Broken arrows

20.

I walked out of the Red Bull hospitality after a tiring day. I could definitely need some good pizza.

Lando was standing outside his hospitality. He was leaning against the wall, his arms were crossed in front of his chest and he titled his head a little as he looked at me.
A smirk on his face.

That handsome fucker.

"On your way to fuck another Max I see" his voice ripped through my body.
I turned around and looked at him. He had a smirk on his face, as if he was pleased with what he just said.

That annoying fucker.

"Excuse me?" I said as I raised an eyebrow, I couldn't believe what he just said.

"Do you want to be excused for fucking Verstappen or because you're on your way to fuck my best friend?"

His gaze stayed on mine. I didn't know what to say, so I just took a step closer to him.

"No, I want to be excused for loving you, I want to be excused for thinking you might still love me" I spat out.

His face softened a little, his eyes were locked on mine.

"I want to be excused for falling so damn hard for you, for wanting to spend my life with you" my voice cracked a few times as I was holding back my tears.

"But hey, I'm just a fool for thinking you feel the same because obviously you don't"

I turned around and wanted to get out of here as quickly as possible.
But he didn't let me, he grabbed me by my arm, softly, trying not to hurt me.

"Wait Aimée, I-I.." he stuttered. "You what?" I said as I turned around.

He sighed as he looked down. He didn't say another word, he couldn't. He probably didn't want to lie he couldn't tell me he wanted the same because he didn't.

"That's what I thought. So don't ever try to judge me for the things I do, who I fuck or who I like" even though he may have a reason to judge me, I've been a mess lately but he was the reason.

He broke the Aimée who was sweet and innocent. I wasn't that Aimée anymore.

"Change your mind" he whispered as his fingers brushed against my arm.

I shook my head confused. "What does that mean?"

"Change" he said as his fingers brushed my index finger. "Your" his fingers moved to my middle finger. "Mind" he said as tapped my ring finger a few times.

I was still confused but he didn't say or do anything else. He just looked in my eyes for a few seconds before disappearing in his hospitality.

I frowned as I looked at my hand. Change my mind? About what? Was this his attempt to make me not hang out with Max?

Too bad for him but I definitely was gonna spend my evening with him.

—————————

My stomach was hurting, I felt nauseous, I was that hungry. Max took his time bringing those damn pizzas.

I was laying in bed, zapping through the different tv channels.
"Come on Max" I mumbled to myself right before someone knocked on my door.

"Damn, that was weird" I talked to myself again as I jumped out of the bed.
I ran to the door and opened it with a smile on my face.

"Took you long eno-" I started but stopped as soon as I saw who was standing in front of me.

Or who I thought was standing in front of me because that wasn't possible.
It wasn't possible right?

"What are you doing here? I thought you were..." I stuttered.

He chuckled a little. "Dead?"
