Blueberry- Lando Norris

Part 5

Lando and Iris stayed here during the night. The two got to know each other better. I drank a little too much last night. Lando is sleeping, next to me, holding me. I wake him up with a kiss. "If you sleep too much, you will lose the race." He stood up slowly "Lando, you're fine, you're pale" "I'm fine, don't worry." Easy to say, I think we would have been better off not drinking last night. He gets off the bed, gets dressed and goes down to the kitchen. I follow him where Iris had already prepared breakfast. She didn't stay with us at the table; she called an Uher and went back to the hotel. Lando looks terrible and I told this several times, but always the same answer "I'm fine".

We got into the car and left, towards the paddock. When we arrived, many cameramen and reporters wanted an interview. It was the first time we appeared together in public. Lando stopped to sign a few autographs. We both went to the McLaren garage where we met Oscar. "Mate, you look terrible" "I'm fine" He's already overreacting with this answer. If I hear him one more time, I think I'll beat him so that he won't be well. Zak appears behind us. "Alright guys, get ready, it's time for an interview, he's going to ask you some questions, Answer how you feel, but right now, not a word related to the relationship with Sahra. You've been seen together and now everyone wants to know more. We're not really rushing things that much," Lando and Oscar left. I stayed in the garage. It's the first time I come to Formula 1. I look on the other side and see that there are more people here. "Sahra!" I hear a voice calling me, I see Iris, Charles and another man next to him, "Hey guys!" "Hey! S, he's Carlos, Charles's teammate." "Sahra, delighted, Although I could say that I already know you." "Really? I know you, I love your music, especially the ones in Spanish. Where do you know me from? I didn't think that artists like you watch Formula 1?" "I'm not watching. Iris and Chase do, and I'm the victim of their arguments" "Chase?" Carlos asked. "Yes...my younger brother. We live together, me,  Iris and Chase. They are both big fans of Formula 1. Well...big fans of Ferrari. They always argue about who is higher in the rankings, but at finally they are happy for the team." "Seriously?" Charles asks Iris with a smile on her face. She doesn't say anything, she just smiles. "Iris...can we talk for a bit?" Charles and Carlos retire.

"Are you crazy!? You're married to my brother and dating Charles?!" "S, I don't meet him, but I've wanted to meet him for many years and now I have the chance." "If you say Iris I want you to be happy, even if it means being with him, but please, please don't make fun of Chase. He's my brother and you're like a sister to me. I've known him since I was 6. I've known Chase since he was 19. Don't make me choose." "I will never do that. I am not with Charles. My heart will be forever in love with Chase."

"So, you said you're coming with someone else, aren't you going to introduce us too?" Charles asks. "Well...I came here with my boyfriend" I didn't want to lie to him. Theoretically I didn't. Me and Lando, we have a contract from which it appears, that we are dating. "Ooo, I thought I had a chance too." Carlos joked. "Sahra" came a voice from behind me again, "Oscar!" "Come with me. I'm sorry, but I have to steal her from you" "No problem, just make sure you bring it back intact" jokes Carlos. I saw their faces. Great, now they think I'm dating Oscar. Iris quickly texts me and asks if she should tell them. I answer her, to leave it like that.

"Where are we going? Lando asked you to call me?" "No, I came for you." "Should I be worried?" "Sahra, for the next period, you will be Lando's girlfriend for some time, we should try to understand each other. And, I did not refuse to sign because I did not want to be with you. I simply want to have a serious relationship, where I don't have to look good for the camera. I know Lando would have wanted that too, it was his choice." I'm glad he told me what he felt. "I hope you'll come and tell me if Lando does anything wrong. I'll take care of it right away," "Thanks, Oscar." I say as I give him a hug. He's surprised, and he doesn't immediately hug me back, but he understands and does in the end. "Oscar? What if I already fell in love with Lando?" "Then you should talk to Zak. The contract says you have to
appear together is only for a week, thus increasing the popularity of both" "Sorry to interrupt, but I'd like to talk to Sahra" appears, Charles behind us. "I hope it's not a problem that I steal your girlfriend a little...?""Actually, me and Sahra were about to go and have dinner together. So yes, it's a problem that you want me to take my girlfriend. " Oscar grabs my waist and pulls me after him. As I turn around, I manage to whisper an apology to Charles. He understands and confirms to me that it's ok. I walk a little with Oscar until I get to his and Lando's room, "WTF Oscar! What was that? I just told you I like Lando and you're telling Charles I'm your girlfriend!?" "So you like me, Blueberry..." I turn to see him. Lando is leaning against the wall "Fuck! Now I'm so ashamed. Can you...pretend you didn't hear anything...?" "Would you like it?" I look at the ground, waiting for him to say something. "Blueberry, go home. Get ready. I'll pick you up at 8. I have a surprise."

I listen to him. I left from the garage of McLaren. Before going to the car I choose to go to the Ferrari garage to talk to Iris. I can't reach it, because I feel a hand pulling me, in a narrow place between two walls. I don't have time to tell him anything. Someone is holding my mouth, my nose and doing it tightly. He starts to press harder and harder leaving me gasping. I can no longer feel my body, and my vision blurred. I pass out before I see who is next to me.
