Chapter Text

hey mate

 

oscar (not piastri)

What’s up?

 

not too much

i just have this really big thing going on tomorrow

like career altering event yknow

and i could use a little luck

 

oscar (not piastri)

You’re looking to me for luck?

Why not ask your coworkers

 

they’re all stressed as fuck

and plus i like you better

 

oscar (not piastri)

I’m honored

Good luck mate

 

thank you

i have a good feeling

like i went and fucked it last week but i’m not making the same mistakes this time

 

oscar (not piastri)

I’m sure it wasn’t your fault

 

it kind of was

but it’s okay

god i’m fucking stressed though

 

oscar (not piastri)

It’ll be okay

Even if you fuck up again

 

wow what faith you have in me

 

oscar (not piastri)

I’m just saying

I wouldn’t judge you if you fucked up

 

you’re probably one of the only people who wouldn’t

 

oscar (not piastri)

Really?

 

well my coworkers say they don’t but i feel like they do

but there’s a lot of people who i know judge me

just comes with the job ig

 

oscar (not piastri)

I see

That’s rough

But I know you’ll do well

 

you don’t even know what i’m doing

 

oscar (not piastri)

I know it’s important

And I know you won’t fuck it up

I believe in you

 

thanks mate

i appreciate it

 

oscar (not piastri)

Just telling the truth

 

whatever

how are things with you?

 

oscar (not piastri)

Also got something kind of big coming up

The guy I like is really stressed out about it

 

we always seem to have stuff going on at the same time lol

 

oscar (not piastri)

Funny how that works

 

it really is

how is he taking it though?

 

oscar (not piastri)

About as well as you’d expect

Keeps isolating himself which isn’t helpful

 

yeah that sounds familiar

i think you’re the only person i’ve reached out to this week

besides like. my boss

 

oscar (not piastri)

Well, I’m honored

You don’t have anyone else you can talk to?

 

i do i guess

it’s just

hard to reach out

 

oscar (not piastri)

I see

With that kind of pressure I’m sure it is

But you deserve people to help share the burden

 

 

oscar (not piastri)

You know I’m right

 

i guess

just don’t feel like i deserve it

 

oscar (not piastri)

Well that’s bullshit

You deserve it. 

 

and how do you know that?

you don’t even know what i’m doing

could be a serial killer competition

 

oscar (not piastri)

First off I don’t think that’s a thing

And secondly I just know

 

you “just know” a lot of things mate

 

oscar (not piastri)

What can I say, I’m a smart guy

 

lmfao okay osc

thank you though

i don’t know what i’d do without you lol

 

oscar (not piastri)

Well you don’t need to worry about that

I’m not going anywhere

 

even though you don’t know who i am?

 

oscar (not piastri)

That doesn’t matter to me

I know you’re a good guy

Look I have to go but if I don’t have a chance to text you, good luck okay?

You’ve got this.

 

thank you osc

good luck with your stuff too

 

oscar (not piastri)

Thanks mate
