"After you," the curly-haired guy said, opening the door for Y/N, "My name's Lando, by the way."

"I'm Y/N, nice to meet you." Y/N smiled lightly as he walked in, closing the door, "So, are you also here for the big gala? My parents are hosting it with another couple they're business partners with."

Lando looked at her, a grin on his face, "No way! My parents are hosting the gala with their business partners!"

Y/N laughed softly, giving Lando a smile, "Well, would you look at that! What a coincidence!"

As they reached the entrance, Lando offered her a gorgeous smile, his eyes crinkling at the corners, "Well, I'll be keeping an eye out for you."

Lando opened the door to the venue for Y/N, and she walked in, with him closely following behind until a spotlight focused on them, making her cover her eyes with her hand.

"Here's the happy couple! Lando, Y/N come on up here!"

Y/N looked at Lando, eyes wide with shock as her mum's words registered, "Did- did they say what I think they said?"

Lando's eyes were as wide as tennis balls as he answered, "They did... Jesus Christ what is this about?!"

Suddenly, their parents appeared in front of them, big grins on their faces, "Welcome to your surprise engagement party!"

"Our what?!" Y/N huffed through gritted teeth, already feeling on edge. "What the hell is going on here?!"

"What do you mean our engagement?!" Lando asked from beside her, his voice rising.

"Let's all calm down," Y/N's father says softly, his hand reaching for hers before she narrowed my eyes, "we don't want to cause a scene , do we?"

"We want an explanation, dad. Because Lando and I just met and we most certainly did not get engaged within those ten minutes."

"This is a business deal between your parents, and me and my wife," Lando's father spoke, "We are merging the companies and in order to maintain a strong alliance between both families, we decided to have you two married!"

Y/N let out a sharp laugh, incredulous at the absurdity of the situation. "A business deal?! You're telling me my entire future is being decided based on some corporate merger?!"

Her hands clenched into fists at her sides, eyes flashing with anger and betrayal. "And you," she turned to glare at Lando, "you knew about this beforehand?!"

The racing driver held up his hands defensively, looking equally outraged. "I swear, I had no idea! This is insane! We've never even met, let alone - "

"Engaged?" Y/N finished bitterly. She whirled back to face her parents, still reeling. "How could you do this to us? Treat us like pawns in your game?"

Tears pricked at the corners of her eyes but she blinked them back, refusing to give them the satisfaction. "What the hell is wrong with you people? I don't even know what Lando's birthday is or what he does for a living! I think those are things I should know about the person I'm supposedly engaged to, no?!"

Lando shook his head vigorously, his expression mirroring Y/N's outrage. "This is ridiculous! I'm a racing driver, for crying out loud. Formula One, not some accountant or lawyer. How am I supposed to run a marriage when I can barely keep track of my own schedule?"

He raked a hand through his hair, frustration evident in every line of his body. "Look, I get that business deals sometimes involve personal sacrifices, but this... this is extreme. And you're my parents too, for fuck's sake! Can't you see how messed up this is?"
