LINNEA AWOKE IN OLIVERS ARMS ONCE MORE, she was confused for a second. until remembering, right. jeddah. it's friday. ITS FRIDAY.

she quickly shot up from the bed and grabbed her phone to see what time it was, 8:30. she hastily shook the boys body next to her, who groaned in protest. "wake up, oliver! we're already late!" she told him.

"late for what?" his voice was filled with sleep, "late for what?!?? for your practice?? for your quali???" she ranted in reply.

"it's a night race nea, everything's in the afternoon." ollie groaned, pulling her to lie back down. linnea felt silly now, "right. sorry." she apologized. "it's fine, just go back to sleep." she did as she was told, cuddling back into ollie.

around two hours later, they both woke up again. this time getting out of bed, to get ready. linnea took a shower first and when she was done, ollie went in. that gave the girl some time to get dressed and look presentable.

the boy changed into a ferrari driver academy shirt and some simple jeans, much like what he wore in bahrain. "we gotta work on that fashion sense." linnea mumbled, mostly to herself, but the boy had heard.

"what's wrong with my fashion sense?" he seemed lowkey offended, "it's not exactly wrong!! it's just very repetitive." she tried to soften the blow, it seemed to work.

"what would you have me change then? i have to wear the team shirt." he seemed genuinely interested on how he could change his outfits. "i see f1 drivers in normal clothes when arriving all the time, later they change into their team clothes. you don't get to do that??" she asked, confused.

"i don't really know actually." ollie seemed to think about it, "y'know what? let's find out." he said, pulling off his fda shirt and grabbing a more loose fitted shirt from his suitcase.

it was a simple white t-shirt, "better?" he asked the girl, "a bit. we have to get you something else then skinny jeans as well." she calculated, the boy nodding in response, "whatever you say."

linnea grabbed her purse, she took ollie's fda shirt and stuffed it in. "luckily i have purse!" she referenced the meme, the boy immediately got it and laughed.

after the giggles had ceased, ollie took linnea's hand and pulled her out of the room. "i think breakfast is already closed in the hotel it's self. lemme text the guys." the boy said when they were in the elevator.

as the last text popped up on her phone, ollie poked her in her side. linnea immediately doubled over, the boy grabbing her phone in the process. "flawless victory!!" he quoted. "you cheater!" she raised her voice.

she tried to get it back but the tall boy held the phone up in the air, preventing the short girl from grabbing it. the two were stood in the lobby, waiting for kimi and paul. dino too, but he would leave immediately.

a few seconds later, kimi came walking out of the elevator. he spotted linnea trying to get her phone back from the tall boy and laughed. "goodmorning, piccioncini." he announced, oliver gave him a look and linnea looked confused. (translation: lovebirds)

"what does that mean?" she asked, not speaking enough italian. "nothing, bellissima, don't worry about it." the boy next to her assured, linnea immediately forgetting about it as the nickname caught her off guard.

kimi had heard ollie call the girl the italian pet name, he smirked but decided not to say anything about it. the three chatted for a few more minutes until paul joined them. dino was with him in the elevator, he said hi but quickly made his way out of the hotel to get to the track in time.

"the breakfast hall is already closed so we'll have to find some other place to eat." ollie said as he handed linnea her phone back. "i think there was some sort of lunch place down the street." paul mentioned.

the four friends went to said lunch place and had their late breakfast. paul payed for all of them and they left to the garage next to the hotel, this time the audi a6 was for them.

kimi and paul had their own cars in the garage but the four decided to just go together. ollie sat in the driver seat, linnea in the passenger seat and paul and kimi in the back.

linnea was on aux again, she put on coraline by måneskin. she barely understood any italian but sang what she knew, kimi sung with her. some more songs played until they arrived at the jeddah circuit.

there were herds of people being held back by fences, much like in bahrain. ollie parked the car and the four stepped out of the vehicle. to the girls surprise, there were people yelling her name.

she smiled as she waved at them. before she knew it, ollie and paul had grabbed her shoulders and taken her with them to the fans.

"linnea! hi! you're so pretty!" a blonde girl in front of linnea said, she looked a little younger then herself, maybe fourteen. "thank you, sweets! you are too." linnea smiled back.

"can i take a picture with you?" the younger girl asked, linnea was a little shocked but nodded anyways. she leaned in to smile for the picture, feeling a bit nervous.

after that, she took more pictures with people and said hi to all of them. with each fan expressing their admiration for her, she felt more and more comfortable with all of the people.

a few minutes later, the three drivers came to get linnea. she waved bye to the little boy she was talking to, and the boy waved back. "they love you more then they love us." paul joked, linnea laughed. "they know their goat."she replied.

about five hours later, linnea was exhausted, ollie had pole and kimi had slotted into p6. for some reason the prema's did work around here. the boys were happy and so, she was happy too.

the prema team celebrated the pole position, excited to be back on top. after all the congratulations ollie and kimi got, the three went to go find paul. they found him in the hospitality building, he had qualified tenth, so pole for the sprint.

the four friends went back out to the parking lot, saying hi to some more fans. after a few minutes they decided it was time to go back to the hotel, stepping into the car. this time, paul would drive them, kimi in the passenger seat, linnea and ollie in the back.

the girl had, almost immediately, fallen asleep. she had her head on the boys lap, kimi and paul laughing at how quick she dozed off. it didn't take long for ollie to fall asleep as well.

once they arrived back at the hotel, kimi woke the pair up. they ate their dinner together and all went to bed quite fast after that.

the next morning, linnea and ollie woke up once more tangled in each others arms. they stayed in their pyjama's as they ordered room service to get them breakfast.

the two were enjoying their grilled cheeses with some fruits on the side when ollie's phone rang. "it's fred vasseur." the boy told linnea, eyes wide. "well, pick it up! speaker please." she ordered him.

he clicked the accept button, immediately putting it on speaker, "goodmorning oliver, i hope i didn't wake you up." the older man spoke through the phone. "goodmorning mr. vasseur, you didn't wake me up, all good." ollie replied, keeping eyecontact with the girl in front of him.

"that's great, but i've got some news and a favour to ask of you, mr. bearman." fred said, french accent very prominent. "yeah sure, what is it?" the boy asked. "well, carlos went to the hospital last night with complains about stomach aches. they found out he has appendicitis." the frenchman told them.

"oh lord, is he okay now?" the teen boy asked, worried. "yes, he's alright. they're going to preform surgery on him today but, as you can guess, he can't drive this weekend." fred laid out for him.

"right." ollie replied, having a feeling where this was going. "i wanted to ask you, do you want to make your debut in formula one this weekend?"
