SEBASTIAN paced the length of his living room, his phone in hand. He had been thinking about asking Inés to join him for the German Grand Prix, but he knew it was a big step. Finally, he gathered the courage and called her.

"Hey,engel" he said when she picked up. Inés smiled from the other side of the world she twirled her hair.

"Hey, Seb. I miss you." she smiles hearing him sigh, "I miss you too, I feel like Silverstone was ages ago." she laughs softly.

There was a pause, "I wanted to ask you if you...wanted to come to the German grand prix?" he asks he gnaws on his lips nervously.

There was another pause on the other end of the line before she replied. "Seb, that sounds amazing, but are you sure? I don't want to intrude on your home race."

Sebastian smiled, even though she couldn't see it. "You wouldn't be intruding at all. I want you there. It would mean a lot to me."

Inés hesitated, then sighed softly. "Okay, I'd love to come. Thank you for inviting me."

"Great," he said, relief evident in his voice. "I can't wait to show you around Germany."

A few days before the race, Inés arrived at the airport. Sebastian sat nervously checking his phone, waiting for her call. When he saw her, his face lit up. She looked effortlessly beautiful in jeans and a babydoll blouse, her Prada sunglasses perched on her head.

She smiled back at him, running into his arms as he opened them. He placed a kiss on her forehead, and she pulled back, leaning up to kiss his lips. He felt himself smile into the kiss before pulling away.

"I missed you," he said, his thumbs rubbing circles on her hips.

"Me too," she replied.

He grabbed her luggage and bag, walking towards his Ferrari. He opened the door for her and put her luggage in the trunk.

They arrived at Langeoog, a small German island that was a haven of tranquility. Sebastian had chosen this place for their escape, wanting to share a piece of his childhood with Inés.

They arrived at a quaint seaside cottage, the sound of waves gently lapping against the shore creating a soothing backdrop. Inés took a deep breath, feeling the tension of their busy lives melt away.

"This place is beautiful, Seb," she said, looking around with wide eyes.

Sebastian smiled, taking her hand. "I'm glad you like it. I used to come here with my family during the summer. It's always been a special place for me."

They spent the day exploring the island, riding bikes along sandy paths, and enjoying the simple pleasures of nature.

Sebastian sat in the sand, watching the waves crash while waiting for Inés to come out of the house. He closed his eyes, feeling the warm sun on his face.

Inés approached him, watching as he sat back, perched on his elbows with his head tilted back and his soft lips parted. Sensing her presence, he opened his eyes and smiled at her, his gaze traveling down her body.

She sat beside him, and they shared a moment of silent understanding, the world around them fading away.

The two went for a swim, both of them not taking their eyes off of each other.
