Chapter 4
I just ran, that'sall what came into my mind. Run and get away, far away as possible. I ran through the paddock, past so many people; it was all a blur to me though. All I wanted was to get to get away. I ran through an entry that got me onto the track, my feet seemed to not touch the track at all, it's like I'd flown over it, and before I knew it, I was at the place, I wanted to be at – the beach.
I got to the water'sedge, and just collapsed to my knees. The scene I saw just kept replaying in my head. How could he do this? And to me too, the one he's being with for 4 years. My heart just kept sinking and sinking. Tears started to flood out. I now knew why Seb had being acting strange around me all this time. But never in my wildest dreams did I expect this. For him to find someone else. I shook my head, trying to get rid of the image, but I couldn't. Seeing Seb kissing another woman, with her blonde hair, her curvy figure, that's all I could make out before I ran.
I sat down properly,and brought my knees up to my chest. I put my head forward so my forehead was resting on my knees. I now felt so alone. I sat therewith my thoughts wondering what could happen next in my life. It seemed like forever had gone by. But I didn't care. I didn't even care that it was going cold either as it was getting late in the day.Someone snapped me out of my thoughts by putting their hands on my shoulders. I feared the worse as I turned around to see who it was.My mind and all of my insides sighed with relief as I saw Nico behind me.
No words exchanged between us, they never did when I was upset, so I didn't expect any now. He put his arms around me, and give me a hug. This is all I needed at the minute, was a best friend. It seemed like forever till one of us spoke and broke the silence.
'I'm sorry you had to come and find me Nico' My voice cracked, having not spoke for hours and with me crying.
'It's alright Sofia, everyone is worried so I thought I'd come and look for you'He always was the one to come and find me. Well if Jenson didn't of course.
'I just had to getaway and have some time on my own' I didn't know whether to tell him or not about what I had seen, but then it's as though he was reading my thoughts when he spoke.
'It's Sebastian isn't it?' He asked me. Damn. He knew me way too well. But I couldn't ignore him, not now. I sighed and then answered him.
'How did you guess?'I waited for his reply.
'You've not being looking happy for the last few months, so I just thought you been upset like you are would be something to do with him and the way he's acting.....' He trailed off but hit the nail on the head, but he didn't know why Seb was acting strange, atleast I didn't think he did.
'I suppose your right in that sense, but today just went too far, to be honest Nico, I don't think.... I don't think I can stay with him.....' I trailed off. His face suddenly went very concerned. Now I knew I had to tell him, otherwise he would pester me. I sighed then decided to tell him.
'I......I saw Seb kissing another girl down by the RedBull Motorhome; well should I say more like hiding away by the Motorhome. I don't think I was meant to of seen them but I did and it got to me that much, I just ran to get away from it and came here and cried' I know it shouldn't of,but the words of what happened just slipped off my tongue like it had happened before or something like that. I didn't even feel upset.It was odd, I never felt upset about things like this or never had trouble expressing my troubles or feelings when I was with Nico. I never understood it, and I still don't even now.
More time passed by,but we decided to go back to the paddock before Jenson sent out as earch party because knowing him, he would do, especially with it being nearly midnight. No wonder I was so cold. When we got back to the paddock, I saw Jenson waiting outside the McLaren Motorhome, not looking too pleased even if I must say so myself. It looked like he had been waiting there for sometime. I had a feeling I'd be in trouble, well maybe I would be until I told him why I'd gone missing for so long.
