so, i did jules' sister since it fit better with their age.

------------------------------------------

y/n bianchi was not new to pain.

she lost her brother at a young age, 10, to be exact.

people used to tell her that at least she was young when it happened, and assumed that her young brain hadn't processed the fact that jules was dead until she was older.

that was utter and complete bullshit. even as a young child, her brother's death stuck to her like nothing else. the pain of losing him struck her little ten year old heart like a wrecking ball, and she was never the same happy kid she was before.

the years passed and she grew, but the pain was still there, present in every single step and every single decision she made.

it had been 7 years since his passing, and she had not ever attended a race after that day. but it was the last race of the season for arthur -who she also considered an older brother- and ollie -her boyfriend- and it would soon be the last one of the season for charles as well, and she promised them she would go.

the boys had done an incredible job on keeping her distracted until the race, but now that they had to get ready, her anxiety really started to kick in. memories of her brother’s car going under that truck flooded her mind as tears flooded her eyes. she rapidly stood up to try to get somewhere private, not wanting other people to see her in that state.

her chest hurt and every little sound sounded way too loud. she tripped on her way to the bathroom, but she couldn't make the effort to stand up. she curled herself on the floor, not being able to think of anything else but her brother, arthur, charles, and ollie.

she couldn't bare to lose any of them. charles and arthur were her brothers, the closest thing she had to jules, and ollie was just ollie, guy she met at aurthur’s party and stuck with her all night. the guy that asked her out three months after they met because he was too shy to do it before. her boyfriend.

her body jolted as she felt a hand on her shoulder. she could see a silhouette in front of her, but couldn't quite place who they were.

“y/n, breathe, it's okay” she heard an accented voice, and she tried her best to listen to what they were saying “here, try to breathe with me” she listened, following his instructions until her breathing had calmed down a bit. she realised it was ollie who stood in front of her. “can i hug you?” he asked, and she just engulfed him in a hug.

they stayed like that for what felt like forever, but couldn't have been that long. he whispered sweet nothings in her ear and stayed with her until she calmed down.

“i'm sorry you had to go through that. i can't tell you everything will be okay, and i can't make jules come back, but i can promise you that nothing is going to happen to me, or to arthur and charles. jules is protecting us and you, we’re safe” his words struck her.

she talked to the stars every night, asking jules to protect her boys, and if there was one thing jules never did, it was letting her down.

she nodded and broke the hug, standing up and pulling ollie along with her.

arthur looked worried as he stood in the prema garage, it was almost time for them to start the race. he hugged her as soon as he saw her.

she said her needed ‘good luck’s and i love you’s’ to the monegasque before going back to her boyfriend. he already had his helmet on, so she knocked on it to gain his attention.

“can you hear me?” she asked, and went on as he nodded “i love you with everything in me. i know you'll come back to me because my brother is looking after you, so go and win because you deserve it more than anyone.” she kissed the helmet and let him go to his car.

the race started and she felt peaceful. she could almost feel her brother hug her from the side, and she knew he was with her.

“i'm going to the bathroom, please don't kill each other” dino said, looking at aurora and paul glaringly.

aurora did nothing but show him his middle finger as paul rolled his eyes. dino laughed and left the room, leaving them in an awkward silence.

they had confessed their feelings for each other recently and they were still hiding their situationship from their peers. the newly revealed feelings still felt a little awkward between them, as they didnt know how to show them.

so they are mean to each other to hide the awkwardness.

“why are you breathing so hard? oh my god” aurora groaned, looking up from her phone to look at him.

“really? i'm breathing too hard?” he complained, looking at her too.

“yes.” she dared him with her eyes.

“shut me up then, come here.” paul looked at her with a grin adorning his lips.

that took her by complete surprise. yes, they had made out multiple times, but it was still new to her how forward paul was when he wanted to.

“fuck no, if dino comes in and finds us kissing we are done for. also i don't want to kiss your ugly face.” she denied, looking at him with fake disgust.

the way her nose scrunched made her look adorable in his eyes. just watching her mean, sarcastic humour made him feel all giddy inside and it was a very weird feeling. not one he could express to her without her making fun of him, anyways.

