A promise to keep [Lando Norris]

"Are you and Lando fucking?"

I think my heart actually stopped for a full minute. I just stared back at her, she was new into my life but god did she get right to the point.

If we're talking technicalities then no we aren't fucking, because we haven't actually had sex. I knew however that she didn't mean that exactly, she wanted to know if there was anything going on at all.

I think my delayed response said everything it needed too.

"Oh my god" She gasps as her hands come over to her mouth. I watch as she slowly takes a seat on the bed, her hands still covering her mouth in shock.

Damage control was needed.

"We haven't actually had sex" I blurt out, like that somehow would fix this entire mess I was now in.

My brother's girlfriend knew I was sleeping with his best friend. I needed her to not say a single word to Max, I knew it would end up in flames somehow.

Either flames or a murder trial.

"Wait" She asks as a frown is presented on her face. "What do you mean? So you haven't slept together but there is something happening?"

"Yes" I confirm.

I didn't know what was going on, we were messing around. Neither of us had directly said what was happening, sure that night in Bahrain he told me he wanted me.

That he didn't care what Max had to say.

His actions twenty minutes ago said otherwise. I was confused about what was going on, so how was I supposed to tell someone else.

"So what's going on?"

I sigh before sitting down in the chair opposite her. My hands cover my eyes for a few seconds before I look back over at her confused face, I was as confused as she was right now.

"It's just all happened so fast"

It has been fast, we kissed three weeks go in Monaco but there was nothing after that. Not until we got to Bahrain.

"We first kissed the night you met Max, he went back with you and asked Lando to ensure I got back okay" I watch as she nods, taking in all the information I was giving her. "That was all it was a kiss, it was good kiss for sure"

"So then?" She asks fishing for more.

"Nothing happened until Bahrain, Max was off with you and I was alone with him again. He got jealous over Verstappen flirting with me, so we went back to his motor home and well we kissed again. But that time it was more, well sexual"

By that I meant I had straddled him, his hands roamed my body. I wanted more as well, I craved more in that moment.

"Oh my, so this started before we even got there?"

"Yes" I speak, in reality this has started years ago.

The moment I laid on him, I wanted Lando Norris. It had taken a few years sure, but he was mine now. Sure he was acting like a dick now, but I still wanted him.

"So you haven't had sex?"

"No, but we've done almost everything before that" I share, I didn't know this girl very well but she was good at getting information out of me for sure. "He took me on a date, in Bahrain and it was amazing"

"So you two aren't just screwing around?"

Well, I sure as hell wasn't.

If he wanted to play the game of making one another jealous we could play.

"No, I think I really like him Pietra" I confess, it was the first time I had said it out loud. "You cannot tell Max!"

"Don't worry, I won't"

We sit there in silence for a few seconds, I didn't know what to say to her. I guess I was confused as my brain was full of thoughts of Lando, wondering why he's lost his mind so easily.

"How did you figure it out"

I watch as she giggles, like it was so obvious. If it was that obvious Max would have figured it out by now.

I guess he is a man tho, they're pretty oblivious to life.

"In the lobby, Lando wouldn't stop looking back when he was with fans. He was flirting with them to piss you off, have you two had an argument or something?"

I knew it wasn't just me seeing that, he was doing it to get under my skin. It worked for sure, but I wasn't here to play games.

If he liked me then he needed to act that way. I wasn't going to play his stupid little games, I was risking a lot with him. I was risking my relationship with my brother, but more importantly I was risking my already fragile heart.

I couldn't lose him too.

"He got all weird with me after you guys left, after I made the comments about not being in love with him to Max"

"Are you in love with him?"

"Not yet" I speak, I wasn't lying.

Sure I liked him a lot, but love was a strong feeling and I didn't feel that way just yet.

"I am falling for him, but I'm just not in love just yet"

"Maybe he's already there" She adds, I shoot my head up to look over at her with shock behind my eyes.

Perhaps that was it, he had fallen harder for me therefore my words must have hurt him. Me saying I wasn't in love with him, while he stands there in love with me.

"Do you think I hurt him?"

"Maybe, but he should know that you were only saying it because it was Max" She shrugs. "If he was more grown up, he might have just communicated with you. I think he just lashed out"

"I don't want a tit for tat relationship"

"So talk to him" She speaks, I guess she was right.

But he had also pissed me off, I didn't want to run to him showing all my cards. I needed to keep some close to my chest.

"Am I a bad person if I get even?"

"What are you thinking?" She smirks

I guess there was nothing wrong with getting even?

If he wanted to make me jealous, I knew one way to get him back.

I KNOW I SAID NO DRAMA, BUT THIS IS A SMALL ONE THAT WILL LEAD TO SPICE!

Lots of love
