“I think it's better if we stop seeing each other.”

Y/N frowned slightly. She was under Max's arm, lying on the bed in the hotel in Imola.

“We’re on the same team, Maxie. We see each other all the time,” she said, completely oblivious to what Max was saying. She even smiled a little.

“I mean this,” Max sat up, forcing her to do the same. He swallowed a bit. “I think we should stop sleeping together.”

Y/N pressed her lips together and wiped the trace of sweat from her forehead. “Oh,” was all she could articulate as she chewed over that sentence. “Why?”

“For our careers,” he said immediately, as if he had it premeditated. “There are already a lot of rumors, if this got out…”

“What?” That didn’t make any sense. “We've been sleeping together for over a year, and now all of a sudden you're worried about rumors. Don’t bullshit me, Max. What the hell is wrong with you?” Y/N felt around the edge of the bed, searching for her underwear.

“I'm telling you, this is affecting our careers.”

Y/N clicked her tongue and stood up, finishing getting dressed. “Bullshit, Max. When you want to tell me what's really going on, let me know.”

Y/N left the room, slamming the door. Max leaned back, knowing that Y/N was right. It wasn’t about their careers, but about the pressure. His father and the rest of the team were pressuring him to have a relationship with a model, and YN was an obstacle in that equation.

Max never explained anything to her. They stopped seeing each other outside of work environments and even while working, they avoided each other as much as possible. Y/N refused to feel hurt. It wasn’t a breakup because there was nothing to break. In the end, they were just two teammates with too much sexual tension to satisfy. Even if that tension lasted a year and a half, three vacations together, a Christmas dinner, and countless private dates.

Y/N was determined to move on, focusing on her job, fighting for the title, and maybe—just maybe—accepting that date with Carlos at the end of the season.

But Max had other ideas, because two weeks after the breakup, the pages were on fire because finally, someone had conquered the cold heart of Max Verstappen. He and a woman nine years older had been seen dining and kissing in Monaco.

She was surprised, that was the last thing she expected from Max. Nine years older than him. Y/N couldn't help but dig a little, stalking her profile and seeing how pretty she was. That really hurt, had it meant so little to him?

Y/N flew to Monaco alone when she used to go in Max's private jet. From then on, she realized how much Max was in her routine. Arriving at her apartment, she found it cold with the plants dried up; she hardly had any clothes there. She knew she’d have to write to Max to get her things back, but she delayed it as long as possible—which wasn’t long. Y/N wrote to her friends to see if they wanted to go out, but no one responded; she hadn't written to them in over four months.

She spent that night alone at home, looking at her phone every now and then without expecting any messages. She found herself drinking and then went out for a walk, desperate to feel something. The next morning, photos of her were out, looking horrible with traces of mascara under her eyes. She also woke up to a simple message from Max:

Can we meet?

They agreed to meet at her apartment, Y/N knew the way almost with her eyes closed.

“Good morning,” said Max. He looked as usual, shorts and a t-shirt, a bit of gel in his hair, and clean-shaven.

“Hello,” Y/N said, clearing her throat. She stood still at the door until Max motioned for her to come in.

“Come in, please,” he said calmly. She nodded and entered, looking for traces of that woman, though the apartment still smelled of her perfume.

“Is she not here?” she asked, turning on her heels to look at him.

“No. That's what I wanted to talk to you about.”

Y/N raised an eyebrow. “You want to talk to me about your girlfriend?”

“She’s not my girlfriend.”

She let out a laugh, the same thing she had told her friends at a dinner while he had a hand almost reaching her inner thigh.

“You never have girlfriends, do you?”

“Y/N, it’s not what you think.”

She crossed her arms. “You know what I think? I think you’re a hypocrite. A damn hypocrite who, because I didn’t suit him, found someone easier.”

Max approached Y/N. “It’s PR, they forced me.”

“They forced you?” she let out a painful laugh. “Did they force you before or after ending things with us?”

Max stayed silent. They had pressured him, but the final decision had been his. He couldn’t find a way to explain himself. That silence meant everything to Y/N.

“You're pathetic. Totally pathetic.”

“Y/N, I’m sor-” he took half a step towards her but backed off immediately.

“Bullshit,” Y/N exploded. “Do you think apologizing is enough? You treated me like a fucking toy, damn it.”

