It isn't always easy-Lando Norris

Lando put me down.

꧁𝙻𝚊𝚗𝚍𝚘'𝚜 𝙿𝙾𝚅꧂

Olivia: "MONACO BABY!"
I laughed at Olivia who was stretching out next to me. We just got out of the plane and were perfectly on time. I took our suitcases and my backpack while Olivia only took her backpack. We drove towards the hotel and checked in. This weekend was the first weekend we would share a room as we most of the time slept in one bed. We both changed into a McLaren polo and Olivia was doing something in the bathroom while I was laying on the bed.
Olivia: "Lan?"
Lando: "yes?"
Olivia: "I think I forgot to pack my white airforce's can you look for me?"
Lando: "on my way."
I stood up from the bed and opened her suitcase. I went thru her stuff and eventually the white shoes with orange detailing were showing a bit. I pulled them out and I never looked that good at them. The number 88 was on it and the same color red that was on her helmet colored them.
Lando: "found them!"
Olivia: "really? Thank you!"
She came walking out of the bathroom and took them from my hand. She pulled them and tied the orange shoelaces.
Olivia: "you ready to go?"
Lando: "almost."
I kissed Olivia before walking to the door.
Lando: "you coming?"
Olivia: "yep."
She stood up and took her backpack from the ground. We walked downstairs where part of the team was waiting. We got into the bus. There wasn't any place to sit so we both stayed to stand. I grabbed the pole above my head with one hand while having my other hand around Ol's waist. She had her hand on the pole as well but still leaned in to me for concert. Her head was resting on my shoulder while I planted a kiss on her head sometimes.
Lando: "you excited?"
Olivia: "always. You?"
Lando: "very."
We both let out a laugh before the bus came to a stop. The doors opened and we walked out. We both scanned our passes and walked in the paddock. Like always we waved and smiled at the fans and photographers. We walked into the hospitality and went to our own driver room's to prepare for the race. I got in the blue orange suit and left it hang open so my fireproof shirt was showing off. I placed my cap on my head and took the waterbottle in my hands. I knocked on Olivia's room and the door opened. She smiled at me while walking in front of me. She also had her suit hanging down the same way only to show of her slim waist more. She was wearing a high ponytail that swung perfectly with her movements like always. I took a little run to catch up to her and we finally arrived at the garage. She kissed my lips quickly before running off towards her engineers. I walked towards mine to also go thru some things. We finished up the talk and I went over to the back of the garage where my helmet, baclava, necksupport and earplugs were already waiting for me. I felt a hand on my shoulder and I looked around to see Ol.
Olivia: "might want to warm up first?"
Lando: "yes. Forgot that."
Olivia: "let's go then."
We walked to the paddock where our trainers were stood chatting.
Olivia: "hello hello."
Wendy: "hey girl."
Jon: "hai."
We both got our warming up done and I saw Olivia lying on the ground. I laughed at her before walking over to her.
Olivia: "it's so hot here."
Lando: "it's Monaco."
Olivia: "England is way to cold."
I pulled her up from the floor with my hand and then picked her up. She wrapped her legs around me and we just kissed each other for a slight moment. She rested her head on my shoulder and we just stood there a bit.
Olivia: "let's get going for FP1."
She let her legs go down but I didn't put her down. Instead I started walking.
Olivia: "Lando put me down."
Lando: "no."
She got her legs around me again not wanting to argue. We walked into the garage and I sat her down on the table with her race stuff.
Olivia: "thank you I guess."
Lando: "no problem. Drive safe?"
Olivia: "I will try."
Lando: "good."
I kissed her forehead before getting back to my part of the garage to get myself ready.

I had placed my baclava on meaning that my earplugs were already in as well. I zipped up my race suit and than pulled on my helmet adjusting my necksupport and the straps. I looked at the mirror that for some reason was stand in the garage and I looked at my helmet. The bright red helmet with the big black outline of a lion that Max and I both had as we both drove under the Dutch flag as I lived in the Netherlands for most of my life. On the rest of the helmet were my sponsors and in between there was just red. I didn't hate my helmet but I didn't live it either. Just nothing to special if you get me. I climbed in the car and looked to my side where Lando was just about to climb in. We gave each other a thumbs up before focusing on our own thing.
——————————————————————————
Lando was already back in the garage a good 10 minutes before end of practice and was already out of the car while I was still doing some rounds. I drove into the pitlane and I hit the break perfectly. The team turned the car back inside when I had my gloves off and looked to the side I saw Lando kneeling next to me. His hands were on the car for support and he was smiling at me. I pulled my visor up so that he could see my eyes. I smiled back at him but I don't think he could see.
Lando: "had a good drive?"
Olivia: "yea pretty good. Need a slight change but felt pretty good for FP1."
Lando: "you know what you placed in FP1?"
Olivia: "no why?"
Lando: "you placed second with 0.087 behind Lewis."
Olivia: "your joking?!"
Lando: "no really!"
I widened my eyes and looked to the screen next to me. There it was. 0.087 behind Lewis.
Olivia: "didn't expect that oh dear god."
He chuckled at me while helping me get out. I pulled of my helmet and stuff and unzipped my racing suit letting it hang around my waist. I redid my ponytail and placed my cap on. Before joining Lan for some lunch in the McLaren cafeteria.
