Once in a lifetime

~Talks & blushing~

Y/n's pov
So it's now the next morning and I'm currently throwing on a pair of shorts and a T-shirt not bothering what I look like because I'll be changing for practice soon. Me and Daniel still haven't spoke and I intend to keep it that way until he packs up his childish behaviour. Dad isn't happy with him either so he's in everyone's bad books. I'm broken out of my thoughts when I see a message from my mother.

Good morning darling, good luck with practice today I'll be watching on the tv. I've been speaking with Lisa about getting a job in La and she has managed to get me a 2 week trial to see if I like it. We'll be going on the 25th this month. I hope your exited to be with Chris. Love you son xx

Love you birth giver ❤️

"Y/n" I hear Daniel say behind me as I slip on my shoes. I don't say anything but turn to look at him instead to hear what he has to say. "Look I'm sorry for snapping at you in the changing rooms it was selfish" he mumbles not making eye contact.

"Daniel" I sigh out before continuing. "We've got to drop this shit. It's race weekend and we don't need this at the back of our minds. Let's just fix up and talk about the Lizzie situation after the race is over ok?" I offer wanting to be worry free when out on track to reduce the risk of any accidents.

"Yeah ok" he replies still not meeting my eyes. Well this is awkward. "But I need to tell you this one thing"

When I hear those words I stand from my seated position and turn around to fully face him, a worried feeling now present in my stomach.

"I like her. A lot and it's clear that you do too and this is clearly coming between us but I need you to be clear with me about something" he starts making me nod at him to continue. "Has anything happened between you or has she said anything about wanting to know me better?" He asks making me drop my head. I can't lie to him, I'm better than that.

"She hasn't spoke anything bad on your name Dan but we've both agreed to basically seeing each other. I'm sorry" I saying dropping the bomb on him which I instantly regret when I see the pain in his eyes. This ain't like him at all. He's the one always sleeping around so he clearly likes Lizzie a lot if it's affecting him like this.

"Ouch" he says with his hands on his hips. "I know I have no right to be mad with you so I won't but you have to understand that I'm a bit bummed with the situation" he adds making me nod.

"I understand and like I said I'm sorry but we can't control our feelings" I say as I walk up to him placing my hand on his shoulder. "I'm here for you brother. Always have been and always will be so don't let this get between us ok"

"Mhm" he hums out nodding his head. "Right let's go they're all probably waiting for us in the lobby" he says rushing out of the room as I follow behind.

When I finally catch up to Daniel, I see the whole group and the one person I was looking forward to seeing the most is preoccupied by my brother. Woohoo. As I walk to my dad I see her look at me from the corner of her eye also sending me a smile which I obviously return.

"Something catch your eye son?" Dad says nudging my arm making me shake my head in embarrassment. "Don't be shy I'm your dad I'm good with these things kiddo"

"Well In that case then yeah something has caught my eye but it isn't as simple as I would like it to be" I explain as he listens attentively.

"Well son. Love can sometimes be hard to fight for but if your heart tells you to go for it you go for it okay?" He says nudging my arm again making me giggle and nod. We fall back into another conversation and that's when I see it. Daniel has his hand on her arm. Jealousy floods through my veins so much that I have to tear my eyes away. Even though my eyes aren't on them I can still hear her laugh. Well this sucks.

"Okay come on guys. Taxi is here" dad announces making me sigh in relief as we all leave the hotel. After a couple seconds of walking I feel a presence beside me.

"Hey you" Lizzie says looking up at me with that cute smile of hers.

"Hey" I say back with a smile as I continue to admire her beauty. "Sleep well?"

"Really good actually. I usually don't do too well when away from home but I'm really enjoying myself and that might have something to do with a certain person" she teases as she links her arm around mine whilst we continue to walk.

"Oh really. Tell me more about this person?" I teasingly making her giggle.

"Well where do I even start. He's much taller than me, has these amazing baby blue eyes, he drives race cars for a living and lets not forget the scar on his left eyebrow which is insanely attractive for no reason." She says making me smile. Sounds like I'm doing something right if she feels like I'm making her weekend better. One point to me zero for Daniel. Okay that was childish. I take that back. Not...

"Oh really. Well guess what?" I say with a mischievous grin as she looks up to me with that same cute smile which has quickly become one of my favourite sights.

"What?" She cutely asks tightening her grip on my arm as we walk down the steps to reach the taxi parking in-front of the hotel.

"I think your really beautiful and I must say that your eyes are by far the most mesmerising things I've ever seen miss Olsen" I say which makes her blush just as we reach the taxi. My dad and Daniel get in first followed by Chris and scar then me and Lizzie.

"Lizzie why do you look like a ripe tomato?" Scar teases making me and Chris burst out laughing and Lizzie hide her face in my shoulder as she flips scar off.

If she keeps being this close to me I'm not sure how much longer I can resist her.

Daniels pov
Y/n's words from our talk in the room this morning are totally erased from my mind when I see how close she is with him. I'm not giving up that easily. Game on brother...
