it was no secret the chemistry between you and Maverick, and although it was very noticeable inside the paddock, it was much more fun to see the interactions you had in those moments when work didn't force you to interact with each other.

one of these times was at a party to which you both had been invited by different riders, and although neither of you knew the other was there, it seemed part of fate that the other was the first person you each interacted with, for as soon as you went to the bar to get your drink, by pure instinct you gently moved the guy who was in your way and who was talking to someone else.

you could have sworn that you quickly moved your hands away from the stranger but as soon as you finished ordering a voice brought you out of your thoughts “not that I'm not enjoying it, but could you move your hands?” the Catalan asked with a small smile turning around a bit as he had already recognized your voice.
