"Ri, Ri."
I turned around to see Izzy speed walking to me. I closed my iPad as I went to meet her. She put her hands on my shoulder and fear started to build into my chest.
"Iz.."
"Lando got P17."
"Oh."
"He looks pissed."
I nodded. "Where is he?"
Izzy didn't even get the chance to say as Lando stormed past both of us and in the direction of the drivers room. I sighed and said a quiet thank you to Izzy before grabbing my water and following him back there.
I knocked on the door. "Lan."
I didn't hear anything and slowly opened it. He was sitting on the floor with his head in his hands and I could hear the soft intake of his breathing. It felt like he was crying but I didn't want to assume anything.
"Lan." He didn't look up or speak. "Do you want me to sit with you?"
He nodded and I carefully took the spot to his right. I set the water between his legs so he could see it but he didn't move to reach for it. I laid my head on his shoulder, offering a bit of comfort while not knowing if he wanted any.
"Do you want to talk about-"
I didn't get the chance to finish my sentence as I was pulled into a hug. I let out a little noise at the surprise but relaxed after a second. His head was tucked into my neck and I started to rub circles on his back. We stayed like that for a minute and I didn't move, knowing he didn't want to let go. He would move when he was ready and right now, this was where we needed to be.
"I'm sorry.."
"Lan, what are you sorry for?"
He leaned back, wiping at his face as if I cared about the tears. He tried to force a smile but it wasn't all there.
"I didn't mean to lose it like that." He let out a dry chuckle.
I shook my head, leaning forward to push some of his sweat damp hair off his forehead. "You wanted to do well. And it hurts when you don't."
"I'm still sorry for losing it."
"Trust me, I've had worse breakdowns over smaller things."
He snorted and I smiled, happy there was some part of that happy boy back. "I would have paid to see that."
"I once threw my pointe shoes so hard I shattered a mirror. Surprising part was my pointe shoes went unscathed."
"Oh, that's intense." He took the water and chugged a bit of it. "I about shattered my helmet today."
"I like that helmet."
"You'll like my Singapore one a lot more."
"Do I get a sneak peak?"
"Nope." He look solidified in his answer until an idea came onto his face. "But I might have something you can do."

A knock let me know that the girls were here. I smiled, finishing off my text to Lando as I opened the door. Alex and Lily were standing there with snacks.
"Ah, hi!"
I got pulled into a hug but I made sure to use my foot to hold the door open. After a second, we pulled back and Alex smiled.
"You need to tell me about this Miami."
"And you need to catch us up on all this stuff with Lando. Also this thing with you, Lando, and Max."
I rolled my eyes as we all took our spots on the floor. Alex slid a drink at me and I smiled a quick thanks as we worked on building a little snack bar.
"Okay. So Miami first. It's going to be me, Logan, Alex and you, Lily. Lando, Max F and his girlfriend, Charles and you, then Max and Kelly, Oscar and I think he said he's going to bring his girlfriend. And Dani and Heidi."
"Big group. How are we breaking it up," Alex asked as she bit down on a strawberry.
"Alex, Logan, and Lily are all going to stay at my parents house. They have more than enough space."
"Wait- why not you?"
Lily answered for me. "Riley and her mom... not on the best terms."
"Oh, I see."
I nodded. "So me, Lando, Max, and his girlfriend will stay in the condo that me and Logan own. We are getting the condo next door for you, Charles, Max and Kelly, Oscar and Lily, and Dani and Heidi."
"Honestly sounds like lots of fun."
"We're going to tear up Miami."
