The windows of Lando's Mclaren were rolled down, the wind giving off a nice breeze to the warm summer day. Mila was humming along to a song that played over the radio while Lando just drove the familiar way to his parent's house. Oliver called last night, asking the pair to come over, it made Lando slightly nervous, afraid that something was wrong. Mila could sense that Lando was uncomfortable and grabbed his hand, kissing the back of it. Lando smiled, loving the gesture as he was usually the one to kiss her hand reassuringly.

Mila was enveloped in a big hug by Flo, the younger sibling taking a particular liking to Mila. It sometimes made her wonder how it would be to have siblings but it also made her grateful for the bond she had with Lando's siblings which caused her to experience it a tiny bit. Mila grabbed Flo's hand and swung their arms back and forth as they made their way into the Norris house. Lando walked towards the backyard after he greeted his parents and Mila went to the kitchen to greet his mom. She laid her hands on Ciska's shoulders and gave her a kiss on her cheek which made Ciska let out a small squeal. "Oh my, you scared me! How are you gorgeous?" Mila blushed at the comment and gave her a thumbs up. Mila gestured her hands towards the food, asking Ciska if she could help, "If you could bring out the tray with the drinks, I will carry out the food, thanks love."

The weather was hot, not like the usual British summer but it was nice for a change. The family gathered around the big table in the garden, having a laugh and just catching up with each other. Mila was observing everyone, just like she always did when people were talking. She noticed Oliver and Savannah exchanging looks, their hands touching underneath the table as they whispered amongst themselves. Mila diverted her attention back to the conversation Lando was having with his dad when Oliver spoke up. "We forgot to give you your presents we got when we were on vacation." Savannah stood up and grabbed small bags from inside, giving everyone a bag with their name on it. Mila pulled out her whiteboard, "That is so sweet guys, you didn't have to." She showed them her writing. "We had to, open them up at the same time," Savannah said as she smiled widely, waiting for everyone to open their bags.

Mila took the ribbon from the bag, opening it up before pulling out a white shirt. Mila looked up as she heard someone gasp, Ciska stood up and quickly walked over to Sav and Oliver. Mila frowned and pulled the shirt out, finally seeing the writings on the shirt, 'AUNT MILA' was written in sparkly letters. Mila's hand involuntary moved over her mouth, she looked at Lando who had the biggest grin on his face. "Oh my gosh, congrats guys!" Land said as he stood up to hug the pair. Mila stood up after him, hugging the soon-to-be parents and kissing them. "My babies are going to have a baby, " Ciska said in between sobs and happy tears.

"How far along are you?" Little Ciska asked. "I'm just over five months along, we wanted to enjoy the news ourselves for a little while but we figured that we couldn't keep it a secret very much longer as I am showing quite a bit." laughter could be heard around the table as Savannah lifted her shirt and showed her bump. "So that's the reason for all the baggy clothes," Flo said as everyone laughed. Lando could sense Mila's change of mood, he could see that a fake smile was plastered over her face. He let it rest, he would ask her about it later, not wanting to spoil everyone's mood.

Lando and Mila were spending the night with his parents as they would celebrate Mila's birthday tomorrow, it was still surprisingly tough, but Lando had planned something nice. Mila was helping Ciska with the dishes, putting the plates and cutlery away in the designated spots. The smile was still present on Ciska's face as Mila observed her. "I'm so happy, I honestly thought that Lando would have kids first, but that time will come for you two, I'm sure of it. I'm going to be a grandma, I can't wait." It was as if Ciska could read Mila's mind, a tight-lipped smile was displayed on her face. "I'm a bit tired, so if you don't need me anymore, I'm going to head to bed." Mila showed Ciska her phone. Ciska nodded, pulling Mila in a warm hug, " Goodnight sweetheart, I will see you tomorrow."

Mila walked up to Lando's room, taking off her shoes as she sat down on the bed. She could hear the shower running in the en-suite bathroom. Mila checked her social media, liking some photos and checking her schedule for the upcoming days. She looked up as the bathroom door opened, revealing a fresh shower Lando. A towel wrapped around his waist while she could see the droplets of water run from his hair onto his chest. She gave him a sweet smile as he walked over to her, giving her a quick peck. Mila's eyes were glued to Lando's body. She could see the muscles in his back contract as he picked up some clean underwear from his bag. He dropped his towel, giving Mila a great view of his firm behind, her cheeks heating up with embarrassment, not wanting to be caught staring.

Mila put her phone on the nightstand, connecting it to the charger before laying on her side and pulling the sheets up to her chin. Lando made his way to the other side of the bed, stepping in after turning off the lights. They laid face to face, Lando pulled Mila closer to him, his hand draping over her waist. Lando took in Mila's face, her eyes looked tired and Lando could see that she was holding in tears. "What's going on darling?" Mila shook her head, not wanting to say it out loud. "I can see that something is bothering you. You know you can tell me anything right?" Lando was concerned, he swiped his thumb under her eye, wiping away the single tear that escaped her eye. "Jealous," Mila whispered, ashamed she said it out loud. "What are you jealous of baby?" Lando asked, his brows furrowing as he looked at her trembling lips. "Baby..." Mila choaked out with her hoarse voice. "Are you jealous of Olly and Sav having a baby?" Mila nodded her head, her eyes closing in embarrassment, it felt so stupid to admit it.

Mila grabbed her phone, not in the mood to physically talk. "It is stupid really because I was somewhat relieved that I wasn't pregnant when we had the scare. But now, hearing they are going to be parents. It just made me realize how much I want to have a baby. How much I want to be a mom. It's stupid really, and I am so happy for them, but I'm also a bit jealous." Lando swallowed the lump in his throat, he almost forgot they had the pregnancy scare a couple of weeks ago. But he would be lying if he said that the thought of them having a baby wouldn't creep through his mind every now and then.

"It's alright darling, you don't have to feel guilty. It just isn't our time yet. We will have our own family when the time is right. In the meantime, we will just stick to practicing." Lando said with a smirk on his face. Mila hid her face in Lando's neck, kissing his chest before looking him in his beautiful eyes. "I love you," Mila whispered, "I love you so much Mils, we will have our happy ending, I'm sure of it."
