy!!!
You were second seat driver at redbull, you were also the first female driver in Formula 1. You and Max had been friends for a long time and you two had a very tight bond. You, Max, Daniel, Charles, and Carlos were all very close. The group of you were on the plane on the way to Canada from Monaco where you all lived.
Kelly had broken up with Max about a month ago, you had been there for him through it all. It hurt nonetheless because you were his friend. Nothing more. You would never be anything more. It plagued you every day, the thoughts that you would never be good enough for anyone. Especially not Max. But clearly Max had been feeling better though because instead of being down in the dumps all the time he had started making jokes about the break up.
You were mostly spaced out as the group was having a conversation. The only thing you picked up was Carlos saying something about how Max can't loose. Then Max responding with "actually, I can. Thank you very much. I lost my girlfriend not too long ago." You were fed up at that point. You were tired of the jokes. He didn't know what he had all he could focus on was what he didn't have. "Max I don't get it." You lashed out not putting up with any of his shit anymore. His smile fell and a look of confusion replaced it. "Goddamnit Max you're such a fucking idiot. You win so much you don't even know what you've won." Tears had began streaming down your face at this point. You stood up to go to the bathroom and Max stood up to stop you. "Don't Max, you wouldn't understand. Just let me be." You pushed past him and walked to the back of the jet locking the bathroom door behind you.
You heard quiet footsteps as you looked in the mirror trying to clean up your running mascara. "Don't even knock I don't want to talk to you Max." You said bluntly not interested in getting your heart broken officially. "Uhm, actually I'm not Max. I'm here to talk to you" You heard a voice respond. You instantly recognized it as Daniel. "Hey Dan sorry about that." You said softly as you opened the door. You let Daniel in he sat on the floor as you did the same across from him. Your back leaning against the sink.
You two sat in comfortable silence for a few minutes before Daniel finally spoke up and said "He's not going to ruin your friendship because you like him y'know." As he finished his sentence your head picked up and a small smile crept onto your lips. "I know that but like he won't be weird about it? You're sure?" Daniel just nodded. "Do you mind asking him to come back here for me?" I said hoping Daniel would agree. "Of course. Just don't have another breakdown back here please. You know it scares me when you cry." I just laughed and thanked him as he went to go get Max
You heard Daniel retreat back to the group. Then footsteps approaching Max knocked softly as he opened the door. "Hey schat,(darling) I'm sorry about the jokes." He said quietly while he slid down into the sitting position with his back against the wall. "I just don't understand Max. I've made it so obvious that I've been in love with you for so long and you just can't see it you can't even begin to fathom what it feels like and I can't believe you are so stupid and oblivious to how long I've liked you and I can't even, Max what are y-" Your angry rant was cut short by Max kissing you.
His soft lips against yours felt like heaven on earth. His hand gently caressed your face and wiped away your tears that had fallen again earlier. Your lips moved gently against his. When he finally pulled away for air you looked at him a huge smile spreading onto your face. A smile reaching his lips as well you touched your foreheads together. "I love you so much bloem" (flower). "I love you too Max. I'm sorry for yelling at you earlier." You spoke softly "I don't even care. I do care about us though. I'm going to fix this and we are going to grow together." Max said bringing you into a kiss again.
The two of you spent the rest of the plane ride with the group. Max's arm around you and gentle kisses pressed to the side of your face or forehead occasionally.