“okay then, your loss” he stuck his tongue out at her without knowing that this gesture made her feel the same thing he had felt before.

they went back to the silence, the only thing that could be heard was sounds that came out of their phones. stolen glances were exchanged from his part, noticing how she was shamelessly staring at him.

he was just so hot, she couldn't help it. she couldn't help to think of how she wanted to lay next to him, caress his face and kiss him. she knew she could, and her time was running out before dino came to pester them again.

fuck it

she stood up from her place on the couch and sat alongside him. he looked up at her and showed her a small smile that made the butterflies in her stomach do flips and turns.

aurora grabbed his face and left a small kiss on his lips. it wasn't like their other kisses, it was tender and short, but left a smile on both of their faces.

they looked at each other for a few seconds before they heard footsteps nearing the room. she stood up again and moved to the opposite couch, continuing to watch her phone as if nothing had happened.

“you guys didn't kill each other!” dino celebrated, laughing a little too long about his own very unfunny joke.

while dino laughed, paul sent a wink in auroras direction, making her smile.

part one.

------------------------------------------------------

lia was laying in her bed, staring at the ceiling. three weeks had passed since she made the bet with ollie, and unless he had an epiphany and realized he was in love with her overnight, she had lost. 

she didn't really care about losing the dare, but she had focused so much on trying to get ollie to fall for her, that she didn't really think much about how he was the only thing on her mind.

she had given up. not that she was doing anything special, if he fell in love, he would have to fall for the real her. anyways, she was done.

three days ago, when she realized that she was, infact, in love with oliver bearman, it hit her. hard. she didn't want to keep fueling the feeling, so she started ignoring him. -as much as she could with him being absolutely everywhere she went.-  she didn't even call quits on the game, she just stopped.

lia was pulled out of her thoughts when her phone buzzed. she ignored the first one. but at the second buzz she felt obligated to check it. her heart stopped when she read ollie's name on the top. she opened it immediately.

                                        ollie❤️

lia

thanks

read at 2:38am

her heart raced when she stood up from her bed. she looked in the mirror, not giving much thought into her outfit. sweatpants and a hoodie, it wasn't anything special, but she didn't really care with everything that was going on in her head.

she climbed through her window and her breath hitched when she saw he was already sitting there, his back facing her.

“my window is on the other side, dumbass” she joked, trying to calm her nerves. he turned to face her, and he looked so good under the moonlight that she wanted to scream. “hi” he smiled softly, and her desire to scream only increased. “hi” she returned the smile, and they just stared at each other for a second.

“so, what did you want to talk about?” his smile faded a little bit before speaking “uhm, i just really wanted to- i mean- you like- i don't know-” he seemed on the verge of having a mental breakdown, and she was not having it “hey, breathe, take your time” she said. 

her hand instinctively went up to caress his cheek softly. he closed his eyes, leaning into her palm and taking a breath. when he opened his eyes, the intensity of them scared her “why are you ignoring me?”

 he had sounded so hurt that she felt like dying “what?” she only muttered “you've been ignoring me for three days.” the girl was so baffled that she didn't know what to answer “no, i haven't” she realized her hand was still on his cheek and removed it as fast as possible, immediately missing the feeling of his cold skin. 

“yes you have. today, at the race. you went with arthur -who by the way, got second- instead of me, who actually won.” he sounded upset, and if she didn't know better, she would say he sounded jealous.

 “everyone went to you, ollie” she tried to come up with an excuse “but you didn't, why?” the boy’s eyes seemed to stare into her soul “can i not support my friend?” the girl was still trying to push the excuse. 

she looked down, avoiding his gaze. now she was the one on the verge of a mental breakdown. “you know that's not it, remember rule one.” rule one was complete honesty, always. she knew he wasn't going to let her go until she was honest with him. “i partially won, you know?”

now he was confused “what?” she breathed before looking back at him. she had one more week with him, and she wasn't going to ignore him anymore.

 “you didn't fall for me, but i fell for you. i didnt choose to, for fucks sake, i didnt even realize. but i fell for you, hard, and i spent the last three days trying to make it disappear but i can't. because you're in my head every second of the day, you should pay rent at this point.” she finished with a deep breath and took a second to prepare for rejection. 

there were a few seconds of silence, which she imagined were him trying to get the words to reject her. “you didn't partially win” he said “hey, i know i lost but at least give me the partial win, no?” she tried to laugh to not cry.

