This Ain't A Fairytale- Lando Norris

28. Tell me that we'll be just fine

"Are you sure you still want to come to Monza?" Lando asked as he stood packing his suitcase.

"Yeah... if that's still okay?" Hannah nodded.

Lando looked at her in surprise. "Of course it's okay, you know I love it when you guys come with me. I just wasn't sure if you'd want to."

"I feel fine, nothing's changed really has it?" Hannah pointed out.

"I mean everything has changed." Lando pointed out. "But yeah, I see what you mean."

"Besides, we already told Isla we were going to be there and she'd get to sing happy birthday to Carlos. She'll be heartbroken if you tell her she can't go now." Hannah pointed out.

"Okay." Lando nodded, putting the last couple of things in his case. "You ready to go then?"

Hannah nodded, going to lift the case she'd packed for her and Isla off the bed, only for Lando to appear beside her and swat her hands away.

"You're not lifting that." He shook his head at her. "Go and get Isla, I'll put everything in the car."

They'd made it to the airport without incident, both of them sat very quietly in the car and still lost in their own thoughts. They hadn't really spoken about it, apart from the brief discussion in the middle of the night when she'd told him, and neither of them knew what to say.

They'd parked up at the airport and headed to the jet, joining Zak and Andrea, for the short flight down to Monza.

Isla had been absolutely delighted to see Zak, taking his hand as she clambered up the steps onto the plane. Hannah sincerely hoped Zak hadn't got any plans to get any work done on this flight because there was no way Isla was going to let him get any peace.

It had all been going fine, up until Zak had come and sat down opposite her and Lando with his coffee. The strong smell completely overpowered her in the small cabin of the jet.

She'd taken a couple of deep breaths, trying to settle her stomach with very little success, then gone scrambling out of her seat when she realised she was losing the battle.

"Lando, move." She got out through gritted teeth, kicking his legs that were blocking her bath.

"What?" He looked at her blankly.

"Move." She tried again and this time he finally got it, quickly standing up to let her past.

"Can you keep an eye on Isla? Just for a second?" Lando asked Zak, eyes on Hannah as she disappeared into the bathroom.

He didn't wait for Zak to answer, figuring there wasn't really too much trouble she could get into on the plane in the space of then minutes anyway.

He scooped a bottle of water up as he passed through, cracking the door to the bathroom open. He could feel Zak watching him as he slipped inside.

Hannah was crouched on the floor beside the toilet and didn't even look up when he came in. He scooped her hair off her face, rubbing her back gently.

"I'd forgotten how much fun this is." She groaned.

"I'll tell Zak to get rid of the coffee." Lando promised. "You wanna stay in here for a bit?" He unscrewed the cap off the water bottle, holding it out to her.

She held her hand up for a second, sticking her head back over the toilet as her stomach rolled again.

She sat back up again with a groan a moment later, taking the bottle of water from him. "Feeling better?" He asked, helping her up.

"How did I forget how rough I felt with Isla?" She groaned.

"It'll pass." He reassured her. "I'd better get out there, god only knows what Zak and Andrea think we're up to in here."
