You're both tired. It's no wonder since it's one in the morning. He arrived home from his Grand Prix weekend just an hour ago, and you couldn't fall asleep without him properly. So there you're dancing together in your living room to What you do to me by Blanks. You're making small steps back and forth, and eventually, you spin while holding his hand. Your head leans against his chest, making you feel safe. It reminds you a lot of some film scene.
The only difference is that you ain't wearing some fancy cocktail dress but your pj's. He isn't wearing a black suit with a tie but baggy sweatpants and a plain black T-shirt. You love him in this the most anyway or in his racing suit. He's smoking hot in it.
He chuckles when you spin in his arms again. "You are utterly beautiful." Hearing those words from him is reassuring. You have your own struggles that he knows about, and he's the only thing that makes you feel better. Even though you're used to hearing things like this from him, your cheeks turn red.
"I just need you around. There's something about you. I can taste it on your lips. Nothing better than this" You're singing the verse while looking directly into his eyes. A boyish smirk appears on his face, and you bite your lip.
"Cause baby when we touch, it's like the whole world stops. And I wish I knew what it is you do 'cause when you say my name... Woah, I can't explain," he continues by singing the chorus. The music is kinda loud, and in the back of your mind, you know that your neighbours are gonna complain in the morning, but you just decided not to care about it. You just want to enjoy your boyfriend who's leaving next week again.
You start to laugh honestly when the next song comes on. Thinking Out Loud by Ed Sheeran. What a cliché song to have a slow dance to. "This reminds me of too many weddings. Please, tell me we'll be more creative." You're kinda surprised that he brings the topic of a wedding into a conversation. You have never talked about it before.
"Sure, babe. At our wedding, we're gonna have just songs from 1D," you reassure him with laughter even though you actually considered that since you were affected by that era.
"Oh, lucky me that I haven't proposed yet," he says more for himself than for you while taking steps back and forth. You punched him weakly in the shoulder, and he giggles.
"Hun, I'm sorry to break it to you, but we're engaged since kindergarten." When you think about that. This is actually even more cliché than the whole 'Thinking Out Loud' thing. You found out about it just recently and by accident. When you met again when you were seventeen, you had no clue since your ways separated after kindergarten.
"Shit... Well, then I guess I'm stuck with you and songs by One Direction," he sighs annoyedly. It's no secret to you that he isn't a fan of that boyband. You still remembered the day you said you would break up with him for Harry Styles even though it wasn't true. He was soo grumpy. You had to make his favourite cheat meal for lunch, and even then, he didn't want to forgive you.
"Yeah, you're stuck with me forever. Mwahaha." Evil laughter left your throat.
"And I love it," he admits openly. There's no doubt about it. He loves you from your awkward morning dances as you make pancakes through your horrific parking in parallel to how you're just the worst at board games. He even secretly loves when you debate about the rules like legislators at a court case.
"Do you?" you ask him playfully.
"Yeah, more than anything. There are moments when I feel lost, and you're the only thing in my life that makes sense. You know, you're my home." You knew that feeling too. Sometimes the world around you got just too big for you to handle. Lando sometimes gets lost in F1. He's still that shy introvert he used to be but learned how to be less socially awkward when he needs to be. And you, you're still having problems with your social battery. It's not a big surprise if you and Lando are leaving some social event earlier because of you.
"We are both lost cases, aren't we?" Well, since you're dancing in your living room at one in the morning, the answer is pretty obvious.
It's almost two when you finally get to bed. Lando falls asleep immediately. It has been a secret to you how he can fall asleep just a minute after his body hits the bed. You have always been the opposite of this. Not that you would complain because you can spend all night watching him sleep. The simple satisfaction.
