Lonely. | Lando Norris

Sunrises

"What are you doing out here?" Abbie's voice stirs me from my peaceful slumber. The soft surface I lay upon dips as she slides in beside me. I roll to my side groaning at her intrusion. She wraps her arms around me pulling me to her body.

"Couldn't sleep" my voice husky, Ibiza finally taking its toll. 

"Too distracted thinking about carved by angels boy?" She taunts, her voice playful.

How..

"How did you..I mean I don't know what you're talking about" I huff, pulling the duvet up over my head.

"I saw the pair of you, just in front of the exit, looking so longingly into each others eyes, has someone actually been able to get past that 'I hate men' facade" she dips her head down under the covers too as I turn to face her.

"Clearly you had too much to drink, or you would have realised I was telling him to back the fuck off" I grunt. "I've told you, I have no interest in men, they take what they want from you and throw you aside with nothing to give"

"Oh some of them have plenty to give Kayla, trust me" she winks trying to keep the atmosphere light.

"I'll take your word for it, is there anything else floating around in that brain of yours bar boys and their cocks" I laugh at her.

She pretends to think for a moment making me giggle "hmm not really no".

"Least you're honest about it abs" I chuckle.

Her eyes fill with sadness as she tucks a strand of hair behind my ear "are you ever going to let me into that head of yours?"

I grab her hand, interlocking our fingers "you wouldn't want to be in here, trust me, it's all dark and twisty" I laugh but it doesn't meet my eyes. Wanting to keep the old me away from my new life.

"I can be dark and twisty" she mumbles and this time my laughter is completely free.
"It's okay abs, I'm fine, stay your carefree happy self" I kiss her forehead. I appreciate her more than I could ever show her. She came into my life when I needed her most, and never left no matter how hard I am to be around at times. But I've been doing better and that's all I want to focus on right now.

"Now, tell me about the Spaniard" I poke and her mood completely changes. "How did you know he was Spanish?" She quizzes me. "Not sure really, was an educated guess" I shrug my shoulders as she delves into her escapades with her new beau. From what I gather she's really into this guy, which is strange. Usually she's a sort of fuck and chuck girl, in the 4 years I've known her not once have I seen a guy last more than a week. She tells me that after their little romp, they spent the night talking, he only just left moments before she climbed in beside me and they've agreed to meet up tonight again in the club.

I groan internally at the thought of another night spent wasting away in a queue, "please tell me he wants to meet at a different place"

The smile spreading across her face tells me all I need to know. As I roll over onto my stomach, burying my head into my pillow.

I must have fallen asleep, but yet again I'm awoken by my annoying best friend.

"Okay Kayla that's enough sleeping for one day, let's go, my Spanish prince awaits" she slaps my ass hard and I yelp as she giggles.

"Why don't you just head on out to your Spanish prince then, oops a bit of sick just nearly came out there repeating that" I fake gag at her choice of words earning me an eye roll in return.

"Becauseeee I want you to meet him" she whines.

"Abs come on, I met him last night, and you're probably never going to see him again anyway so what would be the point" I groan back at her.
