The next day, for the first time, we walked in the paddock together.

We still weren't holding hands and I was walking behind him as we walked in, because every photographer wanted a picture of him and Oscar.

Didn't want to ruin those pictures, so I held my distance.

Lando turned around to me, held his hand out. "Come here?"

I walked a bit faster, walked next to him but I only realized too late that he was actually offering his hand.

He wanted to hold my hand and I didn't take it, because I was too dumb to realize.

Awesome.

"You look like an absolute fuckboy today" I joked. But to be fair, he was. He was wearing all black, together with a beanie.

It was hot, why was he wearing a beanie?

"Can you stop calling me that?" He was annoyed. He definitely didn't get that I was making a joke.

"Sorry, I was just joking"

"Okay" he mumbled.

This wasn't how I expected it to be after we just had sex.

We still spend time together in his hospitality before the practice sessions and he took me to the garage when it was time for him to get in his car.

He leaned over and kissed my cheek before he grabbed his helmet and went to his car.

I watched the practice sessions with his trainer, Jon.

He explained that Lando wasn't really pushing so the result didn't really matter.

But I was still so proud, he was so passionate about his job and it was amazing to support him.

I just wish I could be here for the actual race.

—————————————

Lando had to do some interviews after the practice sessions, so I went back to the hospitality alone.

I made my way to the paddock club, to Kelcey. She was awesome, I really enjoyed spending time with her.

It wasn't busy at all, not many people came to watch the practices, so she had time to talk.

"So what's up between Lando and you?" She asked as she leaned on the bar. "We are getting to know each other"

"I see" she nodded. "You look cute together"

"How is he around here?" I asked.

"What do you mean?"

"Does he flirt with a lot of girls?" I asked. I already noticed that he didn't, but he wouldn't be so stupid to do it in front of me.

"No, not at all" she shook her head. "He's very concentrated on his work, on the team"

"Does he take a lot of girls to his races?"

"I-uh-don't think so?" She frowned. "Don't you trust him?"

"I don't know" I sighed. I wanted to trust him so badly, it would be so much easier if I didn't see him kissing so many girls.

It would be so much easier if my friends didn't think he would break my heart.

At this point I was just looking for red flags, even though there weren't any.

I knew I was right to trust him.
