When the beautiful girl Olivia Verstappen, crosses paths with the one and only 'Charles Leclerc' after they've both just got out from a long term relationship, they find comfort in each other.. but is the relationship possible to keep a secret for O...
Dammit I forgot how it felt to have a hangover, every sound is ten times louder and my head hurts like shit.. I pushed my duvet to the side and walked to my bathroom where I freshened up a bit, I made a high ponytail and took on some clothes, which was just some black leggings and an oversize hoodie that I took from Max's closet, I guess he wouldn't mind.
"Good Morning sunshine" Pierre said smiling as he was pouring some coffee in a mug. "Good morning, can you pour me a cup too?" "Of course, is Max awake?" he said as he handed me a cup of coffee too, I took some milk and a bit of sugar in it, otherwise it tastes really bad. "Nah, he's a sleepyhead!" I said and laughed.. Pierre and I just talked a bit over our morning coffee, well it's already 11.30 so I don't even think this is called morning coffee though.
"Finally you guys are up!" Max said as he walked in the front door, and closed it behind him. "Wait, where have you been? I thought you were sleeping?!" I was surprised to see him standing there. "Just went for a run". "Dude, don't you just feel a bit hungover" Pierre said, leaning his body against the kitchen island. "Nah, I actually didn't drink that much last night" .. "Jesus Max, how can you go for a run in mid january after being out all night?" I asked while taking the last sip of my coffee, I swear I drink coffee way too fast.. "First of all it's not that cold, second I gotta stay fit for the upcoming season and last again I didn't really drink that much," he said and went to the fridge to grab a bottle of water. "You guys are built differently, I could never go for a run in freezing cold january!" I said and laughed, so did Pierre. "Well we gotta stay fit, Oli" Pierre said and looked at me. Of course they do, in exactly two months they have their first testing in Bahrain, which is gonna be very exciting!
Pierre just left to visit Charles, and Max is doing whatever. I'm sitting at our dining table doing some last minute work. I have to send these beautiful wedding photos to the newlyweds, and then I gotta upload a picture to my instagram. These things are very important things to do, because it's the way I earn my money. I may not be very successful in the photography industry, but I'm slowly working myself up there by being hired for different things. But my instagram is going amazing at the moment, which is great! People are loving my content, which is just pictures of my life. Nothing special, but people seem to love it!

"Max! I'm leaving to get some groceries!" I said as I knocked on his door, he was playing on the computer with some of the other guys. "Yh, see ya Oli!" he shortly said, and then I walked to the door where I jumped in my boots and took a warm jacket on, gotta stay warm in this cold! Then I took the stairs down, I have a little fear of elevators so the stairs are always my first option!
I got to the store and grabbed a few things we needed. Today I have decided to make dinner, which is nothing I do that often. I'm terrible in the kitchen. But one thing I can cook with closed eyes is homemade pizza, so that's what we are having today, and also because I'm hungover and I would die for a pizza with lots of cheese and chorizo! yummy.
"Olivia?" I heard a very familiar voice say, I turned around to take a look, as I could hear it coming from behind me. As I turned around I froze.. "Matt.." I said and my face turned sad. This is the first time in almost two months I have seen him? He looked as good as always, something inside made me angry to see him, but also happy. I mean he was the man I have loved since I was 17 years old, he was my first love and my safe place, until that day he didn't think i was enough for him, the day where he wasn't mature enough to end things with me, the day where he slept with another woman and the day he broke me.. His blonde surfer hair looked amazing, and his perfect green eyes looked into mine, I looked away as I couldn't bear to look into his eyes..
"Do you live here now or what?" he asked while looking at me from bottom to top, his eyes didn't look away from me even once. "Well yeah, I live with Max! It's not like I had another place to go" I said while still not looking at him. "I'm so-" he tried to say, before i interrupted him "Don't I don't want to listen to whatever excuse you have! I gotta go.." I said and walked away. I paid for my groceries, and walked all the way back home. My thoughts are running a thousand miles an hour, thinking about everything.. This is why I don't wanna leave the house, I don't wanna see him!
I just got back home, I got rid of the groceries and then walked to the couch where Max was sitting. "What's wrong?" he said as I sat down, dammit he knows me way too well, I don't feel like sharing this with him, or anyone. I think it's embarrassing, embarrassing that I been with that man for so many freaking years and I was stupid enough not to see that the time i caught him cheating on me wasnt the first time, its embarrassing to be so stupid..
"What? Nothing's wrong Max, why do you always assume somethings wrong?" .. "Olivia, I know you better than anyone else! You haven't been yourself lately!!" he said and looked serious at me. "Of course I haven't, I'm devastated! I thought after last night I was actually doing amazing again, its been 2 months and I was thinking I was alright, but I clearly wasn't when I just saw him at the store.." I said, a little tear rolled down my cheek, I'm too weak.. "You- you saw Matt?!" I nodded.. "Did he say something?" . "Well he was trying to, but I cut him off. I didn't want to listen to him" I tried to say while my voice cracked a bit. He pulled me into a tight hug. "I know it's hard, you did the right thing! But that fucking idiot shouldnt have that much power over you still"..
"It's just hard.. I- i think I want to move away for a bit! I gotta heal completely and I cannot do that when I have the chance to run into him as he also lives here" I said and looked at Max.
"But, where will you go? Back home to the Netherlands?" "I dunno Max, it doesn't really matter where. I can work from wherever, but I just have to go away".. "I understand, let me help you!" he offered. "No, you don't always have to help me. Thanks, but I have to do this on my own!" I said and smiled falsely..

I hope you enjoyed the chapter! I promise I will make longer chapters when we get a little further into the story, but I have to start it somewhere. And I promise that we will soon have more formula one content involved as well, but as i said I'm trying to start the story.
Please don't forget to tell me what you think, and vote!.. - Do you want me to keep adding instagram posts into the story?? Oh and btw, the next chapter will have a flashback from Olivia and Matt's relationship.. :)
