WARNING! It can be bad language in this chapter!

"Hey Fire!"

"Olá"

"How is it? You were excited for this weekend like two days ago. What happened?"

"I haven't slept so good this past two days but nothing you have to worry about"

"I'm your fucking boss so of course I have to worry when one of my drivers don't sleep! So are you going to tell me what Raul said or is it extremely private? Don't look surprised! I saw him leaving your room the other night when I was on my way to my room. I know that you two are close"

"Is was nothing about the race or our strategy. It was a thing between me and him. But that has nothing to do with my sleep situation. I just have a little to much in my head that I not want to talk about" I said while rolling my thumbs.

"If you say so" Leo said before getting up from the chair to leave my room but stopped in the doorway. "By the way someone is here and looking for you" he smiled before closing my door and left. So I fast got up from the couch and got changed in to race clothes before leaving the room to see who it was. Few minutes later my heart stopped and my body went in to shock.

"ATLAS?" I screamed as I saw that him and a girl turned at my direction.

"Hi Jules. Long time no see"

"What the hell are you fucking doing here?!"

"Support my girlfriend's brothers" he smiled and looked me up and down. I just looked surprised at him before turning around to face the girl.

"Who is your brothers?"

"Marc and Alex Marquez" she smiled as she held out her hand to me. "My name is Luisa Marquez. I'm their younger sister"

"Nice to meet you. I'm Jules FireFlower" I smiled back as I shook her hand. "I didn't know they had a sister. They never mentioned it"

"Of course they haven't. Typical them" she said while rolling her eyes. I just laughed a little before I said that I needed to go to my garage and talk with Felix. After that we said goodbye and I started walking over to my garage. When I was inside I sat down on my chair and started listening to music. I also looked through my phone to see that Clara had texted me a few times so I took a deep breath before answering her. After that I just looked through Instagram and TikTok while I saw people were working everywhere in the garage and around the bikes.  Then when it was time I put my helmet and gloves on before I jumped on the bike to drive off. The whole race went pretty smoothly and I ended up on second place after Enea who won.

"Congrats to second place Jules" Atlas said after he had come up to me right after I came back from the podium.

"Thanks man" I smiled while continuing to walk over to my room to shower.

"Can we talk?"

"Later because I need to shower now" I said and Atlas just nod while smiling at me. I just shrugged and left. When I got to my room, I took off everything and almost jumped in to the shower. Turned it on and I started singing like usual when it was a good day. But got interrupted by that my phone got a text message so I turned the shower off and walked out.

-Why is your ex there?
-Because his girlfriend's brothers was racing
-You promise?
-Yes!
-Say it
-I promise you that he was here with his girlfriend to watch her brothers race!
-Good

I just rolled my eyes and stated searching for some comfortable clothes. But while I was looking after clothes I couldn't help myself to hate that I had told and showed pictures of Atlas to Diego. I didn't know why Diego needed to know that anyway but I just shook it off and got dressed. After that I left my room to see that Atlas was actually standing outside and waiting so I walked straight up to him.

"Are you waiting for your girl?"

"No, I was waiting for you. I wanted to talk but you said that you wanted to shower so I waited" he smiled and I just gave him a confused look. "Are you hungry? I'm starving. Let's get something to eat" he said and I just nod but was still confused. But I agreed on that and we walked to a small restaurant. We got a table and we ordered some food and drinks before I finally looked at Atlas who was looking on the table.

"So what did you want to talk about?"

"To be honest I didn't only come here to support her brothers. I actually come because I wanted to apologize to you" he said before talking a deep breath. "I wanted to tell you I'm sorry that I never came to your races or wanted to do stuff with you in public. I was just scared that my family would see that before I could tell them I'm bisexual. I thought they would never accept that. The other reason is that I wasn't used to being front of a camera or something like that. But the thing I hate the most about myself is that I actually was cheating on you one time with some random girl. It happened after we accidentally got caught and that's why I broke up with you. I was feeling really bad but I was stressing out over that someone had posted about us kissing before I had told my family. I'm really sorry. I should have told you sooner" he said without looking a single second at me. I was just sitting there in shock and didn't know what to say or do. Felt like my body had stopped working. But then I came back to realty when I felt my phone was vibrating in my pocket so I picked it up to see it was Diego who was calling. But I just shook my head and put the phone back in my pocket. Then I look up at Atlas who was sitting nervously on the other side of the table waiting for me to answer him. I tried to give him a normal smile but I think it only looked creepy because Atlas was looking scared and confused.

"I don't know what to say or do. But I think we should just forget about the past and move on. I'm not mad at you or anything. You don't have to worry about that. Let's just start over and be friends. Or is that too early or late for it?"

"Not at all. I would be more than happy if we could start over and become friends" he smiled but got interrupted by that our food arrived at the table. But then my phone started ringing over and over again so I could just sighed loudly and turned the phone completely off. The rest of the evening was quiet and when we were done Atlas went to pay for everything before we left the restaurant. After that we just said goodbye and started walking in two completely different directions. I went straight to my hotel to get some rest before Raul and Enea would come and all three of us would go together to the party. But instead of just laying and listen to music from my laptop while focus on my breathing. I accidentally fell asleep and woke up later thanks to Raul and Enea who was banging on the door while saying my name. So I fast shook my head and jumped out of bed before running up to the door.

"IS YOUR PHONE DEAD OR SOMETHING?!" Enea screamed in my face so I thought I would be deaf while he looked like he was going to punch me in the face.

"Que?! Não" I answered and walked over to my bed again to pick up my phone. "Shit! I had completely forget to turn it back on. Sorry about that guys"

"SORRY? I THOUGHT SOMETHING HAD FUCKING HAPPENED TO YOU FUCKING DICKHEAD"

"Okay Enea, calm down and let Jules go and take a quick shower while we looking for some good party clothes for him" Raul said while taking Enea away from me. I just nod and almost ran in to the bathroom to get undressed. Turned the shower on and when I was done I took a towel and started drying my body like crazy. After that I unlocked the door and took the towel around my waist before leaving the bathroom. Both Enea and Raul were sitting on my bed with a smile on their faces. I just laughed while shaking my head and took the clothes they were holding. After I was done Raul sprayed some perfume on me then Enea took my hand and I almost got dragged out of the room because Enea was half running. Raul was just laughing at us because it probably looked a little bit funny but I couldn't care less. I was just happy to be with my friends and that we were on our way to a party. We were going to celebrate Enea win and all of that made me completely forget about Diego and to call him back.
