I may loved Harry with all my heart but I wouldn't hesitate killing him if he took this from me.

"You, son of a bitch!" I yelled. His laughter filled my ears through the headphones. "Son of a bitch? That's my new nickname, my love?" I growled at him as I stepped harder on the gas pedal. "Screw you, Styles. I'm not playing your games. I'm winning this."

And finally, after two laps of him being right next to me, my car was thrown forwards. Within seconds the difference was much bigger.

"Alexa, is it normal for you to go so fast? Won't the car explode or something?" That was Dustin's voice. He had been watching from the pit stop because he wanted to learn. I could see him standing there with the headphones. "That's the whole point. You have to go as fast as possible. You always have to make sure the car is fine though but right now I had to kick this jerk's ass."

One more lap. At least for me. Everyone was way back, even Harry. I would win with a huge difference.

"Alex, I'll put some music," Charlie said from the headphones. Before I had the chance to protest a familiar song filled the whole damn car.

Tu-tu-du-du
Max Verstappen

"Oh come on! Are you fucking serious right now?" Don't get me wrong. I really admired Verstappen but I was driving a fucking McLaren! I was in Lando Norris' team!

Let's shake it to the max
Put your hands up, hands up
Take it to the max
Put your hands up, hands up
Let's go, let's go
Let's go, let's go
Let's go (go, go, go, go)
Max Verstappen

Was it just me, or did he actually put the song louder? Charlie truly had no serious cell on him.

"That turn was a smooth operation!" Charlie exclaimed. I knew for a fact that he had no idea about racing or even decent driving. He just wanted to mention Carlos Sainz, aka Ferrari - at least for this season.

Yes, yes
Oh my God
Woohoo
Yes, Max Verstappen
You are the world champion
The world champion

I was so close! Only seconds separated me.

One.

Two.

Three.

The song got even louder.

And I fucking won!

Everyone's cheers were heard but Charlie's were definitely the loudest and most high-pitched.

Note to myself. Never wear headphones again. Those idiots have no idea how they're supposed to be used.

I got out of the car and immediately I was surrounded by countless people congratulating me. Harry passed the finish line second, only fifteen seconds later. He had managed to catch up.

Yes, I did count them because I wanted to rub it on his face later.

He immediately got out of the car, took off his helmet and ran to me. He trapped my body between his and my car and crashed his lips against mine. I kissed him back, not caring about the people that were around but when things started heating up I reminded myself that my brother was in the crowd.
