Mila's lashes fluttered against her cheeks as she woke up. After blinking a few times she was used to the sunlight that came in through the curtains, the door to the balcony was open, the curtains blew from the soft breeze that came into the room. She felt pressure on her lower abdomen and looked down to see Lando's head resting against her stomach. "And one day when you are a little bit bigger, you can come with us to the paddock and you can see daddy race his fast car." Mila smiled, she pretended to be asleep, not wanting to interrupt Lando's moment. She listened while Lando was talking to the baby, it made her chest swell with butterflies, Lando would be such a good dad.
"Mommy is eavesdropping little bean, we can't get a moment for our selves can we?" Lando said while he looked up at Mila. "Good morning," Lando smiled while he looked up and kissed her, "morning," Mila whispered back as she pulled away from the kiss. Lando laid back down, Mila's hand ran through Lando's untamed hair. "What are you doing?" Mila asked, her voice raspy with sleep and from the fact that she was still getting used to talking. Lando ignored her and just whispered sweet nothings against her slowly growing stomach. "What are you doing Lan?" Mila asked again as she caressed his handsome face. Lando kisses her stomach, "We couldn't sleep so I was just having a conversation with little bean" Mila got butterflies in her stomach when she thought about the sweet moment she just interrupted.
Mila all of a sudden pushed Lando aside and rushed towards the bathroom, the bile rising from her stomach as she emptied her guts. Tears streamed down her face from throwing up when Lando made his way next to her. Lando kneeled beside her, pulling her hair aside so it wouldn't get dirty. "Are you alright? Maybe you should stay home today, Rest up and not go to work." Mila stood up and walked to the sink to wash her hands and brush her teeth, Lando just looked at her with a worried look on his face. Mila sighed and grabbed her phone, "I'm fine Lan, it's just morning sickness. You're sweet but I can't stay home the entire pregnancy because of morning sickness. It will wear off once the pregnancy progresses." Lando bit his bottom lip, not sure if he should push for Mila to just stay home. But he knew that she was right, "I'm fine babe," Mila whispered as she turned on the shower.

The couple had a packed day at the office. Lando had a simulator session in the morning which gave Mila some time to catch up on her emails and to update some of Lando's socials. Mila closed her work email and scanned through her personal one, one, in particular, caught her attention.
'Dear Miss Jones,
How brave of you to reach out for help. If you would like we have an opening on Friday morning at ten so you and Dr. Howard can have a first meeting.
We hope to hear from you soon,
Mental Health Clinics'
Mila quickly closed the email as Lucy knocked on her door. "Hey gorgeous, you ready for lunch?" Mila smiled and grabbed her phone and ID, closing the door behind her before hooking her arm with Lucy. The two friends caught up over lunch, gossiping about the events that happened at the factory and the track while Mila was gone traveling. "Are you alright? You look tired." Mila picked at her food, "Just tired from traveling," Mila bit her bottom lip, she wanted to tell Lucy about the baby but she and Lando discussed that they wanted to keep it for themselves for a while, at least until they told Lando's family.
"There is something that is bothering me," Mila handed her phone over to Lucy, showing her the many hate comments under several Instagram posts and Twitter tweets. Many people asked what Lando was seeing in Mila, saying she was just after his money or that she wanted to get higher in the company. The doubts started to rise in the pit of Mila's stomach. "What if Lando sees this? What if he believes them and thinks that I really am just dating him for his money." Lucy looked sympathetically at Mila, "Babe, have you talked to Lando about this? I'm sure he knows you love him, he is a smart guy. Everyone can see how much you love each other."
Lucy's words didn't make Mila feel any better. It was sweet of her to say but she agreed that she needed to talk to Lando about it. "I see him after lunch, I will talk to him about it." Lucy nodded her head, she talked over the subject and told Mils about her night out last week with a couple of friends, Mils zoned out, occasionally humming and nodding her head as if she was paying attention.

Lando was sitting in front of the camera, answering the questions the interviewee was asked, he looked at Mila who was sitting behind the camera. He could see that something was bothering her but tried to be his bubbly self as he continued with the interview. "The next fan question is a bit personal, how is your dating life going?" The interviewee asked. Lando got an instant smile on his face as he glanced at Mila who was occupying herself with her tablet. "It's going great, I'm really happy and that is all I'm going to say about," Lando answered, a small frown appeared on his face as he saw that Mila was not even paying attention to the questions that were asked. Something is really occupying her mind, he thought. "Well, there you have it folks, thank you so much Lando, good luck on your next race!" The camera was shut off and everyone was packing their stuff.
Lando politely said his goodbyes as he walked up to Mila, she looked confused that the interview was over already, embarrassed about her lack of attention. The Tv crew made their way out of the building and Lando and Mila walked back to her office. Mila took a seat at her desk while Lando shut the door. "What is going on Love, you have been distant the whole day." Mils shut her computer off and packed her bag, "Can we talk about it at home please," Lando shook his head, "No, something is bothering you and we are talking about it now." Mila sighed
She didn't want to say it but she knew that there was no way out now, "Hate," Mila muttered. Lando got confused not knowing what she was talking about. "Hate? Do you not love working here anymore?" Mila's eyes widened as she shook her head furiously, "Instagram," she said as she grabbed her phone to show Lando the hate comments. Lando confusingly grabbed her phone, it was silent for a couple of minutes as he scrolled through her Instagram. "You know they are wrong right? I don't think you're a golddigger, and you make happy, despite everything that people are saying," Mila bit on the inside of her cheek, "It's hard Lan," she said as a tear rolled down her cheek.
Lando kneeled in front of her, "Love, look at me," Lando put his finger under Mila's chin so their eyes met. "I don't care what everybody is saying, all I care about is you and the baby and that you are happy and healthy. I'm sorry I didn't know about all the comments, but there is a reason why I didn't know about them. I don't read that stuff, it's people who don't know us, saying bull shit. They think they know me but they don't. I know you and you know me better than anyone and that is all I care about. I would to think that I would have figured it out if you were after my money," Lando said with a joking tone, making Mila chuckle.
"I love you," Lando said as he raised Mila's head so he could kiss her. Mila closed her eyes as she took in the warmth of Lando's lips, his hands on the side of her head giving her comfort. She planted her lips against his, wishing this moment could last forever. Lando pulled away, Mila's eyes stayed close for a second longer. When her eyes opened she looked into Lando's big hues, they were filled with worry and concern. "Are you feeling better?" Mila nodded her head, "Come on, let's go home, we will cuddle on the couch with some food and you can pick the movie tonight." Mila laughed, "Bean would like pizza," Mila softly said as her cheeks colored a light shade of red, making Lando laugh and throw his head back with Laughter. "Sure we can pizza for dinner tonight,"
Lando grabbed Mila's hand as she locked up her office. Their hands intertwined as they made their way towards Lando's car, greeting people on their way out.
