Lando Norris | Formula 1

Chapter Twenty

When I woke up to my alarm I got dressed and ready for the day. I met Kai and Andreas for breakfast and we talked for a bit before leaving for todays race.

I crossed paths with Jos and a cold stare was shared between us. No greetings or fake smiles.

"Keep your cool" Kai whispered and I tear my eyes away and focus on the Redbull garage.

"Let's gear up" I say and Andreas nods.

"Let's beat these amateurs" He says and I laugh before agreeing.

We separate and get dressed in our suits and put on my helmet.

Kai took a few pictures and filmed small clips for a TikTok video later.

"You got this" Kai told me and nodded at me as I got in the car. "I got this" I say confidently before Kai close the door for me and I take off.

Jos stayed in his lane. Nothing majorly.

I got 1st place and celebrated with the team when I got back from the track.

I hug everyone and Andreas came second so he was still happy.

"We did goooood" Andreas sings and we bump helmets before hugging.

It was our signature handshake. Bumping our helmets. Lame I know.

After taking my helmet off Kai hands me my phone and I text Lando.

Nathalie-Cute-Verstappen:
1st place thank you very much sir.

Lando-Cute-Norris:
Congrats! I made P2. I got podium!

I smile and type back a congratulations and snap a selfie and send it.

Lando-Cute-Norris:
I miss you. I miss those lips. I miss those cuddles and hugs. I miss everything.

I smile and send back a heart ❤️ and I miss you too.

Kai leads me to the conference and Andreas joins my side and we answer the questions.

"Nathalie, are you single? There has been some rumors going around and some pictures were posted the other day" A reporter asks and I smiled sheepishly.

"What pictures?" I ask slyly and Andreas starts laughing. "Show me!" I say panicked and the reporter hold his phone up.

Pictures of Lando and I at the airport, hugging, kissing and cozying up with each other.

But you couldn't completely see that it was Lando, but if you know him you can see it.

"Well..." I start and the crowd starts shouting more questions. "I might be dating someone, but nothing is official yet" I admit and nod at my answer.

"Is it Charles leclerc? Is he cheating on Charlotte?"
"What does Max says to that?"
"Is it an F1 driver?"
"Is it Lando Norris?"
"Are you over the leak of your past with Jos Verstappen?"

The questions are shouted at once and I struggle to see who asks what.

"Alright, alright. First No, not Charles Leclerc. Charlotte is a good friend of mine as is Charles. There's nothing there" I say and clear that up. I don't even get how they could ask that?

"Secondly, Max approved the guy, so he says nothing. He's happy for me" I say.

"And third, Max and I made a deal that I would never date any of his formula 1 mates. I'm keeping that promise" I say in attempt to throw them off.
