The Helmet Crown: The Racing Driver And The Royal Prince

NINE

WARNING! It can be bad language in this chapter!

"Back in Italy. Yay" I said with sarcasm in my voice. "I'm so excited"

"Shut up Jules! I'm glad that you and Fabio wanted to come to my race" Lando said and I just rolled my eyes.

"What about me?"

"Of course I'm glad that you came along too" Lando smiled and put his arms on Raul shoulders. "But now I have to ask you Jules something? What is going on with the Italian prince? I saw the news few weeks ago"

"Nothing. We are just good friends" I smiled while we continued walking through the paddock and in to the McLaren hospitality. We talked for like few minutes more before Lando boss came and wanted to talk with Lando alone so they disappeared in to a room. But then Oscar came and smiled widely when he saw us.

"MATES! What the fuck are you doing here?!

"We are here to support you guys. We have our summer break now so we thought we could take our chances and make it happen"

"Oh okay but then you have to remember me to come to Great Britain when my summer break starts!"

"I can promise that Oscah" Lando said while coming back from the room. "I was going to go on that too" he smiled and put his arm on Oscar shoulders. Oscar just smiled and looked back at us. "By the way did you guys hear that the whole royal family going to be here this weekend? Zak told me. Lewis is stressing out over that"

"What? Why?"

"Because Vettel his boyfriend is going to be here. The king is so against lgbdq. I think Lewis is scared that the king is going to open his mouth and say something extremely stupid. Then Sebastian is going to start an argument with him. Wouldn't surprise me" Lando said while rolling his eyes. But then we saw panic in Oscar eyes and he started walking around in the building.

"What's wrong with him now? Does he also have a boyfriend or something?"

"No he doesn't. He has a girlfriend but I think he got nervous because his best friend has a boyfriend. That boyfriend is me"

"So you are together with his best friend who is?"

"Logan Sargeant"

"Since when?"

"Three years ago. But if I'm going to be correctly he is actually my fiancée. Because just before this season started I went down on one knee and asked him if he wanted to marry me. Of course he said yes" Lando smiled proudly. The rest of us just rolled our eyes and then I looked for Oscar but he had disappeared. So I excused myself and left the hospitality to look for Oscar. I walked for like 10 minutes before I found him outside of the Williams garage talking to Alexander Albon and Logan Sargeant.

"There you are"

"Jules!" Oscar said in panic and turned around to face me. "I just wanted to check on Logan"

"I can promise you that nothing will happen to him or Lando" I smiled and put my arm on his shoulders. Oscar just nod and smiled at me before he turned back to Logan and Alexander. They talk about the race weekend and I tried my hardest to understand every single word of what they said. But got interrupted by a text message so I picked up my phone.

-You really love 🇮🇹
-Maybe because I live in Italy smartass!
-Yea I know but I thought you would come to 🇵🇹? Maybe you have changed your mind?
-I'm coming right after this race weekend is over. I promise you that Diddi
-Is Clara coming?
-No or I don't think so. Enea said they couldn't join because I don't know. Then he also said that he was coming this weekend but I haven't seen him yet. So I don't know what to believe
-Maybe they just making a child before joining you guys😉
-WTF? No! I don't want to know what my teammate is doing with my sister!
-Okay hahaha but say hi to Diego from me
-I promise. See you next week

I smiled and put my phone down in my pocket when someone grabbed my arm and we disappeared behind a hospitality. Then they covered my mouth so I wouldn't scream. Few seconds later I finally saw who it was and I kissed him. He kissed me back and grabbed my waist while pushing me against a wall. Few minutes later Diego and I separated our lips from each other and I rested my head on the wall while looking in to his eyes. He was smiling but his eyes looked extremely sad and extremely tired.

"How is it?"

"I'm just tired. I have been arguing with my father every day since he found out about the picture and rumors about us"

"Oh I didn't know. I knew that he would hate it but I didn't think he was going to argue with you for days"

"No one knows and father wants to keep it that way. He wants our family to look more than perfect for the media. But behind closed doors he is the devils dad. Our family is far from being perfect. My oldest brother Enzo is taking drugs to survive a whole day with my father. My mom wants a divorce and my other brothers want to leave and move to an other country. None of us wants to talk with my father if it isn't in front of a camera"

"That's horrible"

"I know" Diego said while a tear was running down his face. "The only good thing in my life is you. You don't judge me. You love me for me. I could just leave my home and follow you wherever you go but I can't" he sighed and let go of me. He was looking at the ground while we were just standing in silence. After a few minutes he hugged me before we said goodbye and walked away in to different directions. I walked back to the McLaren but on the way I saw Enea and Clara walking over to Ferrari.

"Hello guys"

"Hi Juju! Where have you been? Because we walked in to McLaren and they said that you went to look for Oscar. But when we found Oscar he said that you had left with a guy. They didn't see who it was because he had a hood on who covered the face"

"I just met up with a friend. You don't know him" I lied while looking at the ground.

"Oh okay but I have to tell you something"

"What is it Coco?"

"Owen and Seraphina is coming tomorrow" they are going to hang out with us during the summer break.

"I'm leaving on Monday"

"What? Why haven't you told me?"

"I don't have to tell you everything that happened in my life" I mumbled as I was giving Clara the death stare. She just rolled her eyes and walked in to the Ferrari hospitality. Enea was still standing in front of me and looked extremely confused at me.

"I thought you were going to tell her yourself. You were talking about it"

"I know but that has changed. Or I maybe forgot to tell her. But now I have booked the flight. So I'm going to Portugal and hang out with Dolores and Rafael. They saw the opportunity and they took it" I smiled and Enea just rolled his eyes. But then we both froze when we saw Lando came running for his life to us. And when he stops he just said in a whisper that the king was here and that he had talked shit to Lewis and Logan. Then Lando started crying because he couldn't find Logan anywhere. No one could and the practice was about to start. So Enea and I said that we would help him and just 15 minutes before Logan needed to be in the car I found him behind the Williams hospitality crying. In that moment I just wanted to find the king and punch him hard in the face. Instead I sat down next to Logan and gave him a hug. Now I know why Diego was so scared to get caught.
