Daniel pov

As I'm pacing in my drivers room nervous as shit I start overthinking. I haven't been preforming to well and it's starting to take it's toll. I'm a bit scared. I need to do good or else I'll be dropped again like when I was with McLaren. As I continue pacing there's a knock a my door.

"Yea I'm in here, fuck off!" I yell out hoping not to be bothered by reporters.

"Even me?" I hear a familiar voice ask through the door. Catching my attention I run over and open the door to my drivers room.

"Marc?" What was he doing here. I thought he had a race.

"Hola mi amor, ¿cómo te va?"
Hello my love, how is it going?*

Marc smiles at me softly holding a bouquet of light blue roses. I feel myself start to smile again. Somehow Marc always knows what I need. I move aside to let him looking around as I close the door.

"Marky what are you doing here in Vegas?" I question as he hands me my roses. Watching me place them on my coffee table.

"Look, amor I know I haven't been to your races in a while so you wanted to come show my support. Plus I missed you." Marc smiles at me as he starts inching closer.

"Thanks babe I'm really happy to see you. But I thought you said you had-" Marc cuts me off as he gets on his tippy toes to give me a kiss.

"Shhh don't over think Danny, just enjoy the moment." Marc tells me as he gives me another kiss, wrapping his arms around my neck, as I wrap my arms around him waist.

This one lasts longer but it's still sweet and innocent as the first. Once we finally pull away I can't help but look Marc admiring his beautiful smile. Meeting him was one of the best moments of my life.

"Que piensas Danny?" Even though Marc liked to talk to me in Spanish I somehow always managed to understand him.

"Nothing baby just happy your here. And I think we should tell Max." I had been debating on telling Max since Marc and I started dating a two months ago.

"It's up to you Danny, I'm with you, for whatever you decide." Gosh I like Marc so much.

"Thank you baby, you always know what I need." We stay with our arms wrapped around each other not letting go until I get another knock on the door.

Damn it. I look at Marc, giving him a wink I unravel myself from his arms and open the door to see who it was.

"Max what the hell are you doing here mate?" Confused as shit I give Marc a glance.

"Look mate you're one of my best friends and I thought you should be the first to know that Charles and I are exclusive. BUT, I haven't officially asked him to be my boyfriend." I look at Max with my mouth hanging wide open.

"HOLY SHIT THATS GREAT YUPIEEE!!" I yell as I lift him off the ground hugging him.

"Wait holy fuck, hold on I have to tell you something too. I'm seeing some." I pause to let Max take in everything.

"Oh my god, well who the hell is it!" I put Max down and usher him in.

"MARC!?" Now it's Max's turn to be speechless.

"Holla Max. Nice to see you again." Marc gives Max one of his signature smirks as I leave Max's side to stand with Marc. I know Marc could feel some of my anxiety, because he quickly grabs my hand, holding it tight.

"Wow, I am stupid. How could I have not seen it, you guys are so cute!" I feel as a weight is lifted off my shoulders knowing Max is ok with my boyfriend.

"With all the Redbull shit we do together when did you guys get together?" I look at Marc looking for his agreement to tell Max.

"A couple weeks ago." I see the wheels turning in my best friends head.

"A few weeks like 2 or 3 weeks or more?" Max raises his eyebrows.

"More like two month's ago Max." This time Marc answers for me.

"Holy shit." Before we can continue our conversation one of my colleagues comes to get me saying that it was time to head to the garage.

"See you after the race Max, good luck mate!" I tell Max as he leaves to go to his own garage. Leaving me alone with my love.

"Good luck to you to Danny. I know you'll do great out there." Marc gives me one last hug. We walk out to my garage to meet Yuki.

"Marc, Danny!" Yuki calls us both ushering us to him.

"Danny please, please don't be mad. I told Carlos, Lando, and Pierre." I stop walking. How could he. My garage is where I'm supposed to feel safe and sheltered what the fuck.

"It's ok Danny we can deal with this later, after you race. Mi vida, I'm here so you don't have to go through this alone." Marc grabs my arm. Whispering assurances in my ear.

"It's ok man." I'm not mad at Yuki just disappointed because I thought I could trust him. Moving out of sight I quickly get in my gear.

Marc heads off to a different area that way he's not too much in the way of my mechanics.

Lights out and away we go I guess.
