The Game

I stood on the balcony and watched the sunset. It was gorgeous. The scenery and the colors here were something else. Italy was a lot like Monaco but in my opinion it was better.

I had been out on the balcony for some time and Tate was laying in bed playing with some songs. She was so close to finishing her album. Her drop party is going to be next weekend after the Monaco Grand Prix. That way we could celebrate two wins in one.

I am confident that I will get pole.

5 Grand Prixs into the season and I have gotten a podium every single time. I'm number one for rookie of the season so far, Charles in a close second.

He and I haven't spoken since leaving Miami. You would think we would run into each other because of how small Monaco is but no. He never reached out so I didn't bother to either.

My phone pinged, it was from Max.

Maxie
There's a party tonight. Wanna go?

Sure. But i'm not drinking

"Tate get ready! We're going out tonight!" I shouted while trying to find an outfit for tonight.

Almost two hours later, Tate and I left with Max. I was wearing a small black top paired with a black mini skirt. Tate was wearing a short black dress. Max was wearing a plain white shirt and black pants.

When we arrived to the club there was a line that wrapped around the block. Thank god we're famous.

We joined some other drivers at a table. Around the couch was Alex, Carlos, Lando, Danny, Lewis, Pierre, and Kika. When I saw Kika I jumped into her lap and started to kiss her cheek.

"Kika! Ugh I missed you!" She giggled and held me tightly. "Can you not steal my girlfriend?" Pierre chirped and I stuck my tongue back at him. Kika and I hit it off the first time I met her during preseason and I hadn't seen much of her since.

I moved off her lap and found myself between Max and Tate, Kika sat on the other side of Tate. I was talking to Max mostly. He had his arm around my shoulders and I was leaning into him while laughing. It felt so natural after not spending so much time with him. He was my other best friend so being in this position felt fine.

I glanced away for a second and my eyes found his. He was wearing a white button up with black pants and he had a girl on his arm. She's beautiful. She looked a model and had a natural beauty. She has dark brown hair that fell right below her shoulders and had on a brown mini dress. I didn't even feel jealous that he had another girl on his arm, just insecure.

They sat down across from Max and I. Her beauty becoming more apparent. He had his arm around her and he was smiling. Until he looked at me. His face dropped to shame.

Why was he shamed? He had the most gorgeous girl at his side.

I excused myself to get a drink. I told myself I wasn't going to because we have a race tomorrow morning, but after that, I needed a shot... or four.

I downed all 4 and I raised my hand asking for another but it was quickly pulled down. I turned to see who's arm was stopping me from drowning in my insecurities. I rolled my eyes at the sight of Charles.

"What are you doing mi Estrellita?" He asked like he cared. I snatched my arm away and downed another shot.

"Don't call me that and leave me alone, please." I whispered the please almost breaking a little. I was staring at the wall behind the bar. His hand found my face and lifted it to meet his eyes. He was trying to find the girl I am behind my hazel eyes but alcohol makes that girl disappear.
