Pasha had a large smile as he excused himself and started sprint walking over to his sister and his niece.

"Ayyyy my favorite sister!" "your only Sister." Xenia replied coldly as he hugged her, and then he looked at Natalia "Ayyy! my favorite child!" He hugged her tightly, "She's not your child." "Might as well be, she saw me more in her childhood than you" He replied and Natalia hugged him tightly.

"Missed you Uncle Nate" he laughed "Sure missed you too, was boring having no one around to pull pranks with" Natalia gave him a fist bump as Xenia gave the both a stern look.

they moved away from the elevator and Xenia whispered "you really had to have a business meeting? WHEN INVITING US" "i don't realize why your so mad" the russian said to her, and she gave him a slap on the shoulder as she replied "It's formula 1, they know us. and they think we're dead" "hey i thought you wanted the people to know you're alive!" He held his hands up in defense "But-" "is now a bad time to tell you the drivers are here too?" Xenia took a deep breath as she thought about strangling her twin. before setting on a fake smile "Come on. let's play happy family atleast once."

Natalia took off her Sunglasses letting her eyes wander the room as she recognized some of the people from her childhood.

they walked towards the team managers who had a surprised look on their faces. "It's nice to meet you all again" Xenia said shaking their hands, "Natalia!" Toto said and went over to hug her "You're so grown up now" "Awww Toto i missed you!" he smiled as he held her in his arms a little longer before letting them go "have you met the teams yet? oh they would be so shocked to see you!" "actually- we're saving that for today." Xenia said, and Toto nodded understandingly.

Xenia, Natalia and Pasha proceeded to walk to their table, sitting down and ordering some drinks. of course. only water for Natalia since her mother was strict on such things.

Natalia sighed as her Uncle and her mother talked, scrolling on her phone when she got a text.

Hennessy
quick call?

for sure.

Natalia stood up and said "i'll go to the railing for a bit. Henny is going to call me" Her mother didn't even aknowledge her, as Natalia had a quick pace to the railing of the Rooftop bar, which was a bit excluded.

her phone dialed, and she heard her best friends voice. "nat!!! oh my god" "Henny!!! i've missed you" she sighed and Heard hennessy shuffle out of her bed "Yeah, Miami's been missing you too." "Your mom or the city?" "both." henny laughed and Natalia sighed "so, my sister from another Mister, how's life in Monaco?" "Well, not interesting so far-" she was cut off as she heard a boys voice in the back of the call and laughed "Is that Noah i hear there?" "Maybe" Henny giggled a bit before saying "Look, I'll call you tomorrow morning Nat, but i have to go now" "Alright Henny, enjoy Miami life, and honor your next drink to me since i can't" "Of course. bye bye" and with that the call ended. Natalia shook her head laughing.

Arthur sat at the drivers table, listening to everyone as he saw a text on his phone, whispering to charles "i'll just have to take a quick call, be right back" to which he nodded. Arthur headed to the Railing the same time as a girl in a red dress, his phone dialed and he heard a voice "Arthur my man, how you doing?" "I'm fine, what about you?" "ah you know, life's been amazing here, wait a second" he heard his best friend yelling to his girlfriend to be a bit quieter while calling. "I'll visit you soon i promise" He said, and arthur laughed "alright, i'll leave my front door open" and his best friend snorted, "See you soon" and then he ended the call. He walked forward leaning against the railing as he heard the blonde girl talk with her friend, and then end the call.
