{"If you don't love me, tell me. Please, just let me go."}

Y/N groaned as she heard someone knocking at her door and slightly rolled her eyes; she had just made herself comfortable in her bed with a movie and some snacks.

Hoping that someone would just go away, she stayed silent, but the person was persistent.

"I know you're in there, Y/N," Daniel's voice called out after some time, followed by an amused chuckle.

Signing, she rolled out of her bed before making her way towards the door and swinging it open, immediately being greeted by a grinning Australian.

"What's up?" She asked, shrugging her shoulders as he just walked past her and took a seat on the bed in her hotel room.

"We're going out today."

Y/N repeatedly shook her head at his statement, her eyes widening at the thought of having to get out of her cozy clothes. "Definitely not."

Smirking, Daniel ran a hand through his dark hair and leaned down to start rummaging through her suitcase, causing her to cross her arms in front of her chest.

After looking through different clothes for some time, he held a beautiful blue dress up, a content expression visible on his face. "Perfect."

"What about no were you unable to understand?"

The young woman tried to get the dress out of his grap, but he quickly pulled it away, hiding it behind his back.

"I'm your boss," He said, laughing quietly as she scoffed at him, but a smile found its way onto her lips nevertheless.

"Last time I checked, I signed the contract with Red Bull Racing and not with you."

"But you're my press assistant."

"You can search for a new one if you're not happy with me."

A frown found its way onto Daniel's face as he slowly stood up, taking her hand in his and keeping his eyes locked with hers.

"I'm asking you to come with me as a friend," He stated, causing her to sigh before nodding slightly, signalling that he had finally succeeding in convincing her, "You're the best!"

"And you're the worst."

Half an hour later, the two of them arrived at the club that wasn't too far from their hotel and immediately spotted some of the Australian's fellow drivers.

"Hey, Max," They greeted bis dutch teammate, sitting down beside him at the bar before ordering some drinks.

"Hey, you two. I started thinking you wouldn't show up."

"That's just because the lazy girl didn't want to get out of bed."

Y/N playfully hit his arm, rolling her eyes as Max made some weird gestures with his hands, probably trying to tell his teammate something, but the older driver shook his head.

Smirking, Max shrugged  his shoulders and leaned towards Y/N. "Why don't you two go dancing a little?"

Her heart started speeding up in her chest at his words, her eyes immediately searching for Daniel's.

"Why not?"

After glaring at Max, Daniel smiled at her, softly taking her hand to gide her over to the dancefloor.

Without hesitating, he placed his arms around her waist, pulling her closer, while her arms wrapped around his neck.

"You look incredibly beautiful today."

She felt like her heart was beating faster by the second and couldn't help but blush as their eyes met again.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Y/N cursed under her breadth as she rummaged through her purse for what felt like the hundredth time, but somehow, she couldn't find the keys. "I must have forgotten them. I'll go down to the reception."

Groaning, she turned around to see Daniel smiling at her from the side. "You can sleep in my room."

With wide eyes she watched as he unlocked his doors, gesturing for her to follow him. After biting her lip and taking a deep breath, she walked into Daniel's room, too, where he had already switched on the TV.

Not bothering to ask for some more comfortable clothes, she sat down beside him, her eyes focused on the TV in front of her, but she felt his fixated on her.

Her heart immediately began fluttering as she turned her head towards him, her eyes finding his.

Without even thinking about it, she slowly leaned in, her arms wandering around his neck as their lips met in a short kiss.

Y/N smiled after they had broken apart, his hand resting on her cheek.

"I've been in love with you ever since I first saw you," She whispered, causing his eyes to widen and his breath to quicken slightly.

She instantly regretted telling him about her feelings and wanted to back away because he didn't reply anything, but his arm had found its way around her waist, forcing her to stay where she was.

"If you don't love me, tell me. Please, just let me go."

Daniel's heart ached in his chest as he noticed the hurt in her voice. Not knowing what to say, he leaned in again, kissing her passionately.

"Stay," He said, smiling at her after they had broken apart, "I do love you."
