It was already 1:30 am when I arrived at Lando's apartment.
He stayed awake to cuddle me. Something I didn't expect.So we watched a movie together and he pulled me in his arms.
We cuddled, talked, touched each other.It was such an amazing night.
He wouldn't do that if he was a fuckboy, right?
He wouldn't bother with this if he just wanted to play around.
Right?
Why was I trying to convince myself so much.
"My season will start again pretty soon" Lando mumbled as we were having breakfast the next day.
Or lunch, because we woke up pretty late.
I guess this was his way of telling me it was over between us.
It was like vacation fling, he probably wanted to concentrate on his racing now.I kinda expected that nonetheless.
"Okay" I nodded. "It was fun while it lasted, I guess"
He tilted his head. "What do you mean by that?"
"Wait? What did you mean then?" I frowned.
"I was just telling you, maybe you wanted to go with me?" He sighed. "But I guess you want to stop it?"
"No no, I-I just thought you wanted to stop this"
I should really stop thinking that he was a player, a big red flag.
I was assuming things that probably weren't true.I had to give him the benefit of the doubt.
"I don't, I am serious about you Francesca"
Why was I doubting him so much? He never did anything to make me think he wasn't serious.
He never did something wrong.He wasn't a red flag, he was green, very green.
——————————-
I walked in my apartment after spending almost the entire day with Lando.
I expected that Sav would be here, she was always in my apartment even though she owned a much bigger place.
"Damn, I almost wanted to call the police" she said as she looked up. She was laying on the couch, watching tv.
She definitely wasn't concerned.
"Where were you all day?" She asked. She was just nosy, but she wasn't genuinely interested.
But it was time that I was finally honest to her. I had to tell her about Lando.
He hated every time she touched him and he hated how he had to pretend that he liked her.
And honestly, I wanted her to stay away from him too."I was with someone" I said as I walked to the couch and sat down next to her. "Someone I am starting to like"
"Let me guess" she mumbled. "Jordan?"
"Uh-no it's not Jordan"
"Chase?"
"No, also not him"
She frowned, finally looked at me. "Who is it then?"
"So I don't want you to get mad, I never expected to like him or the other way around" I was buying time, she was gonna be mad, so mad.
"Okay..."
"It's Lando" I said quickly.
Her face dropped, her teeth clenched against each other and then she just started laughing, loud, annoyingly.
"He's just playing with you, he doesn't actually like you" she continued laughing. "You are so naive, you actually believe he likes you"
"He does though" I rolled my eyes. "And I didn't even need to send him nudes"
She scoffed. "You're such a backstabbing bitch"
"It's not like I planned this, we just fell for each other"
"And you knew I liked him" she said as she got up, grabbed her stuff and looked down at me. "You're a terrible friend and you're gonna regret this so much"
She stormed out, slammed the door behind her.
That could've gone better, but I kinda expected this. I definitely expected this.
Hopefully Lando wouldn't turn out to be a red flag, hopefully he was honest with me, about us.
