"When are we going to take a break?". Maja huffed as she ran next to Daniel. Daniel had offered to show her around a bit in Milton Keynes. Well, she didn't get to see the centre of the small city, just the nature side as he planned a run for them two through the forest.

"It's a round around the lake, so when we're at the starting point". Daniel grinned, his pace was high, but he was sure she could take it.

Maja rolled her eyes and said nothing back, concentrating on the sound of their footsteps on the asphalt path around the lake. The lake didn't seem to be this big when they parked their bikes at the beginning of the path.

It felt like she was running for hours already, legs starting to hurt slightly. Maja attended yoga classes before she started her job at Red Bull Racing and now she did her yoga exercises every morning, much to the annoyance of Albin who even rolled his eyes as he heard the yoga matt being pulled out of the closet.

"You're doing this every morning?". She asked as they were a few meters further.

"Yep". Daniel answered, looking over her. Her curly hair bounced on her shoulders as it was tied up in a ponytail.

"Can you give me a few seconds?". Maja said as she grabbed an elastic band she had around her wrist. "Why would you need a few seconds to tie your hair up?". Daniel had asked, looking down at her with a frown.

"Well if you think I can get all of this hair into this wrap in no time, I'd like you to try it". She said, handing him the elastic band. Daniel chuckled and took it from her, taking place behind her to get her hair in it.

Okay, he had to admit this was a bit difficult as he didn't dare to pull on her hair too hard. The elastic band got stuck in her hair and she sat down on the ground as he kneeled next to her to get it out of her curly mess.

"I take back what I said earlier". Daniel laughed and let her do it herself.

He got lost in his thoughts and didn't really pay attention to where he was going. "Dan!". Maja shrieked, pulling him with her as two people on cycles came by. Daniel stumbled over his own feet and flopped face down on the grass next to the path.

"Oh shit, you clumsy pancake. Are you okay?". Maja burst into laughter and kneeled at his side. "I'm fine". He groaned, getting rid of the pieces of grass that were on his face. Maja was still laughing as she looked at his face, picking a piece from out of his curls.

"Shall we walk the last bit?". The Swede asked, pulling on his arm to help him up.

"Okay". He nodded and they walked towards the point where they began, their bikes leaning against a tree. "I'd like to take you out for lunch, if you want to of course?". Daniel offered.

Maja shook her head. "Very nice of you, Daniel, but Adrian expects me to be in the factory to work on the nose of the car for Bahrein. I also promised Albin to arrange some tickets for him". She said as she got onto her bike.

Daniel went in front of her at first and then got next to her. "Tickets? F1 tickets?". He asked.

"Mhm, he wanted to come along the next weekend". Maja carefully said. She had sensed that both guys didn't really like each other and she didn't want to talk with Daniel about Albin and also not the other way around.

"I thought he's a busy businessman?". Daniel said, looking over at her face as she was looking forward anyway.

"He is, he found a gap and he told me he wanted to understand what kind of job I have and how much time it takes". Maja said, the undertone in her voice telling him that he shouldn't ask more about it.
