"I was raised by my dad's and brother's brain, can't believe you think i would care."
"I can see you were, your attitude is on fire, but so are you."
"Shut up."
"No, you really are on fire, your hair is burning."
Andrea Sainz takes a Mclaren positio...
It all felt...numb...The chaotic energy that used to sleep beside me was gone. 5 days had gone by and we hadn't shared a word since. I wanted to, but I just couldn't, I was angry at her, more like a kind of frustration. She would avoid me, even on the plane to Abu Dhabi and after that, we had no time to speak about it since the weekend started. I probably said the 3 words too soon and she got uncomfortable but deep inside me, I knew I wanted to hear them also coming from her lips.
I tried not to focus on that, after many races, here came on last push to set it all up. I could do it I knew I could.
"Hey Oscar, time for the track walk." Tom said while patting my back to which I nodded and just followed.
After this we had the drivers parade, which I was hoping would help me talk to Di, just until I saw her chatting with Carlos and Daniel I knew that I would have to find another time. I settled myself on the railing and waved to some fans.
"Couple fight?" Lando asked while settling himself beside me.
"Yeah...We had never argued this much." I sighed.
"Well, have you two talked about it?"
"Can't find the time to do it, mate, all of this last race events and dynamics are really time occupiers." I said frustatedly.
"You'll find the right time, Piastri, just...don't give up on each other." He said sadly. I knew he had experience a bad relationship with a girl he truly loved. I wouldn't give up on Andrea, but what if she gave up on me?
The next day came and it was still weird to wake up with out her beside me. I missed her perfume that smelled so sweet, her newly short hair that was a mess, her soft snores which I never said anything about, god, I even missed how much she moved through the night setting us in the weirdest sleeping positions. I missed her a lot, but I just needed to finish this race and then I would be able to speak to her.
Andrea's POV:
I can't say that I wasn't dying on the inside, I missed Ozzy so much. I know I caused it, but now that I wanted to speak to him, the universe just didn't want us to do so. Everytime I was walking to his room, someone or something came in the way, either Carlos wanting to yap about his team, or Lotte with news of her and Paul. Ugh! Just this last race and I can sit to speak with him calmly.
FP1 had gone well and FP2 was absolute shit, sorry to say that the car was damaged in the first practice and everything that could wrong...well...did. For starters, the car wasn't well balanced, then I hit a curve which harmed the car, then the breaks were iced. I was so frustrated on how things were going.
After those two practices I left as soon as I could and went to take a long bath and have some delicious pizza. After that I just went to sleep, hoping for a better saturday.
I woke up to the text that the car wouldn't be ready for FP3, which immediately ruined my mood. I stood up as rough as it was and got ready for the track. As I arrived many interviewers came up to me by the recent announcement that Oscar and I did, but I just walked past them and settled in the garage, right now I didn't care if it sparked any more rumors, I just wanted to get to my car and drive.
Qualy was starting and the car was now fixed. I hoped everything could go well. I started setting some pretty good lap times and got myself into Q3. As I was doing my last lap to get myself off the 9th position I turned on curve 8 and Yuki and Checo had crashed. I did my best to stop the car since it all happened so quick, but I still got some damage on the front wing, leaving me not only in 9th but 10th after Lance pulled off a great lap, well that was a shit weekend.
I was so awfully tired and frustrated, that when the lecture Zack gave me was over, I left the track with tears in my eyes hoping nobody saw me. I was so done with everything, Oscar, the fucking car, Zack, god! It was all so heavy into me that I just didn't know what to do.
Oscar's POV:
I didn't do great in the qualy and got a P6, it wasn't my best, but it wasn't a bad spot. I got down of the car and went to speak with my engineers. As the small meeting for tomorrow finished, I decided to leave to the hotel. I ordered room service and started to watch a movie in bed. Suddenly it just hit me, I used to do this with Di, I got some teardrops in my eyes but I refused to let any slip until I heard a knock on the door, and I felt the need of picking myself up.
I walked up and opened it, it was her.
"Di..." I said surprised.
"I'm sorry I just didn't know where else to go." She said looking down. In a small moment, I catched a gaze of her face, she was crying. "I'm just- This was so stupid, I'm sorry to bother you, I'm leaving." She said turning around but I grabbed her hand and pulled her into a hug. She started crying in my chest and it just hurt me to see her like this.
"Come here." I said closing the door and taking her to the small couch. "We need to talk."
"Yes, please." She said with a small laugh, that suddenly turned serious as tears tarted to stop. "I'm sorry, like really sorry Ozzy. I panicked and I didn't know what to do, I was idiotic and inmature. And I was scared that after that happened you wouldn't want to be with me anymore, as you said, you hate the chaotic." She said.
"I forgive you Di, but please, never assume that I'm going away. I want you and I chose you, the last words that left my mouth that day are still intact. I know I also did my mistakes as I raised my voice and I ignored the facts. I'm sorry too, and yes, I still love you."
"Even after making your life more crazy and chaotic?" She was quick to respond.
"Yes, that is one of my favorite parts as you bring change in my life, good one. Di please don't push me away, I like you for you, darling." I said as she immediately buried her head in my chest.
"I love you so much." She muffled, but I wanted to bothered her.
"Huh?" I said while a smirk showed on my face.
"I love you, aussi boy. So much!" She said as I cupped her face and kissed. Oh how I missed her touch.
"And I love you too, sunshine." He said.
"Ah, new nickname I see." She said giggling.
"Well because you are like being bathed in sunshine." I said shyly and she kissed me again.
"I love it."
