The gamble of love

Jo's POV

I finally arrived at the paddock and there were fans everywhere. "We see the way Lando looks at you, is there something going on between you two?" One fan shouted over to me when she saw me, I rolled my eyes at them and just continued walking, ignoring all the comments they were making about Lando. I walk over to Red Bull and met Max there. "Hey Jo" he says smiling at me. "Hey Max" I say. "What's wrong?" He asked. "Nothing, just tired of the comments the fans are making about me and Lando." I tell him. He just laughs, "it doesn't really surprise me that they picked up on something, that boy truly loves you." He says. I just look at him. Has Lando been talking about me? He quickly senses the uncomfortable situation and says "but we all know you are happy with Charles and that's all that matters." and I just nod my head.
I finish my post practice interveiws with Max and Checo, now time for McLaren. I sigh and make my way over to their garage. I see Lando standing at the entrance, it almost looked like he was waiting for me. I just ignored him and walk straight past him over to Oscar. I started the interview with Oscar and then he called Lando over for his interview, I mentally roll my eyes. I don't even want to see his face.
"Please meet me in my driver room when we are finished?" He silently whispered in my ear as he was standing behind me now. I feel shivers run down my body when his breath hit my ear. I cleared my throat and nodded my head just wanting this to be over. We did the interveiw and he was excited for the practice race and quali. Afterwards I followed him to his driver room and he closed the door behind us.

Lando's POV

I really messed up this morning and I needed to talk to Jo and make sure she is not angry with me.
"I'm sorry about earlier." I start the conversatie and she just keeps quiet. "I should not have said what I did, especially infront of Carlos. I was just really mad." I tell her. "It doesn't matter Lando, what's done is done." She says clearly still upset with me. "I should have known better, it's none of my business. If you trust him, that's your call. I was just angry when I saw the photos. I also don't have the right to question you on who you sleep with. I really am sorry for how I handled the situation." I tell her.
"I understand that you were just looking out for me Lan, I just can't cope with the jealousy between you and Charles. I made my choice to forgive him, he forgave me when I kissed you. We are going to talk to Alex together today. I just ask that you respect my decision, please?" She says. I nod my head looking at her, "I will try my best Jo. I am inlove with you so it's really difficult for me to keep my cool around him. But I don't want to lose you, even if we can just be friends. So I will try my best for your sake." I tell her.  I look at her and see tears starting to form in her eyes. "No, don't cry, please. I wasn't trying to upset you." I tell her and she almost runs into my arms hugging me tight. "Your friendship means the world to me Lan, thank you for understanding." She says. I hug her back, "literally anything for you." I say.
We continued talking for a bit and then she left my driver room.

Jo's POV

I was really glad that me and Lando had a chat and that we could sort things out. The drivers are now going for the quali race so I decided that I am going to sit in the Ferrari garage with Rebecca. I take my phone out and scroll through Instagram until the qualifying begins. Me and Rebecca talked abit about everything that has happened. I really am glad that she is here to support me. After qualifying Carlos and Charles joins us in the garage. Charles told me that he is quickly going to take a shower and then we will meet up with Alex. I decided to be a bit naughty and sneak into his driver room. I hear the shower running and I take off my clothes and get in with him, making him jump a bit. I laughed and did not waste any time before smashing my lips against his. We enjoyed the steamy shower together and then I got dressed and snuck back out again.
Soon after I see Charles and Alex walking over to me, Charles smirking at me and I just wink at him, I can see Alex is clearly irretated. "So what is this about?" She asked once they reach me. Rude, I think to myself. "Hallo to you too Alex" I say sarcastically. She just continues to stare at me completely uninterested in the situation. I scoff. "As you know, me and Charles are in a relationship. They hired you to be his PR girlfriend to keep people from finding out about us. So I would like to friendly insist that you back the fuck off my man. You kissing him is completely wrong and you know that!" I tell her and see her and Charles looking at me wide eyed at what I just said. "It was a moment of weakness, I have no excuse. I'm sorry." Is all she said back to me.I roll my eyes. "As long as it does not happen again, it's fine." I tell her and she nods her head. We continued talking for a while and then it was time to leave. Charles leaves with Alex and I go over to Carlos and Rebecca to ride with them back to the hotel.
