Unexpected love | Lewis Hamilton

T H I R T Y N I N E

I woke up to see my mother, or I think she was my mother, at least she and those other people who claimed to be my family said that.

My mother smiled at me as she'd seen I had woken up, I smiled back at her as she seemed so nice. Daniel was coming today with my supposed daughter, wow that felt weird. Did I have a daughter?? How did she look like in real life, I mean I'd seen pictures of her from what Daniel had shown me but I wanted to see for myself In real life so Daniel was away picking my daughter up and they'd come at around 9 and right now it was 8:50 so I was just honestly waiting for them to come. In the meanwhile I was just talking with my mother, who seemed to be in quite the cheerful mode.

She was definitely happier than she was the first time I met her yesterday, she spent the whole night yesterday crying and laughing from time to time when her and Daniel told me stories from stuff I'd done.

I had to admit I seemed to be quite a cheerful and positive girl.

When Daniel and a little girl arrived the little girl started screaming ' mommy ' as she jumped on the bed and hugged me. I got surprised as I didn't know what to do but I then hugged her back, she didn't have my eyes but her hair did quite look like mine if I was honest. She seemed to have quite a few things from her face that was from mine, although she looked very alike as someone I had on my mind but I just couldn't remember who or what they looked like. I could only see someone who looked a lot like her in some ways when I looked at her but I couldn't remember what that person looked like, what their name was or anything about them. It was like in the back of my mind I knew, but something stopped me from remembering well outside of the memory loss I had.

I played some with the little girl as she sat in my lap on the bed, I did some hand gestures with her and did some games etc and she seemed to really enjoy it. Which made me glad as well, I might've not remembered my daughter or even the fact that I had one but it seemed right when I was playing with her so I guess it was some truth in what Daniel and my supposed mother said.

When the little girl left with my mother to go to the cafeteria to get snacks I asked Daniel.

' who's her father?? '

' Anastasia we can speak about that later but right now try to focus on getting your memory back ' Daniel said.

Okay weird. Why didn't he want to tell me??

I just dropped it as I knew he wouldn't tell me so I figured I'd just drop it and hopefully get to know that soon. Or at least maybe remember it about who was her father, hopefully.

With Lewis when he dropped Ari off:

' can I please see her Daniel ' I asked.

' I think it's best if she doesn't meet you Lewis, I don't want her to hurt again ' Daniel said.

' but Daniel please I have to see her '

' and why do you have to?? ' he asked.

' I don't know why I just have to okay! '

' your married Lewis, I know you only got married yesterday so I'm gonna say it again to you, your married so go home and be with your wife instead of worrying about another woman who you chose to break up with before '

' Daniel please '

' no Lewis, go now I'll drop Ari off tonight '

I stood there as Daniel took Ari's hand and started walking towards Anastasia's room, but I followed them when they didn't see and I peeked though the window and I saw Anastasia and Ari playing on the bed. Anastasia seemed lost, I could see it in her eyes but she also seemed so happy to be around Ari.

I stood there for a good while just watching and admiring before Nora called me and I eventually went away from there, but the image of Anastasia and Ari playing was still in my mind.

The whole car ride home I was listening to Anastasia's favorite playlist that she had made on my Spotify account because she often used mine when we were together. Especially when we were doing long car rides, she used to love to sing along to these songs in the car and I would always listen to her singing admiring her voice as it calmed me down a lot.

A month later..

I was walking in the paddock with Seb just talking about the race and some outside paddock things that had happened, I hadn't seen Anastasia since that day in the hospital. I hadn't been able to, Daniel still didn't think it was a good idea because he didn't want her to get back the bad memories.

Although as I was walking there I noticed a girl walking in the paddock with Kelly, Charlotte and Kika. It was Anastasia, she wore a light blue floor length, long sleeved dress with some sneakers like she always used to and a high braid like always. She was laughing as she walked with them and then I saw Tiffany also walking with them and they all left Tiffany outside the Mercedes garage as she was gonna stay there as they continued to the garages they were staying at. I quickly ran to Tiffany the minute Anastasia left for what I assume was the Red Bull garage.

' Tiffany! ' I yelled as she stopped.

' Hi Lewis, what's up? '

' was that Anastasia I just saw?? ' I asked.

' yeah, it's really sad what happened to her recently but she seems to be doing really good '

' was she feeling happier?? Did she remember something? '

' well happy she was but from what she said she didn't remember anything new ' tiff said smiling at me before Valtteri yelled for her and she excused herself.

I decided to go past the Red Bull hospitality to see if I would see her in there, much to my luck I did see her there. She looked more beautiful than ever, she sat outside the hospitality reading a book, like she always did to get the time over with. I saw Ari was sleeping in her stroller besides Anastasia and I smiled. God she was the most beautiful woman I'd ever laid my eyes on, although I went before she could see me standing there and watching her.

Later through the day I saw her multiple times going around the paddock, laughing, talking to people, smiling a lot and generally seeming to be in good spirits which made me happier than I ever could be.

She was happy which was all that mattered to me, Daniel even told me she'd eaten quite good these past weeks. If only she knew how proud I was over her. I kept walking by the Red Bull hospitality and garage the whole day just to see a glimpse of her face & what she was doing. I could admit I looked quite creepy doing it but I didn't care, I just loved seeing her face. Like I always did, she was just too pretty and cute for me not to love seeing her face. God how I missed waking up next to her, seeing her face the first thing I did in the morning.

As I later walked by the Red Bull hospitality I saw she had taken her braid out and she had her hair loose, god I loved when she'd had her hair in a braid and then let it out. Her hair got so wavy then, it was so beautiful.
