No words - Lando Norris

═══════T H I R T Y T W O ═══════

A/N: Hey guys! I'm back in full writing mode. I cant remember what I wrote in terms of Mila's pregnancy so in this chapter she wil be 27 weeks pregnant and I will try to keep up with that date.

WARNING!: This chapter involves a crash and the hospital so that may be triggering.

Bareclona, a beautiful city with great architecture, lovely people and great food. Mila had her feet up, her ankles were getting more swollen everyday and the heat and all the traveling wasn't helping. She was sat in Lando's drivers room while she was working on her laptop. The fan in the room was directly pointed at Mila while Lando was getting a massage from his trainer.

Only Andreas and Zak and Jon, Lando's trainer, knew about the pregnancy and they wanted to keep it like that until after the race in Monaco because Mila would be working from home for 3 weeks and after that she would be going on maternity leave. Mila took off her reading glasses and put them on the table. She put her head back and rubbed the sides of her stomach, Lando looked at his girlfriend, "You alright there, babe?" Lando asked her as he hopped of the massage table and put his shirt back on. Mila just hummed, in answer to Lando's question, not yet feeling comfortable to talk in front of Jon who gave the two some privacy. Mila pouted as she watched her boyfriend get dressed in his racesuit, she would much rather watch him while his shirt was of, but he had to prepare for the race so she had to deal with it.

Mila closed her laptop when Lando was all done with getting dressed, Lando gave Mila a long kiss before they opened the door and walked into the garage. Mila walked behind Lando and Jon, who was carying Lando's gear. Lando stepped into his car and once he was all strapped in Mila stepped forward, her face in the halo so Lando could see her. She kissed her own pinky and put it through the halo, Lando hooked his pinky with hers, a ritual they came up with a while ago before every race. It was their way to say good luck, to reassure each other that they would be seeing each other soon. Mila could see the crinkles by Lando's eyes, indicating that he was smiling. Mila mouthed 'I love you' and stepped back so the mechanics could do their last checks. Mila watched as Lando drove out of the garage and on to the grid.

Mila was sitting in the back of the garage, her left leg was bouncing up and down while the palms of her hands were clammy. Mila was always nervous during a race and today was no diffrent. Mila was updating Lando's social media account when she all of a sudden heard people in the garage scream. Mila looked up in horror, she watched the tv screen and saw how one of the Alpines hit Lando's car in the back and made him spin. Mila watches the Alpine crash against the barrier. Lando's orange Mclaren rolled over, once, twice, three times. Time seemed to slow down, stop even. Mila feels her heartrate pick up and her breathing getting heavier by the second. Mila watched in horror as Lando's car finally came to a halt in the gravel, before anything else was shown, the tv turned black and the broadcast was turned off.

Mila stood up and grabbed one of the headphones, she put them on and heard Lando's race engineer talking, "Lando? Lando, are you alright?" Mila whipped the headphones off and just let them fall when there was a silence, a silence that lasted way too long. Mila's eyesight became blurry and her head was spinning. She tried to calm herself down but with al the uproar in the garage, she could only feel the anxiety creep up on her. "He's not responding," Mila heard someone of the crew say. She could feel herself gasping for air, Charlotte, Lando's press officer came to her side. "Mila, are you alright?" Mila was hyperventilating, the thing that shocked Charlotte the most was the moment Mila spoke, "Lando, Lando," After that Mila fainted.

Mila blinked her eyes to try and adjust to the light. She was confused as to where she was, she looked to her left and saw Charlotte sitting in the chair, barely awake. Mila softly smiled as she made Eye contact with Charlotte. "Hey you," Charlotte said as Mila tried to adjust to her surroundings. "You're in the hospital, you fainted and they needed to check up on the... Baby..." Charlotte said, a bit hesitant and questioning. Mila looked at her hands, she looked around her to see if her phone was around so she could write something to Charlotte. Charlotte saw that she was looking for something, "If you are looking for your phone, we didn't find it. Do you want to borrow mine?" Mila nodded her head and opened the notes app. "Sorry we didn't tell you about the pregnancy, we wanted to keep it to ourselves for a little while before we told anyone else beside the people who needed to know." Charlotte looked at Mila after she read the text, a sympathetic smile on her face, "Don't apoligise Mila, I get it. I have to admit that I was a little hurt that I didn't know, but I get it." Mila was relieved, happy that she and Charlotte weren't on bad terms.

