lando pov:

golden light spilled through my windows. i ran my fingers through my fluffy brown hair, squinting at the merciless sun in the morning sky. my hand reached aimlessly for my phone. a text from my best friend carlos flashed on the slightly cracked screen.

carlost science:

                                                            you:
                                                on it amigo
carlost science:

dont be late im already on the way.



i lazily rolled off the side of my bed and dragged my feet over to the bathroom. carlos has been my friend since highschool. lets just say he helped me and ive stuck with him ever since

flashback:

"please stop" i whimpered under his foot.

he smugged down at me and pushed his foot further onto my chest. the pain stung as i felt the pressure on my ribs threaten to break them in. i weakly grasped at his ankle trying to let myself breathe. the cold tiled floor pressed against my back as my vision slowly dotted with black spots.

suddenly i heard a loud cry echo through the hallway. a fist went straight to the guys jaw. i felt the pressure on my chest lift and i gasped for air. my blurred vision could barely make out the two figures before me. I could hear loud grunts until it all boiled down to heavy panting. a hand reached out to me and i gingerly grabbed it. the rough hand pulled me up to my feet. 

"try not to get your ass kicked next time. who knows if ill be there to save you" he chuckled and shook my hand.

i smiled and locked him in a tight hug. his eyes widened and he hesitantly hugged back. 

"thanks for saving me, bro. my names lando, lando norris. what's yours?"

"carlos, carlos sainz"

 I splashed ice cold water on my face and brushed my teeth. this first day at university has to be perfect. i ruffled my hair to its usual messy style and scanned my wardrobe for an outfit. my gaze settled on an orange hoodie and a pair of black jeans. i grabbed my bag from the floor and quickly made my way over to the front porch. just as i slammed the front door shut a loud engine noise could be heard in the distance. i sighed and slowly walked to the driveway. music was blasting at 100 as the sleek silver ferrari pulled over in front of my house. i rolled my eyes and jumped into the passenger seat. 

"really? smooth operator?" i couldnt help but laugh at the grin he had on his face.

his smile was just as bright as the sunlight that shined on his worn out grey Puma cap and white sleeveless tank top. he pushed his foot on the gas pedal and we sped off.
