"I gotta go to training angel, I'll be back in an hour or two" I faintly hear Lando tell me as I adjust myself burying my face deeper into the pillows half asleep.

I eventually wake up to find myself alone in the big cold bed, I sit up and hear the shower running in the bathroom. I climb out of bed and a shiver runs through my body as my feet land on the cold wooden floor. I pick up Lando's hoodie that was lying on the floor and I put it over my sparcely clothed frame before I walk into the kitchen and pour myself a glass of a leftover smoothie that was in the fridge. I sit down behind my laptop and start to reread over my essay I had written a few days before, as I'm reading through the essay I feel Lando's hands rest on my shoulders.

"whatcha doin angel?" Lando asks me before wrapping his arms around my waist and hugs me tightly from behind "rereading my essay before I submit it" I explain not turning around and just focusing on the words in front of me "I'll leave you to it babe, want me to make you some breakfast? I'm making myself some" he asks sweetly kissing my cheek. "if it's no extra trouble for you" I giggle as I turn to the side and rest my hand on his cheek and quickly give him a kiss. "I love you" I whisper with a small smile on my face, "I love you too" he replies pecking my lips again before moving to the other side of the kitchen island and starts cooking as I continue reading over my essay.

"finally done" I say relieved as I submit the essay to my professor before closing my laptop swiftly "what was your essay on?" Lando asks me as he hands me a plate with eggs, toast and avocado on it. "Thank you baby, it was on how photography was used in the late 19th century and early 20th century and how it impacts our interperation of the past" I explain before I take a bite of the toast on the plate in front of me. "sounds interesting" Lando smiles as we continue eating and talking.

"I'm so excited for the holidays, they were always my favourite time of the year when I was a kid" I tell him happily "me too, plus you get me to yourself for 6 weeks. I'll be all yours and we'll be able to finally catch a break. the sooner this event is over, the sooner you and I will be able to take a break" he explains as he wraps his arms around my waist as I rise off our dishes and leave them in the sink to later put them in the dishwasher. "I know, I know, I'm just selfish and want you to my self as soon as possible" I explain giggling as he presses a few light kisses to my shoulder "I know angel, I'm excited to have you all to myself, you have no idea" Lando chuckles in reply as he starts to lightly tickle my waist "Lando!" I shriek giggling before he spins me around and pins me against the kitchen counter. "I love you" he mutters pressing a frantic kiss to my lips. "I love you too" I tell him as I smile during the kiss. "I should go shower" I murmur as I run my hand "hmmm, I gotta call Zac" he informs me before I press another quick kiss to his lips and walk back towards his bathroom. I grab a pair of leggings and a crop top to change into. I walk into the bathroom and turn on the shower before I strip out of my pyjamas and take my hair out of the messy bun I had slept in before I step into the steamy shower and immediately feel the hot water dampen my hair and my muscles immediately relax.

"Lando?! What time do we have to go to the McLaren headquarters for tonight?" I ask as I walk back into the living room after my shower and I run a hand through my wet hair as I sit down on the couch next to him. "I think we need to be there at 6:30" he tells me as I rest my head on his bare shoulder as he continues to respond to emails "I love you" I murmur resting my hand against his cheek and pulling him into a kiss. I readjust slightly making it easier "I'm so glad I convinced you to move in" lando murmurs in-between kisses "me too" I chuckle before he moves his laptop to the side and attaches his hands to my hips and pulls me in to straddle his waist. my hands wrap around his shoulders as we lazily makeout on the couch in his living room. I loose track of time and eventually I end up laying on the couch with Lando towering over me holding himself up with his forearms pressed against the cushions next to my head. "I love you" he says, voice slightly hoarse "I love you too" I reply voice equally as hoarse as there is a pounding at the front door. "who would be here?" I ask him as I stands up and I sit up on the couch and my head turns following his frame as he walks to the front door.
