You bit your nails, stamped your feet on the floor and tried to look anywhere else other than Lando. It was killing you. It was a bad idea to go to that pool party, all the girls in short bikinis, all more attractive, while you were hiding behind your beach cover-up.

Lando was flirting with the seventh girl of the night, the seventh. That horrible feeling remained in your chest, you loved Lando, perhaps for longer than you should have. You and Norris met in elementary school and became best friends, then he went into the racing world and you slowly and gradually drifted apart, but you were still friends, a friendship like yours would never end.

The girl laughed, running her hand over his chest and you wanted to die, you hated the fear of rejection, you hated that you couldn't express your feelings to Lando the way you should.

Pietra, your friend, knew about the situation, so as soon as she noticed your discouraged face, she intervened, running her hand through your hair, getting your attention.

“Don’t stare, try to have fun, Keegan seems to like you, he’s smiling at you” she said trying to cheer you up.
