Lando's POV

We pull up next to the house. I can see Max standing next to the road waiting on us. His face is unreadable, showing all emotions at the same time. Until he sees us and his face goes plain.

I'm about to walk out of the car but I'm stopped when max jumps in the car before I even have a chance. He slams the door shut and just looks out of the window.

"What happened?" I ask hoping to get an answer this time.

"nothing, I just want to get home." Max answer with a plain voice. I can't read his face or body movements how much I try to.

Carlos starts driving and max let a sight through his lips.

I keep looking back at max the whole ride trying to see any sign of a feeling but he keeps his plain face on. Only once did I see an emotion flash on his face but couldn't really put my finger on what it was.

" Lando, could you maybe stay in my dorm for the night?" Max ask as we make our way down the hallway.

" of course." I say with a sweet voice, scared of saying the wrong thing.

" Do you want me to get some clothes for you?" Carlos offer walking next to me.

" yeah, thank you that would be nice." I answer and give him a bright smile. I'm dragged away from Carlos when Max takes my arm and pulls me into the dorm.

" I need to speak to you." Max say closing the door the second I'm inside. I look up at him with a surprised face. Where did all that energy come from?

" you and Carlos can't be a thing." He say straight out with no hesitation. I look at him with a confused face, processing what he just said.

"What? Weren't you the one talking about this all being perfect." I ask, wondering what made him change his opinion.

" Yes, I didn't mean it like that. More like don't go to quickly. Take it slow. I don't want you to get hurt." Max say sounding genuine.

" I do really appreciate you carrying for me but you don't need to worry about me. Carlos seems like a nice guy." I say and I do mean it. Carlos has not done anything for me to think differently.

" it's just the football players do have a reputation of being a play boy." Max say I'm about to answer him but is interrupted by Carlos knocking on the door and walking in.

" Hi, I didn't know what you wanted so I brought different clothes to choose between. And I also brought your toothbrush." Carlos say walking in with maybe 6 six different garments.

" thank you. It's perfect." I say taking the clothes from him with a smile. Carlos walk over to the doorway looking at me

" You still up for tomorrow?" Carlos asks.

" yes, of course. Thank you for today." I say referring to everything, helping me at the party, McDonalds and taking the max situation so good.

" always, I'll see you tomorrow." Carlos say before disappearing behind the door. Fuck I already miss his face.

" I know that face." Max say with a smirk on his face " what are you two doing tomorrow?"

" Carlos asked me out on a date." I answer feeling my face heat up.

" just remember what I said, take it slow. Please?" Max say changing his face expression to sad.

" god, max. You get the biggest mood swings when you drink." I say with humor in my voice but max does not change his expression. " yes I'll take it slow, dad. Now let's sleep, I'm tried and need to out sleep my hangover."
