For a moment I'm taken back to reality.
There are a bunch of drivers sitting at the same table as me including my best friend whom I've dreamt of being in f1 with for as long as I can remember.
There's a pause in Liam and I's conversation when I notice the other drivers staring at us.
"I'm so sorry my names Lacy and yes I am the new driver for McLaren I'm sorry I'm just so shocked to see this one right here." I say pointing to Liam.
"No worries at all. It's nice to meet you Lacy." Daniel says with a smile.
"Yes we've got to keep an eye out for Lacy here as she's a little nervous as to how the world will take a female driver." Lando explains.
"Not to worry I'm sure you'll prove your spot quickly. I've seen your stuff in f2." Charles mentions.
"Thank you yes I hope so." I smile back.
For a moment I'm taking this all in. My new teammate on one side of me and my childhood friend on the other side.
I feel infinite.
Just then I flinch at the sound of a dish smashing against the floor.
My shoulder brushes against Landos as I'm caught off guard from the sudden noise.
Instead of looking at the waiter desperately cleaning up the mess he had made Lando turns to meet my eyes with a worrisome look.
"Sorry." I whisper to him with a smile.
"No problem." He whispers back.
It's in that moment that I realize the glass that is currently scattered across my kitchen floor.
And the fact that Lando would have seen it when he walked inside.
How could I have been so stupid to forget to clean it up.
That's the first thing I will do when I get back. Oh my I wonder what he thinks of me after that.
"You guys hear that they're making us film Grill the Grid again this year." Max sparks up a conversation.
"Oh my gosh I'm so excited to be able to try that for the first time." I respond.
"Yea same here. I just hope I know people well enough." Liam adds.
"Trust me you'll be sick of us by the end of the season. Especially your teammate." Carlos says with a wink to Max.
"You too Lacy you'll be tired of seeing that muppet beside you." Carlos adds.
Lando and I look at eachother with a laugh.
Just then I feel my phone buzz.
Dan.
"Flight had to make a stop in Barcelona. Big storm. Stay safe. X"
I relax after seeing his message. I was scared he'd bring up our argument from earlier.
"Apparently there's a storm coming our way guys just got a text from my boyfriend he was supposed to fly back out to Canada tonight."
"Wait you're from Canada?" Charles asks.
"You're still with that guy?" Liam says simultaneously.
"Yes to both of those questions." I respond.
Liam just gives me a fake smile.
"What?" I ask as I'm caught off guard by his look.
"Nothing nothing just didn't know you guys were still together." He defends himself.
