*You're waiting for Max to go to the challenge of Sky Sports. You haven't talked to him since he left after the message of George*

*Even though the message of George was really sweet, it couldn't cheer you up after seeing the face of Max*

*He really wants to keep you away from George*

Erin: Hey, are you okay?

*You look at Erin, who's sitting next to you at the table in the restaurant of Red Bull*

Y/n: Yeah, I'm okay. Just overthinking, like always

Erin: Ah, I understand... How about grabbing lunch together after the challenge? I know a perfect place. It will take you away from your thoughts

*You smile*

Y/n: I would love that Erin. Thank you!

*Then Max walks up to you two*

Max: Ready to go?

Erin: Yes, let's go

*You and Erin get up from your chairs and the three of you walk to the front door*

*Max stays a little bit behind you*

Y/n: Is it far away from here, Erin?

Erin: No, not at all. Theys set up a little thing next to the McLaren motorhome.

Y/n: Ah, perfect

*You walk a bit slower, but Max doesn't catch up with you. He keeps a little distance*

*Are you kidding?*

*You stand still, turn around and wait until he's in front of you*

Y/n: Are we really going to do this Max?

Max: What are you talking about?

Y/n: This

*You gesture with your hand at the distance between him and you*

Y/n: Did one message of George create this distance between us?

*Erin notices you two are standing still, so she does the same, but gives you and Max some privacy*

Y/n: I don't like this Max. I know you don't agree with it at all, but does it really have to affect our relationship?

Max: I know... Just give me time to take it all in, okay?

Y/n: As long as you're not walking away from me, I'm fine with it. We already lost each other once Max. I don't want to create that gap between us again

Max: Me neither...

Y/n: Then are we good again? Can we play that game of Sky Sports all happy and cheerful?

*Max smiles*

Max: Well, if you're ready to lose again, then yes. You always lose in games

Y/n: Oh, I do not!

Max: Oh sure you do! You remember Monopoly when we were younger? You always lost

Y/n: But that's only because you were lucky, my friend! You somehow always ended up on the pricy lanes

*You two walk further, chatting about the games you played when you were younger*

*Catching up on some memories*

*And deep down, you light up. You never want to lose this connection with your brother again*

*Liam once took it away, but you know no one should get in between again*

*Family should be priority number one* 

*After all, they're always the ones who have your back*

*No matter what happened...*
