Chapter 26

The soft melody of Lando's alarm filled the room at 7:30, signalling the start of a new day. Careful not to disturb Amber's peaceful sleep, Lando quickly silenced his phone. The room remained tranquil, and Amber continued to sleep soundly.

With a quiet determination, Lando got out of bed and began to prepare for the day ahead. Aware of the early hour, he did not make any noise that could disrupt Amber's rest. As he moved about the room, Lando sent a message to his trainer, Jon, letting him know that he was up and asking him not to knock on the door to avoid waking Amber.

As Lando sat at the edge of Amber's bed, watching her sleep peacefully, a message from John, his trainer, buzzed on his phone. The text indicated that John was waiting in the lobby.

Acknowledging the message, Lando quietly rose from his perch by Amber's bed. With a thoughtful smile, he decided to leave her a note. Pulling out a piece of paper, he penned a brief message:

"Hey Amber,

Good morning! I hope you had a restful sleep. I've arranged for you to be picked up at 12. I didn't want to disturb your sleep since there wouldn't be much to do until then. Get some rest, and I'll see you later.

Take care, Lando"

With the note placed in a visible spot, Lando grabbed his backpack and left the room, leaving the peaceful ambiance of the sleeping Amber behind.In the lobby, Lando met John, his trainer, who looked at him with a raised eyebrow. "Morning, Lando. Is Amber joining us for the Grand Prix today?" John asked as they walked out of the hotel.

Lando nodded, a grin playing on his lips. "Yeah, she'll be coming. I thought it would be a nice experience for her. Plus, Monaco Grand Prix, you know?"

John chuckled, understanding the allure of the iconic race. "Fair enough. Just make sure she's got all the necessary passes and access. We don't want any hiccups on race day."

Lando assured him, "Don't worry, I've got it all sorted."

The journey to the paddock was a brief but anticipation-filled ride. Lando and Jon navigated the familiar Monaco streets, the air buzzing with the energy of race day. The iconic circuit unfolded before them as they approached the paddock entrance.

*Ambers POV*

Amber's eyes fluttered open, the gentle morning light filtering through the curtains. The unfamiliar surroundings slowly came into focus as she realized she was in a hotel room in Monaco. Memories of the previous night flooded back, and a contented smile curved her lips. She stretched, relishing the soft sheets, and then sat up, feeling the thrill of being in such an iconic location.
