"Ah!" I screamed as I jumpscare was shown on the screen, Max just laughed. I slowly started to get closer to Max, shuffling slightly everytime he looked away. He reached his hand over and out it behind my neck, pulling me into him.
"If you wanted to get close to me, you could've just said." Max said, I couldn't see his face, but I could tell that there was a smirk plastered on there.
"Oh shut up!" I said giggling. I tried to pay attention to the movie but it was so scary.
I quickly buried my face in Max's side when I thought there would be a jumpscare, each time Max laughed. My legs touched his as his arm rested on my shoulder, not letting me shuffle away, but I never tried to shuffle away, it was comfortable like this.
When the movie finished it was late, and I needed to be up for training tomorrow so I asked Max to drive me home, which he obviously did.

FRIDAY, PRACTICE DAY:
I arrived in the paddock just on time, taking some pictures, signing some t-shirts and hats on the way in. I loved the fans in Formula One, except the sexist ones, they were so warm-hearted and they always made my day. They were also loyal.
"Well goodmorning!" Christian said as I walked into the garage, giving me a fist bump. Me and Christian had such a good relationship, he was like a second dad to me, since I never really knew mine, he always cared for me, defended me, and tried his best to make me happy.
"Goodmorning!" I said, my brown hair fell swiftly behind my shoulders as I walked.
"How are you?" He asked, "Feeling confident?"
"Actually yes! I'm good and I'm feeling good! Hoping I can set some good laps and maybe a new record! How are you?" I said, I always tried to maintain the best mindset, no matter what anyone told me.
"That's good! I'm good, abit tired but I'll manage." He said, laughing. I saw Drive to Survive filming us, we weren't talking about anything important? Christian had always told me to ignore them if I was speaking to someone, so I just continued the conversation as if they weren't there.
TIME SKIP:
"Radio check." I heard my engineer say.
"Loud and cleAr!" I always loved to mimic Max's voice crack, the fans loved it.
"Okay, Bella, set some good lap times!" My engineer encouraged through the headphones.
"Will do!" I said back. Joining the line in the pits.
Practice 1 went great. I had managed to set some really good lap times, and came out first. I just needed to do the same for practice 2 and 3.
I had to do some interviews after Practice 1, I didn't have a problem with it, but I just wanted to sit down.
"So, Isabella, how are you feeling after getting 1st in Practice 1?" They asked, "Bit of a dumb question, good obviously." I thought, but I had to maintain professional.
"Good! Really good! Obviously it was quite difficult with Max and his pace, but I'm glad I came out 1st!" I said smiling.
"That's brilliant! Do you think you can keep this up for the rest of the weekend?" They asked, smiling at me slightly.
