I had to find Grace immediately. It was the Abu Dhabi GP aka the last GP of the season and I had just found out something insane. I had been throwing up for about a week and I needed to know why. My ovary stopped hurting too and I knew something had happened. Eventually I met up with Grace in a hidden spot in the paddock.
"Grace, I don't know if I should be happy or not... I'm pregnant!!" I said as I showed her the pregnancy test.
"Holy shit... Lex, I'm pregnant too..." she said. She was WHAT???
"Wait, what do you mean you're pregnant too???"
"I'm pregnant, Lex. Come on, I'll show you" she said as she pulled me to Danny's driver room and showed me the test. Holy shit she was actually pregnant
"Oh my god... we're pregnant at the same time..."
"We are... so, how did yours happen?"
"Grace!!!"
"What?? I'll tell you how mine happened"
"Fine. Okay, so it happened on my birthday morning. I was like really horny and I was whimpering and moaning in my sleep with my ass in the air like a cat in heat and then Lando fucked me. I mean it's kinda planned because I did tell Lando I was coming off the pill so we could have a little one but I didn't expect it to work this quickly... I thought I would have to be off it for like a month; not a few days"
"Well at least Lando is kind of prepared for it... me and Danny haven't planned for one at all. You know the Bora Bora holiday we went on last week during you and Lando's birthday week?"
"Yeah, I don't appreciate that you went there during our birthday week"
"Shut up, you went there in August. Anyways, we were on the beach and it was basically empty so we had a speaker and we were wearing matching swimwear. Like I was wearing a tiny red bikini and he was wearing some red trunks. Anyways, we were playing some Tay Tay, specifically Vigilante Shit, and then The Weeknd came on and we had a full on makeout sesh and then we went back to our hotel room and fucked all night long. I thought we used protection but I guess not..."
"Well you should fucking know if you used protection or not!!! I don't think it exactly feels the same!!!"
"You wouldn't know anyways!!! Lando took your virginity and you were on the pill anyways!!! You've never had to use a condom!!!"
"Yeah but I could tell the fucking difference!!! It's literally rubber instead of skin!!!"
"Are we having a pregnant lady fight?"
"Yeah, I think so... anyways, how are we gonna tell the boys? I don't know how Lan is gonna react..."
"Danny is gonna freak out... I don't know..."
"Well if our boys leave us we'll just marry each other" I said with a laugh which made Grace laugh too
"Thanks, Lex. We're in this together, right?"
"Yeah, we're in this together. And I promise our little ones can be best friends growing up"
"I would love that. I'm sure Danny & Lando would love that too"
"They definitely will" I said as I checked the time. "The boys are gonna be finishing up the race in a minute. Good luck on telling Danny"
"Same with you telling Lando" she said. I was absolutely terrified but I had to tell Lando. We had been talking about this for months... Surely he would be happy... right?
Lando came back to his driver room and I was sitting there with my leg shaking.
"Baby, you okay?" He said as he sat down next to me
"I have a little surprise for you..."
"Baby, you know I love surprises! What is it?"
"don't go absolutely crazy but..." I said as I grabbed the test and put it in his hands. It took him a moment to realise what it was and then his eyes filled with tears and his lip started quivering as he looked at me
"I'm... I'm gonna be a daddy...?" He said with his voice shaking. It brought tears to my eyes.
"Yeah..." I said with my voice cracking as we both burst into tears in each other's arms. They weren't sad tears at all. We were both so overwhelmed with joy and it was the only way we could get it out. When we both finally stopped crying we wiped each other's tears and he pressed his lips against mine for a bit.
"I love you so much, Lex"
"I love you too, baby. don't get incredibly excited because you know my family's history with ovarian cysts and miscarriages... but this is why I've been throwing up so much recently. and why my cyst pain started going away"
"We'll just have to take it one day at a time. I'm here for you, no matter what happens"
"hopefully the little baby stays through... I've got a weird but good feeling about this"
"I hope so too, baby girl. I can't imagine our lives without this little one in it. Let's just enjoy the moment and cherish every second we have together"
"I hope it's a little girl. I know how much you wanna be a girl dad"
"A girl dad, huh? Well, who knows what we're having yet. But either way, I know I'll be the best dad I can be. You're the most important person in my life, Lex"
"I don't think I'll be the most important when we have our little baby. I think I might be second most important"
"Oh, baby girl. You'll always be the most important person in my life. But it's true that our little one will change everything. We'll just have to make sure we balance our time and priorities well together"
"I know they definitely won't be able to hear you considering the fact that they're about the size of an atom as I'm only like 2 weeks pregnant but do you wanna maybe talk to them...?"
"Definitely..." he said as he put his lips to my stomach. "Hey, baby girl or boy... it's your daddy... I know you won't be able to hear me yet but I just want you to know that I love you and your mummy more than anything in the world" he said. He nearly brought tears to my eyes.
"I don't think we should tell anyone about this until I'm at least 2 months pregnant. maybe even 3 months pregnant. I don't wanna announce anything and then have a miscarriage or something"
"That makes sense, but we should definitely tell our parents. They'll want to know and be there for us through this journey. Plus, they can help with doctor appointments and other things that might come up"
"tell your parents. you know mine haven't talked to me in ages. they hardly exist anymore"
"Alright, baby. I'll respect your wishes. But please remember that they're still your parents, and they might want to know about this special news eventually"
"they can find out when the world finds out. only your family get to know early. and some of the other drivers on the grid which we incredibly trust not to say anything like Danny, Alex, George, Oscar & Carlos. Oh and Grace already knows... don't say anything to Danny yet but Grace is pregnant too"
"Oh my god, so the babies can be best friends growing up like we were"
"Exactly. It would be nice for our little one to have a best friend since birth"
"I can't wait... we're gonna have the most beautiful little baby"
Lex 🩵