"How is Lando?" Mila typed, not really wanting to know, afraid the answer would be really bad. Charlotte let out a deep sigh, "Luckily he is doing alright," Mila could feel tears that wanted to escape her eyes. "After you passed out he got out of the car on his own. He didn't repond because his radio got diconected by the crash. He is in surgery though because he has and broken wrist. But other than that he is fine. We didn't tell him you passed out though, we didn't want him to worry any more than he already did." Mila nodded her head, "And the baby?" Charlotte smiled, "Your baby is perfectly healty, you luckily fell backwards and were caught by two mechanics." You felt like all the weight of the world was lifted of your shoulders.

There was a short silence before Charlotte spoke up, "Mila?"You just hummed, "You spoke Lando's name before you passed out, do you remmeber that?"Mila looked away, she sighed and grabbed Charlotte's phone again. "I know. I have been talking to Lando a bit. I'm trying to get comfortable with talking again but i have been mute for so long that I almost forgot how to speak. But Lando is patient with me and he helps me to het comfortable with speaking again." You blushed a bit when handed Charlotte her phone so she could read what you had typed. "Wow Mila, that is great! I won't say anything to anyone else if you don't want them to know you are speaking sometimes. But I am so proud of you!" Charlotte said enthousiasticly. You gave her a grateful smile, still hesitant and insecure about the whole talking in front of others. "Can I go see Lando?" Charlotte nodded her head, "Yeah the doctor said that they would discharge you as soon as you would wake up and Lando is just waking up so you can go there and wait for him." You smiled and Charlotte went and got a doctor for you.

You were brought to Lando by Charlotte, the doctors advised you to use a wheelchair until you left. Lando was still asleep, the anaesthesia just wearing off. Charlotte parked you next to Lando's bed and left to give you some privacy. Your eyes glided over Lando's resting body, he still looked so handsome, even if he was out from the drugs and his arm was hidden by a cast. You grabbed Lando's hand of his non broken arm and carresed his fingers. Lando moaned and grumbled when he woke up, giving you a small smile as he saw you sitting next to you. "Hey you," You smiled at Lando's tired face and moved your hand over his forehead to get some of his hair out of the way. Lando furrowed his eyebrows when he realised you were sitting in a wheelchair, "What happened?" Lando asked, concern written all over his face eventhough he was the one in the crash. Mila got her phone out of her pocket, Charlotte had gotten her phone for her. " I passed out after your crash, I was anxious that my bdy couldn't cope." Lando's face softened. "But you and the baby are fine right?" Mila smiled and nodded her head.

Lando looked down at his arm, "Well I guess my season is done for a while." Mila gave him a sad smile, just when she wanted to show Lando her phone to tell him something, the doctor came in. "Goodafternoon Lando. And you are?" The doctor held his hand out for Mila to shake, "This is my girlfriend, Mila." The doctor nodded his head and grabbed charts that were hanging from the side of Lando's bed. "Well Lando the operation went well. We could repair everything inside your wrist and fortunately there is no severe damage to your muscles. We want to keep you here for the night, just so we can observe and if everything goes well through the night, you can leave in the morning." Lando was relieved to here the news, "And how long until I can go back to racing?" The docter chuckled, expecting this question. "If everything heals well, your cast can come off in six weeks. Then after we advise revalidation for at least six weeks but you have to listen to your body on what it can handle and what not." Lando did the maths in his head, "Fuck, that means my season is basicly over, I will only have two races or something left." Lando let his head rest against the pillow, his eyes closed, this was not how he imagined this season to go.
