F1 Dialogue One Shots

#61 - Sebastian Vettel

Requested by SABotage26

#61 - You know, it hurt when I realized that you're not in love with me. But nothing can compare to the pain I felt when I saw you fall in love with her.

You make your way through the paddock, on your way to your team's garage. As usual, it's very busy in the garage, but you love it. You don't even really have to be here as your job isn't on the racing side of the team. You're a press officer. More specifically, Sebastian's press officer. You have been for a few years and you absolutely love your job.

But there's one problem. Well, normally you wouldn't call falling in love a problem, but as you fell in love with Sebastian, it is a problem. Especially since he clearly isn't in love with you. Realizing that hurt, but you learned to live with it. It's probably a bad idea anyway, dating someone you work with so closely. 

"Hey Y/N," one of the mechanics greets you as you make your way to the back of the garage.

"Hey," you reply, not really paying attention to who greeted you as your eye fell on something. Or rather someone. Sebastian. But he's not alone. He's laughing at something the girl next to him said. You have seen the girl before, but Sebastian has never introduced her to you. You watch them as they talk to each other and by the way they act around each other you can clearly tell that they're close. Really close.

You turn around and quickly make your way out of the garage, not able to watch anymore. You had accepted that Sebastian would never return your feelings, but seeing him with someone else still hurt, a lot. 

You make your way to the hospitality unit, where it's luckily not that busy. You sit down in the back so you can take a moment to try and process what you just saw and felt.

"Y/N?" you hear a familiar German voice say after a little while, making you look up. As you expected, Sebastian is walking towards you.

"Hey," you softly say as he sits down next to you.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing, just taking a moment for myself."

"Don't lie to me Y/N, you're always in the garage around this time," Sebastian says and you sigh, he knows you too well.

"You're right, but I'd rather not talk about it."

"Y/N, I don't like it when you're sad. Please tell me what's wrong," Sebastian says as he takes your hands. 

"I don't want to ruin things."

"Ruin things? What could be on your mind that would ruin things?"

"You have no idea," you say as you look down. Sebastian puts his fingers under your chin and makes you look at him.

"Please, Y/N, tell me."

"I saw you."

"Saw me?" Sebastian asks confused, luckily understanding you don't mean actually seeing him.

"With her."

"I don't know what you're talking about Y/N."

"In the garage just now. You know, it hurt when I realized that you're not in love with me. But nothing can compare to the pain I felt when I saw you fall in love with her," you say, making Sebastian starts laughing.

"My feelings clearly amuse you," you say annoyed, making Sebastian laugh even harder. 

"No, but it does amuse me that you think my sister is my girlfriend."

"Your sister?" 

"Yes, my sister," Sebastian says, the amusement still obvious on his face. You look down, embarrassed that you jumped to conclusions so quickly. 

"Hey, hey," Sebastian says, making you look at him once again. 

"Don't say anything, I already embarrassed myself enough."

"I think it's cute."

"I was jealous, that's not cute."

"I thought it was cute," Sebastian says before leaning closer to you. Your eyes widen slightly as you realize what's about to happen, but you don't stop him. This is what you want, this is what you've wanted for months.

As Sebastian leans closer to you, you close your eyes and wait to feel his lips touch yours. When that finally happens, it feels as if everything around you slows down. Sebastian's lips slowly move against yours as if he's trying to make sure you also want this. But there's absolutely no doubt in your mind that you want this, so you put your hand on the back of Sebastian's neck and pull him closer to you. Sebastian luckily gets your hint and the kiss intensifies as Sebastian puts both his hands on your cheeks to make sure you don't pull away anytime soon.

"Wow," you whisper when you have to pull away for air.

"I hope you understand now."

"Understand what?" 

"That I'm not in love with anyone but you," Sebastian says, making you smile widely. 

"Really?"

"Really. And I want you to be mine."

"There's nothing I'd rather want."

"Good," Sebastian says before he kisses you again. And not for the last time that day.
