Luci's pov
"You look dreadful" were the first words I heard as I unfortunately woke up from my deep sleep and felt and instant wave of regret roll over me.
Never have I ever let my self get so wasted on a night out that in the morning I still felt drunk, as well as the expected hangover.
"Why did you let me get like this?" I asked my best friend who's figure I could tell was in front of my bed, although I had not yet braved opening my eyes to confirm it.
"It was fun seeing you actually enjoy yourself for once?"
She was right, I was definitely having fun, until I took it a bit too far, of course.

After a while, I braved to open my eyes and saw that Olive had lovingly provided me with a paracetamol, drink and some cereal. A god send.
"You need to get that down you as soon as possible, then get ready. We have to get to the track in two hours and I know how long you're going to take getting ready."
I sigh at my friend, who obviously had a lot more willpower than me to get up, out of bed, and make breakfast and still sound this upbeat.
******
Eventually, I got out of the pit that was my bed and got myself looking a bit more appropriate for the day. Once I started to gain more consciousness, I began to worry more and more about the day ahead. With all honesty, I was worried I would make a fool of my self in front of all the drivers I've idolised my whole life. Although I attempted to push this thought to the back of my head while I finished my makeup in the bathroom mirror.
I threw on my most appropriate outfit for the job: a black skirt, black jumper and sheer black tights underneath with black booties.
I took one last look in the mirror to make sure the outfit was appropriate and quickly went to the door to find my best friend waiting for me to arrive.
"Took your time." She said jokily, whilst pointing toward the clock on the wall.
I laughed at her sarcastically as I put my arms through my jacket and slipped my bag over my shoulders.
"You ready for this?" Olive asked me as she opened the door and lead us to the car.
"More than ever." I replied, stepping into the passenger seat next to her.
-AUTHORS NOTE-
Sorry for the shorter chapter today, I was super busy and just wanted to get something out before the end of the day! The story is really going to start moving along the next few chapters as the girls get to the track so I hope you're looking forward to them 🤭. Anyways, put any comments if there's anything you want to see!
Love you lots,
