18. Lola the bunny

The weeks  following after the Silverstone race had been pretty hectic for lita.

She had spent the first few days back in her apartment wrapped up in the Amazon blanket autumn had gotten her for Christmas which had Pedro pascal on it needless to say she never left it behind

Until autumn and lando came to drag her out to a club.

However by Wednesday of the second week lita had begun to receive texts from her half brother Aaron. Reaching out to ask to maybe grab coffee while they had these two weeks off, she felt conflicted.

On one hand lita wanted to get to know who Aaron was as a person, she hadn't known off him till the week before but curiosity stabbed her back,
although on the other hand she didn't want anything to do with her dad anymore and this would still keep strings between the two.

Needless to say on Friday she sat in a cafe called 'la morbing'

Tapping her fingers on the table nervously, she couldn't help but snap her head over to the door anytime the little bell went off signaling someone had entered.

Sipping her hot chocolate quietly as the smell of different baked goods and coffee filled her nostrils she heard a throat clear its self behind her...

Aaron.

The familiar brown hair and honey coloured eyes made her stomach twist, it was crazy to think this dude in front of her was her half brother.

"Uh hi" lita smiled up at him awkwardly before looking away behind him

"I didn't think you'd show up" his chuckle was warm causing some soothing to her nerves while he took a seat across from her.

"I didn't think I would either but then I got a craving for hot chocolate" she smiled sheepishly

"At this time of the year?" Aaron laughed "it's summer, wouldn't you be better with i don't know a slushie"

she gasped dramatically "okay now you've gone and gotten yourself a bad point in my books already"

"The horror" he mocked back causing a small smile to twitch on litas lips.

"Well since this is us officially meeting I think we mays well do it awkwardly but properly" Aaron held out his hand "hi I'm Aaron"

She looked at him amused before slipping her hand into his with slight hesitation "Lolita but lita to most" she shook his hand

"Why not Lola?" He snorted causing her to scoff

"Because I'm not a bunny" she glared

"I beg to differ" Aaron moved his head as she threw a napkin at him and laughed

"Im gonna call you Lola from now on" she scoffed at that

"Don't even."
____________________________________

To say that lita hadn't went back to her apartment that day with a massive grin on her face would of been a lie even the man on the moon could see it

She had really enjoyed her time at the cafe with Aaron even though he may off called her Lola the whole time to annoy her it still didn't dim the good feeling flowing effortlessly through her body.

By the Thursday lita stood in the airport with her MacBook tucked under her arm and a blue backpack with daisies all over it slung over her shoulder lazily

Instead of going anything close to sheek, lita had decided on a pair of lilac sweatpants, white tub top and a flannel over it. She really wasn't bothered when she got out of bed at 4am.

Getting herself a chocolate cupcake and of course a Lewis Hamilton monster, she made her way to the boarding gates and took a seat

Not bothering to pay much attention to her surroundings she popped open sims 4 and began crafting on the houses to kill time.

Around 10 minutes later a person slumped into the chair beside her, lita didn't bother to look up until she heard an all too familiar voice

"Eye spy with my little eye" he paused "a wild Lonnie before my eyes"

Pausing, lita turned her head slowly before narrowing her eyes.

"Following me now emilian? Thought you couldn't go any lower" the Dutchman chuckled, an all to welcoming feeling of warmth spread through his stomach at her remark

"Good to see you to Lonnie" he leaned back in the chair and hung his arm lazily over the back of hers lazily.

"What are you even doing here max?" Lita sighed turning her gaze back to her laptop

"Oh you know taking a flight for fun" the Dutchman spoke sarcastically "not like it's the Hungarian race this weekend"

"Well I know that" she scoffed with an eye-roll "but don't you have like a private jet"

"Yeah" max shrugged

"So why didn't you use it then" she spoke in a duh tone

"Dad took it for the weekend" he looked away and around the airport

"But it's your jet?" Lita furrowed her eyebrows gently

"Yeah well never killed anyone to fly first class for a change" his blue eyes looked over to her and traced her outfit causing her cheeks to pink slightly but nothing to noticeable.

"Suppose not" lita shrugged as the speakers in the gate area went off

"Gate 8b now open to board  for flight 243 going to Budapest,  Hungary"

Looking over to each other they both rolled their eyes.

Standing up max stretched slightly causing his dark grey t-shirt to rise up slightly and reveal his lower abs causing a flutter in litas stomach before she forced her eyes back to her laptop screen

saving and shutting the macbook she stood up in a similar fashion while others in the area started to cue to board the plane.

grabbing his own bag, max reached out and flung litas backpack over his other shoulder while she tucked her MacBook under her arm once again

gesturing for her to go lita made her way over to the line with max follow suit.

"Do you think we'll get the same row?" He grinned down at her cockily

"God sake" she lightly shivered at the thought "hope not for my own sanity"

both handing their tickets over before receiving it back max placed his hand on her lower back causing a warm feeling to shoot up he spine

"Just think about it Lonnie" he spoke lower than before as they began to walk down the tunnel "5 hours with yours truly"

"I'll jump out the plane window."

Au// thought I'd do a different root for this chapter instead of just doing races and quali, hope it was good. Some progression between Aaron and lita I wonder how that'll play out
