- Meanwhile at the track –

*Alex, Sergio and Max are standing in front of the Red Bull place. The meeting got pushed back half an hour due some power issues, so they took the opportunity to get some fresh air*

Sergio: Oh, it was such a good race. A great car, good circumstances and then the orange army

*Max smiles*

Max: They're intense, but so amazing

Alex: All the orange smoke around the track. I wouldn't be surprised if there are some orange clouds up in the air now

*The guys start laughing*

*Then George walks over to them with a frown on his face*

George: Hey guys

Sergio: Hi George! I'm so sorry for you missing out on your first points...

Alex: Yeah man, you were so close

Max: You'll get them next time

*George nods*

George: I know. It's too bad, but we'll come back stronger as a team

Sergio: Of course you will

George: May I ask you something guys?

Alex: Shoot

George: Has anyone seen Y/n? She didn't reply to me all afternoon and I'm kind of worried

*Alex looks at Max*

Alex: She... Just left to the hotel

George: Hotel...?

*Max sighs*

Max: She's leaving tonight

George: What? Why didn't she let me know she was leaving tonight?

Max: She only told me half an hour ago. It was somewhere a surprise to me too

*George looks at the floor and takes in the words of Max*

George: At what time is her flight?

Max: At eight

*George takes a quick look at his watch*

George: I have to go to her. Now

Max: George

George: I know you told me to only have one conversation with her Max, but something is wrong. I felt the soulmate pain all day long. So please don't tell me to step away right now, because I won't listen. I need to know what's going on. Why she's hurting so much today

*Max swollows and nods. George turns around and wants to leave, but Max stops him*

Max: George?

George: Please say something useful, otherwise you'll only waste my time. Time I could've spend talking to Y/n

Max: Give me one good reason why you should not stay away from Y/n

*George doesn't even need time to think about that question*

George: Because she's the only good thing that happened to me in a long time!

*He takes a step closer to Max*

George: You all know something was wrong with me this past year. And the moment she stepped into my life, everything felt so much brighter again. She made me see the light at the end of my dark tunnel

Sergio: And that only because of one person...

George: Yes, only because of her. I see the end of my tunnel, but now I need to help her to see the end of her tunnel. I can feel she's hurting. And I really need to go to her to help her. To talk to her
