After lunch with Daniel and his team I go home.
I change out of the dress into comfy cloths after my shower and I cuddle up in bed by myself. I put Netflix on and try not think about me and landos fight. My house is cold and lonely. Staying here alone felt wrong. It didn't feel like home anymore. I wanted to be with lando. Anywhere with him felt like home. He was my home, but right now I needed to be alone. After moments passed my phone light up. Lando texted me.

Landos pov:
After y/n left I went to bed and put on some Netflix. I didn't want to overthink what happened, i know what I said was wrong and I'll apologize to her tomorrow but for now I just wanted to be alone. After a few hours pass my phone lights up.

*you and y/n where pretty close? Any chance you have her number? -Daniel

*why do you need it? -Lando

*I don't know, she's pretty and funny. Just want to get to know her a little more! So you have it or no? -Daniel

*Nope sorry mate I don't -Lando.

My mind is racing. I can't believe he just asked me for her number. Is he insane.

*Daniel text me, asked for your number!? -lando

*ok? Did you give it to him? -Y/n

*no actually I don't think giving another boy my girls number is a great idea?! -Lando

*your girl? Since when? - Y/n

*cut the bullshit, just because I haven't asked you officially doesn't mean everything we have is meaningless, your mine. -Lando.

*goodnight norris. -Y/n.

*are you not coming home? Where are you? -Lando

*I am home. I'm staying at my house. - Y/n

*Please come home. - Lando.

She read my message but never responded.
In that moment all I wanted to do was go and tell her how much I loved her but I knew she needed time alone. I didn't want to put pressure on her.
Two weeks later:
I go to the McLaren center for debriefs and interviews. Once I get there I go to the conference room and my eyes immediately focus on her. Y/n was sitting next to Daniel and Jon. She was laughing, her smile light up the whole room. I haven't seen her in two week, I text her everyday but the conversation ended fast. Seeing her made me realize how much I've missed her.
"Hey, I saved you a seat" Emily's annoying voice echoed the whole room making everyone look at us.
"Thanks" I say sitting next to her while every one keeps there eyes on us.

Y/n pov:
I was sitting with Jon and Daniel, Daniel made a joke and I couldn't help but laugh. Once he walked into the room I could feel his eyes focus on me.
Emily spoke loud to make sure everyone heard her. It was the first time I had to sit in a room with her and lando together, the past two weeks I have been with Daniel and his team. I hadn't seen lando in over two weeks. We texted but conversation was dry and ended fast. Seeing him made my heart skip a beat. All eyes focused on them as he sat next to her.
"Ok so we will start with Daniels weekend, y/n give us an overall on his media this week please" zak says looking at me.
I stand up and go to the top of the table.
"Media this weekend will be a lot, there are 8 scheduled interviews, two are with sky sport f1. A lot of questions about the assistant swap, your aloud answer them in what ever way you feel. Sky have a segment about your relationship statues prepared due to the fact you unfollowed all the girls on Instagram and removed all pictures you had with girls off your socials, you don't have to answer any of there questions, you can tell them it personal and they will drop the topic, other than that it's smooth sailing, like always try limit the swear words, don't leak anything about the team or team members and of course most importantly have fun" I say sitting down again.
"Relationship status=simping for my assistant" Daniel laughs.
"Oh god, boys just can't seem to resist you in here" zak says rolling his eyes.
"Am i the only man in this room not falling head over heels for y/n" Jon questions giggling.
I look over and see lando get frustrated. He clinches his jaw and gives Daniel and evil look. In that moment all I wanted to do was leave. I felt like everyone was looking at me.
"Sorry I don't mean to interrupt but if I'm done here could I please leave? I don't feel too good" I ask zak.
"Ya for sure, do you need the day off?"
"No no, just need to minute to myself" I say walking out.
"Go check on her please" zak asks lando who is sitting next to him.
Lando follows me out and into my office.
"You ok" he asks
"Go back, you have to be there"
"Zak told me I can leave, are you ok"
"Ya I'm fine, just didn't want to be in there any longer"
Silence fills the room as I sit on the chair behind my desk.
"Can we talk" lando asks
"About ?"
"Us..."
I look at the time on my phone. 1:04pm, I wanted to say yes, the past two weeks without lando felt like torture, I missed him more and more every second. 
I opened my mouth to say yes but instead fear took over.
"I don't think that's a good idea plus I have to go get something to eat, I have lunch now." I say in fear I would get my heart broken.
Lando runs out of my office quickly. I get confused, he just ran off? He didn't even care he just left. Like it didn't bother him.
Minutes later he runs back into the office out of breath.
"For lunch, your favorite" he says sitting in the chair across from me handing me a bowl of pasta.
I felt my cheeks heat up bright red. My heart skipped a beat.
"Muppet" I say smiling rolling my eyes.
It's the little things that make me love him. Like this, he ran all the way to get me pasta, because he knows how much I love pasta.
"Can I sit?" Lando asks with hopeful eyes
"You got me food, I can't say no" I say pushing out the chair next to me for him to sit on.
"You know I love you right?" Lando says sitting down.
My breath gets caught in my throat. Even on good terms we didn't say I loved you a lot, we knew we loved eachother and we told eachother we did once in a while but it wasn't a common thing to say so his reassurance was nice. I panic and don't know what to say. I want to tell him how much I love and miss him but I don't want to rush back into anything.
"You know I love walks on the beach in the sunset?" I say giggling reminding him of our first argument we had.
"Funny, your really funny" he says rolling his eyes.
"You have a meeting" Emily shouts aggressively opening the door.
"Ok?" Lando says looking at her confused.
"So let's go" she shouts.
"I'm sorry but no shouting in my office please, it's a very calm place I don't need your weird bad mood ruining it" I say giggling.
She makes her way into my office closing the door behind her. She says nothing but she keeps her start on lando. I laugh remember what she said to me in the restaurant that night.
"Can you stop eye banging him, I'm trying to eat here" I say reminding her of what she said to me.
Lando can't control his laugh.
"Lando let's go" she says grabbing his hand. The thought of any other girl touching him drives me insane. I can't help feel jealous, she gets to spend everyday with him, and now she gets to touch him too.
"Don't touch him" I say without thinking.
"Excuse me" she says with a sassy tone.
"Do I have to repeat myself" I ask as jealousy overtook my body.
"Yes please do"
"I said don't touch him, meaning get your sticky hands off of him" I snap
She takes her hand off his and walks away.
"You have a meeting let's go" she says walking out.
Lando stays sitting.
"Jealous?" lando laughs as she leaves the room.
"No I just don't want her sticky hands all over my-.... all over you"
"All over your...?" Lando smiles and raises his eyebrows.
"Oh shut up, go you have a meeting."
"Yes I'm going I'm going" he says getting up. Just before he closes the door he looks back at me.
"Yours" he winks and closing the door walking out.
