*It is the next morning you go to the airport. All the fans must have known that you were going to be flying to Australia today because the crowds were massive and you didn't have anyone to hold onto so you got very overwhelmed. You didn't know that Lando was already on the aeroplane waiting for you so you walked to the back of the plane and started to break down. Lando then pops out from around the corner and you don't realise it because your eyes are filled with tears.*
Lando: Hey y/n are you ok?
*Lando sits down next to you and wraps you in his arms.*
Lando: What happened did someone say something?
Y/n: Big crowd, no one to help me.
*You say while trying to stop crying.*
Lando: Oh sweetheart I am so sorry I wasn't there I promise that I will protect you and I will always be with you.
*You look up at Lando and he wipes your tears away your dad then walks in.*
Christian: Oh y/n I didn't realise you were having panic attacks again you needed to tell me.
Y/n: I am sorry Dad.
Christian: Don't be sorry just don't hide any secrets from me anymore.
*You and Lando then both look at each other and grin.*
Christian: Thank you Lando for comforting y/n it is very nice of you.
Lando: It's ok.
Christian: y/n I need to talk to you in private.
*You follow your dad to the front of the plane where no one is.*
Christian: I hope everything is going smoothly between you and Lando because remember if you decide to date anyone from the other teams you will lose your seat.
Y/n: Don't worry Dad there is nothing between us we are just friends.
*You walk to the back of the plane where a worried Lando is sitting on the lounge on his phone.*
Lando: Did I get you into trouble?
Y/n: No, he just said that if I find out that you are dating anyone in the paddock he will kick me off the team.
Lando: He shouldn't be able to tell you what you can and can't do with your life. Does your Mum know what he has been saying?
Y/n: No she is my manager and she told me that I had offers from Mclaren and Mercedes but when Dad found out he instantly gave me the spot on RedBull.
Lando: Why does your Dad want to control you so much?
Y/n: It is because he wants me to keep the tradition of RedBull going but I don't want to I want to explore my other options.
Lando: I completely understand where you are coming from and you have told me before that you and your Mum are very close so maybe you should sit down and tell her one day.
Y/n: Well she will be at this next race in Australia so I might tell her then.
Lando: Should I come with you or do you want to go by yourself?
Y/n: I think it will be best if I talk to her by myself.
Lando: Well we are going to land soon so maybe you can talk to her before the first practice tomorrow.
*When you land in Australia you are happy because there aren't any big crowds. Lando leads you he goes in front and your dad and brother are behind you.*
Lando: Stay close to me I will protect you we will be meeting up with our bodyguards soon.
*As you start to walk out of the doors of the airport you see The minivan out the front but you also see your bodyguards trying to hold back a big crowd of people. You try to stay calm and just look straight ahead at the car. You see Lando stopping to sign some stuff for fans so you do the same but you make sure you stay very close to Lando. After signing a few things you then head to the van hop in and get ready for the short drive to the hotel. Lando is staying in the room next to you and he helps you unpack your stuff in your room. Once everything is unpacked he kisses you on the forehead and goes to unpack his stuff. Later that day you hear someone knocking on your glass door on deck out the back. You walk over and you realise that all of your rooms are connected so you can go into Lando's room or your dad's and brother's room.*
Y/n: Lando you scared the shit out of me.
Lando: Haha I am sorry but I wanted to ask you Max, Carlos, Charles & Riccardo asked if you and I wanted to go out to dinner with them.
Y/n: I would love that.
Lando: Ok they are going to the restaurant around the corner at 7:30 I will come and knock n your door to see if you're ready in a bit.
Y/n: Ok I will go and get ready.
*You walk back into your room and you instantly know what outfit you are going to wear so you go and get changed and start putting your makeup on. You have finished getting ready so you sit down on the lounge with your laptop rewatching the Australian race from last year. You then hear a knock on your door so you jump up and let Lando inside.*
Lando: Wow, you're so beautiful.
Y/n: Thanks Lando
Lando: Are you almost ready?
Y/n: Yeah I am, can I just watch the last couple of minutes of this race?
Lando: Yeah that's okay but why do you need to watch the race you don't need to stress you are an amazing driver.
Y/n: Thanks, I just always get stressed because there are always so many crashes and I don't want one of the crashes to be me.
Lando: You are the most talented driver I know and I am sure that you will do good.
Y/n: Thanks ok I am ready.
*You go down to the lobby and Lando's car is waiting out the front for you.*