 “thats not what i meant, listen!” he laughed “yeah, sorry” she laughed softly “i realized a few days ago, but then you started ignoring me, so i thought you just didn't care anymore. and today, seeing you run to arthur instead of me made me so mad that i had to ask you what it was about. i had no plan on actually telling you, but then you show up wearing my hoodie and i had to tell you before its too late. you won, i'm completely and bone crushingly in love with you. like the type of in love in which i think about your stupid lips, or your long eyelashes and it makes me smile. what kinda gay shit is that? i don't even know, but the worst part is that it doesn't bother me. i like it, even.”

her heart stopped beating for a second, as she realized what he was saying. “you're in love with me?” she couldn't believe it. “yes, very much” ollie let out a small, nervous laugh that made lias heart melt. 

“well, that's unexpected” she was still processing the new information “how? you've literally spent the last month trying to make me fall in love with you?” he looked at her with furrowed eyebrows and a humoristic look in his eyes “oh shut up, i didn't know if it would actually work!” 

they were both smiling like idiots at each other. they stayed like that for a few moments, before the boy leaned in and kissed her. his hand went straight up to the side of her face, holding her more firmly as she started kissing back. they watched the sunrise that way, stealing kisses and cuddles on the rooftop.

------------------------------------------------------

bonus!!!!

the next morning, lia woke up on her bed. she didn’t really remember how she got there after her talk with ollie.

 ollie.  

the thought of him made her smile. she lazily stood up, brushing her teeth and going to the bathroom before going out of her room. 

funny enough, ollie came out of his room at the same time. he smiled at her, one of those smiles that made her the happiest she could be.

“woww, good afternoon, love birds. you both look like shit” jaks voice took them out of their trance. “love birds?” ollie asked, lauging faintly at his friends antics.

 “yeah. anyways, next time you guys want to have a dramatic love confession on the roof, maybe dont go directly next to my window? i was trying to sleep.” a smile formed into jaks lips when both teenagers went red as tomatoes.

part two.

------------------------------------------------------------

it was finally time for lia to see jak again. they had been best friends growing up, but she hadn't seen him since she moved back to her home country at 14. 

they kept in contact, of course, but they missed each other way too much. that's why as soon as they got a chance, jak flew her into italy to see him. he had to convince ollie to go with him to the airport at 4:30 in the morning, but he ended up going.

after approximately 21 hours of travel, in which she slept almost half way and done homework the other, lia finally arrived to venice. 

nervousness started to grow in her as she collected her luggage. what if jak just didn't like her anymore? would he be disappointed? 

she swallowed her nerves and walked towards the gate, where jak had said he was waiting for her. 

the girls eyes didn't meet jak’s first. they met a pair of dark brown eyes that seemed to call for hers. she noticed a small smile form on his lips before she averted her look towards jak.

“lia!” jak exclaimed, jogging to her before embracing her in the most bone crushing hug he had ever given her. “i missed you, feo” (ugly) she whispered softly, only for him to hear “i missed you too” he squeezed her one more time before letting her go.

 “this is ollie, i replaced you with him” lia rolled her eyes slightly before extending her hand towards him “lia alfonso, nice to meet you.” he took her hand in his “ollie-” “bearman, i know” she interrupted him. “shit lia, you stalking my friends now?” jak made fun of her “only the hottest ones” she winked at ollie, causing him go bright red.

when they arrived home like an hour later, she got settled into the guest room and took a hot shower before going to the living room where both boys awaited.

ollie was just sitting down on the couch, putting a tray with food on the table. “i made us breakfast, didnt know if you were hungry” he smiled shyly at her, he was adorable “i am, thank you” they had breakfast on the couch, catching up on things they had forgot to say over the phone or just telling random stories until ollie spoke “fuck, i forgot im going to lunch with aurora today!” 

a wave of disappointment swarmed lia’s mind, he had a girlfriend “i'll ask her if you guys can come with, i don't think she’ll mind though” he pulled out his phone to text her. “oh, that's fine! wouldn't want to ruin your date” she smiled, she really didn't. “oh no, she's  not my girlfriend” he denied “she's my best friend, beautiful girl, wouldn't touch her with a stick though” he scrunched his nose at the thought.

relief washed over her, and she smiled at how adorable he looked scrunching his nose “also paul would burn the stick and beat you with it” jak joked, making ollie laugh.

later that afternoon, the three teens pulled into a restaurant's driveway, getting off the car and walking in. they spotted aurora rapidly, as she was waving at them from a table. she was sitting next to a pretty attractive young guy, who stared at the girl sitting next to him in awe. 

