Nico walked in the room after brushing his teeth and saw Kevin asleep, he looked peaceful and Nico joined him with a smile on his face happy that the Dane finally got some sleep. During the night Kevin woke up once, his breathing unsteady. He woke Nico up but the German pretended to sleep, Kevin went to drink some water and slept through the rest of the night.

Zhou woke up around five thirty in the morning, way to early in his opinion. He heared the noise of a zipper opening and someone walking around the room. When he finally opened his eyes he saw Nyck packing his bags. "What are you doing" Nyck looked up. "Eh nothing Guanyu, just go to sleep, you'll see this afternoon." Zhou didn't buy it and stood up holding Nycks arm, stopping him from putting a shirt in his suitcase. "Nyck what's going on?" He asked again. Nyck mumbled something which was incoherent "What?" "They fired me, they fired me because I couldn't drive in their stupid car. Godverdomme*!" his voice was being raised with every word and the last word, a Dutch curseword Zhou thought, was shouted. They got so silent that they could hear two people walking towards their room before knocking. "It's open" Zhou softly said. "Is everyting okay? Me and Logan heared someone shouting." Oscar got silent after seeing the red eyes of Nyck. "Are you okay, man." Logan tried. "I'm a terrible driver. I'm not preforming as well as some 23-year-old and now they're trading me in for someone who actually deserves a seat." "You deserve a seat okay Nyck? Don't say those things about yourself. You have the worst car on the grid, Yuki has more expirience in the Alpha and the people that control these decisions are just dicks." Zhou said wrapping an arm around Nyck. Logan and Oscar accused themselves because this moment seemed way to private. Nyck and Zhou decided to sleep for a bit.

Around two hours later Zhou woke up again and headed down to see Seb. He knocked and the room and walked in when told that it was okay. He saw Sebastian cuddled up into Kimi. "Sebastian, have you heard about Nyck?" Sebastian gave him a confused look so Zhou took a deep breath.  "Alpha Tauri has put Daniel as a replacement, he's out of formula one." Kimi looked up hearing the news. It stayed silent for a while untill Zhou started speaking again. "Please let him stay, I know he's not officially a driver anymore but I really don't want him to go. I know very little people here and I can always talk to him." Sebastian looked at Zhou before turning to Kimi. "Zhou, I understand you don't want him to leave. but that's not our decision to make, the FIA will have to decide. I'll tell you as soon as we know something." Zhou nodded before sadly walking back to his room. The FIA wasn't known to be very sympatic.

Once arriving back he saw Nyck once again packing. Nyck saw that Zhou wanted to day something but stopped him. "Zhou it's okay, I wasn't preforming well enough. I'm sure Daniel will be a great roommate." "闭嘴!* I don't want to hear this Nyck, I don't want Daniel as a roommate or replacement, I know he's a great guy, but he's not you!" Nyck looked at him shocked before Zhou pulled him into a hug. "I don't want to leave, Guanyu." "I asked Sebastian, he'll see if you can stay okay?" He felt Nyck nodding against his shoulder.

"DANIEL IS COMING BACK!" Max shouted as he came downstairs. All eyes went to him. "He's getting an Alph-" "Max errête de parler!*" Charles said. Max quickly shut up as his eyes met those of his fellow country-man. "Sorry Nyck, zo bedoelde ik het niet.* " He apologized. "Maakt niet uit, Daniel verdient het.*" Nyck said back with a sad smile on his face. Max sat down next to Nico who was looking at Kevin, Valtteri and Lewis having a conversation in a corner.

"Could I have everyones attention?" Sebastian said as he and Kimi walked in. Not everyone was listening so Kimi decided to help out. "Everyone shut up and listen to Sebastian." This did get everyones attention and so Sebastian cleared his throat and started talking. "I just got off of the phone with someone from the FIA, I think everyone is aware of the situation of Nyck and Daniel?" There were some yesses but most people looked over to Max who sank in his seat. "Okay, so the FIA has decided that Nyck was able to stay if the sleeping arrangement would work and if it would allign with Nycks next step in his career, but we'll look into that when he has had some time to decide. My question for you is if anyone would be willing to have Daniel share their room with them." Kevin shot a quick look at Nico, knowing that he and Daniel were friends, but Nico smiled softly at him, indicating that he wouldn't say anything about Daniel sharing the room with them. Kevin did like Daniel, but it would just be too much at night if that hyperactive guy would be in the same room.

"He can sleep in our room if Charles agrees? or maybe in Fernando and Checos room?" Sergio didn't look to enthausiastic about Daniel joining their room, feeling threatend by the fact that Daniel had already cost someone their seat. "I'm okay with that." Charles spoke up. "Great! then it's setteled. I'll contact him." Sebastian replied.

"Daniel will be coming in a few days, Charles Max, You'll get the room ready?" The two nodded. "Okay, well then I think everything is done for this part, we don't have to talk about this topic anymore so we'll drop it. If you need something to talk about, talk about Lando and Oscar getting p2 and p4, great results guys!"

As Oscar got his compliments, he once again saw Lance dissapearing with a worried Esteban behind him. He wanted to ask what was up but the Canadian was always to fast to walk away from him. "He's a bit down lately. He is getting help from me, Esteban and Sergio already, you don't have to worry." Oscar looked towards Fernando who had seen his worried look. He nodded towards the Spaniard with a smile before going back to Lando for their conversation.

Godverdomme= God dammit
闭嘴= shut up
Max errête de parler!= Max stop talking!
Sorry Nyck, zo bedoelde ik het niet.= Sorry Nyck, I didn't mean it like that.
Maakt niet uit, Daniel verdient het.= It's okay, Daniel deserves it.

I wanted the this chapter to focus on Nico and Kevin a bit more, but this chapter just made more sense seeing the news we got today. I feel really bad for Nyck and I believe that he could've improved with more time but that's red bull you know. I'm sure Daniel will do a great job in the car. Also I think I will do Max/Charles/Daniel now because of Daniel also joining the story, any other ideas are welcome as well!
