The Deception ~ LN4 by pqndvra_

When Mercedes, a solo traveler and commercial pilot, finds herself dining alone in Monaco, she never expects the evening to take such a surreal turn. But across the room, she spots Lando Norris, the famous Formula 1 driver, trying to enjoy a quiet dinner away from the constant media buzz. Realizing how little genuine human interaction he likely experiences, Mercedes decides to pretend she doesn't recognize him, offering him a rare moment of normalcy. Their casual conversation about racing, aviation, and life on the road quickly evolves into a connection neither of them anticipated. As the evening unfolds, Mercedes and Lando share an unexpected camaraderie, with Mercedes carefully navigating the line between fan and stranger. But when the truth comes out and Lando realizes she knew exactly who he was all along, it sparks something neither of them expected. Their encounter, initially born out of a small deception, soon turns into a bond that transcends their high-profile worlds. The Deception is a heartwarming and unexpected story of two people from different worlds finding comfort in each other's company - and discovering that sometimes, the truth isn't as important as the connection that forms in its place. *THIS IS BASED IN THE YEAR 2029*

❝Tell me you don't want this. Don't want me,❞ he murmurs, voice low, steady despite the way his chest is rising. ❝And we'll stop.❞ My arms slip around his shoulders and he looks down at me with so much intensity that my own voice is barely there when I finally say it. Honest, for what feels like the first time in my life. ❝I want this,❞ I whisper, against his mouth and it's delicate like a prayer. ❝I want you.❞ .・。.・゜✭・.・✫・゜・。.

Horizon| L.N.4 by MeganLucca

Grief doesn't always come with funerals. Sometimes, it comes quietly-through the slammed door of an apartment you swore you'd never return to. Through the bruises that finally faded but left something heavier behind. Beatrice Piastri knew this kind of grief. The quiet kind. The kind you carry in your chest long after the world thinks you're fine. Leaving him hadn't been the hardest part. Surviving him had. Now, months later, she was back in the paddock-Oscar's little sister with a name of her own, finally trying to breathe again. She'd built a wall of armor out of silence and sharp smiles, convinced she didn't need anyone else. Until him. Lando Norris wasn't supposed to notice her. Not really. Not in the way he did. He had his own weight to carry: the pressure of a world watching, a team that expected wins, and a legacy he was still trying to build before the world decided he'd missed his chance. The fun, smiling front man of McLaren-charming, chaotic, untouchable-was just a shell on most days. Behind the jokes was a mind overclocked with pressure, self-doubt, and the unbearable demand to always be more. They weren't looking for each other. They weren't ready for each other. But broken things sometimes recognize each other in the dark. And when they do- They don't always fix each other. But sometimes, they make surviving feel a little less lonely. --- Based on te 2024 season, all referencese to people are purely casual.

A Monaco Summer Affair - Lando Norris by stellaaamcm

The summer of 2025 in Monaco was supposed to be just another luxurious getaway for me-a break from the high-paced world of fashion marketing. But when my friend Elio, a Ferrari F1 mechanic, invited me to an exclusive rooftop party, I found myself stepping into a world I had admired from afar since childhood. Amongst the glittering elite of Formula 1, I felt out of place, sipping champagne in quiet observation. It wasn't until I wandered to the other side of the rooftop, where the sunset painted the Monaco skyline in hues of gold and crimson, that my night truly began. A clumsy mistake-a shattered cocktail glass tumbling down from the rooftop-was all it took to catch the attention of someone I never expected to meet. Lando Norris. The young, talented McLaren driver stood opposite me, his laughter breaking the tension. But when our eyes finally met, something shifted. A moment of silence. A confession that slipped from his lips before he could stop it. And just like that, everything changed. by stella, best ranking!! 19/03/2025 #1 : lando 19/03/2025 #1: norris 21/03/2025 #1 : mclaren 25/03/2025 #1 : ln4 21/04/2025 #1 : oscarpiastri 23/04/2025 #1 : f1drivers 08/06/2025 #1 : f1fanfiction 28/06/2025 #1 : sportsromance 03/07/2025 #1 : mclaren 04/08/2025 #1 : booktok 09/08/2025 #1 : f1fanfiction This story is purely fictional, and I mean no disrespect to anyone!
