Before you

29.

I spend the entire weekend with Lando. I supported him the entire time and did some work here and there.

Maybe Savannah was right, maybe we could combine our lives.
I worked on my stuff while he did his interviews and such.

It's not that I liked living in hotel rooms, but it seemed as if we had no other choice.

I could deal with that.

We had sex every single night and it was amazing.

He was extremely hot during sex and incredibly sweet afterwards.

Get you a man that can do both.

I did.

After the weekend, we flew back to Monaco, we were both gonna stay here until his next race. I didn't know if I could go with him to the next one, but I was definitely gonna try.

It was already 9pm when we arrived at his apartment, so there was nothing much to do anymore.

I lighted some candles, made it cosy and we laid down to watch a movie together.

Even small things like that were perfect with him.

"Would you like babies in the future?" I asked all of a sudden. I don't even know where it came from, probably because they just had a baby in the movie we were watching.

But it was a normal question to ask if you are dating someone, when you are serious about someone.

"Yes, but I don't know if that's possible for us, with both of our jobs"

"Yeah fair enough, you don't wanna quit racing I guess" I chuckled. "No, and you don't want to quit being a hot CEO, I guess?"

"I would, but then I want a baby and a dog" I laughed.

"Oh damn, both of them?"

"Maybe even two dogs!" I said with a smile, nuzzled my face against his neck and kissed it quickly. "So if you don't count our jobs in, you would like to have babies?"

"Yes I would, but not now"

"Obviously" I shrugged. "But good to know"

I was glad we could be honest about stuff like this. Even if we were only dating for a little while, it was important that we were on the same line about these kind of stuff.

"I am gonna take a shower baby" he yawned, held my face and quickly kissed my forehead. "You wanna join me?"

"Not today" I chuckled. "I am gonna finish this movie and then I'll come to bed"

"I'll see you there then" he laughed as he got up, put his hands on either side of my body, leaned down and kissed me again. "You're beautiful"

This man is gonna be the dead of me.

As he was taking a shower, I went back to watching the movie, only to be disturbed by a knock on the door a few minutes later.

I got up, opened the door and looked at the girl in front of me.

"Is Lando around?" She asked. Didn't even introduce herself or whatever.

"Depends, who are you?" I raised my eyebrow. I had a suspicion though, but hopefully I was wrong about it.

"I am Francesca, I'm an old friend"

I was right.

"Hmm I see" I nodded. "Then no, he isn't home"

She chuckled, a sarcastic little chuckle. I already hated her. "Riley right?"

I didn't answer, didn't react. I didn't need to, because she knew exactly who I was. She saw the pictures, that precisely why she was here.

"Whatever Lando and you have, we went through so much more"

"And that's a good thing?" I raised my eyebrow again.

I could be a good thing, but in her case, it was a terrible thing.

Why did she need to show up just when Lando and I were in a good place? Just when Lando was doing better too?

If he saw her, it would crush him again.

But what I was most scared of, was that he might do exactly what he told me.

That he would take her back.
