The Lion and The Bull - Max Verstappen

Chapter 7 - Yes

Max rested his hand on the steering wheel and sprawled out in his seat. "Are you done?" She looked over at him with a harsh look. "OK OK. Just asking." She closed the small sun shade mirror and straightened her dress out. "Ok, you can drive now." He took in her beauty as she sat in his driver seat and said, "What do you need to look so good for?" "I don't know, maybe I'll kiss someone tonight," She said with a smirk. "Whoever it is is a lucky man," He said and couldn't help but slip a smile. They drove for about 15 minutes before they arrived at the house. The house was already full of people and expensive cars lined the road. Max pulled up as close as he could and parked the car. "All right, ready?" Max asked and gave a breath of readiness. She nodded her head and began to open the door before Max put his hand on hers and said, "Let me get it for you." She gave him a look of disbelief but he got out and went around the car and opened her door. "Madam," he said and stuck out his hand for her to take. She looked up at him through her eyebrows and smiled as she took his hand. He closed the door behind her and she held his arm as they walked up to the house. The door to the mansion was already open and they could hear the loud music as they walked up the long u-shaped driveway. "AYYYY Max!" someone shouted. Everyone's heads turned to the door as the two walked in. Cecilia instantly dropped his arm and tried to just smile as everyone stared. Max waved to the people that he knew but soon grabbed Cecilia's hand and pulled her into the center of the mass of people. "Max. All these people are going to think that we are dating," Cecilia yelled into his ear over the loud music. "Fuck what they think. We are here to have fun," Max said and pulled her over to the bar. Max said something to the bartender and he came back with two drinks a moment later. He handed one to Cecilia and she smiled a thank you. Just as Cecilia took a sip of her drink, Louis walked up to them. "There's the winning couple," he said with slurred words. Max and Cecilia could tell that he was hammered and so they did not try to refute it but simply gave each other an inferring look. "How are you doing?" Cecilia asked Louis, trying to speak as loud as she could. "Im doing great. Have you guys fucked yet?" Louis said so seriously that Max and Cecilia both lost it. They both bent over in laughter that Cecilia had to hold onto Max's arm to not fall over. "What? I thought you two were a couple?" Louis said and took another sip of his drink which he definitely did not need. "Louis we are not dating," Max finally said after they regained their breaths. "Oh. Well sorry about that," Louis said and burped. "Well I better get going. There's a stripper from Lebanon here that I want to meet." Max and Cecilia both waved bye to him and turned back to each other. "Holy shit he needs to stop drinking," Cecilia laughed. "At first I wasn't going to correct him but then he asked if we were fucking and I lost my shit. You looked at me and I couldn't stop laughing." They both laughed. They both began to dance and were beginning to get a little drunk. Cecilia struggled to stay upright as she danced and so Max held onto her to keep her from falling into the crowd of people. In the far side of the room they could see someone standing on a table and it was only until they heard his voice from the speakers that they realized that it was Lando Norris. "Hello everyone I hope you are all having a great night." Everyone cheered and Max and Cecilia were pushed towards where Lando was standing. "I wanted to devote this party to whoever won and today it happened to be Max Verstappen. And so mate, this one's for you." Lando put the mic down and pierced a hole in a can of beer and shotgunned it. "Hit it Danny." Cecilia looked over to Max and saw his face of horror as the song Du Du Du Du Max Verstappen came on. She immediately died of laughter and started singing along to it as she watched Max's embarrassment. He took a drink off of the table in front of them and chugged it then joined Cecilia in her dancing. Everyone was singing along and jumping to the music. Max could not believe that he was doing this right now. With anyone else he would have refused but he didn't feel the need to impress her and so he just had fun. The song ended and Max had to catch Cecilia as she was dying of laughter. "How in the world did they make that song for you? She managed to say through coughs of laughter. "What do you mean? It is the most amazing song ever?" Max joked. She finally stopped laughing and tried to steady herself to get a good look at his face. "Has anyone ever told you that you have really nice lips?" He almost laughed but said, "No, no one has." She smiled and he continued, "Has anyone ever told you that you have beautiful eyes?" "No," She said in almost a whisper. He grabbed her hand and pulled her through the crowded room. She didn't even care where she was going, partly because she was drunk and partly because she trusted him. He pulled her up the stairs in the back corner and down the hall. They stopped in the small landing where a couple of other people were standing talking. "Cecilia," Max said almost out of breath. "Yes," she answered. He studied her face and then her body as the moonlight shone through the windows. She smiled as his eyes lingered back up to hers. "Cecilia, can I kiss you?" He said and smiled softly. She couldn't help but smile and said, "Yes." He slowly took his hand out of hers and placed it on her cheek. She placed hers on his shoulder and leaned closer. They both leaned into each other until their lips touched. They both lit up with smiles as they pulled out of their soft kiss. After a pause, Cecilia said, "Your lips feel really nice too." Max rolled his eyes and pulled her closer to him. "I have wanted to do that since f3." "Oh I know," She said with a sly smile and leaned in to kiss him. They kissed but this time it was more than the first. He put his arms around her hip as if he had been waiting to touch her for an eternity. She put one hand on his face and draped the other one over his shoulder. Max leaned into the kiss until they were pressed up on the wall. He was now grasping her dress in one hand and holding her head in his other. Cecilia grabbed Max's face and she said, "Let's save the rest of that for when we are not at a party." She gave him a wink and took his hand in hers. They both could not stop smiling as they walked back down the stairs to the rest of the party. Max went to grab them both drinks and told her to wait there. As soon as Max left, Charlotte walked up to her. "Hey Cecilia! I don't think we've spoken in a while. How are you?" She said. "I'm doing great other than the fact that I am hammered right now." Cecilia said and tried not to slur her words. "I don't want to get in your business but are you and Max dating?" she said and leaned into her so that no one else could hear what they were saying. Cecilia gave a small laugh and said, "Not that I am aware of." She wasn't completely lying. Although she was just making out with him about 5 minutes prior. Max came back with the drinks and handed Cecilia a drink then wrapped his arm around her waist. Charlotte gave her a look of disbelief as she looked at the hand resting on her waist. "Hello Charlotte," Max said. "Oh hey Max. I need to go. It was so nice talking to you both," she said and hurried off back into the crowd. "What was that about? What did you say to her?" Max said, confused. Cecilia laughed and said, "She asked me if we were dating." "And what did you say?" "I told her 'not that I am aware of' and she gave me the most shocked look when you came back and put your arm around my waist," She said and put her hand on the hand that he had rested on her waist. He squeezed her dress where his hand laid and gave her a smile. "She probably had some friend that was interested in you and wanted to make sure that I was not in the way," Cecilia said. "Well, now they know that I have been blocked from bitches by the finest woman in f1," Max said and pulled her around to face him. "You are the only girl I have ever wanted in my way." Cecilia grabbed the collar of his shirt and said, "Oh? Is that right." Max was so taken aback from her clutch that he had no words so he just smiled and nodded. She gave him a seducing stare and pulled him down towards her and only this time she did not shy away from kissing him. She held him in the kiss and he placed his hands on her waist and pulled her closer to him. He did not care anymore what the other people at the party would think. He only cared about her. She let go of his shirt and smiled as he opened his eyes from the kiss. "You wanna get out of here?" Max asked. He already knew her response but she still said, "Yes."
