Past and Present

21

Enjoy the few fluff chapters I managed to write while busy with the write-ups for work as well. I didn't proof read this as much as the older chapters, but I do hope there are only minor errors.

Soon after, the bathroom door opens again and Lando's wearing his swim shorts underneath an oversized hoodie, "I thought you'll sleep? Why are you wearing your swim shorts?" I asked amused by his choice of sleeping clothes as I push my way inside the bathroom. Not waiting for his answer, I closed the bathroom door on his face just for a little revenge for what he did earlier. I decided to put my hair on a loose bun then proceeded to take off my clothes and change into one of the bikinis I brought with me. I decided to wear my black bandeau two-piece bikini today then I wore a loose tank top. I got out of the bathroom and I was confused that I do not see a sleeping Lando on the bed.

"Huh. He must have went to the other boys." I muttered as I walk to my stuff to grab the book I brought with me before making my way to the pool.

"You said you're going to sleep." I asked as soon as I noticed Lando's sitting at the edge of the pool with his legs dipped already on the water.

Lando looked at me and for a minute I thought I was going to melt in front of him by how intense he was suddenly staring at me. I cleared my throat and thankfully he looked away before answering, "I got jealous that you're going to take a dip already." I place my book on the coffee table and sat beside him with my legs on the water as well.

I chuckled, "so that explains why you are wearing your swim shorts in the first place." He chuckled as well then it went silent between us; so I decided to ask, "so tell me more about this no rules weekend trip you guys go to every year before Silverstone."

Lando laughed a little, "it's more like getting flat out drunk for five days and them doing God knows what with their girlfriends whenever they're alone."

"Wait, I thought you guys always share one big place." I asked confusingly which made Lando laugh again.

He shook his head, "nah, the setup has always been like this. We all get our own rooms, for this instance - a villa - to ourselves. Kelly only said that because it's the first time that I don't have the room or villa to myself." Lando smiled after.

I looked at him in complete disbelief, "I don't believe you. Even last year? When you were dating some mysterious European girl who might I add – have never met or seen?!"

Lando looked at me and chuckled, "Margaux wasn't able to come with us last year because she was on a vacation trip already with her friends."

So he invited her to a weekend like this, huh. Max and the others is probably close with his ex as well. I felt a certain pang in my chest just by the thought of it. What the hell? Am I getting jealous over the fact that she knows about this kind of trip and I don't? Huh.

An "O" formed in my mouth before I speak again, "what about the years prior to last year? I don't believe you didn't have one night stands." I look at him suspiciously.

Now it's Lando who is looking at me in complete disbelief and appears to be slightly offended by what I just said, "uhh, rude." He sassily answered me, "but to answer you, no I never had one night stands."

"Ever?"

"Ever." He firmly answered with full conviction. I am still looking at him suspiciously but this time I toned down a bit; I wanna smile so wide right now because for some reason the pain I just felt in my chest turned to something that made it flutter and skipped a beat just by hearing that little confession he did.
