Can we go through this?

Pov. Charles

It was a exhausted night. All three of us were awake for a few times this night. I was awake once when Lando was awake and once when Max was awake.

A few hours later the alarm goes off and I sigh and turn the alarm off. "Morning." says Max. "Good morning." I say and I turn back to them. A sigh leaves Lando's mouth and he curls himself closer to Max. Max puts his arms around him and Lando lays his head on Max's chest. "What time is it now?" asks Max and I look at my phone. "9 o'clock." I say. "Okay." he mumbles and I open my message from Cisca.

Cisca:

Hi charles,

I'm glad he's asleep and that you're staying with him. That also gives us more peace here. I'm fine, just can't wait for the holidays so I can hug Lando. But I know he's in good hands now, thank you.

U:
I understand. The holiday is soon, just a few more days. He slept okay. He woke up a few times, but he was calm.

I then respond to the last few messages before I sit up. "I'd rather lie here all day." I sign and I lie down on my stomach and half on Max's legs. "Mmhh, that sounds really nice." Max says while rubbing my cheek. I smile at him before looking at Lando. His eyes are still closed, but he rubs Max's stomach. I bring my hand to his leg and rub it.

"I can't wait for our vacation. It will be the first time that the three of us really go away." says Max and I smile. "Yeah, I'm looking forward to it." I say. "I read that it is already warm there. It is now 32 degrees." "Mmm, can't wait." I say. "A break from racing for a while." "We've had a lot of races already." I say and Max nods. "It's getting fuller the calendar." he says and I nod. "I like it like this, too much is not fun." I say and Max shakes his head.

"Are you waking up Lan?" Max says as he rubs Lando's cheek. Lando sighs and opens his eyes. "Good morning Mon Amour." I say and he smiles weakly. "How did you sleep?" asks Max. "Fine." says Lando softly. "Yes?" I ask and he nods. "Will you be okay today?" asks Max and Lando nods. "It'll be fine." he says. "I feel calmer in my body." he says afterwards and I smile. "Good." I say.

Pov. Lando

When I walk into the garage I say hello to everyone before I walk to my room and change. After I changed I walk back downstairs and we go straight to the meeting. We discuss the last few things and then we can quickly get in the car for free practice. We tested the last few things and rode a long run that looked positive.

"What do you want for lunch?" asks Jon as I sit down on the sofa in my room. "Could I have a shake? Instead of lunch?" I ask and Jon frowns. "Because?" "Because I want to." I lie. "But you usually get your shake an hour before you have to get in the car." "I know, but I want my shake now. I'll eat better tonight, okay? Please Jon?" "Okay, whatever you want. Are you feeling sick?" He asks and I shake my head. "Okay. I'm going to make your shake. But we're not going to do this every time Lando." "No no." I say and Jon makes my shake. He gives me my shake. "Thank you." I say. "Welcome. I'm going downstairs so if you're looking for me I'll be there." "Okay." I say and Jon opens the door. "Hey guys, he's inside." says Jon and I look up. "Hi, could we come in?" George asks and I sit up.

George and Alex?

"Yeah of course." "Thank you." Alex says and Jon opens the door further. Alex and George come in and I put my shake away. "Hey." I say.

Will they still be angry?

I did saw them talking to Charles yesterday.

Aren't they mad at him? Only on me...

"Hey." George says and Jon leaves the room.

"What are you doing here?" I ask as I stand up. "To say we're sorry." says George and I look at the ground and then back at George and then at Alex. "You don't have to say sorry, I didn't say anything and-" "But our response wasn't okay." says Alex. "No, but-" "You don't have to justify it for us." George says and then he hugs me. "I love you Lando. I'm sorry about Thursday." he says as I put my arms around him. "It's okay George. I understand your reaction." "And that's not okay." George let go of me and I look at him. "We lashed out at you without asking for an explanation. We didn't even want to hear it. We lashed out on you and left. Something was clearly wrong before us and we only made it worse." "But you didn't know that." I say. "But we should have asked for an explanation and not lashed out at you." says Alex and he grabs my arm. "We are sorry." he says and he gently squeezes my arm. "It's okay, I forgive you." I say. "You forgive us too quickly." says George and I frown. "What am I supposed to do? Pretend I hate you while it is my fault too? I haven't said anything these months and believe me, I really wanted to." "Max and Charles would like to talk to all of us. Are you open for that too?" George asks. "Yes. I'd like to explain it all to you both." "That's good. We actually wanted to wait to see you, since you're already not feeling well. But we couldn't wait. We had to see you today." says Alex. "You can come anytime, you know that." "Yes, but Charles told a little bit about what happened the past day and that's not nothing. It's a lot and then you have a race week too, it's a lot." says George. "It is, but it will be fine. It's all getting better."
