"Guess what I saw on tik tok today" Lando said as he sat with me on facetime while I got ready to go out. 

"Oh god what" I said still focusing on my makeup.

"a clip of mini you saying that i'm your favorite driver and that you think I'm cute." He said smiling at me. I stopped doing my makeup and looked at him, my cheeks burning. 

"noooo was it the one with cody?" I said recalling the time I went to Cody Cos place to watch the grand prix and i confessed basically my love for Lando when I was 17. 

"Yep" he said still smirking at my reaction. 

"Well... I stand by what I said." I said watching Lando now be the one to blush. 

"Ok help me pick an outfit, black or white?" I asked holding up the two dresses. 

"Black for sure" He said.

"Okay stay here" I said leaving the room to change. I came back in wearing a black linen set.

"Good?" I asked showing him.

"Perfect" He smiled. 

"I have to go because I'm late but I'll text you pics!" I said grabbing my phone and running out my door.

"Ok have fun" He said. I did a kiss to the camera and then hung up the phone. I had to pause at the door and rethink what I did. Was the kiss too much? That was weird of me. Why did I do that? He probably didn't even see it.

Once I got to the restaurant I sat down with the whole cast and writers for our team dinner. Everyone was making small talk so I decided to send Lando a picture hoping to go unnoticed.

"Earth to Mia" JD said waving his hand in my face. I jumped and put my phone down.

"sorry, what were you saying?" I said turning my attention to the group. Drew who was sat across from me wiggled his eyebrows and I kicked him under the table. 

"Who you texting?" Chase asked

"No one no one" I waved them off. They eventually dropped it and moved on to a different convo. 

"I think you need to fill me in" Drew whispered to me.

"i really do" I replied.

After dinner drew came back to mine for a sleepover, which is very normal considering we live together in California. I cannot stand living alone, so when it came time to buy a my first house I proposed we got one together. We are both barely home though so it defeats the purpose. 

"Ok whats new?" He asks

"Drew emotionally I am in deep and I can't tell if I love it or hate it" I said dramatically throwing myself onto the couch. 

"why?" He said sitting next to me, lifting my feet up and placing them on his lap.

"Because I've barely met the guy. But we talk everyday, facetime everyday. It feels like i'm already in a long distance relationship with him." 

"and you like like him"

"yes... but this feels so odd to me. Normally I hook up with someone and then i'm like wait I like like you. But I just fall asleep to this guy on my phone and I like like him." I said rambling on. 

"I feel like that's good no? You are fully getting to know him before having sex with him." 

"but what if i'm just romanticizing it in my head. I do that.. a lot" I said 

"even if you are there's nothing wrong with that. Obviously he likes you or else he wouldn't be constantly talking to you. I say go with it. What's the worst that could happen?" Drew said 

"I get hurt" I said as if it was obvious.

"You do your best work with a broken heart" He said smiling at me

"That's not healthy"

"you'll survive"
