Full Throttle - Lando Norris

"Are you sure we are on the right floor?" Kimi asked Franco as the group walked down the hallway, searching for Allison's hotel room.

"Yeah," Franco nodded. "The lady at the reception said room 610, sixth floor," He said confidently.

Jack was carefully holding the bakery box while Ollie was holding the balloons. They were going to surprise Allison at midnight for her birthday.

"Let's just hope she is not already asleep," Jack let out a breath. "Remember what happened last time we woke her up?"

"We agreed never to bring it up again," Ollie replied.

The four drivers finally reached the door and knocked on it. Jack took off the lid of the bakery box, revealing a cake, just the one Allison liked. And Kimi got ready with the party popper.

As soon as the door opened Kimi twisted the party popper and confetti flew.

"Happy birthd...." The drivers yelled but couldn't finish the last word, and soon shock flashed across their faces and fear in Kimi's case.

The drivers froze. Standing in front of them was Toto Wolff, in white robe that the hotel provided, with confetti all over him.

"I...we..." Franco stuttered.

Kimi looked like he was going to die on the spot. That's his boss in front of them.

Ollie and Jack just took a step back for safety.

"Wrong door, boys," Toto said, sounding unamused, taking out confetti out of his hair.

"Umm.." Franco didn't know what to say.

"Am I fired?" Kimi nervously asked, earning a glare from his boss.

"We...we were told this is where Allison was staying," Jack stepped forward, still holding the cake. "Right?" He looked at Franco.

Franco nervously nodded.

"Yeah...we asked for Wolff.." Ollie added.

"She goes by Quinn, not Wolff," Toto clarified, still looking unamused.

Realization hit the young drivers, Franco earning a glare from his friends since he was the one who's mister got them in his mess.

"Am I fired?" Kimi asked again, still sounding nervous.

"No, not this time," Toto replied. "And what ia that?" He pointed at the cake Jack is holding.

"It's.. It's Allison's birthday cake, sir," Jack replied.

"I know it's my daughter's birthday cake but what is it shaped like?"

"It's um...it's Pikachu, sir," Jack clarified. "Ally's favorite pokemon."

Toto slightly raised his eyebrows and gave a small nod.

"She is in room 822," He informed the drivers. "And next time you throw confetti on me you would definitely be fired," He looked at Kimi before closing the door, a subtle smile on his face.

Allison was just about to fall asleep when there was a knock on the door. She groaned but reluctantly dragged herself to the door.

She was not expecting the nervous boys on the other side of the door.

"What..?" She looked confused.

"Oh thank god," Kimi let out a breath of relief. "It's the right room."

"Happy birthday!" The boys cheered at the same time, and Allison was really surprised. She was not expecting any of it.

"Oh my god, you guys," She couldn't help but smile, beaming with happiness. Her smile only got bigger when she saw the Pikachu cake. "Where did you get that?"

"At a bakery about an hour from here," Jack smiled.

"Thank you so much guys," She hugged all of them.

Franco's hug lasted a few seconds longer as he once again wished her, while he was also holding his phone, filming the moment.

"Can you kids keep it quite?" The next door opened and a man came out looking annoyed. "We are trying to sleep here."

"Sorry," Allison apologized and got her friends inside her room.

"Here," Kimi handed her the empty party popper.

"It's empty, Kimi."

"Yeah, I popped it at your father's face."

"What?" Allison was confused.

"Long story," Ollie took the empty popper out of her hands.

Jack lit the candles and Franco put his arm around Allison and took her to cut the cake.

"Make sure the photos are good," Jack joked. "I drove a long way to get this cake."

Allison was almost crying tears of joy when she blew the candles, the guys cheering and clapping.

"Cut me a big slice," Kimi said as he sat down.

"Is it your cheat day?" Allison let out a laugh as she cut a big piece.

"I am the reason your father is now picking confetti out of his hair. I almost got fired. I need that cake," Kimi explained and then started eating.

The rest of the boys helped themselves with the cake.

"Happy?" Franco asked as he put his arm around Allison's shoulder and stood next to her.

"Very," She smiled brightly.