“hi, im aurora!” she was extroverted and irradiated confidence. “im lia, nice to meet you.” she smiled back, matching -or at least trying- her energy. 

“im paul, hi” the blonde introduced himself “oh hi, burnt any sticks on the way here?” she said, laughing lightly at her own joke and his confused face. he looked even more confused when the other to boys laughed as well. “stupid joke, sorry” she apologized, taking a seat next to jak.

they had a very enjoyable lunch talking about random stuff and sharing stories of when aurora and ollie were kids or when jak and lia were kids. at some point, lia couldn't exactly tell you when, the conversation circled to the subject of love.

 “i think that you can somewhat choose who you love, though,” ollie said “maybe not totally consciously, but I mean, a part of your brain already does. our brain chooses not to fall in love with children, or really old people or bad people” he had a point, but lia didn't agree fully. “not really though! maybe in those cases, because you know it's morally wrong, but like, you can't meet a person and say ‘i'm never going to fall for them’ because you never know!” aurora agreed, nodding at her words.

“true, but you can just stop, if you realise you're falling for this person, you have the capability to stop.” ollie tried to reason “that's not really how it works, mate” paul chimed in, sneaking a glance at aurora.

 “you know what? i am totally sure i can make you fall in love with me” everyone went silent at lia’s voice. “what?” ollie chuckled, “I can prove that you can't choose who you fall for.” 

everyone was perplexed at her words “love, i met you this morning” he laughed, he found it funny? she was going to prove her point. “im staying for like a month, give me a month and you will be utterly in love with me.” the look in her eyes was so confident it kind of scared ollie. “you know what? fuck it, you have a month to make me fall in love with you” he agreed. “okay then, let's set some ground rules.”

                     ollie and lia’s ground rules. 

                (written on the back of a napkin)

1- complete honesty ALWAYS.

2- immediate stop if either of the parties feels uncomfortable/wants to stop.

3- lia’s deadline is august 30th.

“you sure you want to do this?” lia’s eyes were dairng “yes.” he extended his hand towards her and she took it, sealing the deal.

i accidentaly deleted the ask for another lia and ollie one shot because im bad at life but here it is!

--------------------------------------------------------

lia’s ticket was booked for august 31st. exactly a day after the deadline her and ollie had set for the dare.

it was now august 30th, and she was finishing packing her bags. ollie sat on the floor, staring at her until he noticed a tear running down her cheek. the girl tried to wipe it away before he noticed, but it was too late.

“love? are you okay?” ollie asked, standing up and walking towards her “im alright” she answered, continuing to put clothes in her suitcase without facing him. “are you sure? he pushed as he heard her sniffle “yes, ollie, i'm sure” lia pushed back, wiping her tears as she packed more aggressively. “lia, look at me. stop for a second” he took her hands in his, stopping her from grabbing anymore clothes.

ollie’s heart clenched at the sight of her face. her cheeks were wet with tears, her eyes red and her bottom lip quivered lightly. he didn't say anything and just hugged her, letting her sob into his chest.

“i don't want to leave, ollie” she cried, making his heart clench even more “i know, i don't want you to leave either” his hand weaved through her hair, trying to apeace her as much as he could.

he held her until she stopped crying, leaving her to do whatever he needed to do without leaving her side. when she excused herself to go to the bathroom, ollie thought of ways to have her stay. there were only two races left in the season, maybe her parents would let her stay? maybe they would let her go somewhere with him after it finished?

he would do whatever he could to convince them, but he needed jak’s help.

lia’s last day went by faster than she wanted it to, and she was now halfway to the airport.

she cuddled further into her boyfriend’s chest, wanting to be as close to him as possible. her eyes were tired from crying and she hadn’t slept much the night before. the last thing she felt before falling asleep was the faint kiss ollie left on her forehead.

at the airport, she stood with ollie, jak, aurora and paul, who had gone to say goodbye to her. their conversation was interrupted by the sound of her flight being called. lia’s heart clenched.

why did she have to leave? things with ollie had just started.

she hugged paul first, greeting the unexpected friend she had made. “take care of rora, and take care of yourself, okay?” she asked, looking at him with tears in her eyes. “of course, and you too. send me pictures of your food” he gave her a small smile and she noticed the glossiness in his eyes. she kissed his cheek before moving to aurora.

