Over the past 20 or so hours since qualifying had happened, lita had a mini celebration for with a tub of Ben and jerries cookie dough ice cream

And failed to get Daniel back for scaring her...

The air was clammy and there wasn't a cloud of rain to be seen in sight which was good for many of those that had paid to watch in the grand stands

And of course the bubbly sun had come to say hello.

Letting out a frustrated sigh as a single piece of hair kept falling down over her eyes, lita almost had the urge to grab a pair of scissors off one of the tables and cut it off

It was just a piece of hair right? It'll grow back eventually...

Almost as if he had a lita detector, the familiar sight of the Dutchmen came into sight swivelling past high alert engineers and all the other special people that helped make the team what it was for a race

"Nice hair" he grinned earning a scowl back from the brunette

"It's your fault" lita huffed out as she tried to find a bobby pin

"How is it my fault?" He rolled his eyes as he peered down at her

"It just is" lita shrugged before letting out a 'ah-ha!' Before sliding the nuisance of a strand back

"Where's your balaclava?" Max gave her a pointed look before she lifted it off the desk and showed him

"Your helmet?" Pointing behind him, she looked at it on the shelf

"Your gloves?" Rolling her eyes, lita finally turned round to look at him properly

"I know where everything is you know" she crossed her arms and let out a huff

"Oh really?" A sly grin fell onto his lips as the sight of the tires being prepared lingered in the background

"Yes." The honey coloured eyes looked up into the ocean like ones

"Then Where's your shoes?" Pausing she looked around

"Shit-"

It didn't seem as if the f1 gods were on litas side as she speed down the straight as the car roared lightly

During the first 20 laps it seemed as if the Ferraris were able to back her down for once to p4 which you can sure she was livid about

And of course Hamilton was on her ass for her current positions

Couldn't she catch a break?

"Okay lita Hamilton only needs to close a gap of 2.43 before he'll be able to attack" Alex's voice rang through the radio

"Can't you just go ask Toto to tell him to hold position?" She offered lazily as to took the 6th turn

"No." She could feel his eye roll through the radio

"What if I get him those strawberry donuts-" she let out a grumble as Alex cut her off

"We both know that didn't work last time" letting out a huff she stepped on the throttle cause a squeal

"There's only 5 laps left so just hold, the Ferrari infront is a good 5.874 seconds ahead" turning off her radio lita let out a breath

At least max was in first place so it would still be a win for the team

Plus she loved an even number and you can't win every race right?"

After all that fighting, lita was able to keep her position of p4 against a very persistent Lewis

Pulling off her helmet and balaclava she was immediately pulled into a kiss by max

Laughing slightly she pulled back "congratulations verstappen"

"What can I say Lonnie? It was as easy as cake" he smirk cockily

"You can't bake cake" she scrunched her nose

"Not the point" he placed a small kiss on her forehead before he was pulled away to do an interview before podium

Pushing back her messy hair lita let out a sigh and smiled/congratulated other drivers as she walked to get weighed

After stepping off the scale after getting the clear she turned to go watch the the podium

She always enjoyed the way Max's eyes light up when he catches sight of her but before she could walk off a hand grabbed onto her bicep

Looking up she locked eyes with the familiar sight of forest green ones

lando.

"Go time at 8 yeah?" He grinned slightly

"You got it."
