me and Max had gone back to Monaco and Max was going to move in with me. or yes not really move in with me but he would sleep with me. My parents had grown to almost love Max after he had shown how much he cared for me. George on the other hand hadn't spent a second with our parents when Max was there so Carmen had to leave us after we all realized he wasn't coming back.
me and max had agreed that we didn't want to go on social media and tell everyone we were a couple, but we had no plans to hide it from anyone either. i had tried to call lando and tell him because i knew george would tell him and i wanted to be the first. Lando hadn't answered when I tried to call him, didn't answer my hundreds of texts.
Max was sitting on the couch and I was standing in the bathroom when there was a knock on the door, knock was an understatement because it was knocking so hard I thought my door would break. I went to the hall and opened the door. outside stood Lando and I could see he was not happy.
"he-"
"what the hell belle"
"What?" it was hard to keep my composure right now.
"is it true what George said. that you and Max are together" the word together almost made Lando puke.
"yes that's true. I've been trying to call you so it would come from me first"
"it's too late for that"
"do you want to come in and talk about it, Max is in here too"
he looked behind me and could see Max's legs on the coffee table. he turned to me and shook his hood before turning and starting to walk to his car. I didn't care that I wasn't wearing shoes. my only thought was to resolve everything with Lando.
"Lando wait" I yelled after him.
"I don't want to hear what you have to say"
"please lando listen to me"
"what do you mean? how you've been sneaking around with max like before after he half killed you. how me and your brother tried to protect you from getting hurt again and you've lied to us like it's the easiest thing in the world "
"that was among the worst things I've done to George but especially to you... I didn't want to fall in love with Max again but I can't control my emotions unfortunately. I appreciate you trying to protect me but I'm actually a grown woman and I want especially you Lando to be okay with who I'm with and Max is one of your best friends"
"neither Max nor you are my friends anymore"
I was on the verge of crying and Lando looked at me with a disgusted expression. he said nothing more after that and unlocked his car and started the car. I hadn't noticed it but my cheeks were now completely wet from my tears. Lando shook his head inside the car before starting to drive away.
