Downfall

27.

Lando's POV

"For fuck's sake" I threw my phone away, one crack more wouldn't matter anyways.

"What now?" Max Fewtrell sighed, he was kinda used to me complaining about stuff lately.

"I have to go to LA" I mumbled, more to myself than to him. "What are you on about? We have to go to Las Vegas"

"Can you please go alone and keep them busy until I am there?" I said as I grabbed my suitcase.

We had to pack anyways, we were in Brazil now, but the next race was in Las Vegas.
A pretty big race, but I had to do something more important.

I saw her ex's picture, I had to go to her. I couldn't believe she was this stupid. How could she go back to her ex?

The person who tried to ruin her life and career.

Why did she want to be with him and not with me?

But what bothered me the most was that Harry allowed her to do this?
Why wasn't he telling her how stupid she was? She always listened to him.

I texted her so many times, but she didn't answer. Not once.

We agreed on having sex whenever we were close to each other, she came up with that. I didn't exactly want that.

I wanted way more.

I wished I explained everything, or that I fought for her harder than I did.
I messed her up more than she already was. I realized that now.

I realized the FIA fucked me over as well. Asked me to dump her when her tape came out.
Begged me to take her back now.

They probably realized how big she actually was. A little sex tape wasn't gonna ruin her career.

It made her even bigger.

But it also made her a bigger mess.

So I did what I had to do and flew to LA. Daisy didn't answer me, but Harry sure did.
He sounded happy to hear me. As if he was desperate himself.

So hours later, I was standing in front of a huge house. Daisy's house.

I've never been to her house, didn't know what to expect - didn't know what I was about to walk in to.

Harry opened the door when I rang the doorbell.

"Sorry to disappoint you, I know I'm not as hot as Daisy" he chuckled. He probably saw how my face dropped as soon as I saw him.

"Just expected a extremely beautiful girl, you know" I laughed. "Isn't she home?"

"Not yet, she's doing a photoshoot I think" he gestured to follow him inside. The only thing I could do was look around this insane place.

It was absolutely stunning here. I couldn't believe I was walking in Daisy's house.

Harry gave me a quick tour around her kitchen, living room, movie room, her spa area and last but not least, her garden.

"Damn" I said as I looked around. It wasn't too big, it was more cosy than anything else. She decorated it with fairy lights all over the place. Must be pretty romantic at night. "Can someone pinch me?"

"I would gladly punch you" Harry said as he stood next to me.

I turned my head to him, raised my eyebrow. "You're something else mate"

"So what kind of Daisy should I be preparing for?" I asked.

"A very broken one, but she will pretend she's fine, she will also try and have sex with you because you're looking absolutely handsome"

I chuckled at that. Harry was definitely something else. I guess that's why Daisy and him were best friends.

"But please don't have sex with her"

I narrowed my eyes. "Why not?"

Not that I wanted to have sex with her now, that's not why I flew over.
But I wondered what he meant by that.

Daisy and I had sex a couple of times now and I guess it was fine?

"Because she's..-" he stopped talking and looked around. "Is not herself lately"

I nodded. Kinda noticed that already. So she probably never enjoyed it.

Made me kinda sad.

I had to fix this, I had to make her realize she was the highlight of my day even if we were pretending to date.

If I was honest, I was actually never pretending at all.
