Absolutely Not! (Lando Norris)

Lando

Belle had been gone a week. She was staying with her family as her father recovered at home. I hadn't seen or spoke to her, I just received a text message from her telling me she was spending time with her family whilst her father recovered. She had not mentioned about the conversation I had with her father but part of me knew that Percy would have told her. She'd not mentioned it so part of me hoped that she understood why I did what I did.

My best friend Max had flown out to Monaco to spend the week with me. His girlfriend Pietra was currently back home visiting family in Brazil. I'd decided that whilst it was just me and Max that I was going to buy an engagement ring for Belle, people had questioned previously why she had not got one.
We headed to one of the many jewellery stores in Monaco, after all the wealthy liked jewellery. I'd arranged a private appointment, the last thing I wanted was people to take pictures of me and post them online. After all this was supposed to be a surprise for Belle, but more of a suck up as I feared she would be mad about me for asking her family to stay away.
"Mate I think she would like this one" Max points to an extremely large square cut diamond ring.
"I just don't think she would like it, she likes things that are not in your face, not flashy" I shrug looking at the case of rings in front of me.
"More like you don't want to spend all your money" Max laughs.
I continue looking with the helpful assistant bringing out cases of different rings, at this point I didn't think we would ever find a ring, that's when I spotted it. It was a pear drop diamond with little diamonds forming the dainty thin band.
"That's the one" I point to it. The assistant gets it out whilst I observe the beauty of the ring.
"Oh you do have taste" Max jests.
We leave the jewellery store, satisfied that we had completed our mission. The ring would be ready in a couple of weeks just in time for the summer break and our summer vacation with my family to Spain.
As we near closer to my flat my phone pings and I see a text message from Belle.

Belle

Belle: I'm heading back to Monaco tonight, We need to talk!

I stand staring at my phone, with a lump in my throat. I had an awful feeling this wasn't going to be good news.