“i love you so much” aurora whispered after hugging her close to her body “i love you too, and i’ll see you soon, okay?” lia felt the other girl nod “take care of the boys, don't kill them” lia chuckled before breaking the hug.

she didn't even have the chance to turn before jak attacked her with a hug “im not letting you go, you can't leave again” he cried into her neck. lia’s heart clenched. she had thought about ollie so much that she didn't realise how painful it would be to leave her best friend “im sorry, i promise i’ll see you soon” she cried with him. “i’ll go visit you and steal you away, fuck school” jak said, making her chuckle lightly before pulling away. “call me whenever you need me, doesn't matter what time it is, i’ll answer” she assured. he kissed her forehead, giving her one last smile before pushing her towards ollie.

she smiled as she looked at him. he looked so pretty, even when crying. he returned his smile before hugging her tightly. “i love you, more than i’ve ever loved anyone else. i promise i’ll see you soon, and we’ll make it work even if i don't.” his words were barely whispers, meant only for her to hear “of course we will, i love you way too much to let you off that easily” she whispered back. they separated from the hug and pushed their lips together, sharing one last kiss before she had to leave.

“last call for flight #444, venice to buenos aires” the voice boomed from their speakers, letting her know it was time to go.

“i love you.” she whispered against his lips. “i love you too.” ollie copied her actions before pulling apart from her. lia waved at all of them, grabbing her bags and walking away towards the boarding area.

tears rolled off her cheeks as she went through security and walked her way to the plane. her phone buzzed in her hand, and her eyebrows furrowed as she saw her mom’s name on the screen.

her heart stopped as she read the message.

                              señora madre

quédate con ollie y jak, amor. (stay with ollie and jak, love)

sabemos que es lo que quieres. (we know thats what you want)

read at 7:12am

her heart beamed as she started running on the opposite way from the plane. she stopped next to the security guard to explain her situation frantically. lucky for her, the guard was nice and understood, letting her go.

once she was in the building once again, she looked around to see if she could find her friends. when she couldn't see them, she pulled her phone from her pocket and called ollie

“lia?” he answered, his voice full of confusion “ollie, where are you?” her voice scared him. she sounded like she had been running. “is everything alright?” she smiled at the worry in his voice “yeah, just tell me where you are” she looked around, trying to locate them again “uhm, we’re at the cafe next to the giant cardboard dolphin” he answered “okay, bye!” she cut the call off before running towards th delfin.

“ollie! jak!” she screamed. people looked at her weird, but she didn't care, she got to stay with her boys, and aurora of course. “lia?” ollie asked, confused. she let out a joyful laugh, jumping into his arms and almost making him fall over. “love, what are you doing here?” he was confused but he sounded happy. “my parents told me to stay!” she joyfully said. his smile grew wider as he hugged her closer and spun her around.

she was ripped away from ollie as jak brought it to her arms.

“hey, that’s my girlfriend!” ollie complained jockingly “but she’s my best friend!” jak stuck his tongue out at him and hugged her closer to him “stop, stop!” she laughed, squirming out of his arms. she swung her arms around aurora, kissing her cheeks loudly “she’s more important” they all laughed before going back to eating.

they got back into the car, and as she once again snuggled into her boyfriend's arms. “im so glad you stayed” he whispered into her hair “i am too” he kissed the top of her head “i love you” she lifted her chin, placing a kiss to his jaw. “i love you too.”

lia’s and aurora’s alliance

two days after the dare was placed, lia found herself sitting at one of prema’s garages, headphones on while watching some f3 practice runs.

she had been trying to think about how she was going to approach ollie to win the dare. for it to be an actual win, he had to fall in love with her, not any fake personalities. she was just going to act normal, flirt with him and hope for that to be enough.

just as she decided that, aurora walked into the garage. she talked to a few engineers momentarily before walking towards lia. “hello” she waved, making lia smile at her. they decided to head out to the cafeteria and eat something before the boys joined them.

they talked about everything and anything. aurora told her the story of how she found out that paul liked her back and they had a weird more-than-friends-but-not-dating situation and she didn't know how to approach him about it, it was even weird to talk to him as if they didn't hate each other a few months ago.

