"Ryle wants to meet mom and dad" Vanna sighed a little. Once again she wasn't in the Red Bull hospitality, but instead she was eating lunch with me in the Mclaren one.
"Yeah he told me" I nodded. "You're fucked"
But honestly, so was I.
If Lando ever wanted to meet our parents, then I would be in the same position. If he thought Alix's dad was impressive, then he would probably die when he would find out who our parents were.
Or who we were.
"I can't go back Scar" she said as she pushed her plate away.
"You don't have a choice Vanna, they gave you a year and it's almost over"
"Can't you take my place?" She looked at me, a smile on her face to try to convince me. "That's not how it works and you know it"
She sighed even louder now. "They will never accept Ryle, have you seen him?"
Yeah I saw a lot of him lately.
But I understood what she was trying to say. Muscles, a lot of tattoos, always that mischievous smile on his face.
"I think his job might be the biggest problem though" if you could call it a job. Was stealing really a job?
"He doesn't do that anymore" she said.
Pretty sure he still did but okay.
"Please, can you bring Lando with you when Ryle is gonna meet them?" She leaned closer on the table. "Please"
"No, it's way too soon for that" I shook my head. He would freak out if I told him I wanted him to meet my parents.
"C'mon Scar, we did so much for your relationship"
Debatable.
"Ryle went behind his sister's back to help Lando and you"
That was true.
She grabbed my hand and looked at me. "Do it for me please"
"Fine" I sighed. "But if Lando says no then it's no"
She nodded with the biggest smile on her face. She was convinced he would say yes to meeting my parents.
And if I was honest, that's exactly what I thought as well.

"Hey, wait for me?" I half yelled as I ran after Oscar. Did he forget I was his PR manager now?
He looked back at me. "Your Lando's PR manager today"
I frowned. "No, I'm yours"
"He requested you again" he shrugged, held his hands up to tell me that he didn't have anything to do with it.
What was Lando's problem? No one was gonna believe it if I was standing next to him again.
After he supposedly cheated on me with Alix.
So instead of going with Oscar, I waited for Lando in front of the media pen.
He walked up to me, his lips around the straw of his bottle, smirk on his face as he looked at me.
Cocky bastard.
"I now wish I brought some apples with me" he whispered as he stood next to me.
"Why did you ask for me again?"
"Because I am the only guy you can stand next to" he tried to hide his smirk as he nibbled on his straw.
"Are you jealous of Oscar now?"
"I told you many times already" he said as he nodded to follow him. "I am always jealous, Red"
He now did smirk at me, but that soon disappeared as soon as people could see us.
His entire face changed, back to acting, pretending we didn't like each other.
Pretending that we weren't gonna rip each other's clothes off tonight.
I could see that some journalists wanted to ask why I was standing next to him again and if we made up.
But no one actually asked that question.
And there was someone else who also wanted to ask that question.
Alix.
She was staring at us, not paying any attention to the journalist in front of her.
Maybe this wasn't that stupid after all. She was definitely gonna try again way sooner if she thought there was a chance we would make up.
Lando was quite smart, even though I definitely think he just did it because he was jealous.
