Lando's POV As I knocked on Sophie's door, my heart raced with anticipation. When she opened it, I was momentarily breathless. She looked absolutely stunning, and I couldn't help but marvel at her beauty. "Gosh, Lando, stop blushing," Sophie said in a flirtatious manner. I tried to remain my composure as I replied "I can't help it when you look that good." Together, we ventured outside to my car, knowing that with the race looming, I had to refrain from drinking tonight.
Throughout the journey, our conversation flowed effortlessly, weaving between topics both mundane and profound. With every exchange, I felt myself drawn closer to Sophie, our connection growing stronger with each passing moment. Arriving at the restaurant, we settled in for what felt like a date, though we both pretended otherwise. Yet, beneath the surface, there was an undeniable spark igniting between us.
As the evening unfolded, Sophie and I shared stories of our past struggles and triumphs, laying out all of our vulnerabilities felt so good as we were both extremely understanding and full of empathy. Sophie spoke candidly about losing her dad, revealing that was the driving force behind her career aspirations, while I shared the challenges of navigating the highs and lows of racing, including the weight of criticism. In our shared vulnerability, our bond deepened, drawing us closer together.
As we returned to the hotel, I couldn't bear to let the night end, so I invited Sophie back to my room, a ritual that was quickly becoming a cherished tradition. For hours, we delved deeper into each other's worlds, exploring the depths of our personalities and passions. Yet, as the night came to an end, an unspoken tension lingered in the air, a silent acknowledgment of the connection between us.
With a flutter of nerves, I found myself unable to hold back any longer. As Sophie prepared to leave, I seized the moment, my words stumbling out in a rush of emotion. "Sophie, these past two days have been nothing short of magical for me. I adore your company, and... well, I don't know exactly what I'm trying to say, but I really like you and being in your company." Heat rose to my cheeks as I awaited her response, my heart pounding in anticipation. Thoughts were running through my head. Have I said this too early, I mean we did only meet each other yesterday but it just feels like fate is telling me to say all of these things.
"Lando, I really enjoy you and your company too," Sophie replied softly, her words echoing the sentiments of my own heart. With a gentle smile, she slipped out of the room, leaving me to overthink everything that had just happened. Though we hadn't spoken the words aloud, I knew in that moment that there was something special between us, something worth exploring further. And as I watched Sophie disappear into her room, I couldn't help but smile, knowing that this was just the beginning of our journey together.
