You met Ollie at the beginning of 2022. You were a fan of motosport since you were little thanks to your uncle, you loved moto gp, rally... But your favorite was without a doubt f1 and f3. So when f3 announced that it would do the pre-season tests at the Jerez circuit, which was quite close to where you lived, you didn't miss the opportunity and convinced your parents to let you go with your uncle to see the tests.
When you got there you only intended to see the cars and feel the thrill of speed. Due to the small number of people allowed, attendees were allowed to approach the garages to see the cars and drivers up close, so you went straight to the Prema Racing garage, being your favorite.
You approached and there were already some more people there looking at the cars and listening to what the engineers were explaining about them. You got distracted by admiring the cars, amazed at all that they entailed.
Due to your distraction, you did not notice the young rookie driver of Prema Racing looking at you with almost the same admiration with which you looked at his car. Arthur, his mate that year, decided to give his friend a push on the back when he saw him looking at you.
"Go talk to her," Arthur told him.
“Forget it. She's going to think I'm weird. And I don't even know what to say to her" Ollie shook his head nervously. He actually wanted to go close to you, you were so beautiful and you seemed so ethereal as you looked at his car. At that moment he thought he wanted to see you there like that during all his races.
“Tell her about your car. About the races. It shows that she is here for that, who knows, maybe she falls madly in love with you ”Arthur laughed a little at his own statement.
Ollie hesitated for a few seconds and with a renewed confidence, he approached you with Arthur's surprised face behind him.
Who was going to tell you two that after that conversation back in February, you weren't going to be able to stop talking. And well as Arthur said, you fell head over heels in love in no time.
That brought you to today, it was the last race of the f3 season and being so important to Ollie, you didn't want to miss it. But despite being with Ollie for a while and going to every race you could this season, you were still unsure what to say about your relationship. With both of you being young and Ollie being an up-and-comer in f3, you were afraid that his fans and the press would criticize you online. But what happened after the race was over pleasantly surprised you.
You had watched the entire race from Prema's garage, and you were so sad when Ollie lost the championship. You walked out of the garage, seeing Ollie hug all the mechanics and get hugged by a man leaning his body against a fence.
The man holding Ollie saw you coming, and giving you an encouraging smile, he stepped away from Ollie, leaving you to comfort your boyfriend. As soon as you had Ollie in your arms, with his head tucked into your neck and his arms wrapped around your waist, your boyfriend let out some sobs. You stroked his hair with your hand and let him release everything.
You moved away when Ollie stopped sobbing. You cupped his cheeks between your hands, wiping the remains of tears from his face. You met his eyes with a soft look and he looked back at you, love and gratitude shining in his eyes. You gave him a tender peck on the lips and spoke.
"I'm so proud of you Ollie" you said softly.
“It was my fault. I lost and it was my fault” he blamed himself.
“It's been a race Ollie. You're very talented, and you shouldn't blame yourself for just one race. You will have more opportunities. So I don't want to hear you say that again, okay?" you scolded him a bit.
"I love you so much. Thank you for being here with me, I couldn't do it without you” Ollie thanked you.
You smiled at him and gave him one last peck on the lips and you linked hands going to the prema garage so you could finally go home. All the pressure you felt when you arrived was gone with Ollie.
The next day, you and Ollie were shocked to see all the pictures and comments about the scene you had shared when comforting Ollie. People loved you together and liked how much you loved Ollie. And the two of you couldn't be happier together.
