Daniel Ricciardo
🦡|| Daniel is your best friend, but when he became a Formula 1 driver, your contact became limited. Daniel came to a Formula 3 race where you are a driver and caught you smoking.Daniel wandered through the paddock, the buzz of the F3 circuit bringing back memories of his early racing days. The smell of rubber and gasoline hung in the air, mingling with the faint scent of fresh asphalt under the hot sun. He was here to support the up-and-coming drivers, but there was one person in particular he was looking for: his childhood best friend, now an F3 driver herself. She had always been his partner in crime on the track, even if he had unintentionally drifted away as his F1 career took off.
As he approached the back of one of the garages, he caught sight of her. But something was off. She stood there, shoulders slumped, looking exhausted with dark circles under her eyes that makeup couldn't hide. A cigarette dangled between her fingers as she took a long drag, exhaling a cloud of smoke that curled upward in the still air. Daniel's heart sank – she had promised him she would never smoke, not with her racing career just starting.
He walked up to her, his footsteps silent against the concrete until he was only a few feet away. Disappointment was written clearly across his face. "Hey," he called out, his voice a mix of concern and frustration that cut through the ambient noise of the circuit. "What are you doing?"
She turned sharply, her eyes widening in surprise when she recognized him. Her hand instinctively moved to hide the cigarette behind her back as she quickly stubbed it out on the ground with her shoe, but the evidence was already there. "Daniel, I-“ she began, her voice trailing off as she searched for an explanation.
He cut her off, shaking his head slightly as he crossed his arms. "You promised me you wouldn't do this. Why?" The question hung in the air between them, heavier than the exhaust fumes from the nearby cars. The roar of an engine testing on the track echoed in the distance, but seemed muted compared to the tension of this moment.
