Y/N's POV:
I'm woken up in the morning by the sound of someone knocking on my hotel room door. I quickly get out of bed rushing to the door to see who's knocking. Looking through the peephole I find my brother standing there with his hands on his hips. I unlock and open the door and he rushes into my room.
"Are you sure you're okay?" He asks walking into the middle of my room.
"Yes I'm fine. It just shocked me last night but I'm okay now." I reassure him as he sits down on my bed. I realized he's already ready for the day.
"Get ready quickly and we'll go get breakfast." He says causing me to rush to the bathroom to get ready.
Y/N's outfit:

I choose something comfy to wear and do some very light makeup, when I walk back out my brother is texting someone.
"Alright, I'm ready!" I say grabbing his attention. We head downstairs to grab breakfast from the hotel. Pierre and Charles motion for us to join them and Carlos leads me over there. I sit down  in between Pierre and Carlos and the boys start talking. I zone out until the waitress comes to take our order. After I order my attention is drawn back to the boys who are all talking about how the first race of the season went. I smile softly looking around the room seeing that most of the other drivers are here as well. While scanning the room I briefly make eye contact with a pair of soft eyes. I smile towards Lando before bringing my attention back to the conversation happening at the table I'm at.
Time Skip:
A little under two weeks seems to fly by and we're arriving in Saudi Arabia for the next Grand Prix. Carlos guides me through the airport to the taxi which takes us to our hotel. When we arrive I see that some drivers are already there. Carlos checks in while I talk to Pierre and Max.
"Y/N how have you been?" Max says pulling me into a hug.
"I've actually been much better." I say smiling.
"That's great to hear." Pierre says happily. "I'm glad your not letting anyone get you down anymore."
Pierre, Max, and I continue talking until someone interrupts us.
"Hey guys!"  I turn and find Lando walking over to us.
"Lando! Sup man?" Pierre says greeting Lando.
"Nothing much, ready for this next race." Lando responds.
"Yeah me too." Pierre agrees. I notice my brother approaching ,the guys do as well, Max and Pierre walk over to meet my brother leaving me alone with Lando.
"You seem happier than last time I saw you."  He says smiling.
"Yeah I've been doing better lately." I say which just causes his smile to grow.
"That's good. I'm glad." Before I get the chance to respond my brother comes over to us.
"Y/N, here's the keycard for your room." He says handing me the keycard.
"Thanks!"  I say. "I think I'm just gonna head up to my room now! See you guys later!"
Lando's POV:
I watch as Y/N walks away smiling. I'm glad that she's been doing better.
" Okay, stop gawking at my sister in front of me." Carlos says half joking and half serious.
"Sorry mate, she's gorgeous though, you know I've always thought that." I can't help but smile at the memory. When Carlos first joined McLaren I didn't know he had a sister, the first time I saw Y/N was the third race of Carlos's first season at McLaren I immediately turned to him and said "whoever that is she's gorgeous". I immediately earned a glare from Carlos who informed me that she was his younger sister. Y/N and I become really good friends instantly, Carlos was always wary of letting us hang out alone but it seems he doesn't mind anymore.
"Don't worry I'll never forget that day Lando. The minute my sister walked in the paddock your jaw dropped to the floor." He teases me but then he suddenly turns serious. "You should join Charles, Y/N, and I for dinner tonight. We're just having it at the restaurant here."
"I'd love to join you guys for dinner." I say sincerely.
"Alright see you later bro!" He says before walking towards the elevators.
Y/N's POV:
I sigh as I look at myself in the mirror. I haven't gotten this dressed up in a while and it just brings back a lot of memories.
Y/N's Outfit:

My brother told me that even though this restaurant was in the hotel it's still very fancy so I picked one of the nicer dresses that I packed

My brother told me that even though this restaurant was in the hotel it's still very fancy so I picked one of the nicer dresses that I packed. I walk out into the hallway and go to the elevator. When I'm downstairs I head towards the restaurant, the minute I'm inside I see my brother and Charles and a third person whose back is turned to me. As I approach the table I realize that the third person is Lando. I become a little happier knowing that Lando will be at dinner but I don't know why.
"Do you always have to grab the attention of every man in the room?" My brother teases. "No seriously, I think I just watched a man try to eat off an empty spoon." I just giggle in response.
"Sorry to steal your thunder." I tease back, sitting down in between Carlos and Lando. The waitress comes over and takes our order. Once she's done Carlos and Charles start talking to each other quietly, I assume they're talking about strategies. Lando turns to me and smiles.
"So are you ready for the race on Sunday?"  He asks.
"Yeah I mean I don't really do much. Just cheer on my brother and his team."  I reply taking a sip of my drink.
"I miss when you were cheering for McLaren." He says truthfully.
"Aw well I suppose I can cheer for McLaren when no one is looking." I tease him.
"Absolutely not!" Carlos cuts in playfully. "My sister is a Ferrari girl." Charles nods in agreement while I roll my eyes.
"She was a McLaren girl once." Lando says jokingly reminiscent.
"Once, a long time ago." Charles says. "Now she wears red. Loud and proud."
I laugh as the boys start to bicker about which team I should be supporting.
"Maybe I'll just start cheering for Redbull." I joke which receives three pairs of eyes glaring at me. Yeah
"This is ridiculous, she's my sister therefore she cheers for me. It's not the team that matters." Carlos says ending the conversation.
"Yes yes, go Ferrari!" I joke with him. The waitress bring our food over which causes the conversation to cease for a couple of minutes.
"This is really good." I find myself breaking the silence. Everyone just nods in agreement continuing to eat their food. Suddenly I notice someone's walking over to the table. Pierre approach the table coming around to my side before leaning down so he can whisper something into my ear.
"Max and I are going to have some fun want to join us?"
"I don't know." I whisper back. "I told my brother I would eat dinner with him."
"Oh c'mon he won't mind." Pierre scoffs, my brothers head pops up when Pierre stops whispering.
"What are you whispering about with my sister Pierre?" Carlos asks protectively putting his fork down.
"Relax, I was just asking if she wanted to come to the club with Max and I." Pierre explains causing my brother to sigh.
"Can't you see she's busy having dinner?" He says clearly not happy with the situation.
"Oh chill down Carlos I'm finished anyway." I say standing up.
"Y/N!" Carlos says as I turn to follow Pierre."Let's go."
Pierre looks unsure as we exit the restaurant and head towards Max who is waiting in the hotel lobby.
"You're brother seemed pretty upset that you were leaving like that." Pierre says looking back towards the restaurant.
"It's fine, I need to have some fun." I reassure him.
"You convinced her to come?" Max asks clearly shocked that I was willing to join them.
"Yes, now let's have to fun." Pierre says as we exit the hotel.
