This picture is so 😍😍😍 Imagine him looking at you like that though, I would literally die.

It was exactly a month ago that you got to hear that your dad had been accepted as a mechanic into the Sauber Formula One team. You were shocked to hear this, but were also very happy for him. You had always been a fan of F1, but now you were even more. Your dad realised how dedicated you were and said that he'd try to get you to see his work place. You were so excited, but you also knew that there was a chance that they'd refuse to let you in.  You were going to see the race in Australia anyway, so you were already very happy. Yet, you still hoped that you could somehow see your favourite drivers.

You were currently being driven to the circuit by your dad. "Excited about the race?"

"Of course I am!" You exclaimed happily, "I am really looking forward to it."

"You know Wehrlein isn't going to drive, right?" He asked.

"What? I didn't know that..." I said.

"Seriously? That's bad."

"I have literally flown across the whole world to be here, and you're indicating that I am a bad fan?" I said, mock shocked. I knew he was just joking.

"We're almost there. I have a surprise for you."

"A surprise? I love surprises!" I happily exclaimed, "So, what is my surprise, dad?"

"You'll see, you'll see."

A little while later your dad finally parked the car in what seemed like a private garage for all the staff members. You jumped out of the car and jumped up and down because you were really excited about today.

"Come on, I'll take you to your surprise," your dad said, while linking your arms together.

"I'm really proud of you, you know?"

"You are?" Your dad looked surprised to hear this, "but I'm gone almost all the time."

"Yes, but you still make time for us. Besides, you're finally doing what you've always dreamed of doing. I'm very proud of you."

"Oh come here, that really made my day, darling." He said and pulled you into a quick hug. "But we have to be quick though, gotta get to your surprise."

-

"Dad, I can't believe you've taken me here! This is so cool!" You said and looked around, wondering what it must feel like to be a part of this world. He had taken you to the pit lane and gave you a small tour through the Sauber paddock as well.

"I thought you would like it," he said before introducing you to some of his colleagues. They were all very friendly and helpful.

"This is by far the best day of my life, thanks again. It really means a lot to me."

"Oh look! Marcus, Antonio! do you have a moment?" You were shocked to see them making their way over to you. You looked at your dad with wide eyes and mouth wide open, while he just chuckled at your reaction.

"Close your mouth darling, you'll catch flies," he said and turned his attention back to the two men who were now stood before you.

"Guys, this is my daughter (y/n). (y/n), this is Marcus," he said while nodding at Marcus. You shook his hand and said hello.

"And this is Antonio, he's driving instead of Pascal today," your dad explained.

Your breath hitched in your throat as you looked at him. He looked handsome and young.

"Ciao bella," Antonio said before extending his hand for you to shake.

You blushed and shyly, took his hand in yours and shook it, "(y/n). Nice to meet you."

"Look, I'd love to talk to you more, but I have to go prepare myself for the race." Marcus explained.

"Me too," Antonio added.

"Oh, I understand! Well, good luck you two! I'm sure you'll do great!" You said.

"Well, I gotta go too, darling, see you after the race, yes?" your dad asked to which you nodded. After that he walked away to get to work.

When you turned around, you noticed that Antonio still hadn't moved and was still standing in front of you.

"Not that I mind the company, but don't you have to go?" You asked.

"There's something about you (y/n)," Antonio said, disregarding your question, while leaning closer to you. Your eyes widened at this. He's tall, handsome, he smelled nice, and he was also very charming. What could a woman want more?

"Can I get a hug for good luck?" He asked all the while smirking. You wanted to roll your eyes at his boyish behaviour but decided against it and wrapped your arms around him.

"Thanks, I'm sure I'll do great after this," he said, winked and left, but not before putting a crumpled piece of paper in your hand. As you opened the paper you saw the had written down his number and an invitation to a date.

- Call me. Antonio.

Well, you most definitely would call him.
