As lita walked out of Horners office she was surprised nobody was giving her funny looks as she felt like steam was stewing from her ears like a cartoon character.

How dare Christian.

Lita didn't understand what max and her relationship had to do with him or the board, he was sticking his nose into something that was none of his business

And he even had the audacity to pull the cars 'it's better than one of yous losing your seat.'

What a joke.

As lita stepped back into the garage it was clear max had already headed out for practise which made the brunette pout slightly since she wanted a hug or she might end up punching someone (Horner) up the face.

Pulling on her race suit and balaclava lita tired to push the whole conversation out of her head

This was Texas and he wasn't going to ruin one of her favourite races.

Slipping into the car and connecting her wheel lita let herself take a moment for a breath

And off she was for practise.
_________________________________

Over the weekend max could tell that something was up with lita after that meeting with Horner but he knew he couldn't press at it

The French girl was the type to ever splurge it all out when whatever was affecting her became to much or she'd shut down and the walls go back up

After not being able to talk to her for weeks it was clear to say max was being careful around her.

Even with the conversation nagging at the back her head, she was able to pull off p3 which to say the least wasn't too bad

Following her 3rd position was lando in second and max of course in first.

After switching in sweat pants and Max's top with 'daddy' on it (which he hadn't realised she'd took) lita made her way back to the hotel to shower and change

It wouldn't be a proper race weekend in the land of cowboys and horses without going to a rodeo club after a long race weekend.

After drying and curling her hair into two pintails lita lazily made her way back into the hotel room with a towel wrapped tightly around her

when she had gotten back after press she had known max already changed since his redbull polo and shorts were laying messily on the ground

Men.

Pulling on a blue and golden bandana like top, white booty shorts with a few threads and white cowboy boots with threads down the side lita quickly made her way down to the lobby to meet lando before they headed off.

As soon as they both stepped in the club they were already hit by the atmosphere off flashing lights, loud music of 'this is the life' and different eye catching colours of outfits and cowboy hats floating around

This really was the life.

Grasping her wrist gently, lando pulled lita through the crowds and towards the bar, they both gave charming smiles at the sight of the drivers walking here and there

Leaning against the bar lita stood on her tip toes so she could try see over the crowd but atlas no use

"What do you want to drink lolly?" The British voice broke her out of her search for her Dutch of a boyfriend as she fell back on her heels

"Uhhh" lita scrunch up her nose as she looked at the list "how about the sour apple bomb?"

"But it looks like something that came from shrek" lando pulled a face as he saw someone beside them receive a very bright green drink

"A little shrek never hurt anyone" lita shrugged as the McLaren driver ordered their drinks

It didn't take long for the time to begin to fly in and before her eyes the clock on her phone struck 11 and there was still no Dutchman in sight

God where was he.

Pulling away from Carmen after spending an hour of dancing with the gorgeous women desire George's pouting about being like a third wheel lita made her way back to the bar

Choosing the apple pie tasting drink that she had already ordered twice, she leaned against the bar waiting boredly

Scrolling on her phone, the brunette suddenly a rough pair of hands place a slap on her butt

Clenching her jaw lita turned on her heeled cowboy boots ready to snap when her eyes met a familiar pair of gorgeous blue eyes

Max.

"Where the hell have you been?" Lita let out a huff as the Dutchman pulled her close and placed a few kisses on her temple

The Dutch was wearing a black t shit with 'anti social club' on the left side of his chest, black jeans and a...cowboy hat?

"Well Lonnie I was getting this beauty" he tipped the cowboy hat causing an amused hat

"Are you serious?" She really couldn't tell if he was joking or not. Knowing him he probably wasn't

"Nope Daniel took me half way across town to get one to fit his cowboy costume so I thought I may aswell get one" the Dutch gave a slightly crook smirk as he leaned down to give her a gift

As lita moved her arms around his neck she suddenly felt something be placed on her head?

Pulling away she furrowed her eyebrows once she realised the brown hat that was once on his messy brown hair and onto hers

He looked down at her with wider pupils as I smug smile began to grace lips.

"Why do you look so smug" lita let out a scoff as he rubbed her waist

"Because sweetheart" he slowly leaned his face down towards her

"Because?" She rolled her eyes slowly growing impatient

"Don't you know the rule?" What the hell was he own about?

"Well darlin' " he leaned his down to her ear, the brunettes face slowly growing a pink blush as she felt his hot breath on her neck

"You were the hat you ride the cowboy."