“I didn't… I never wanted to hurt you,” Max choked on his words.

“But neither did you want to treat me well.”

Max stayed silent, feeling like the stupidest man on earth. He wanted to shout that she was the best thing that had happened to him in a long time while kissing her until he ran out of breath. But he said nothing. Y/N looked away with a long sigh.

“I’m going to collect my clothes,” she said, clearly disappointed in her voice. She hoped that Max would follow her, not let her pack her things and beg her to stay. That he’d tell her she was worthy of love.

Max waited, sitting on his couch, running his hands over his face, searching for the words.

Y/N came out of the room and walked past the living room, intending to leave without saying goodbye.

“I'll break up with Kelly,” Max stood up, stopping her with his words.

“Do you think that will help? You’ll still hide me as if you’re ashamed.”

“Y/N…” He couldn’t find the words.

“No. I'm leaving. I'm tired. Of you and all your crap.”

I am enamored with drawing this goofy ass man

#*Old grandma voice*:#What a handsome young man #I like drawing his hair and nose #I always do a little fist pump when I get em just right #I think those are the ones I have a hard time getting right #So when I do get them right I'm happy #I think the nose and hair really make him actually look like “Raz but older”#Maybe the eyes too #But mostly hair nose and headshape #I'm very proud of how these turned out anyways #They'll be part of a bigger illustration I might complete later #Doodles rants #psychonauts au #psychonauts #psychonauts 2 #razputin aquato #psychonauts future

Spirit was making another animatic in the whiteboard last night and I drew this alongside it because getting jumpscared by Lydia the Bard lyrics in the whiteboard sparked sone kind of quick adrenaline in me

Bonus version but with the red goggles instead of their glasses because I brainfarted while coloring but still think it looks cool:

#dreams of an insomniac #alex williams #lyrical art #veldigun!alex #eyes tw #rule the quiet #lydia the bard #doodle’s art #my stuffs #<- actually i think imma start using that tag for my own original posts now #this blog is VERY rb heavy and i feel like a proper organization tag like a ''mine'' sort of tag would benefit #very proud of how the hand turned out btw i love how i'm getting better at hands more often <333

HEYY ⭐

Firstly, I want to thank you for the last chapter you posted because even though it broke and tortured my heart, it's the third time I've reread it. Seriously.

Second, and that's really random, I just wanted to ask if you've watched "weak hero class" or if you intend to watch it. I know you're busy so I understand if you haven't watched it or don't want to! But if one day you do want to see it I would love your perspective on the drama ☀️

Third, and this is also a bit random, since when did you start drawing? Your drawings are wonderful.

Hi there! 💜

That's some serious level of masochism right there x'D But I'm glad you enjoyed the chapter! It was a painful one for everyone involved, I'd say, but I AM glad that it's finally out there. I've been waiting for this moment for a long, long time and now I can finally start building towards Ga On accepting his feelings and sexuality. Which I really look forward to! :D

As for Weak Hero Class, it is on my list of things to watch, yes! I just don't know when I'll get to it. I've heard a lot of good things about it, but I also understand that it's pretty heavy? And I just haven't been in the mood for that. But I definitely plan to watch it eventually :D

It's a little difficult to pinpoint exactly when I started drawing because I always have? Like, even at seven years old I was good at drawing and so I just kept doing it (also helped by the fact that my big sister, whom I idolised, also chose it as her hobby and I wanted to copy her). But I tend to say that I was around 14-15 when I started getting SERIOUS about drawing. So 20 years ago now.

I actually did a summary of my art over on my drawing Tumblr, featuring works from the past 20 years.

Though, I won't lie, sometimes I can't help but wonder if I could have gotten further, much faster, if I'd gone to art school or actually put some organised effort into improving my art. I DID go to an art school for one year back when I was 23, just for funsies (mostly to learn other techniques), but I'm basically self-taught aside from that and I never really had a good strategy for how to practice. Which I think slowed my progress down a lot.

But yeah! I started around 20 years ago, when I was 14-15 :)

#Amethystina Replies #Anonymous #I want to point out that I'm still very proud of my art #I just can't help but wonder if I could have been even BETTER #If I'd prioritised it over other things #BUT on the other hand I'm pretty satisfied with how the rest of my life turned out #So I'm not sure if I would actually change it if I could go back xD
