LUCY POV

I went back to my room, my heart was pounding, I was crying, I didn't know what to think. I threw myself on the bed, only to land in something hard, I looked under me, it was books wrapped in a basket with hot chocolate, some comfy clothes and a blanket. I was confused until I heard a knock on the door, I opened it and it was Lando.

I know he saw how puffy my eyes were, "Hey Moo, what's wrong?" I didn't want to tell him, I didn't want to hurt him. "Nothing, just wondering where this came from." Lando looked at it, he saw a note and checked it. "It's from George. I can tell by the hand writing." "Oh."

He furrowed his brows, "Are these tears to do with George?" I looked at the basket, it was all the books on my list, but how did he manage to get them? He was with us all day, unless he was messaging someone to drop them off. But why would he do that, after what he's just said? He probably, just feels guilty for sleeping with me.

I nodded at Lando, he hugged me, "Please talk to need about it." He begged, "I don't want to hurt you." Now I was crying. "It's hurting me to see you like this." He was looking in my eyes. "Let's sit," he said.

"So...you remember that morning when Max kicked off with me and I went to get a shirt from George's room?" He nodded. "It's because I'd...you know...my arms..." he was looking at me worried. "I was really upset, about the night before, that's when George saw me in the bathroom and why I had his shirt on...sorry getting side tracked. That morning, I was really wound up and I...slept with George..." I looked at him and he just kind of nodded. "I thought he liked me, it was nice to get good attention...but I was wrong...I went to go get my list off him but overheard his conversation." I looked at my hands.

"What conversation Moo?" He looked like he was getting annoyed. "He was on the phone and he said 'I did sleep with her, but it was a mistake, please don't tell her...don't tell Lu." He was looking at me in disbelief. "He did fucking what? He slept with you when you were the most vulnerable, then told someone about it and that it was a mistake?" I nodded while another tear fell. "The prick, what did he say to you?" "Nothing, i ran off and then I landed on the books, then you came in." "Do you want them?" He pointed at them. "Not from him." I shook my head.

"I'll sort these, I'll replace them, you get into your swimwear and we'll go to the pool, just stick with me." He kissed my head and walked out with the basket. He took that so much better than I thought, but I knew it would hurt him. He's so amazing, nothing like the fuck boy I've been told he is.

I got into my bikini, and walked to the pool, the basket George got me, was sat outside his room. I walked to the pool and just stared at it, it was massive. Everyone except George was there, all 4 of them looked at me, eyes wide. Lando climbed out and came to my side, "You okay?" "Yeah, ready for an evening in the pool." I smiled. Max's eyes were all over me. "You look really good." Lando said, as we walked to the edge. "By the way, I told them, Max isn't happy." I couldn't even say what before I felt my feet, cut through the water. I came to the surface just as Lando cannonballed in. "You're such a dick." I laughed.

We decided to play shoulder wrestling, I went on Charles' shoulders, Lando went on Carlos' with Max refereeing. Charles and Carlos were so stay in the water, we heard the door open, we all looked and saw George, "Hey guys, what we playing?" He was beaming. "Nothing, Lando and Lu are wrestling." Max said, but turned away from him. Lando must have been really distracted, he didn't hear Max say go. Me and Charles looked at each other and he walked forwards to Carlos and Lando and we both pushed them. We leant too far, I fell down on Lando and Charles on Carlos.

We came to the surface and all started laughing, I felt an arm round my waist, it was Lando, he was holding me up, probably because I can't reach the bottom. "I'm tired, I'm gonna go sit on the edge." I said. "Here let me help." He carried me bridal style through the water, it was only a couple of feet, to the edge whilst I laughed and sat me on the side. "Thank you Lanny." "No probs babe." He walked back to the guys who were splashing me. "You guys wrestle, I'll be the ref, Max and Lando versus the Ferrari's." Lando got on Max's shoulders and Carlos on Charles. "Go!" They were barely trying, they were all too busy laughing.

I was too busy laughing with them, I didn't notice George sat next to me. "Hey Lu." He said. "Hi" he was taken aback. "Have I done something? Did you not like the basket?" "You tell me George." He just looked at me confused. The boys noticed, Max started walking over with Lando still on his shoulders. "I haven't done anything, but you can get the books from my room if you want, they're all the ones on your list." I just looked at him, was he really that dumb.

"What? So you can sleep with her and regret it again?" I thought it would be Max, but it was Lando. "What?" Then it dawned on him, he went pale. "You heard my call? Lu, you heard it wrong. I.." Lando got out the water. "You, have said enough." Lando held his hand out and I took it.

"We should get an early night, we're going somewhere tomorrow." He kissed my forehead. "Is that all I get?" I asked, he came back over, put his hands around the side of my neck and the back of my head and kissed me. There was so much passion behind it, like he'd been waiting a long time. He pulled away, "Better?" He asked. "I meant information wise, but I'm very happy with the confusion." I smiled. "Oh, well you'll need to pack and wear comfy clothes, it's a long flight." "I don't have any comfy clothes, I barely have any, I only backed for a week in the sun." I shrugged, "Here take mine." He ran to his room and came back out with a hoodie, a t shirt and some joggers. "Thank you, Lanny." "No worries, princess."

I got butterflies as soon as he said it, I turned to my room and packed. The only thing I had for the time was the clock. It was 10pm, I'd best get some sleep.
