"So what's your plan." Lando jumps down on to the couch next to Sophie, placing a me arm over the back so he can turn to face her better.

She quickly locks her phone and shoves it to the side so all her attention turns to him. "We'll I'll hopefully stay here for the next couple of days if you don't chuck me out before then that is." She laughs whilst he makes a tempted face. "Then I'll go back home and probably do some sim work, I think I'll try to spend sometime with my dad and that side of the family since Leah and Noah should be off of school for the summer."

Leah and Noah were her half brother and sister on her dads side. Although her relationship with her father was good but wasn't great, she was really close with her siblings. Her stepmum was more than happy for Sophie to be involved in their lives, embracing her in to her family despite what her and in laws had told her.

"Sounds good, when are you flying out to France?" He leans his head on the back of the couch on top of his arm, making eye contact with her.

"I think we fly out the Thursday morning, it's not a long flight so I'm not overly worried. What about you?"

"Either the Wednesday or Thursday morning, I should probably check that." He shrugs his shoulders.

"That would be smart." She draws off, looking back forward. "Do you have two gaming set ups for racing?" She wonders, looking towards his computer set up.

"I have one and max has one in his room." He questionably looks over to her.

"Want to race so I can actually beat your arse since I won't be in a Williams." She suggests with a smirk.

"Well Max is out for the next couple of hours and I'm sure he won't mind." Lando pushes himself off of the couch with a goofy smile on his face. "I'll go set them up."

"Hello everybody." Lando smiles in to the camera that was positioned just above his screen. "Sorry I've not done this more but I've been a little busy."

"If that's what you call a little busy I don't want to experience your version of very busy." Sophie speaks up through her headset.

The pair were about to start a stream, filming in the rooms next to each other.

"Excuse her terrible introduction but today we are joined by Sophie who is using Max's set up." He leans back and begins to set the game up.

"It's also worth noting this is my first time being streamed." She looks up at her camera. "And this is also the first time I've played the game so I might be sh-horrible." She quickly catches herself. "Am I allowed to swear on this?"

"Try not to please." Lando laughs looking at the screen to see the moment of panic in her face. "I know it'll be hard but it'll make this so much funnier." She glares at his picture on the screen, hoping he can see her and sense her annoyance. "Okay we should be alright to start now." He sets up the game.

"Uh Lando."

"Yeah." He pops his head up.

"I don't know how to join the game." She shyly say, looking at all the confusing options.

He lets out a huff, getting up out of his seat and running off the cameras view, before jogging down the corridor and entering Max's room. He leans over Sophie's seat, one arm behind her head on the chair and the other leaning over the side of her, pressing a range of buttons to get her to join the game. Whilst he was doing that Sophie's phone lit up with a text from Alex, she quickly skimmed it before showing it to Lando making him smile.

"Looks like Albono is joining us. At least I don't need to set his up for him." He playfully looks down at Sophie who only rolls her eyes at him.

Lando pulls away from the buttons and goes to run out of the room, before running back in not two seconds later. He makes a b-line for Sophie which scares her a bit, but he stops in time to pull her headphones on and lowers the mic. "You'll need that to shout at Alex and I every time we lap you." He giggles. She blocks the camera by moving her body, just to give him the middle finger as he runs out.
