On my own-lewis Hamilton

Chapter 14

Qualifying finally finished with the team getting a 1-2 and dad on pole position for tomorrow.

I was really happy for him especially since he needed to have the best chance of winning tomorrow.

He celebrated with the team which everyone was overjoyed by the result they managed to get as a team.

They really deserved the team had worked so hard to make sure they have the best car and the best chance of getting another title.

"Well done" I say as I see him walk through the garage

"Thank you sweetheart" he says as he wonders over to the rest of the team.

I sat inside his drivers room for the rest of the evening waiting to finally leave. I felt cold so I put on dad's jumper that I brought. I loved wearing it as it was really oversized and comfy.

I was just on my phone for the next hour or so as I felt super bored. That was one of the most annoying sides about going to a race was waiting around for ages after as he has meetings and goes through data. Especially when he never lets me do or go anywhere.

"You ready to go?" Dad says as soon as he walks in

"Yep" I say standing up getting ready to leave

"Are you wearing my jumper?"

"I was cold" I say shrugging my shoulders as I realise the jumper goes down longer than my shorts.

"Ok come on let's go" he says while walking out of his room

We finally make it outside into the paddock as we wonder to the car. It's pretty much empty in the paddock apart from a few engineers and mechanics who are now finally starting to leave.

"So I was thinking about letting you go to the last race next week if you want?" I hear dad ask

"Wait really?" I ask in shock

"Yeah it's the last race of the season and I want you to be there."

"I'll come, any opportunity to be able to miss school" I say happily

"Well I want you to do some school work next week because you're missing so much and I don't want you to be behind"

"But I'm not even missing anything they just teach us stuff we don't need to learn anyway" I say annoyed

"I don't care emma it's not up for discussion" he says

We finally make it back to the car and finally drive back to the hotel. To be honest I don't even feel that tired since I got up quite late.

"Get ready for bed em" I hear dad say as soon as I get in the hotel room.

"But I'm not even tired can I at least just stay up for a little bit longer"

"Fine but you've only got half an hour and don't ask me for more time after that" he says giving in

"Ok thanks" I say happily

I honestly just wish I could choose when to go to bed like I am old enough.

I go in my room as I go on my phone for what feels like 5 minutes before dad comes in again.

"Times up get ready for bed" he says while standing in my room

"I swears it only been 5 minutes" I complain

"That's because you're glued to your phone, now get off of it and get ready."

"Fine" I say as I get ready as slow as possible like normal.
