As weeks pass by the sexual tension starts growing between Lando and I. It's undeniable but I brush it off, it's technically illegal I tell myself, the contract said no. I walk to Lando's hotel room to make sure he is ready for the race. I knock on the door and wait, there's no answer. I knock again impatiently. Still no answer. "Lando Norris if I open this door and you are still sleeping I will kick your ass straight out of that bed" I say while opening the door. To my surprise Lando was not still asleep. "I'm so sorry omg" I turn and walk with embarrassment. I can't believe I just walked in on that. He was in bed with another girl, so was the sexual tension all in my head. I didn't want to over think the situation so I shoot Lando a text.
"Sorry about that I didn't realize you had company but you really need to get going meet me at the lobby ASAP" - y/n. 9:33am
"Didn't realize the time my bad see you soon"- Lando. 9:35am
As I wait for Lando to come down I scroll through my socials and catch up on some emails. Lando walks up behind you "ready to go". I giggle "I've been ready a lot longer than you." "Your not funny you muppet." Lando replied trying not to laugh. As we get to the track I run through his schedule with him one last time. 10am- breakfast 11am- meeting 12pm- interview with sky 1pm- warm up 2pm- lights out 3:30-4pm- interviews Lando looks at me with a discussed looked on his face. "Really?" He questioned. "Yes really..." I answer with a confused face. "Ughhh I don't have the energy for this shit today." Lando pouted. I smirk "maybe if you slept for longer and didn't waste it all this morning you'd be fine but I mean that's none of my business." Lando gives me a sly look. I laugh. As I wait impatiently on the McLaren pit wall for lights out I get a notification that one of Lando's interviews fr after the race has been canceled due to someone being sick. I reply letting them know it was ok and wishing wellness on the ill person. "And it's lights out and away we go" Lando gets a good start and everyone is happy. He placed p3 for most of the race up until the last 5 laps when Max and Lewis crash into each other. Everyone was ok and the track was cleared. The drives came to the pit lane as there was a red flag. The team informed Lando he would be p1 and to try and hold this position. Just before the drives head out to track for the last few laps Lando comes over to me. "Hey quickly before I go can I have a word?"-L "Ya for sure what's wrong"-Y/n "I amm I don't know how to say this but I just need to ask.. are you mad over what happened this morning?"-L "What do you mean why would I be mad ? Because you where 5 minutes late? It's not that big of a deal you've been a lot later before"- Y/n. "No because of-" He gets pulled away before he finishes his sentence as it's 3 minutes until he's back on track. I get confused trying to understand what he means. The race is over and Lando wins for the 1st time this season. He goes to the podium and the whole team celebrated. There is a formal celebration at the hotel later and the whole team is invited to celebrate Landos win. It is formal dress, you either wear a suit or a formal dress. I go back to the hotel and get ready I wear this:

I go to landos hotel room to get him as i have to go with him due to the job agreement. I knock on his and to my surprise this time he answers it. He stands looking at me with a shocked sort of worried look on his face. "Are you ok you look like you've seen a ghost?" I question. Lando shakes the look off his face "ya ya I'm good I've just never seen you dressed up before, your always in your uniform." I get worried "oh do I look bad? Do I need to change? We have time still I can change I have another orange outfit I can wear." Lando puts his hand on my arm to calm me down " don't change I like the dress and it fits the occasion, plus we are forced to wear team colours to this and it's orange so you'll fit right in" I start to feel better after he comforts me "So you ready" I ask "Nearly I just need to brush my teeth you can come in and wait"-L I walk in and sit on the chair next to the bathroom door. Landos phone buzzes a questionable amount of times. "Lando I know your famous and all but that seems quite important"-Y/n "I don't think it is but cheek it if you want"-L I pick up his phone and realize it's the girl from this morning spamming him on Instagram. She has sent him 276 DM's in the past 4 hours. He hasn't replied to any of them. "Why are you ignoring her"-Y/n. "I'm not she's just, it was like me and you you know, just a one night thing but she seems to have got attacked and I don't feel the same way for her"-L "Us ?? A one night thing, boy you must be a fool. A one night thing that I have to boss around every day of the week"- y/n. "But you know what I mean... sexually just a one time thing"-L I stay quite because yes it was just once but I'm hoping it doesn't stay that way. Lando noticed I'm quite "I'm sorry I didn't mean it like that I feel like I've offended you" "Oh no I get it just a hit and miss kinda thing ya all guys are the same. Just messing with girls feelings to get what they want for one night, like girls aren't worth more than one night of there time"y/n. "Y/n... really ? That's what you think I'm like. Wow ok then." -L "That's what I know your like, anyways you ready to go"-y/n. "Mhm" lando replies bluntly
We go to the celebration and go our separate ways independently after going in. I start to overthink the situation between lando and I so I leave early and go back to my room. I get back to my hotel room and lay straight on the bed feeling overwhelmed and stressed. I put my AirPods in and play "please notice by Christian leave" on repeat. Thinking about my feelings for lando, all the memories we have made both at work and in private, I feel the tears stream down my face as I realize he's right. It was just a one night thing, I need to get over it, but for tonight. Tonight I'm letting myself let my emotions out because I am tired of bottling them up. I don't fight the tears as I let them stream down my cheeks carrying mascara with them. After what feels like hours I look over at my hotel room door as it opens and the light from the hallway fills my room. I pull out my AirPods. "Hello?" I say questionably "It's me, lando... I knocked a few times but you didn't answer, and you gave me your spare key so I used it." "What are you doing here" you say as the door shuts behind him and the room returns to darkness "I was looking for you and no one has seen you all night, I was wanted to make sure you where ok"-L "Ya I'm all good so you can go now" I say while turning to the window away from him in fear he would see my running mascara and bloodshot eyes "Ya sure but here before I go this is yours" he has my phone charger "Leave it on the bed" I say unwilling to turn around and face him. "Y/n....? Are you ok you haven't even looked at me since I came in, did I do something" he says with a worrier tone "Nope just like look at sky like I said before, I have an insane obsession" I say as more tears fall from my eyes.
I hear his footsteps slowly get closer to me and I panic. "I said leave lando"I snap ".... am ya sorry" he turns around and leaves shutting the door behind him.
