Nola and Charles were about to walk the track with the team to get race ready. It was going to be a good one Nola hoped, she couldn't wait. Barcelona had already been amazing!
"Oy oy" Nola shouted ahead. She saw Lando and ran and jumped on his back. He was walking through the paddock with Daniel.
"How's my favourite Leclerc?" Lando asked catching Nola's legs, she rested her chin on his shoulder. He groaned slightly, he wasn't feeling well.
"Don't let Charles hear you" Nola whispered making Lando laugh. "But I'm good thank you, how's my favourite McLaren driver" Nola smiled and caught Daniels eye whos jaw had dropped at her words
"Hey!" Daniel yelled, Nola and Lando laughed
"Whaaaat? He's my bestie" Nola laughed
"Yesss!" Lando smiled as Nola got down. He threw his arm round her shoulders as the three spoke
"But favourite Mclaren driver? That's deep" Daniel spoke in his thick accent
"Okay okay, you're my favourite Australian, how's that?" Nola asked. Daniel nodded in half achievement, that'll do. "I mean to be fair, I do like you two. My best buds" Nola smiled which earned a squeeze from Lando and a fistbump from Daniel
"That's more like it" Daniel chuckled
"Oh before I forget, Luis said something about if you can call her?" Lando said, he then coughed slightly. His voice was weak
"I will, are you okay?" Nola asked
"I think it's hayfever or something. My throat hurts a bit" Lando shrugged
"Sorry what?" Nola wondered, Lando really didn't sound right and she was close with him, so she instantly worried about him, particularly when he would be driving a car at speed
"I'm fine, I promise" Lando said
"You don't sound fine at all Lando" Nola said
"I'm going to see the team doctor so don't worry" Nola looked at Lando properly, he was a tanned person anyway, but he looked paler than normal, his eyes a little sunken and dull, he sipped his water and winced everytime he swallowed. Nola put his arm around his waist
"I hope so, don't be silly. I feel like my list of drivers to worry about is getting longer by the day" Nola said squeezing him
"Aww how cute. Don't worry Nola, I'll make sure he's okay" Daniel nudged Nola gently and she smiled
"Call Luisinha" Lando said, giving Nola a side hug. Daniel high-fived Nola and fistbumped Charles who had caught up with the three, before Nola walked in separate direction to the McLaren boys. Nola was handed a bottle of water which snapped her from her thoughts of worry. She text Luisinha that she would call her later, before joining her brother on the track for the walk, she loved walking the tracks, especially while it was actually peaceful for the only time during the weekend.nola_leclerc added to her story
While Charles was doing media, Nola headed back to the Ferrari trailer and sat in his room. She decided to call Luisinha. Her face popped up on her screen immediately. Luisinha was in the middle of getting her makeup done for a shoot."There she is, my favourite! How are you?" Luisinha greeted
"Ooh favourite, love that. I'm good how are you?"
"I'm good, I'm just getting my makeup done?"
"You free to talk?" Nola asked her. Luisinha smiled and nodded as a makeup brush went across her face
"Yeah absolutely"
"I spoke to Lando, he wanted me to call you?"
"Yessss! I've been meaning to call you but I've been so busy with this, so basically I've got a shoot coming up in Milan and the people I work with want you. It's a seasonal shoot for a summer clothing collection and they want you to model with me!"
"This isn't real?"
"It is!! The people I work for were looking for someone new, and I spoke about you and showed them your Instagram and they're want you. I recommended you and they were more than happy, you've got a better following than I have anyway so they're really excited if you want to join. It's after Monaco, we'll go to Milan and shoot for them, all expenses paid, you'll be paid, they'll sort out all your styling and makeup"
"You are joking?"
"No seriously, I promise. Say you'll do it. It's me and you!"
"I cannot believe it"
"You should have an email from the company, but you'll need to sign a contract. It'll be the first of many. They want you to model for them"
"This is insane" Nola couldn't believe any of it, she knew Luisinha was her biggest supporter and had mentioned speaking to some people before but Nola dismissed it as she never thought it might happen, now it was.
"I know, but im so exited for you! As soon as I heard I had to mention you"
"I don't know how I'll ever be able to repay you, this is such an amazing opportunity"
"You don't have to repay me, only say you'll do it"
"I would love to, im going to check my emails now and have a look"
"Amazing! Yes! Any questions just text me" Luisinha jumped around for joy and was then scolded by her makeup artist and they both laughed
"I will"
"I'll be in Monaco at the race anyway so we'll fly to Milan after, I'm leaving on Monday and we'll be there for a couple of days" Luisinha said, Nola nodded along, still in disbelief that this was even happening.
"This is crazy!"
"I know! Check out all the stuff and we'll go from there. You're going to love it"
"Thank you so so much"
"Always, gotta look out for my fellow wags"
"Haha, yes!" Nola laughed at her
"Oh Nola I've got to go, I'll text you soon okay?" Luisinha spoke as she was called and her face sprayed with a product
"Absolutely, have fun. Thank you Luis, I'll speak to you later"
"Byeeee" Luisinha blew a kiss to Nola and she returned it
"Byeee"Nola laid back on Charles' makeshift bed and dropped her phone next to her. She couldn't believe what was happening. Someone wanted her to model for them, all thanks to Luisinha. In Milan! Nola checked her emails and read through everything before replying to it and then she ran out the trailer to go and find someone, anyone. Charles, Lando or Pierre, anyone she wanted to tell them and she wears so happy she was practically bouncing down the paddock. Nola was dumbfounded, it might not be much to some people but to be recommended for a modelling shoot? And then they want her. She was stunned. Dazed.
