RED LIGHTS | LANDO NORRIS

All Very Confusing

"Use your legs Carlos!"

Charles felt like he was about to fall backwards from the weight of the couch that he had lifted in his arms. He barely stayed steady on the flight of steps as Carlos attempted to move up.

"I'm trying mate," he strained, "Lewis is holding up the line!"

Lewis was in front of the queue, carrying two boxes of clothes up the stairs. He could barely see in front of them from its height.

All of the boys started arguing on the steps. Carlos and Lewis mainly went at it with an occasional plea to keep moving from Charles.

Lia came out from the door and silenced them immediately.

"Get in the house before Charles falls over!"

She shooed them inside as the mentioned man sighed in relief. He thanked her as the trio passed.

All of them were helping her move into her new house in Monaco. Even a couple of their girlfriends had come to help. It didn't take much convincing to make the decision to relocate since most of them already lived here. Plus, over summer break she'd spent a lot of time going back and forth to see Lando, so this move made everything easier for everyone in the end, including Lia.

She looked out the front door and saw Pierre and Seb working together to unload everything from the moving trucks. They took the boxes out while they waited for the others to return to carry the furniture inside. They handed a couple boxes to Charlotte and Lily, who passed her with warm smiles. Lia returned the expression and followed them inside.

To her left was the dining room, where Daniel and Max were now arguing over how to assemble a table.

"No Max look!" Daniel aggressively pointed to one of the boards, "This one is the same size as this."

They continued to argue over it as Lia's eyes drifted to the archway of the room. Checo was standing there with the instruction manual in his hand, reading it over with a confused look.

Lia laughed and went to the right where the living room was. Alex and George were against the back wall hooking up the TV while Carlos and Charles adjusted the couch.

"Do we put it here?" Carlos asked upon spotting the woman. She nodded and they finally set the couch down in its spot. They both huffed from exertion before brushing past her to get more furniture.

Lia heard her name being called from the kitchen. She made her way there to find Lily, Charlotte, and Kelly unpacking some of the boxes. Little Penelope was sitting in a high chair with some toys and snacks.

Kelly held up a stack of plates, "Do you care where these go?"

"Um...you can just put them up there."

She pointed to one of the cabinets behind Kelly. The woman nodded and went to work unpacking.

"Thank you guys for doing this," Lia said sincerely, "I don't think I could've gotten it all in one trip without you."

Lily pulled her into a small side hug, assuring her it was no problem.

"Maybe when you get settled then the four of us can go to the city together," Charlotte suggested. She handed a few plates to Kelly, "A girls night."

Lia smiled and agreed. P started to incoherently babble and reached her arms up to the woman. Lia pulled her out of the high chair and held her against her hip.

"Let's go see what the big strong boys are doing yeah?" she whispered, tickling P's sides.

The two of them left the kitchen and went outside to where most of the guys had gathered. They were all standing around the truck with either their arms crossed or hands on their hips. Sebastian scratched the top of his head as he stared into the depths of the truck.
