--Evelyn's POV--

I walk into the club pulling the front of my dress down as Kyla laughs at me, "Didn't you just get done ranting about how you're spending too much money on going out?" she asks.

I mock her statement before smiling at the amount of men who are looking at me, "Why do you think my boobs are pushed up so high? I give a man a good night and he buys me drinks. It's an even trade," I tell her as she rolls her eyes saying I am unbelievable.

When we find the guys in the back of the club I raise an eyebrow as Lando's eyes meet my chest before looking up. He sheepishly grins before offering to buy me a drink which has Kyla giggling to herself as Charles puts his arm around her, "The newest it couple," George says raising his drink to congratulate them. Charles smiles even wider as she looks at him. He whispers something in her ear and soon they are both climbing out of the booth to go dance.

"Excited for race week?" I ask looking at everyone at the table. Max shrugs his shoulders as Alex smiles and gets into a conversation about this new detail on their car. When Lando comes back he makes a movement and Alex just says he will talk to me later, before turning back to George, "Very subtle," I whisper as he sits beside me.

"You don't hang out with me anymore so I have to steal you when I can," he says as thank him for the drink, "You look beautiful tonight," He whispers leaning in closer. I put my hand on his chest as he licks his lips.

"I'm warning you now. I am going to dance with other guys tonight and I expect you to respect that and not intervene," I tell him as he scoffs saying he will be the perfect gentleman.

"You mean a lot to me, Eve, I'm not messing this up again," He says. I give him a small smile as I nod my head agreeing.

"You mean a lot to me too Lando. I'm happy we are friends again," I tell him as I turn to Oscar, "Now Papaya boy. Dance?" I ask. Lando looks offended as his teammate nods his head and leaves the table waiting for me, "He doesn't scare off other men," I whisper in his ear as I walk away.

I smile as one of our favorite songs starts playing and I jump around with his hands on my waist. He laughs as I mess with the collar of his shirt and feel another pair of hands on my waist. Oscar takes his cue and backs up letting the new guy take the lead. I send him a thankful wink as he smirks, "Evelyn," I introduce as he looks me up and down.

"Tristan, I haven't been able to look away from you all night," he says making me smile. I put my arms around his neck as we move to the beat, "Do you come here often?" he asks before he drops his head laughing, "That was so corny".

"It was cute and no I don't come here often," I smile as he asks to buy me a drink. This dress is magic. I sit at the bar next to him at the bar and he calls the bartender over. He lets me order for myself and I thank him as the bartender walks away with the man's card, "So, Evelyn...what is the average day for you like?" he asks catching me off guard.

"What happened to what's your favorite color?" I laugh.

"I just hate those questions. You can't get to know someone off their favorite color," he says as I shake my head disagreeing.

"That's so untrue. What's your favorite color?" I ask him.

"Has to be blue," He says as I roll my eyes.

"That's so basic but its a classic," I tell him.

"What's your favorite?" he asks.

"Black and red," I tell him.

"And what did you learn from this?" He asks as the bartender comes over. I take a sip of the drink and lean forward.

"That you like things plain and simple," I tell him as I drop my head in defeat, "Okay fine I need more to make a general judgment about you but it's still a good question," I defend.

"Black and red tells me you like a good time," he says as I grimace, "Okay now that was corny," he says as I happily agree. We continue drinking throughout the night and he's really easy to get along with. I can see myself keeping in touch with him instead of just hooking up and leaving. He orders us two more shots and I shake my head telling him I can't as I hold onto the bar. 

I see Kyla trying to get my attention and she points to the door and Charles. I nod my head and give her a smile as she waves goodnight, "We should go to this other club down the street," he say as I turn to him.

I check my phone and see it's almost 2 am already, "I don't know I might call it a night," I tell him as I push away from the bar. He looks at me confused before pointing to my last shot, "Alright last one, and then I have to go," I reveal.

"The night is still young," he says as his hand lands on my thigh as I move closer sitting back in my seat. It feels wrong...his hand isn't Lando's but I can't think of him that way anymore. I tilt my head back and grimace at the taste of the vodka as he cheers me on. I've lost count of how many drinks we have shared but when I look at my phone to order a car I start to get an idea. I squint my eyes and giggle as I feel his hand on my shoulder keeping me upright on the stool. I grab his arm as he helps me stand up and walk out of the club. A light smirk is on his lips as I babble on about whatever we were talking about prior.
