Ride or Die | Lando Norris (ENGLISH)

34

I was devastated. The first thing I thought when I saw two lines on the test was that I had no intention of continuing the pregnancy. I wanted to end it as soon as possible and I thanked the English government that abortion was legal. However, it hurt me that Lando just ran away. He disappeared as if the problem didn't concern him at all. And it was bloody disappointing. Max and Pietra rushed into the apartment right after Norris left. Max's face was priceless when he saw me sitting in the hall crying with a positive pregnancy test in my hand. I finally had to explain everything to them. I didn't have the strength to make up lies for real, so I told the truth. The whole truth. Max was furious with me, but when Pietra talked to him privately, he was more furious with Lando for acting like such a coward. Maybe he was right, but I was still worried about him. He was shocked and ran out of the building without even calling an Uber. He walked ahead. It was already dark and he wasn't back. What if something happened to him?

– Where is this fucking idiot? I'll kill him, I swear – Max growled loudly, pacing nervously around the living room as I sat on the couch with Pietra clinging to my side. Without a word, the blonde put her arm around me and gently squeezed my shoulder.

– Maybe he just went out for a walk and will be back soon? – Pietra asked hesitantly, and I shook my head in denial.

– He's been gone for three hours, P. If he had gone for a walk, he would have come back long ago – I sighed quietly. My voice didn't even sound like it belonged to me.

– Have you written to him? Because I did. The fucker isn't replying to me. I really don't know why he needs his fucking phone – Max threw his phone on the couch right next to us while I pulled out my phone and opened my messages with Lando. Of course I wrote to him, but he simply ignored me. Or something happened to him.

– He read from me, Max! – I jumped up, getting off the couch. Max immediately walked up to me and looked at my phone.

– You wrote to him too nicely – he grimaced. – But, well, the important thing is that he's alive, I guess – he shrugged and fell limply onto the sofa next to Pietra. He grabbed the TV remote and covered himself with a blanket, completely ignoring our presence. Me and Pietra looked at each other with raised eyebrows.

– We should find him – Pietra said, and I reluctantly nodded.

He may have been an asshole, but I still cared about him. I didn't want him to do something stupid.

– He's probably in his hotel or some bar. There are plenty of bars in London, do you really want to look for him there? He will come back on his knees – he shrugged, turning on the TV. – And literally on his knees, because he'll probably get wasted – he added, nodding his head disapprovingly.

– Max... – I started calmly.

I should be mad at him right now, not Fewtrell. Even though I wanted to, I really wanted to be terribly upset with Lando, I couldn't. Each of us reacted to the news about pregnancy differently. I burst into tears, but eventually, thanks to the presence of Max and Pietra, I calmed down, and Lando apparently needed a moment of alone time. I really didn't see anything wrong with it until he didn't reply to our messages or answer our calls. He could have at least replied that everything was fine.

– He is such an idiot, Melanie. For me he's finished. I don't give a damn where he is now – he muttered with a grimace. – A fucking starlet always has to make himself the center of the world when you're carrying his baby – he growled loudly, finally pressing his lips into a thin line.
