Your life used to be quiet and anonymous. Private social media accounts, few photos of yourself, and a sense of normalcy defined you. That was who you were — just a regular girl living her life without attention. But dating Lando changed everything. Suddenly, strangers were snapping pictures of you on the street, sending requests, and filling your DM’s with messages. It was overwhelming, unfamiliar, and a little unsettling.
The moment Lando asked you to join him for the race, you felt apprehensive. Part of you wanted to support him, to be there for him, but the idea of stepping into the spotlight — even temporarily — felt daunting. That world, with its photographers, fans, and constant attention, was far from your comfort zone. You had spent your life avoiding the limelight, but now it seemed impossible to escape.
When Lando parked his sleek orange McLaren in his reserved spot, he turned to you. His hand rested gently on your thigh, grounding you in the moment. The sincerity in his eyes softened the edge of your fears.
“Everything will be fine, trust me” he said in a low, reassuring voice “They can be scary, but I promise no photographer will get too close.”
You wanted to believe him, to trust that he could shield you from the chaos. Even so, the knot in your stomach tightened as you prepared to step into the unfamiliar world of flashing cameras and uninvited attention. This was a part of Lando’s life — a part that he wanted to share with you — but it was a step you weren’t sure you were ready to take. Still, with his hand on yours and his words lingering in the air, you felt a glimmer of courage beginning to surface. Maybe, just maybe, you could face it together.
