Lando

I just finished with my work and went to Lily's office. When I opened the door, the office was empty. She left...I tried to call her but the line was busy. When I arrived outside of the MTC, I got into my car and drove home. 

I tried to call her again when I arrived but no answer. I started getting worried and almost drove to her house. I calmed myself down and will try to call her again later. I know that something is wrong but hey, it's her life after all. I've known her for 2 days now and we technically aren't anything. Or so I thought...

What if she's not answering her phone because she's scared. Gosh, everything happened so fast, too fast actually. The first day I've properly met her, I have already kissed her. I'm such an idiot. I really like her but she works for me. All of this thinking is killing me...literally.

I decided to go for a long run, to clear my head. I got ready and left at 4pm. On my run, lots of fans have spotted me and asked for autographs. I stopped for them and signed their stuff. "Lando, who was the girl with you?!" I was shocked when one of them asked me that. "Yeah, are you dating?!" Gosh these girls are not normal.                            

I signed all their stuff as fast as possible and gave no reaction on the questions. I started running again and saw paparazzis. Can this run get any worse? I swear I started running even faster, straight into the woods. Here was peaceful and no-one was here. I could finally run alone, with my own thoughts. 

After a while I returned home and got showered. It was currently 6pm and i still haven't heard from Lily. I left her several more calls but it went straight to voicemail. I was really worried now. I tried to call Martin but he wasn't answering as well.                                                                                    

I made myself some dinner around an hour later. I sat down in my living room and turned the TV on. I ate my dinner and went on my socials. Somehow, I found myself typing in Lily's name into my instagram search. I found her profile and scrolled down to see her posts. 

God she's beautiful

God she's beautiful...I really need her. All I can think about is what are we? What does she think of me? How is our relationship ever going to work?

I went to sleep pretty early because Zak needs me at work at 6am. I woke up at 5am and I quickly checked my phone but there was still no call from Lily. I got ready and for once left on time.

When I arrived at MTC, there was almost nobody. I went straight to Zak since I had a meeting with him. We talked about my racing strategy, my form, formula, statistics and all. After my meeting I was on my way to my drivers room, when I saw Lily. She just entered the MTC and I ran to her immediately.

She was crying and probably not sleeping for the whole night. Her eyes were red and puffy for that matter. I led her to my drivers room right after she told me that Chloe moved out. I tried to reassure her that she's not alone, and that if she needs me she can come to me anytime.
