Absolutely Not! (Lando Norris)

Lando

I sat in our apartment on the sofa waiting for Belle to return. Max had made himself scarce by going out with friends we had in Monaco. I had no idea what time Belle was due back in Monaco so I just sat clock watching. I'm startled by the front door opening. She comes stumbling in with her suitcase wheeling behind her. I stand not sure how to greet her, our eyes lock and I can't read the situation. It's making me sweat even more.
"Hi" She smiles to me as she heads towards me.
"Hi" I stand in the spot as she gets closer to me.
"Lando I'm sorry" she softly says as she stands in front of me.
'Wait what? What are you sorry for?" My heart is beating out of my chest, is she going to end this? Has has she cheated? Has she scratched the McLaren?
"For how I've treated you this week. My dad told me what you did and I just didn't know how to handle it all"
"No Belle I'm sorry I should have told you. I was going to tell you but I just wanted to wait for the right time"
"I get why you did it. I suppose I just felt a little disappointed you hadn't told me. It's been a crazy week and I have a healthy relationship with my father now and it's been a lot for me to process but I spoke to a friend who talked some sense. Lando I love you" She leans in kissing my lips. How I had missed her. We stay in that moment for a little while before pulling apart.
"I love you too. I've missed you" I pick her up spinning round, a playful scream leaves her lips and I can't help but laugh. This was home.

The last two races went by so quickly and we were finally heading in to Summer break. Me and Belle were spending the week with my family on a yacht in Spain. We'd already been there a couple of days, the sun shining. We sunbathed, went swimming, visited the mainland, had good food and lots of laughter. Belle was in such a good place, this was the most content and happiest I'd ever seen her.
I woke this morning, Belle still asleep at the side of me. I throw on some shorts, quietly heading out the room and up to the upper deck. I pulled out the ring box and looked at the engagement ring as the sun glistened off the diamond. I'd collected it before we had travelled out. I had no idea how I was going to give her the ring yet, I was waiting for the right moment. I hear footsteps coming towards me, I place the ring box in my pocket in case it was Belle. My dad came and sat the side of me, pouring himself a mug of coffee.
"Morning Son"
"Morning"
"Did you sleep ok?"
"Yeah good thanks, you?"
"Yeah I did. It's good to have Belle with us. She really just fits in. She's great with your nieces and your sisters."
"She really is. Dad?"
"Yes?"
"How did you know it was the right time to propose to mum?"
"I just did. I suppose I didn't want to go another day without having her as my wife"
Me and Belle had told my family about how we came to be married and the 6 month deal we had. We thought it was best they knew, even more so now that we would be getting married for real this time. They were shocked but understanding. By the end of the first night they were even joking about how could we both get so drunk and end up married.
"Lando" I hear whispered behind me. I turn to see Belle stood there in her PJs, she looked pale and in pain.
'What's wrong?" I head to her, grabbing her in my arms.
"I've got a migraine. I'm going to skip on today's activities and head back to bed. I'm sorry" We had planned to cycle around part of the island and have a picnic on a secret spot a local had recommended.
"No don't be silly. Come on let's get you back to bed" I gently place my hand around her waist and guide her back to bed. She jumps in and I place the blankets over her. I stroke her head and watch as she closes her eyes and dozes off. I sit there a little while watching as her chest gently rises and comes back down again. The love I had for this girl, I would go to the ends of the earth to protect her. To think we hated each other to start with and now our love has grown, I couldn't imagine a future without her.
I head back to the deck where all my family were now sat having breakfast
"Is Belle ok?" My mum looks to me.
"She's got a migraine so she's going to sleep it off." I sit down next to my brother who is eating some fresh fruit.
"I hope she feels better soon" my sister in law Sav responds.
"I was thinking I'm going to propose to Belle tomorrow. I was wondering if you would help me plan it, I have an idea of what I want to do"
