"Hey..." I am standing in front of Pierre, my heart beating at least a million times per second. "I uh.." He talked my hand and leads me into his own room in the hospitality area. "To be quite honest with you Pierre, I am not in the least sure of the way I feel about you." Pierre's hopeful and reassuring smile drops. My phone buzzes, but I ignore it, for now, I need to get this off my chest before doing anything else. "But perhaps going on a date with you might clear some of the confusion."

"Did you just agree to go on a date with me?!" Pierre asks surprised. He obviously didn't see that coming.

"I just did." He smiles brightly and pulls me in for a hug.

"Monday?" He asks me and I nod. That is all fine with me. We both still be in Monaco and I have plenty of people around me I know if things might get out of hand. My phone buzzes again, but this time multiple times shortly after each other.

"Excuse me." I take my phone out and check my messages.

Stoff❤🏎: Heyy, I am coming to the RB garage right now

Stoff❤🏎: I am here

Stoff❤🏎: Where are you?

Stoff❤🏎: Did you forget we would go for a walk?

Stoff❤🏎: You did, didn't you?

Stoff❤🏎: Maybe another time then...

"Shit," I mumble underneath my breath. "I have to go, I'll see you tomorrow!" I give Pierre a kiss on his cheek and speed out of Pierre's room towards McLaren. Stoffel just walks back into his garage. "Stoffel!" I yell, but he doesn't stop, more precisely, he walks faster and disappears from my sight.

"Jul!" Fernando says when I reach McLaren. "How are you doing? Stoffel already told me you were around, but I didn't get the chance to talk to you yet." Behind Fernando Stoffel leaves the garage, on a bike. He is going home for sure.

"Stoffel told you to distract me didn't he?" I say, my voice soft.

"I don't know what happened Julia, but it seemed like he needed some space, you should give him some." I will give Stoff everything he needs, but can I? Can I give Stoffel space? Can I keep away from him for a little?
