*Remi's p.o.v*
I decided to sing one of my own songs for the performance, I know Lando has been dying to hear one, and hopefully it will give him the push to do well today. I messaged Scooter too let him know and he was fine with it and send me over the track.

"Remi are you ready?" Zak asked, I nodded, "I'm always ready to perform." I smiled. He grinned, "well let's get you going, Stefano has hired some dancers for the last performance, so you mind having them on stage with you?" He asked, I shook my head, "no that's not a problem, I'll have to play them the track before I go in though so they get an idea of how the song goes." I stated.

We arrived at the stage, "I'll leave you here, got to head back and get the boys ready, break a leg." Zak smiled and embraced me into a hug before leaving. I met up with Stefano and the dancers and played them the track, they loved it. "Do you dance?" Meg one of the dancers asked. I nodded, "Yeah, why?" I questioned. "I think it would be great if you danced with us." She suggested, I stood there for a moment thinking about it, "yeah what the hell, haven't danced in a while so we will see how it goes." I giggled.

"Right I'm going to give my speech and then you guys are on, good luck everyone." Stefano said before heading on to the stage. Me and dancers stood back and watched from the wings.

"Welcome everyone to the 2024 Miami Grand Prix." He announced, the applause echoed around the whole circuit, it was honestly crazy how many fans were here today.

"I just want to say a massive good luck to all the teams and the 20 drivers racing today, I wish you all the best, so with our further or do let me introduce you all to the upcoming artist and the girlfriend of our McLaren superstar Lando Norris.....Remi Walsh." He cheered.

I smiled widely, as I approached the stage, everyone cheered and whistled and I couldn't be happier to be where I am today. I glanced down towards the drivers and spotted Lando smiling at me widely, I gave him a massive smile, "Hello Miami." I yelled into the mic, the crowd screamed.

"Hope you all are having a brilliant day, I'm going to sing one of my own songs today, this is an exclusive you are the first to hear this....this is water." I announced.

Make me sweat, make me hotter
Make me lose my breath, make me water
Make me sweat, make me hotter
Make me lose my breath, make me water

Normally
I could keep my cool, but tonight I'm wildin'
I'ma be, yeah
In a dangerous mood, can you match my timing? Mm
Telling me (yeah)
That you really 'bout it, why try hide it? Oh
Talk is cheap, so show me
That you understand how I like it

If I give you my time (ooh)
Can you snatch my soul from me?
I don't wanna wait, come take it
Take me where I ain't been before
Can you blow my mind?
Set off my whole body, whole body

I started dancing in sync with the dancers, it felt strange dancing again, but I've missed it.

Make me sweat, make me hotter
Make me lose my breath, make me water
Make me sweat, make me hotter
Make me lose my breath, make me water
Hopefully
You can last all night, don't get too excited (ooh)
Oh, privacy
You ain't gotta go nowhere, you can stay inside it
Can you blow my mind? Oh
Set off my whole body
If I give you my time (if I give you my time)
Can you snatch my soul from me?
I don't wanna wait, come take it
Take me where I ain't been before (before)
Can you blow my mind? (Blow my mind)
Set off my whole body, whole body (Haaibo!)
Make me sweat, make me hotter
Make me lose my breath, make me water

Make me lose my breath, make me water
Make me sweat, make me hotter
Make me lose my breath, make me water
Make me sweat, make me hotter
Make me lose my breath, make me water

I finished singing and smiled brightly, I glanced down at Lando who was cheering louder than anyone, "thank you everyone, I hope you all enjoy the race and drivers good luck." I smiled before leaving the stage, I gave the dancers a quick hug before departing and heading back towards McLaren. But before I could even step inside Lando picked me up and spun me around.

"You did amazing, that song was so good and the dancing Jesus Christ almost gave me a heart attack." He breathed, I giggled, "thanks baby, I knew you'd like it, anyways you better get going, good luck you are going to smash it." I smiled and kissed him softly.

He smiled and ran towards his car, I walked over to the pit wall next to Zak, "hey darling that was incredible well done." He congratulated and gave me a quick hug, "thanks Zak, I'm going to head up to hospitality I'll see you after." I said and began walking away when he stopped me, "Stay down here you can help us on here, Lando said you are amazing at karting and cars, here put these on." He said handing me over a headset.

I sat down next to Zak, it felt so surreal being sat here, I watched on the screen as the cars got into there positions. And one by one the lights flash red........lights out and off they went.

Lando was now in P2, his tyres were looking great and strong, with 10 laps to go all we could hope for was that Max had to box and Lando could easily be first.

"Come on Lando." Zak urged, I stared at screen with hope, "box, box I have a puncture" Max announced, my eyes widened, "oh my god it's happening!!" I squealed. "Lando, Max is boxing you'll be in P1" Will said to Lando over the radio.

It was the final lap, all of McLaren were on the edge of their seats, "he's going to do it." I squealed, the team ran up to the fence next to the finish and started cheering loudly. Lando crossed the checkered flag in p1, his first ever win in formula 1.

Zak and I smiled proudly at eachother and jumped up and down in joy, "he did it." We cheered. The whole team ran towards the grid to see him, as soon as he saw us he ran over to us and jumped over the gate, into the teams arms, they lifted him up and chucked him u owns down in celebration, I could see the tears in his eyes, he was so proud of himself and I was so happy for him. The team put him back down and he made his way over to me embracing me in a tight hug, "I can't believe it." He chuckled, "you did amazing baby, I am so proud of you." I smiled with tears pouring down my face. "Are you crying?" He chuckled, I laughed, "yeah I believe I am, I'm just so happy for you." I smiled wiping the tears from my face.

"I'm so happy you were here for this....I love you Remi." He said, my eyes widened....oh my god he said it, "I love you too Lando." I grinned, he embraced me into a tight hug and kissed me softly before he had to leave for podium.

As I watched him from the crowd hold his trophy I couldn't be happier, he as the love of my life. And I knew we were going to have one hell of a future together.

*Unknown p.o.v*

"Sir we found her" one of my team said.

"Where is she?" I asked, spinning around in my chair to look at him.

"She's in Miami with her boyfriend, but she lives in England, what would you like us to do sir?" He asked.

I sat there in silence, "Find her and bring her to me." I ordered, he nodded and left.

I glanced at the photo on my desk, "You'll be home....where you belong!" I smirked.
