Back Together

❤︎︎ Forty-Three ❤︎︎

A week later we were at the Vegas Grand Prix. We were cuddling in bed after having some fun together until I looked at my phone and was in horror. Luisa Oliveira dating a Red Bull mechanic. Fuck. Right. Off.

"Oh fuck no" I said

"What's wrong?"

"your ex girlfriend is dating a Red Bull mechanic and is at the race this weekend"

"I'm sorry, baby... I had no idea she would do something like this"

"we have to see her every single fucking time we're at your races. It's bad enough that sometimes I have to work with her when it comes to modelling. she's basically following us"

"It's not your fault, baby. She's just trying to hurt me"

"how are we gonna cope seeing your ex this weekend...?"

"We'll just have to face it together, okay? I promise you, no matter what happens, we'll be fine"

"she better not go anywhere near you or I will smack her and rip her hair out"

"I think that's a bit extreme, baby... But I appreciate the sentiment"

"you never know what could happen. I'm gonna be prepared"

"Well, if you get too carried away, I'll be there to break it up. Just remember... we're stronger together"

"just hold me at every second of the day unless you're racing"

"Always, baby. I'll never leave your side"

"what if she tries to kiss you...?"

"If she tries to, baby... I'll push her away"

"but what if she gets past you pushing her away...?"

"If she manages to slip past me... well, let's just say I won't be too pleased"

"i was so stupid to think that my mental health was gonna get better from now on. something just had to come and ruin it"

"No, you're not stupid, baby. This is just a setback. We'll get through this together, stronger than ever. You've come a long way in improving your mental health, and no one can take that away from you"

"I'm just so pissed off because this is more than just a setback"

"I know it feels like that now, but trust me when I say we'll find a way through this. You have people who love and support you, and we won't let anything or anyone tear us apart"

"I'm gonna try and make this slightly positive by saying that I was gonna give you this present at the end of the race weekend but you can have it now. it's in my suitcase"

"Really? What is it, baby?"

"You'll see" I said. He went to my suitcase and opened the present. A shirt that said 'Owned By Lexi' on it. I could hear him laugh slightly as he held it up

"Baby, you're unbelievable. This is perfect"

"I've got a matching one too. Mine is a crop top saying 'Owned By Lan'. I figured we could match and wear them tomorrow when we go into the paddock"

"Sounds like a plan, baby. The cute couple in matching shirts causing a stir in the paddock tomorrow"

"it will tell your ex girlfriend to back the fuck off"

"She doesn't scare me, baby. But if it makes you feel better, we can definitely make a statement tomorrow"

"as long as we've got each other..."

"As long as we have each other, nothing and no one can come between us. We'll face whatever comes our way together"
