No strings attached

30.

Lando's POV

I woke up the next day, alone. Aimée was already gone.
I wasn't too surprised about that, it was all sex for her anyways, but it wasn't just sex for me.
I tried to tell her several times, but she didn't wanna hear it, or didn't let me finish.
I didn't really care, I would try again and again until she would be ready to listen.

I stretched my arms before getting up and walked to the bathroom. I knew my best friend Max would come over soon, he definitely set us up so he probably wanted to hear what happened between us.
We planned to to back to England before I had to leave to my next race.
I took a quick shower and fixed my curls before putting on some sweats and a hoodie.
"Yo mate, are you guys naked or not?" Max said as he walked in. He had the keys to my apartment so didn't bother to ring the doorbell.
"I am dressed and alone" I yelled from the the bedroom.
"So.. nothing happened? Was the restaurant not nice?" He asked as he walked in the bedroom.
"The restaurant was perfect and so was she, but she only wants to fuck around" I explained as I opened the drawer where my watches were.

And they were all gone. Every single one.

"Did you just see a ghost?" Max chuckled as he walked up to me and looked at the drawer.
His face dropped, he was looking at the same thing. An empty drawer.
"Please tell me you moved them?" He quickly looked at me. I shook my head. "I didn't"
Aimée had sex with me just to steal from me.

I closed the drawer with a slam and walked right passed Max.
"Where are you going?" Max said as he walked after me. "I am gonna get my watches back" I said as I grabbed my keys and walked out of my apartment.

I never drove as fast as I was driving now. Not in a normal car at least.
Why did she do this? I couldn't believe she would use me like that.
Fuck, I started to like a girl who only wanted to steal?

I stopped in front of her building and ran her doorbell.
"Yeah?" Someone answered the intercom but it wasn't Aimée, it was Kara. "It's Lando" she didn't reply but opened the door anyways.
I quickly walked in the elevator and walked to their door, which was already open.
I knocked the door anyways before walking in. "Hi Lando, what are you do..." Kara asked. "Where is she?" I said as I looked around the living room. She wasn't here.
"Aimée? She isn't here" Kara said as I was walking to Aimée's room. "I said she isn't here" Kara repeated herself, this time a bit more annoyed.

I said down on the edge of her bed with a sigh. We had so many good memories here, but they were all gone.
"What's wrong Lando?" Kara asked as she sat down next to me.
"Do you know where she went?" I dodged her question. I didn't want her to think bad about Aimée.
Why was I still protecting her?
"She went to the airport. I thought she went to Barcelona with you" she sounded genuine, she had really no idea what happened, but she obviously wasn't going to Barcelona with me.

If Kara didn't know where she was going then no one knew.
"I was starting to fall for her, so badly" I mumbled. I don't know why I was confessing this to Kara but I had a feeling she already knew.
"I know" she said as she put her hand on my leg.
"Aimée might be stupid and blind but you shouldn't put your name on the delivery order when you secretly want to send us food" she chuckled a little.
It was the first time today that I actually smiled. Yeah I was that stupid.
"Thank you though" Kara whispered.
I smiled as I looked at her and shrugged my shoulders.

It was honestly nothing. I just wanted them to have an easier life.
I bet she was gonna have a pretty easy life now though.
