Ashley POV

"Ok that looks perfect," Lily said as were dressed up for the night. We stood in front of the mirror. "I wear three layers of race suit and a helmet. The only part people see are my eyes. I feel like I'm exposed" I said as I turned around at looked at me are back.

"You wanted this one," she said. "Yeah, my boyfriend broke up with me. I make rogue decisions. And I took you with me to stop me from taking those" I huffed.

"For what it's worth. You look damn hot" she said when Alex entered in after giving a knock. "Are you girls ready?" he asked and he was a bit taken aback by my dress.

"God, girls, and their post-break-up era," he said. "Hey," Lily slapped him in his arms. "Lando is waiting downstairs with his date" he announced. 

"Wait, what...Wha-..What date?" I asked. 

"I don't know. Guess he is waiting to introduce her to us. Also, George is with Carmen." he said. Both me and Lily looked at him shocked.

"What?" Lily sneered. "Please tell me this was not because of the picture Lando posted," I said. Alex gave a helpless look.

"I knew it. I knew she would be back" I said putting my hands up and sitting on my bed.

"And George is okay with that?" Lily asked. "Well, George is George. He's the nicest guy on the planet" Alex said.

 "One night I don't have a boyfriend and you guys decide to bring all your girlfriends. Now I am what seventh wheeling.  No offense Lily. I don't seem to control my mouth in my post-breakup era" I said putting on my heels.

"I'm surprised George didn't tell you about it," Alex told me. "I'm his friend Alex. Not his mother. I am happy for him actually" I said a a small tingle forming in my stomach.

"We should go," I said ignoring it.

Third Person POV

Alex, Lily, and Ash made their way towards the lobby of the hotel. Lando and his date Luisinhia, a Portuguese model noticed the trio. 

Lando greeted all three with a hug. "Guys this is Lui. Lui this is Alex and Lily. They are a couple" Lui greeted both and hugged Lily.

"And this is Ashley. My best friend" he introduced. Ash shared a warm hug with her. "Just so you know. Big fan," she said to Ashley.

"Pleasure is mine" She replied. The group noticed George and Carmen making their way towards them.

"I put that pic for something else and something else happened" Lando whispered in Alex's ears agitated but maintaining a smile on his face.

"Hello Guys. It's been a long time" Carmen said with a warm smile. Lily shared a not-so-hug with Carmen. She only gave a small nod to Ash which she returned. They all waited for the cars to pick them up.

"Ash, which one of us are you sharing?" Lando asked. Ashley didn't answer because she didn't wanna be in the middle of a couple.

"She'll go with me." she heard Lewis behind her and he put a hand on her shoulder. "You guys can go on. We'll get a car" he added.

"You okay with that?" he asked Ashley. She gave a vigorous nod. "Sure. But promise me no sponsor talking" she said.

"Done," he said laughing.
