"Arthur stop being worried, he would love to see you there." Says Lorenzo, and Arthur looks outside through the car window.

They have landed in the Netherlands, ready to go to the NH hotel where they will be staying, close to the track.

Charles is already there, he had Free practice, of course, and Arthur just finished his school day, and they went immediately to the airport for their flight. Maman went with Charles already a few days back.

"I know." Sighs Arthur. "It's just- Lorenzo I don't want to fuck this up. I don't want Dennis to think that I am stalling him through every race he goes to."

"Drivers most of the time likes when their boyfriends or girlfriends are there with him." Says Lorenzo. "Dennis will like to see you. He told you many times to go with him."

"Yeah." Sighs Arthur and kept looking outside. It was busy in the road, they are stuck in traffic again. They can drive but really slowly, but they are driving so it's not standing still anymore.

He's exhausted, he didn't sleep well the last few days, worried for Dennis his reaction. And now it is getting quite late, so he wants to jump into his bed and sleep.

Dennis and he talked every day with face time. Seeing him made him warm, and now he really knows that Dennis could be the one for him.

"Don't be so worried." Says Lorenzo and lays a hand on Arthur's leg. "You two will have a great weekend together, I'm sure of that."

"It's been a few days, but now I do know that I really like him Lorenzo. And I know that I've said it many times by now. But I've missed him and I didn't expect it to be that much. When I saw he had time to call, it made me so happy, sometimes it was for a few minutes, but every minute was perfect for that moment." Says Arthur. "I thought about him all the time, and I know he will be away a lot. It could be weeks or even months before we will see each other again, but I'm okay if I know he will come back eventually."

"It's part of it, Arthur." Says Lorenzo and Arthur nods.

"And that's okay, I will support him with everything he will do. There will be a career after F2 if F1 isn't an option. If I'm still learning, then maybe I can try to follow where he's going and work in his series."

"Don't let your career be determined by where Dennis drives, but by what you like." Says Lorenzo.

"No, I know that. But I don't know what I want to do next, so I will see where I can end up." Says Arthur.

"How are you holding up?" Asks Ollie and Dennis laughs.

"You act like I can't live with him." Says Dennis.

"You tried to lie to us that nothing happened. We are not stupid. You are on your phone every chance you have, you can't even hang out with us in the evening because you have to talk to him. "No, you are doing amazing Dennis." Says Ollie with a laugh.

"Just ask him to be your boyfriend. Why keep walking around each other." Says Jak.

"I'm not going to do that through the phone!"

"Why not?" Asks Jak.

"Don't tell me you did that with Alice." Says Dennis.

"Of course not. Or not yet." Says Jak.

"Not through the phone Jak!" Says Dennis and the other man laughs.

"Okay, but I'm handling this way better than you." Says Jak.
