I woke up with a banging head, instantly regretting drinking so much the night before. The morning sun blinding me through through the, making me open my eyes. I open them to find a strangers arm draped on my stomach. This isn't my room nor my house.

Silently I get up, not wanting to wake the woman.
I try to locate my clothes, putting them on as I find them. Lastly I find my phone and the thankfully already signed NDA. I couldn't get around as much as I do with them.

I still remember a couple years ago I had my first hook up with a girl that I had meant to call later but before I had the chance she had already given a detailed report to the press about the night we spent.

Without glancing back I quickly rush out the front door. I call myself an uber, the only thing I want to do right now is get home and maybe shower.
1 minute from your location
Thank god. I don't want to be here any longer, my had is still pounding. Swiftly I put my sunglasses on and my hood up, I'm in no mood to get recognised.

                                      ————

I swing open my front door with a sigh, I'm starting to see more and more black and my head is fuzzy.
This can't be a good sign. Even for myself, last night was way too much. I can't be this wasted again, especially with the new season coming up.

On the search for some water I enter the kitchen.
I gulp down glass after glass while death gripping the counter for some much needed stability. After finding some Ibuprofen, I swallow it with my next sip of cold water.

A cold jet of water hits my bare back, I had decided that a cold shower would probably free up my mind.
I lean my forehead against the wall, slowly breathing. On days like this I wish I could call my father, I miss talking to him.

Nowadays everything is centered around my career how the car will perform this year. Don't get me wrong, I love my job, I adore racing but sometimes it's as if people care more about my career and image than about me as a person.

Everyday has been a bit harder since I lost Jules but every day after I lost my dad has been torture. It's not like I don't have any family left, it's just that sometimes when I look at them, the only thought in my head is When will I lose them.

Why love a person when you know that in the end you will loose them and can't do a thing about it?
I won't put myself it that position again.
I'm not sure whether I could handle having my heart in pieces again.
