She happily talks about how great it has been, even teasing me about a driver who won’t leave her alone.
Everyone has been welcoming her in the paddock, and she shines when talking about all the excitement she’s now part of. Star News is a great platform to start your career in media, and I’m sure Jessica has worked hard to earn that spot.
They’rea small, respected team that reports on facts rather than gossip. As the competition for major stories has intensified, Star News has never compromised its integrity.
“Don’t you want to be more in front of the camera, though?” I’ve been watching her and her team, and I’ve noticed that Jessica mainly stands behind the camera during interviews.
Being as beautiful and knowledgeable as she is, they would benefit from putting her in front of the camera, I’m sure of it.
“I’m certain I’ll get there in time, but for now I’m really happy with how everything is turning out.” I’m confident Jessica will succeed in this field; she has the drive and ambition to do great things in her life.
The way she carries herself with confidence, yet also with modesty for her opportunities and the people she meets along the way, is admirable.
She talks about Star News and its team with awe and gratitude in her voice.
“How about you, hotshot? How is it sitting behind the wheel of a car going 300-400 km per hour?” she asks me, and I see my opening.
“You think I’m hot?” I smirk and look over at her just as she rolls her eyes at me. I’m no stranger to compliments, but having Jessica acknowledgemy looks and what she thinks gives a boost I haven’t felt before.
“Of course, that’s the only part you heard.” She surprises me again by not being shy or awkward, but just owning our attraction to one another. I chuckle before giving my answer.
“It’s exhilarating, and my dream come true. I always felt that this is the place I want to be: behind the wheel, pushing myself to the limits of what feels possible, while also being part of a bigger team working towards the same goal.” I continue telling Jessica that even though I’m alone in the car, it feels like a team effort whenever we bring home a win or a good result.
I started in the sister team to BMW when I first got my break into F1.
As soon as they saw potential in me, they gave me the opportunity of a lifetime, and I never looked back. I signed with BMW, a top team, and although the results haven’t yet put us at the top, we’re getting closer every day.
We can all sense it and feel it coming.
When we win that championship, it will be the result of several years of hard work and teamwork.
We are nearing the outskirts of the city, and I turn the car to start climbing some hills that overlook Baku City.
“Yeah,and your team certainly liked winning toward the end of last season.” She knows the grid like the back of her hand. Another thing I’ve noticed about her: she’s got the beauty but also the brains. Having someone who understands the dynamics of F1 and how this world works is refreshing.
“Yeah, I like winning in all sorts of things,” I tell her, and she chuckles at that.
I’m being really cheesy with her, but I just can’t help myself. It feels natural being around her, so effortless and good.
We arrive at the spot I’ve picked out, and I take a small black scarf to tie around her eyes.
“Really, Casanova? You’re going to blindfold me?” I chuckle.
“I don’t trust that you won’t peek.” She turns away from me and lets me tie the scarf around her head. Her hair feels soft in my hands, and she lets out a small sigh as I tighten the scarf. I step out of the car and feel my nerves spike.
When was the last time I wanted to impress a girl this badly?
I can’t remember a time when I was this nervous, which is saying a lot, given what I do for a living.
Usually, I would take a girl to a fancy restaurant, and that would be it. Many times, they wouldn’t even want a full date, just some time in bed with a F1 driver.
But I knew with Jessica, I needed to try a different approach if I wanted to get to know her better.
The most important thing is giving us privacy.
I also want to show her that I’m sorry about the whole douche act I’ve put up with her in our first meetings.
I want her to get to know me and for me to get to know her.
