The anatomy of a champion • I •

14.

"That driver...is Max ...the Max from the festival we went to before my college degree" Diana's face turned into a surprised and shocked one like she put the last piece of a puzzle and started to see the whole image of it.
"Oh my fucking God, i completely forgot about him, you didnt even mention him in past years" and that was true, my focus wasnt on the things from the past, especially on the random guys i had hooked up with. I was too invested on my job and of course after that, on my relationship with Aron.

"Yeah...i never thought i would see him again, i didn't even know what was his last name or where was he from. But seeing his face on the screen brought up some memories and i just felt overwhelmed " flashbacks came through my mind from that night. I remembered the kisses, the great sex, those orgasm, goosebumps appearing all over my body.
That 3 question game that we had. Now my mind was begining to put some pieces into the puzzle and all made sense. He told me something about being a champion, or he wanted to become one, there were some blured images on that memory because I was almost asleep.

"Call it what you want, but i think this is a clear sign! Just imagine, you just got an offer to work where he is. If this is not fate, i don't know what else to say" I snorted hearing what Diana just said. This was real life, this wasn't a teenager romantic movie in which two people meet after some years and suddenly they fell in love and live happily ever after. More of that, life treated him nicely, he was a famous formula 1 driver, probably surrounded by plenty of  beautiful woman, models, but yeah as soon as he will see me, he'll drop everything and confesses his love for me. This tought made me laugh a little bit and Diana looked at me with wonder.

"Yeah sure, he was the man of my dreams and i've missed the train back in the days but now suddenly the same train had arrived on the station after 5 years. Could this be train of love that will knock my world upside down ?" Of course my voice tone was sarcastic making Diana roll her eyes "mock me if you want, but i stand by my opinion. Leaving Max aside, even though he's just like the bonus of this situation, you should still accept the job. It's a great oportunity for you, maybe not as rewarding as the one from an actual hospital but from time to time, is a good thing to change the enviroment, like i've said before, work&travel kinda thing" diana got up from the chair "Don't stay up too much, tomorrow you have to make a decision, so try to have a good night sleep and clear your head" she went inside the house and probably started to fill Alex's gaps on the whole situation.

Of course that, throughout my life i had to make decisions, but never so spontaneously. My entire life was very calculated and precise and mostly included the steps towards the professional side of life. It was clearly difficult to detach myself from what i had put in place all these years. Maybe at least for once it i could brake this pattern and be brave enough to make a change on the professional area. In fact, i will still practice medicine there, not at the same level, but as long as it is medicine, it was a reassuring thing. The financial part was not to be neglected either, besides the fact that i will be traveling around the world, something I havent done for a long time.

Maybe it was time to somehow combine the useful with the pleasant. And yes... there was also Max. Somehow i wanted to see him again...
I took out my phone and searched his name on google. *Max Verstappen* and just like that, all the information I never knew was just on a click away.

Nowadays he will be turning 25 years old. I quickly did the math and was shocked when I realized that I had slept with a 20-year-old guy.
On his bio i reed that he is half Dutch and half Belgian and he is racing for the Redbull team. Just like in the cartoons a light bulb flickered over my head, remembering all those marketing stuff that I saw in his room that night. Finally, I couldn't help to take a look at his love life too. There were some pictures of the girls he had been dated and like any woman I scrunched up my nose a little.

Curently no status about him being in a relationship or maybe he is keeping his private life to himself. I scrolled through some of his pictures. God, he looked so damn good in that racing suit with his hair all sweaty....
Okay, my mind was going in some places that for now it will be better to stay away from my thoughts.
But yes, i could admit that he was more mature, more manly than the boy I remembered. Those pictures of him hit differently and a sudden sensation of arousal ran into my body. Exactly what i didn't want since i have to keep my mind clear for a proper decision.
I felt asleep with the phone in my hands and with a last thought on my mind.
I will accept the job offer.
