So I turn around and walk up the stairs, leaving behind the girl I want to be with.

Knowing I’m doing the right thing, as my heart hollows and I become numb.

I leave fifty sunflowers in her room that night.

To Blondie,

Fifty sunflowers for the fifty reasons why you’re my favorite person.

Below those words, written on the note are the lyrics to“Sabor A Mi.”

Chapter61

Violetta

ME: Thank you for the flowers.

SUNSHINE: I’m so proud of you Vio, even though I was watching from afar I need you to know that. The final was one of the best I’ve seen, you fought till the end. Your next grand slam final I know you’ll win<3

Fame, fortune, celebrity, and prestige.

Those words encapsulate the Monaco Grand Prix in a nutshell.

It’s the Wimbledon of Formula One in a way and every driver wants to win this Grand Prix at least once in their career.

But very few do; it’s an increasingly difficult track to maneuver.

That much I know.

I knew from first glance. The sharp turns, narrow streets, and elevation changes keep the viewer on the edge of their seat.

Having attended almost every year, I’ve seen too many crashes to count.

“He’ll be fine, Vio. Don’t worry, he’s driven this track so many times that it’s imprinted in his brain,” Cleo reassures me.

This year, I thought it would be fun to bring the twins along, not only to keep an eye on me but also because it’s a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

Yachts line the straightway, people flock around celebrities, and Formula One drivers take in the buzz.

“I know, but I’ve never been worried about him before. I just don’t want him to crash.” I’m upset with myself for worrying too much.

But it’s only natural.

I like him, maybe even more than that.

The thought of his body pushing into a wall while inside a minuscule seat flashes through my mind. He risks his life for a living and it’s starting to worry me.

Before, I didn’t even flinch about Ale putting herself in the same danger.

Does that make me a bad friend?

The sport has always sent a thrill down my spine, but now fear flashes through my head like memories. It’s obviously Xavier’s doing.

“Oh my God. Stop, Vio. Exodus Wolf is currently a few steps away from me and he’s talking to Xavier.” Cleo is freaking out.

Her celebrity crush slash idol is practically standing next to her.

Cleo’s eyes are wide, staring at me in shock and exhilaration. One thing I do know is that I plan on her talking to him. Xavier won’t mind and quite frankly what big sister would I be if I didn’t embarrass her in front of the man of her dreams?
