NICO'S POV

Race day. Today was what it was all about. All the hard work myself and the team had done, was for those few hours tonight.

Currently I was sitting in the helicopter that was arranged to take me to the Yas Marina circuit. It was pretty incredible seeing the views from up this high. If only Victoria was here to share this too. Victoria. The mere thought of her name made me smile. She'd been texting last night after qualifying and I knew she was going to watch the race. I assumed it was from Kimi's garage, she seemed to be pretty friendly with him now. She assured me it was purely platonic and I had no reason not to believe her, I mean, she had seemed to be getting passed all the shit with me and Amy, besides, if she was having something with Kimi, it would have been right around the paddock by now.

Anyway, I didn't care about anything but the fact that she wanted to talk to me again and that she kissed me. And that kiss was intense. I never thought she would have kissed me so soon, and especially in public. We'd not spoken about it yet, but I wanted to. I wanted to talk to her, but I feared if I was on my own with her I wouldn't let her walk away from me again.

VICTORIA'S POV

I'd gotten to the paddock little after 5pm, the air was cooler and the night was drawing in. It was getting closer to lights out, but first before the festivities began, I met up with Laura for dinner.

"wow look at you!" she beamed at me, making me laugh as she hugged me and looked down at my dress as she pulled away. I playfully swished my dress at her. "I thought I'd dress appropriately" I replied, laughing at my action. I had chosen to wear my white, pale green and orange maxi dress. "I'm actually jealous" she laughed as we sat down at the table. "yeah well I'm just glad their team colours aren't baby pink..." I smirked, knowing it wasn't my colour.

..........

Time was ticking now and we were heading across the paddock to the force India garage. The guys would have finished up their team briefings, track parade and would be now having a warm up with their trainers.

Laura headed across to Paul's quiet room to so their usual routines and I'd decided that I would hang out in the visitors area until Nico had gotten into the car to be taken onto the track. That didn't go to plan...

NICO'S POV

"Miss Hulk!" I heard that familiar name as Mathew my trainer was leaving my room. I frowned, jumping up from the massage couch, catching the door before my trainer closed it.

Sticking my head out, I looked down the hallway and I saw her. She was talking to Steve. Standing there in the hallway to my garage, talking to my chief mechanic. "Ahh there he is, Mathew's done with him" I heard him bellow, causing Victoria to turn around. When she saw me she blushed.

VICTORIA'S POV

I felt my cheeks heat up as I turned around, catching Nico standing looking back at me. "I'll leave you to it miss" Steve winked, leaving me stood there. I smiled at Nico, briefly looking down to my feet then back up to his smiling face. I felt that familiar pull in my stomach, and the next thing I knew, my feet were taking me over to him.

"hi"
Hi"
"are you alright?" he asked me. "Uh huh" I nodded, "are you?" I asked, desperately trying to keep my eyes locked onto his. Did I mention he was shirtless? "yes. Just had my warm up. Now I can relax for five before they need me" he explained, seemingly waiting for some kind of response. "well I won't keep you..." I said, shuffling my purse onto my shoulder. "no please, I would like to talk to you for a few minutes before you leave" he told me, looking at me nervously. I frowned, "where am I going?" I teased him. "Kimi's. Aren't you?" he replied. I shook my head slowly at him, giving him a slight smile. He looked pretty confused, which made me giggle.

"Ahh Vick! Good to have you back!" Talon grinned at me whilst throwing a set of headphones at me. Catching them, I gave him a grin back and turned to Nico, who was looking back at me with the biggest smile I'd seen all week. "would you like to join me?" Nico asked, resting his arm on the door handle to his quiet room. I looked him up and down, taking in those delicious muscles of his. How could I say no to that?!