“how’s the dare going, by the way?” aurora asked, not wanting to talk more about herself. “well, i’ve known him for three days, so i can't really know what his reactions mean.” lia sighed, moving a strand of her short hair off her face. “oh! i’ve got an idea!” aurora said excitedly, making lia raise her eyebrows “i know ollie like the palm of my hand, flirt with him and i’ll see how he reacts!” it might have been a questionable idea, but at that moment it sounded like the best idea someone had ever had.

later on, when ollie and jak entered the cafeteria, the two girls saw it as the perfect opportunity. “hey jak, can you help me find paul?” aurora asked the younger driver, giving him a look that immediately notified him of the real purpose. “yeah, sure.” he agreed and they both stood up, leaving only to hide on a table far away, making sure that ollie didn't see them.

ollie cleared his throat, trying to ease the silence that sat in between them. “so… how was practice?” the girl asked “it was good. pablo told me you were watching me, actually.” he smiled at the faint blush that adorned her cheeks. “yeah.. i had to leave though, it was getting way too hot” she smirked. he quickly understood that she wasn't talking about the weather, which made his cheeks go red. she smiled smugly at this, making him roll his eyes at her look.

he wasn't going to let her win.

“i think that might be normal around you though, don't you think?” that broke her, she couldn't keep a straight face or help the rush of crimson that overtook her cheeks. she covered her face with her palms, making him laugh faintly.

aurora and jak observed the situation from afar. deciding that lia looked defeated enough, they both stood up and went back to the table. the pair blurted a random excuse about not finding paul and sat down. lia started speaking to jak almost immediately, clearly trying to change the current embarrassed energy that surrounded them.

a buzz from her phone made lia look at the screen.

                                       rora<3

he likes you. i think you have to up your flirting skills tho, you looked more embarrassed than him lmao.

read at 3:07 p.m

lia couldn’t help but smile at the text. she shut her phone, sending a smile in auroras way before placing her attention back on the conversation the boys held.

---------------------------------------------------

discoveries and faint jealousy.

ollie, jak, paul, and dino sat next to a football field. they had just finished filming the wheelbarrow video, and were now waiting for arthur and dennis to finish so they could know who won. they talked while sometimes watching the two boys, laughing at how loud arthur naturally was.

their conversation circled back to the dare lia had proposed, making ollie the centre of the boy’s attention. “okay but question, do you lose if you like, kiss her?” dino asked. “i don't think so, it wouldn't mean you're in love with her” paul shrugged. “why would i kiss her in the first place?” ollie’s question sounded more defensive than it was supposed to, which made his friends laugh. “we know you think she’s hot. don't you want to know if she’s a good kisser as well?”

dino had a point. ollie would be lying if he said he hadn't wondered how it would feel to kiss her, but again, he didn't want to lose the dare.

“she is.” jak’s statement shocked everyone. “wait, what?” paul’s voice sounded as flabbergasted as his face proved him to be. jak laughed at their faces. “dude, me and lia have known each other for forever, we’ve made out a couple times.” he really didn't know if he should be offended or amused at how confused his friends were at the thought of him kissing lia.

ollie ignored the pang of jealousy he felt, deciding to focus on the confusion jak’s confession made him feel. hadn't they said they were almost like siblings?

“i thought you guys were like siblings?” he couldn't stop the words coming from his mouth, he just prayed he didn't sound as jealous as he was. “we are, but there was a summer when we were like 15 that we decided to see if we were actually ‘meant for each other’ like everyone said we were. shocker, we are not, we are just both talented kissers.” jak shrugged, looking directly into oliver’s eyes with a humorous smile.

“imagining you and lia making out just gives me the creeps” dino spoke, making an exaggerated disgusted face “i know, but it's kinda normal though. have you and aurora ever kissed?” jak looked at ollie with a raised brow. “i mean, once when we were like 5 because her older sister married us, and once in 7th grade for a dare” ollie’s eyes went to paul, fearing for murder to find him smiling to himself.

