Australia was an absolute whirlwind, things are definitely more intense with Mercedes than with any of the previous teams I've worked with. I loved every second of the weekend though and I am beyond proud of my boys! I can't lie though it was really nice to sleep in my own bed last night, not at George's or a hotel but my bed that I share with my Lando.

I need to go to the supermarket today as we are running really low on essentials like toilet roll and toothpaste. Lando is out with Jon at the moment so now would be the better time to go. I've just been sat at the kitchen island holding my coffee for a few hours, going through the absolute plethora of emails that have been coming in. I let out a sigh before shutting the lid of my laptop and I stretch my arms out above my head. Right let's get on with the day! I go over to the cupboard in the kitchen and grab some shopping bags before throwing on my converse and picking my car keys out of the bowl. I shut the front door and press unlock on the car. Climbing in I switch the engine on and put on my favourite playlist.

I pull up at Tesco and grab my bags out of the boot. I walk in and head straight for the fruit and Vegetables as that is the majority of my shop. I'm minding my own business throwing what I need into the trolley when a girl stops in front of me "Oh my god! Are you Molly Lanes?!" I nod my head gently my hands clutching a head of broccoli "I can't believe it!" She squeals "this is beyond exciting! Can you let Lando know I'm a huge fan!" I smile "of course I can!" She goes red "you are really lucky" I can't disagree "I am, thank you" she nods "great to meet you!" I smile "you as well"

After I finally get out of Tesco, I jump in the car and start the drive home. I'm bopping along with the song playing when I realise the same car has been following me so far. I'm sure I'm just being paranoid, surely they are just heading the same way? I drive down my road and the car follows me, I indicate to go into the driveway and the car waits behind me. I swing the car in and pull up and switch the engine off. I open the boot and I hear wheels crunching on the gravel. My heart stops, I'm sure it's just Lando. I look over my shoulder and see the unfamiliar car. My heart feels like it stops as James climbs out of the drivers seat. I freeze completely "Not expecting me?" He jeers and I can't move, I can't speak, I can't move. He walks over and I finally start backing up "no don't act like that!" He warns me "what are you doing here?" He shrugs "well I wanted to make sure you were okay" he says softly "I'm okay" I respond, wishing that Lando would be home right now, like right now. He gives me a sadistic grin "get used to having me around, I shall see you again soon" he brushes his fingers across my cheek. I flinch back, looking up at him for a reaction "I will see you soon" he promises.

He climbs back in his car and pulls back out of the driveway. I let out a breath I wasn't sure I was holding. "Fuck" I mutter, I thought he was gone, I didn't think he was free. The police never promised he was caught, we never actually heard anything. Why was I so naive? I collapse down on the driveway and clutch my knees to my chest.

Lando

"See you later!" I shout to Jon as I climb out of the car in front of the driveway, he always insists on not coming in the drive. I can't wait to see Mols, she was asleep when I left this morning. I'm practically sprinting to the front door when I spot Mols boot is open with the shopping bags, she did say she might go food shopping. My eyes drift down and I see her sat on the floor clinging onto her knees, what the fuck has happened?! I rush over "Molly, baby?" I ask softly and she doesn't look up "Mols, it's me" I say placing my hand on her arm and she flinches her gaze lifting to meet mine "Lands?" She whispers and I nod before pulling her into my arms. What has happened?! She is shaking and suddenly I hear the sobs erupt from her "Molly please, you're okay!" I attempt to reassure her before walking us both to the house.

Once we are inside I place her down on the sofa and she clings onto me "I need to get the shopping and lock your car" I say peeling her hands off of my shirt "two seconds!" I say running out of the door. I scoop all of the shopping up and slam the boot closed. I then dump the bags in the hallway and hurry back into the living room. She has her arms wrapped around her legs and she jumps when I enter the room. Her eyes are wide and she looks absolutely terrified. "Please tell me what's happened?" I plead and she buries herself into my side "he was here" she practically whispers and I immediately know who she is talking about "what?!" I say feeling the anger deep through me "he followed me home from Tesco" she tells me and I feel furious "how dare he! How dare he come anywhere near you again" she starts crying again "oh Mols, I'm sorry I wasn't here" she shakes her head "he wouldn't have come if you were" I can't leave her alone, I can never leave her alone! How can I keep her safe?
