Stolen Heart

Cousin (Part 7)

You're balling your eyes out as you make your way to Max's drivers room because he allows you to chill in there.

You silently cry in peace until you hear the glass door open, it was Max.

"Y/N? Why are you crying? Stop crying!" He says sitting down next to you and wiping the tears from your cheeks.

"Go away and celebrate with your team.." You say sniffling.

"No, what's wrong? I'm not leaving this room without information on why you're crying." Max says, putting an arm around me to comfort me.

"I messed up." I say, sniffling. Max just looks at me, understanding the gist of what I am saying but trying to get more information off me.

"Pierre kissed me, Charles saw and now it's over." I say as I bury my head into his shoulder.

"No, no.. You would never kiss Pierre... would you?" Max says, backing me up. "No! That's what Charles wont understand. I have no feelings towards Pierre, he's my bestfriend and he has been for years now." I say as I make eye contact with Max.

Max shakes his head and sighs. "This is ridiculous, I understand Charles is mad but no need to break up about it. He knows you, he knows you'd never do anything like that! Is he not hearing you out?" He says, making eye contact again.

"No.. not really?" I say crying still. I look up at Max with tears in my red, puffy, eyes.

Max sighs and pulls me in for a hug. "Awh Y/N, it's going to be okay.." He says as I feel his hand rub my back as we hug. My eyes are sealed shut as I continue to cry so much more.

"What should I do, Maxie?" I say, sobbing on his shoulder.

"I don't know, but whatever happens just remember I'm always here for you, okay?" He says, pulling away from the hug and placing his hands on my cheeks. He wipes a tear off my cheeks with his thumbs.

I smile and nod before pulling myself together and slowly stop crying.

"Want to celebrate with us? We're all going out tonight. Me and the RedBull team." Max says with a cheeky smile, he knows I love partying and the cheeky smile is because he knows it will cheer me up.

"I'll think about it." I say softly.

"No, you wont. You're coming, you need something to take your mind off Charles." He says, ruffling my hair.

Max and I have been really close since we were younger. He knows me inside and out, I can't argue with him. "Fine. I'll come, but not for too long." I say sighing but smiling.

Max lets out a smile and stands up. "Kelly's here with Penelope, she's in the RedBull hospitality, why don't you go and grab some food with her whilst I get showered and changed." He says.

I smile and nod, Penelope is one of my favourite people and I haven't seen her in ages. I quickly rush away to the RedBull hospitality where I'm greeting with two big smiles off two familiar faces.

"Auntie Y/N!" I hear Penelope say as she runs up and jumps into my arms. I hug her whilst holding her and smile at her. "P!! How have you been?" I say, running my fingers through her hair as I carry her back to the table she had just ran from.

"I'm good, me and mummy and Maxie missed you." She says, softly smiling.

"Really? Well I missed you, mummy and Maxie ten times more!" I say as I place her back down in a chair and sit next to her.

I look up at Kelly and smile. "Hey, how have you been?" I say, initiating the start of the conversation with Kelly.

A few minutes go by and I'm ordering some food for myself. Once I had ordered, I sit back down and continue talking with Kelly and Penelope.

I hadn't smiled and laughed this much in months, I love family and spending time with them, even if Kelly and P weren't technically family yet they sure did feel like it.

My food arrived the same time as Kelly and P's did which broke the conversation until after we had finished eating.

Once the day was over at the track and we had all gone back to our houses or where we were staying, I sat down on my hotel bed and started thinking.

I thought of Charles, who I hadn't spoken to most of the day. I missed him, too much. But then my mind wandered to Pierre, why did he do that? He knew it would ruin everything for me.

I sigh as I hear my phone buzz, I get it out of my bag and turn it on to see the notification.

It was a message off Max, saying he'd pick me up at 7pm.

I smile, he's trying to take my mind off Charles and bring out a smile. I don't appreciate Max as much as I should.

After a couple of hours, I start to get ready.

I put on a tight dark blue dress that shows my curves and I do my makeup. I do my hair half up half down with light curls at the end of it.

Once I'm done, I spray my really nice perfume and smile in the mirror. I looked gorgeous and I knew it.

I waited for Max to show up to take me to the party, which wasn't a long wait.
