tolerate it-max verstappen

54.

iris's pov: eight months: due date 5-1-25
The beginning of March, I was currently stressing because we have nothing ready. Anything can happen in these next two months and Max's season starts soon. We barley have moved my all of my stuff over to Max's room.

Sitting at the island as I scroll on the computer searching for furniture for the baby's room. Seeing a couple of things, out of the corner of my eye I see Max walking down the hallway with P in his arms. "Have you seen anything you liked love" he asked me as he walked closer to look at some of the items on the computer.

     Showing him a couple of the things before he told me to get them, but before I did I made sure everything matched in the room before purchasing.

    We weren't going to have a shower since the season was going to start up, but we have been receiving packages from everyone. Consisting of clothes for baby girl and some essentials for me and the baby.

      We have also yet to come up with a name, I don't know I just feel so far behind with everything. The baby was about to be born in a month and the room isn't done, we don't have a name, and worse is Max has a race that weekend so I'm worried that he will be gone.

       Getting up to get away from the computer as I walk to the living room where Max and P were at. "I ordered them Max, they are going to deliver it today so please make sure you keep an eye out for them if I don't hear them knock" he chuckled as he opened his arms for me to join them on the couch.

    Slumping down into the couch as P moved over to rub my stomach making me laugh along with Max. My bump has grown a bit more but it's still fairly small for being almost done with my pregnancy.

...
  
     Hearing the doorbell ring realizing I ended up napping with P on the couch. Max was already at the front door letting the people inside with the furniture, they were going to build it, we were going to leave the room white since it's simple but we just needed to get decorations and some more stuff such as diapers but you can go buy them at any point.

Getting up from the couch as they brought in the rocking chair and the box holding the crib then another guy holding the box to build the changing table.

We decided to let them do their job as Max took P and I to the sim room so we could all stream together which would be a first.

He started up the stream and this time on his own not with redline which surprised me a bit but we both were sitting in front of the camera as P plays with toys in the background.

The chat was going crazy asking to see my bump, Max making me stand up to show them, lifting up the shirt I was wearing showing the small bump as he put his hand out to rub my stomach as well making me laugh out. Quickly sitting down getting a bit shy that we were just focused on me being pregnant.

Max and I decided to play a little game together as well, putting an extra headset on that Max had as we decided which game to play. P came up to watch us play as she sat in my lap, wrapping my arms around her small body as my hands connect in the middle with the controller in hand.

Max decided he wanted to play fall guys which, I have never played before but he had Lando hop on stream as well since Lando is pretty good at it.

Starting the game trying to get a hang of it but dying multiple times making Max and I get eliminated multiple times but ultimately getting the hang of it after a couple of rounds.

It was pretty fun but we ended the game at some point and just stayed on stream with Lando. But we soon needed to get off since the guys were done setting up the furniture we just need to rearrange things to our liking.

Thanking them as they left the house before we both made a b line for the room to see the furniture. Getting inside the room as Max compliments the furniture picked out but we decided to move it around a bit.

We came up with a couple of ways we think would work best but ultimately coming up with the crib against the wall next to the window then having the changing table across from the window instead. We put the rocking chair next to the window across from crib and we already had a rug so we set it up in the middle.

We just needed some cute decorations and the room would be complete. I just feel like it's all getting real now with the room being done. Max sitting down in the rocking chair as he looks around the room realizing this is indeed real as well. Walking up to him sitting down on his lap as I leaned into him as well.

"This feels real, we will have a baby soon love" I spoke to him softly before he smiled out as he leant down to kiss my shoulder.

"And I wouldn't rather have anyone else to do this with Ris" he said to me making me smile as I hugged him.

I'm so glad we got over that whole ordeal earlier on in the pregnancy. Because him now makes me fall harder than I already am, him speaking to my stomach kissing it and rubbing it. He is so ready for the baby and so am I. I can't wait to experience motherhood from the beginning. I have gotten it with P which she literally is my little princess but now we are starting from the beginning. The sleepless nights will be worth it.

okay guys sorry the chapters have been short but the now it's going to start to escalate a bit again just smidge! now here's the synopsis to my next book, and the title is  forgave and forgotten  🙈 i'm so excited about it guys

Charles's younger sister Vanessa, hated being compared to him. But if she hated anything more it was definitely Max Verstappen, his ego makes her actually physically nauseous.

Max and Vanessa have known each other since they can remember practically. Her brother and Max were rivals during their karting years, but now him and Vanessa have more battles on the track than her brother and Max do.

Little does Vanessa know Max doesn't actually hate her, he only tries to act tough in front of her just to poke the bear cause he knows she will ALWAYS give a reaction.

Will Vanessa ever learn to forgive him?
