I’m going back to the trailer tonight. It’s the pre-race night and I don’t want to be in Elliott’s way. But also, although I love Elliott I don’t want to cast myself out on the sideline of the team. It would be so easy to be in his pocket the whole time and not give myself the opportunity to make bonds with my colleagues. I want to be part of their family and so on the evening before tomorrow’s race, I’m spending it with them and giving him his head space to focus however he needs.
We’re around the fire eating, drinking water, and singing to Ryan’s guitar. It’s an evening not dissimilar to most others when we’re out on the road, but tonight, I’m thinking about how far life has moved forward in only a few short months. I remember Elliott coming and sitting down with me my first night, oh and what happened after...
It feels like a lifetime ago and yet the seasons have barely changed.
“Do you know Elliott’s ex, Noah?” I ask Jessie.
“No, not really. But I hear he’s a good racer too. I think he’s one of those fighting for the spare place they’re trialling for in the other team.”
I pause, letting the information sink in. “Is he here this weekend then?”
“I don’t know. Do you want me to find out?”
“Sure, if it’s no problem.”
“It’s just a quick call with Lynn the other PR. She’ll be up to speed on who is around and when.” She stares into the fire, watching as the flames flicker against a log in the last stages of the world in its current form. “Why do you ask?”
“He’s been texting Elliott. It’s nothing, but it just made me curious.”
She nods and needs no further explanation.
“I’m going to turn in; get an early night. Tomorrow is massive for me. I’d like to come out of the other side of it without some terrible accident.”
She laughs. “Good idea, I’d like you to come out of it without being involved in some terrible accident and that’s from both a personal and a professional perspective.”
“I guess there was a bit of PR needed managing to explain that one away.” I stand, straighten my shorts, and head off toward the shared trailer with a smile on my face.
All the noise is around the fire. As soon as you move away it grows cold in both temperature and atmosphere. Anyone not here is focusing on tomorrow.
That’s why, when I see a figure hanging around in the woods by the entrance, it’s not so much of a big deal. People gathering their thoughts spend time alone and run through all number of procedures to ensure their head is in the place they need it.
Something about those eyes makes me look twice, though. When I turn my head to take a second glance, there’s no one there. I carry on walking up the steps into the trailer, but as I open the door I stop. Shivers run down my spine. Call it a sixth sense, but something isn’t right.
