Lando's POV

Taura agreed to go somewhere with me. Didn't complain, didn't question anything. For once, she just agreed with me.

Progress.

Grabbed the keys of the Mclaren, had to impress her in some way, right?

"What car are we taking?" She asked, trying to look at the keys in my hand. "The Mclaren?"

She shook her head. "No, not the Mclaren please"

Not the Mclaren? She was the only girl who would complain about me wanting to take the Mclaren.

But fair enough, took another car. Whatever would make her happy.

It was already getting later, the sun was going down, leaving us with a view of a beautiful sunset as we drove up the hill.

She looked outside, put her head on her hand and smiled as she looked at the sunset. "Beautiful, right?" She asked.

I looked at her. "Yeah, it definitely is"

Wasn't talking about the sunset.

I drove up the mountain, parked my car and got out.

"So what's the plan?" Taura asked as she got out of the car. "Are you gonna throw me off this hill?"

Why did she always think I was planning her downfall? I wasn't - didn't want to see her fail.

Not anymore.

I didn't hate the fact that she and her Mercedes boys beat me, I hated that she distracted me.

And I hate that she will never completely trust me.

"I was planning on showing you the sunset, but we are too late for that" I said as I sat down on the hood of my car.

She did the same, putting her hands behind her back and leaning down.

"Thanks" she mumbled. "It's beautiful" she looked at me, smiled.
Her dimples popped out again, her Bambi eyes looking at me.

My heart skipped several beats. My eyes went from her eyes to her lips, back to her eyes.

And back to her fucking lips.

She noticed it too, because she bit her lower lip. Did she want me to kiss her?

Or was I making things up in my mind?

Probably the latter.

I cleared my throat, breaking the eye contact. She shifted a little too.

"Does it bother you that Mercedes is using you for your pretty face?" I asked, sounded pretty pathetic so I chuckled, trying to act as if it was a joke.

I messed up the moment. Should've kissed her.

"No" she said. "If I can't find a man, then at least Mercedes is giving me attention"

She looked at me, chuckled a little and nudged me.

"I don't think you have a problem finding a man"

Definitely should've kissed her.

She shrugged, turned serious again. "Finding love then, most of the men just want to fuck me and brag about it"

Like that Mercedes mechanic.

"Yeah.." I mumbled.

We sat together in silence, but it wasn't awkward. It was a comfortable silence. Didn't have that with many people if I was honest.

"Anyways, it's late" she said, jumped off my car. "Can you bring me back?"

"Sure, yeah"

She sat down in the car, immediately looked outside.

"Is there something wrong?" I asked, siting down in the driver's seat.

"Could it be so hard?" She sighed, leaning back in the passenger seat of the car.

I looked over at her, furrowing my eyebrows slightly. "Could what be so hard?"

"To love me" she shrugged her shoulders. "Could it really be so hard to love somebody like me?"

I was biting the inside of my left cheek, closed my eyes for a second. I hoped it would stop me from saying something I would regret.

I leaned over to start my car, gripped my steering wheel, and sighed a little.

"Perhaps"
