angel's journey to formula 1 is almost completed, but it has been anything but easy. being the only girl in formula 2 is hard, especially when she is facing many personal challenges.
what is going to happen when she finds herself gravitating towards...
it was later on in the evening, and ollie was watching me get ready whilst singing along to the music i had playing because i wouldn't sing for him.
to be fair i was trying to curl my hair without burning myself, and ollie was having more then enough fun singing with one of my hairbrushes as a microphone. i wish i could have recorded it.
"you should be a singer with that voice." i say, after he had finished singing "paper rings" by taylor swift.
"oh, i know. you and me could be a duet." he says.
"we would be world famous. driver by day, musician at night." i say, whilst turning off my curler.
"if i get to hear you sing then yes, always."
"why do you like me singing so much." i say, smiling slightly.
"because your the best i've ever heard." he replies.
"that cute, but no." i say, patting his head gently before grabbing my outfit and making my way to the bathroom to change.

i walk back out and see ollie sat in the same place as before scrolling through his phone. i sit back down beside him to start on my makeup.
"where are you going with your parents?" ollie asks.
"i'm not sure, they didn't tell me but just for food."
"well i'm sure your going to enjoy it."
"yes, it will be nice to be together as a family again."
"how are you feeling about the race tomorrow?"
"i'm confident i can win, if i don't crash again."
"you won't, it wasn't even your fault."
"i know, but still. i could do."
"you won't okay? believe in yourself."
"i do want to win tomorrow, i really do."
"and you can win tomorrow, your certainly good enough."
"thank you ollie. very motivating."
"they do say motivation is my middle name."
"i thought it was james."
"yes well it goes ollie james motivating bearman." he replies.
"of course it does."
10 minutes later i was done with my makeup, but i still had a little while before i had to go.
"i have a question..." ollie says.
"ask away ollie james motivating bearman." i say, and i couldn't help but laugh, ollie laughing too.
"will you please sing for me angelina guilia antonelli."
"wow, are we using full names now?" i say.
"no, but please?"
"... okay okay sure." i say, smiling at him with my dimples showing.
i think for a little while, before deciding on "stay" by rihanna.
"all along it was a fever a cold sweat, hot headed believer i threw my hands in the air, and said, "show me something" he aaid, "if you dare come a little closer"
round and around and around and around we go oh, now tell me, now tell me, now tell me you know
not really sure how to feel about it something in the way you move makes me feel like i can't live without you it takes me all the way i want you to stay...
it's not much of a life your living it's not just something you take, it's given
round and around and around and around we go oh, now tell me, now tell me, now tell me you know
not really sure how to feel about it something in the way you move makes me feel like i can't live without you it takes me all the way and i want you to stay
ooh, the reason i hold on ooh cos i need this hole gone well, funny your the broke one but im the only one who needed saving cause when you never see the light it's hard to know which one of us is caving
not really sure how to feel about it something in the way you move makes me feel like i can't live without you it takes me all the way i want you to stay stay i want you to stay ooh"
i finish the song and look back at ollie who had the biggest look of awe on his face.
"i love it more and more everytime." he says, holding my hand and stroking it gently with his thumb.
"thanks." i say nervously. why am i nervous?
"when are you leaving?" he asks as there is a knock on my door.
"now." i say, slipping my hand out of his and picking up my bag.
"i'll see you tomorrow?" i say.
"or tonight?" he says.
"but if it gets too late, go to sleep." i say.
"okay i will, have fun." he says.
i say goodbye and head to open the door. i open it to see mom, dad and kimi waiting.
(italian)
"sorry i took so long, i couldn't find my phone." i say, they didn't need to know about ollie for a while.
"don't worry honey, shall we go now?" mom says, and we all agree.
me and kimi walk a little slower behind them after coming out of the elevator.
"couldn't find your phone hm?" he whispers in my ear and i hit him on the arm with my bag.
"shut up!" i whisper back.
"are you telling them?" he asks.
"i will eventually." i say.
"promise? they already love him."
"i promise, i just want to wait a week or two first."
"so is he not coming to your graduation party?" kimi says.
"no he is, but they already know we are friends." i say.
"lina.."
"i'll tell them before graduation okay?"
"perfect." he says as we sit down in the back of a taxi. me and kimi were travelling in a different taxi as we didn't all want to squish into one taxi.
