LOS ANGELES, UNITED STATES. FEBRUARY 2025.
Once the GRAMMYs were over, everything began to get busy for the couple. Jake attended a variety of events with Olivia to promote her new album but strongly advised her to quieten down her schedule as her tour was quickly approaching. It seemed like Olivia, or at least her management, were keen to have Olivia work as hard as possible to build her brand.
For Jake, he had countless Zoom calls with members of McLaren to discuss the upcoming season, the engineers had planned for countless upgrades that would make the car more competitive, and give the team a chance to compete against the so-called 'big three'.
Their goals this year was to have a WDC contender, Jake knew that they would prioritise Lando, he was coming into his seventh season whereas this was only Jake's second. He knew he could beat Lando though, there were just a few things he still needed to work on. One of the biggest flaws he had was his tyre management, he hadn't fully adapted yet to the long, testing Formula One races and nearer to the end, his tyres would make life a lot more difficult for him against others.
He also knew this season would be tougher, growing up with Thierry meant he knew how good of a driver the Monegasque could be. In an extremely competitive car, Thierry was definitely a threat to look out for. Despite being the best of friends outside the racetrack, the second they were racing, Thierry was his biggest rival.
"Babe, I'm back!" Olivia announced as she walked in through the door of her apartment.
Jake got up from the sofa and made his way over. "Hey Liv, how was it?" he asked after giving her a gentle kiss and handing her a coffee he had made for her arrival.
"It was good," she answered, referring to the meeting she had with her manager about the tour, "we've got the setlist sorted."
Jacob respected Olivia's work ethic so much, she was a natural performer and had thought through so many small details other artists might've missed. She cared so much about giving her fans the best possible shows and doing good in the world.
"Can you tell me?" Jake asked, making his way back down to the sofa and lying horizontally, propped up by the sofa arms.
Olivia joined him, resting her back on his chest and lounging in between his legs, his arms wrapped around her.
She let out a sigh of content and relaxation, happy to be back in her boyfriend's arms before replying. "I can tell you the original plan, but I've got a few surprises planned that not even you can find out."
She began to tell him the original set-list, rather than the twelve songs she had in her first tour, this time she would have twenty-four. He liked the order, she finished with 'get him back!' which Jake thought was a nice upbeat song to finish off with. He initially thought it would be weird to listen to songs Olivia had written about her past relationships but he was mature. He knew that they were a good source of song writing inspiration and fully supported her. He wasn't insecure of their relationship, he knew Olivia loved him and he really loved her.