“you got more jealous than paul, that's just shameful” jak laughed, making ollie roll his eyes. “shut up… look they’re finished” ollie found salvation on arthur and dennis reaching the finish line.

------------------------------------------------------

ollie’s realisation.

lia sat in jak’s living room. it was the boy’s free day, and they were both sleeping late.

it was already 12:26p.m when ollie came out of his room, looking sleepy and with a bedhead. “morning, sleeping beauty” lia laughed at his sleepy smile, a fuzzy feeling growing inside of her at the sight. “morning” his hoarse voice made her heart skip a beat. “there’s food in the fridge, by the way” she smiled and turned back to her sketchbook after hearing his small ‘thanks.’

ollie sat on the couch in front of her, soaking in the way she looked while drawing. she looked relaxed. free.

“is the food good?” her voice snapped him out of his trance “yeah” her smile grew wider at his words. it was a simple avocado toast, but he liked it. “i thought i could make you food for once, since you always cook.” he smiled at her fondly.

she looked so proud of the fact that he liked her food that he promised himself to like everything she cooked from that point on. he could eat cardboard and love it if it meant he could see her smile that way.

since when was he willing to eat cardboard for her?

since when was he willing to eat cardboard for anyone, really?

he decided to ignore the thought, focusing on finishing his food as he watched her draw. “what are you drawing?” his curiosity got the best of him “nothing that concerns you” the girl stuck her tongue out at him, smiling mischievously. “wow, rude” ollie faked offence “but really, what is it?” he insisted, making her sigh “i’ll show you once i finish it, okay? pinky promise” 

she stuck her pinky finger towards him. his smile grew wider on his face as he laced their fingers together. lia brought her own hand to her lips and kissed it, maintaining eye contact in between them.

when did eye contact become so hot?

the boy repeated her actions, his brown eyes crashing against her green ones. her cheeks were overtaken by a faint crimson colour before she looked away, untangling their fingers and moving further back into the couch. they proceeded to have small conversations here and there until jak woke up, joining them and breaking the moment in between them.

a couple days later, when ollie had just gotten out of the shower, he noticed a strange paper situated on his desk. he picked it up and saw the most beautiful piece of art he had ever seen. it was a picture of him, looking to the side while wearing his fda shirt. he could only assume it was painted in watercolours, and damn, it was gorgeous.

as he held it closer to the light to see it better, he saw black ink on the other side of the paper. as he turned it around, he found a small note in lia’s handwriting.

i always fulfil my pinky promises, i hope you like it.

                                                                        - lia<3

he stared at the art piece with a lovesick face for a couple seconds before realisation hit him. he had lost. he was completely and utterly in love with lia alfonso.

------------------------------------------------------

lia’s realisation

lia sat on the prema box during the f3 race. her headphones allowed her to listen to ollie’s radio.

he was leading the race and only had 5 laps left when he notified his engineer about the steering wheel filling funny. just as he was going into the box, he seemed to lose control of the car, as it hit a bump and spun into a wall.

a gasp left lia’s mouth as her heart stopped. her eyes filled with tears immediately as ollie didn't answer his engineers calls. “yeah, im okay.” she breathed hard, a wave of relief hitting her chest at the sound of his groggy voice.

oliver was brought back to the prema hospitality, where he was checked for any injuries before entering the room where lia was. the girl rushed to him, enveloping him in her arms, taking him by surprise. the surprise faded when he heard her quiet sobs, only to be replace with a warmth on his heart.

“im okay, love. im okay” he pressed her further into him, kissing the top of her head. “that was so scary” she whispered against his chest when her crying ceased. “i know, but im here and im okay, i promise” the boy whispered into lia’s hair. she separated lightly from him, holding her up her pinky. he laced his finger with hers, kissing his hand before she kissed hers to seal the promise.

when ollie pulled her in for another hug, she realised how scared she had been to the thought of losing him.

fuck.

authors note:

hello, beautiful people! i have to say i really liked writting this.

i wanted to give ollie and lia’s story a bit more depth so i thought writing small scenarios was a good way to do that. now that i’m done with these i’m going to keep going with the story from where we left off (the conffession)
