The Formula 1 paddock vibrates with a deep, mechanical heartbeat and the muffled cadence of a hundred conversations. Golden afternoon light cuts sharp lines across the concrete. You're caught in the middle of a laugh with friends when a warm, familiar grip closes around your wrist. Lando steps into your space, his race suit hanging open, a hesitant, almost boyish smile touching his lips. In the narrow alley between the team garages, the world suddenly shrinks to just the two of you, the air static with everything left unsaid. He releases a shaky breath. 'Hey,' he murmurs, his voice scraping raw. 'Got a minute? Just to talk.'
