Not everyone knows how to save themselves. Some are victims to their own mind.
Lottie Folkweather knew that all too well, as hard as she tried she needed someone else to save her, little did she know, he would.
Lottie is a new presenter in the world...
Narrator: After a day of waiting, on friday night the text came. As he had taken his time doubt had started to creep into Lottie's mind but as soon as the notification popped up on her phone it all dissipated into thin air. The message was from an unknown number and read:
Heyyy it's Lando, Monday at 11am hotel lobby, dress code casual, hope to see you there :)
Her face lit up with excitement as she read it causing Rachel (who she was having dinner with) to ask why she looked so excited. Lottie played it off as Karis telling her news of her signing a publisher deal to publish her new book, which Karis had in fact told her earlier that day. The whole dinner was amazing for Lottie as not only had she received the message from Lando, Rachel had been congratulating her on her first two days at sky f1 and how she had already captured the hearts of fans, it really made Lottie happy as it was one of the first things in a long time to really go right in her life and for once things were seeming mere perfect but now the question was how long would it last.
On monday Lottie woke up bright and early to prepare for her little meeting with Lando. Once fully awake and after taking all of her allergy medication, she headed for the shower so that her hair would be soft as possible and she didn't dare accidentally smell bad. Once showered she moved onto skincare and makeup, she was careful not to wear too much makeup and she wanted to highlight her natural beauty as well as not seem to be trying as hard as she most certainly was. As she waited for her hair to dry it was time to choose an outfit, the part she found the most difficult. At first Lottie just stared at the clothes she had not yet packed into her suitcase for her flight this evening. She stood there staring for a good twenty minutes before finally deciding to try an outfit on, which to her luck she liked.

Once dressed and accessorised she moved onto brushing her hair and adding a slight wave to the bottom with her curler as it was what in her opinion she suited best.
Lottie pov: I am all ready to meet up with Lando, and I can't tell if I am more nervous or excited. Karis doesn't even know about it yet, which feels odd as I tell her everything (well accept all that stuff I don't) but I didn't want to fully admit my feelings incase being well and truly crushed by disappointment, a feeling a I heavily associated with men. Looking down to my phone I noticed the time, it's already 10:55, I better get going.
I reach the hotel lobby at 10:59, and notice I'm here before Lando. I wonder if he cares enough to be on time? As the clock ticks go 11 I hear to sound of a lift opening and to my surprise Lando is rushing out of it, I suppose he does care? As soon as he spots me he plays it cool acting as though he hasn't just rushed down here. "You're here" He says stating the obvious, maybe he is as nervous as me. "Did you think I wouldn't show up?" I ask teasing him for the remark, again a strange confidence taking over my body. "Who knows, since we have really properly met have we?" He is right in what he is saying. "On a more personal level no we haven't" again I tease him, why am I teasing him? I ask my self as my mouth and mind are in conflict. "Hi I'm Lando, nice to meet you" "Hi Lando, I am Lottie it's also very nice to meet you" I am screaming in the inside at the gesture, he wants to introduce himself personally to me, away from work and the fame of f1, just to simple old me as just Lando, I feel insane for how much I am loving this. "Would you care to join me on a drive to a mystery place?" he asks with a cheeky grin, I find myself staring at his smile. "Of course I would, it would be my pleasure" I play along with the tone "Well then follow me this way my lady" He puts out his hand for me to take for guidance, I happyily place mine in his as his use of the words my lady make me blush. How is this happening right now. A boy is actually making me catch feelings.
