"Leave me alone..." (680 words)
---
"Esteban," she frowned at her French boyfriend as he slammed the door of the motorhome shut. "It wasn't your fault, honey."
"It was totally my fault," Esteban mumbled under his breath as he grabbed a bottle of water from the mini-fridge and sat down on the couch. There was a permanent frown etched on his face as he took a large sip from the bottle before he set it down on the table in front.
"Everybody has their off days at times," Y/N spoke up as she softly played with his raven hair; trying to cheer him up and get him to smile a little bit. "But, you'll bounce back from this tomorrow, I am very sure of this."
"Yeah, that is if the car functions properly." The Frenchman rolled his eyes and stood up from the couch before he grudgingly walked to his bedroom. She sighed in defeat as soon as the door slammed shut, which made her worried about how emotional he was feeling.
Quietly strolling up to the door, she pressed her ears against the door, only to hear Esteban punch his pillow several times. Having enough of Esteban moping around, she banged her fist against the metal door, wanting to help him.
"Esteban, please let me in!" Y/N knocked on the door and wanted to go inside the room to comfort him. "Honey, I don't want you to suffer..."
"Leave me alone!" He answered back to her question as tears started to fall down his cheeks. Y/N couldn't bear to see and hear him tear himself apart anymore, which made her unlock the door somehow and open the door.
"Esteban," she spoke in a soft tone, not wanting to aggravate his anger any further, "yes, you had a bad qualifying session today..."
"What a way to make me feel better, sweetheart," the Frenchman rolled his eyes at her, which made Y/N shake her head at his negative personality.
"I was going to say," she sent him a glare as she wanted to finish her sentence. "But, you are working every day and night to improve yourself as a driver and as a person. Use this bad experience as a lesson to learn in what areas you need to improve on."
Esteban had a small smile on his face as he listened to Y/N's encouragement speech, which to be honest, made him feel a bit better. He still felt awful about today's qualifying sessions, but he knew it was something to learn from.
"Alright, that made feel a little relieved," he chuckled and wiped away the tears that were banking in his eyes. "I'm sorry for lashing out at you like that, I shouldn't have treated you like that."
"As long as you won't do it again," she winked playfully at her boyfriend as she joined him in bed and placed a kiss on his pink lips, smiling at the fact that her boyfriend was happy once again. "It's fine that you yelled at me, you were just in a bad mood, that's all."
"I truly am the luckiest man in the world to have a wonderful girlfriend like you, ma chérie," Esteban smiled from ear-to-ear as he kissed his girlfriend on the lips; feeling thankful for making him calm down and feel better. "I love you so much, sweetheart."
"And, I'm lucky to have such a wonderful boyfriend like you, mon cœur," Y/N chuckled to herself as she reached over the tall Frenchman to turn off the lights. "I love you too, darling, but we should sleep; we got a big day ahead of us tomorrow..."
