months ago, george and alexandra met at an event and got off to a rough start. the pair become neighbours, hating each other even more.
what happens when george sees a caring side to alexandra he's never seen before. will their mutual hatred return...
it was 7pm later that night, and i was sat cuddling with archie whilst waiting for amara to arrive. i knew it would be any second now because she had parked up not to long ago.
knock knock
perfect timing. i get up and go over to the door, a smile on my face already.
"amara! come in." i say, opening the door for my best friend.
"oh i always forget how much i love your apartment." she says as i shut the door behind her.
"thank you, pizza or sushi? i'm starving."
"sushi definitely." amara says confidently.
" i'll order it now, choose a movie." i say, picking up my phone from the coffee table.
"romance?" she asks, turning the tv on.
"is that question needed?" i say as a joke.
"of course not, ill find one." she says, as archie runs up to her.
i smile to myself before sitting down beside them and ordering the food. once it was ordered, i put my phone on do not disturb and start to play with archie with amara.
"i'm going to put him in his cage, he's getting too excited." i say, picking up my dog and taking him away.
20 minutes later, i was sat chatting to amara about anything and everything. our food should be arriving any minute and we had chosen to watch titanic. it's a classic, but we always end up crying together by the end.
"that should be the food, i'll get it." i say after hearing a knock on the door.
"ms martinez?" the delivery person says.
"yes, thank you." i say, smiling politely before shutting the door and heading back to amara.
"should i start the movie now?" she asks and i nod.
once we had finished the movie, we decide to go out of the balcony. it was an amazing view of monte carlo, and even better at night. the city lit up.
"i am so jealous of your apartment." amara says, as we sit cross legged in front of the railing,
"you should have gotten the apartment next door when you had the chance. then i wouldn't have to live so close to the dickhead next door." i say, signalling towards george's apartment.
i turn around after hearing a snigger from behind us and see george standing in his doorway shirtless. why is he always shirtless?
i scoff and give him the middle finger before ignoring him and going back to talking to amara.
"guess whose coming next week." i say.
"sofia?" she says excitedly.
"yep! she's staying with me for a week."
"i love sofia, she is just the best."
"wow, you prefer my sister to me?" i say as a joke.
"no, of course not." amara says after yawning.
"okay, i think it's time to go to bed." i say, laughing gently.
"yeah." amara replies, getting up and walking back into the apartment.
the next morning, i wake up to the sunlight seeping into my room through the window. i sit up before heading to the bathroom. i go to the toilet and brush my teeth, feeling a little bit more refreshed.
5 minutes later i head back into my bedroom to see amara slowly waking up.
"good morning sleepyhead." i say, fully opening the curtains to let more natural light into the room.
"what time is it?" she asks, sitting up.
"10am, i only woke up a few minutes ago though."
"ah right. so what do you have today?" she asks as i sit down on the bed beside her.
"just amother event tonight."
"ooh, who with?"
"puma, it's a mercedes thing really."
"oh, so you know who is gonna be there."
"yes, but i'll just try to stay away."
"is it on a yacht?"
"no actually, it's a dinner thing."
"surprising, what are you gonna wear?"
"i'll show you." i say excitedly, heading over to my wardrobe to get out the dress i had chosen.
"your going to look stunning in that. send me photos later?"
"of course."
"shall we make breakfast? i've got some ripe avocados so we could do avocado toast?"
"yes! avocado toast is my true love." she says dramatically, making me laugh a little.
10 minutes later, we were sat on the floor eating avocado toast and gossiping. we love to gossip.
"i should get ready to go soon, im going out on a date that i need to get ready for." amara says, winking at me.
"yes! i forgot about that. well, i'll call you tomorrow and we can talk about it?"
"and you can tell me all about mr russell."
"god no."
"you love him really."
"i don't!"
"sure you don't. but you haven't shown me what your wearing tomorrow at the paddock, or for the race day!" amara says as we hear loud cars driving below. i guess practice had already started.
"well it's a surprise that's why." i say.
"urgh okay."
45 minutes later, i was saying goodbye to amara before getting ready for a pilates class i had booked. it was going to be a pain to get there due to the action on track, but i had planned out my journey already.
i put on a simple outfit to travel in, and a workout set to put on when i get there.
i love pilates, it really clears my mind. which i really need right now. george is just really getting on my nerves.
2 hours later i get home and make myself a salad to eat as i was so hungry. i let archie out of his cage and play with him for a little before putting free practice 2 on the tv. i know i could watch it off my balcony, but i just wanted to stay inside for now.
once it was finished and george was the fastest, it was already 3pm so i had to get ready for the event tonight. i already knew george would brag to me about his fastest lap if he saw me tonight.
anyway, forget about george. it's time to get ready.
