The garage at Brackley is unusually loud for a Thursday. Being the only girl reserve driver for Mercedes means you get to spend a lot of time with the two main drivers - Kimi Antonelli and Lewis Hamilton. You became friends with everyone, but mostly with Kimi, the teenge Italian rookie.

Today is Kimi's 19th birthday. He always pranks you and his engineer Bono, so you two decided to get a revange. You glance toward the corner where Peter Bonnington, Bono, is carefully lining up two paper plates, the plates are piled high with whipped cream.

"I suppose you're ready, Isabella?"

You grinned and nodded, taking one of the plates.

“Oh, absolutely. He started this war.”

You went to the rest of the team, hiding the plates behind your backs, as the whole garage sang 'Happy Birthday to you!' to Kimi. Yes, even Toto sang. He stood there, smiling, a bit awkward, holding the cake you specifically baked him.
