bringing him home

complete fluff, sad lando, and not proofread so apologies x

Not to be dramatic but Lando was done. He’d had a crappy weekend of bad luck, damage, bad strategy and also (he would admit) a bad performance. It was the second last race before summer break, which couldn’t possibly come soon enough. 

He felt guilty. Felt guilty he couldn’t of performed more for the team; guilty he let his frustatration show on radio; guilty he’d been in a crap mood and not let the team even try to pick; guilty that he couldn’t let himself sleep on the plane.

It was a form of self torture. But he couldn’t stop.

He had been short with everyone, but especially Jon- who he knew was only ever trying to look out for him. All he really wanted to do was to get home and crash in bed for some more self loathing.

Mumbling a few quick goodbyes to the part of the team on the same flight as him, Lando swiftly turned his back on his friends to make his usual route.

Landing at Heathrow meant he had his usual, lone wolf routine to get back home. A guy he had known for years - Waleed- would pick him up.

Back when Lando lived in Woking, Waleed had been hired by mclaren to drive him to all the events his calendar was packed with. They had a mutual respect for each other but Waleed was a man of few words. Which right now Lando felt like he needed, a familiar face asking how he was might be enough to send the young man over the edge. 

Car park 2, floor 4, bay number 168. 

That’s where he was off to.

Waleed always came to pick him up from Heathrow. When it was good, Lando would invite a few team members of the preorganised coach to join him. And when it was like it was today, Lando would have only his own company to deal with. 

It wasn’t even home anymore, the young driver lived in Monaco and purely came back for mclaren and for social reasons. And right now he fancied neither. 

But duty called.

Cautiously, not to bring about any attention, Lando peeled off from the large group of mclaren workers who were on their way to the coach stop. With his hood up, shoulders hunched and staring at the ground as much as possible he thankfully didn’t garner any attention. He knew this route like clockwork- down the elevators and across the walkway to the multi-storey; get the lift up four floors and walk left to the back corner. 

Everything felt heavy as he dragged his notoriously over packed suitcase across the smooth tarmac. He just wanted bed.

But as he rounded the corner his mood only got stormier. Waleeds car was definetely not around. Instead parked in his space was a beat up black small car. Grumbling to no one in particular, Lando got out his phone to question Waleed - who was normally very prompt and reliable. 

Before he could though, the slam of a car door shutting directed his attention back to the space he was wishing Waleed was in.

“Car park 2, go to level four , park in bay 168. You don’t make this easy do you?” 

Yes it was sarcastic, but I’m the softest,caring and most gentle way. And Lando felt everything in his body and mind sag, with a familiar sigh.

“I got the afternoon off work, so I guess I turned up.” Lando still stood still, a confused look demonstrating to Y/n she needed to explain. “Max texted me and I think Jon told him you weren’t feeling great. Unfortunately, Max said you were now my problem so…” 

Of course, Jon had told on him. And of course, especially after their little ‘manly’ heart to heart a week or so ago, Max had decieded Y/n was actually the greatest comfort to him. 

“is…is it ok that I’m here? I didn’t want to presume but Max-“ she was inturrupted as Lando started taking great strides and threw his arms round her shoulders.

He didn’t verbally reply, instead nodding into her neck and then pulling her impossibly closer, which she assumed to be a sign he were getting a bit emotional. So she just stayed, hugging him tightly back in return.

Her insecurity was not without reason. Lando and y/n had known each other for years, but only got close and started dating 3 months ago. It had been an immediate perfect fit and felt like the most natural thing in the world. 

But this was the first time she was being exposed to his incredibly vulnerable side, and Y/n did not take this lightly. Especially given the fact he hadn’t really had a choice.

After what was probably not more than 30 seconds, Lando muttered a ‘thankyou’ and pulled away so they were face to face. Only then did y/n really see just how exhausted he looked. The normally glowing, tanned skin was abnormally pale and almost clammy. Unsurprisingly his eyes were sunken in- but worse was sort of dullness of his usually brilliant green eyes. He was more than just tired, he was mentally checked out too. 

“Get inside, left the heater on” she smiled warmly before pressing a quick peck to his lips. Following the instructions almost too well, Lando completely failed to remember his suitcase, which still stood aimlessly in the middle of the car park - from where he had first seen his girlfriend. With a sad sigh Y/n walked back to grab it - placing it in the boot before rounding the car to the drivers side. 

“So, we can go wherever you like. Max said Bristol, said your mums keen to see you.” Lando looked motionless at that, so Y/n attempted another option. “ Or you’re welcome at mine, or we could just got the hotel mclaren booked for you?” Impossibly, Y/n saw his face fall further at the last option, which she quickly crossed off her mental list. 

“‘m just really glad you’re here… wanna be with you.”  He kind of looked embarrassed, fiddling with his fingers as he muttered those words - not appreciating the way Y/n started glowing with warmth to it. 

“I’m by your side no matter what… you deciede where you want us to be for these few days.” 

Admittedly Y/n hadn’t planned such a sad way for her to meet Landos family, but they were serious enough that it was only a matter of time, so why not in hsi hour of need? She also firmly believed being around more people who knew him and could comfort him through it all. And, by the way he talked about them, Y/n wasn’t particularly scared to meet them - they all sounded lovely. She just wanted them to like her. 

“You’ll come to my parents?”

“If thats where you want to be then yes, of course I will. “ Lando nodded and tears started to water, just from how overwhelming the weekend had been compared to how impossibly calm he felt now just because Y/n was with him. 

She’d been prepared for this eventuality after Max described just how bad a state Lando appeared to be in, a little overnight bag and Max’s ‘shortcut’ way to get to the Norris family house avoiding the rush hour traffic. When Y/n held Landos eye contact long enough for him to know she was sincere, Lando leaned over the centre console to hug her tightly once again. 

“I’m really really glad its you here.” He wasn’t evn sure if she coulf hear it- but of course Y/n heard. 

“I’m telling Waleed you said that”

Even when he felt thihs exhausted, self-defeated and shitty, Y/n could make him laugh. He pulled back and just watched as Y/n turned the key in car, then started fiddling with her phone. 

“Right my playlist cos i’m driving and I want no complaints ok?” She shot him a fake serious scowl, before reversing out of the space. 

Lando just watched, watched the way she darted her eyes to the rear view mirror every two seconds  as thought she was taking her driving test again. And the way she bit the right side of her lip as she wound her way through the tighter exit ramps of the car park. And the way her fourth finger tapped to the beat of the Bruno Major song playing - such a small movement even Y/n probably hadn’t noticed she was doing it. Even to her crappy music. 

He was only caught out in his staring later, when her little 11 year old vw polo merged onto the motorway towards his childhood home. Predictably she blushed, rolling her eyes at him, whilst remaining lazar-like focus on the road in front. 

“Stop staring  creep.” He didn’t to that statement, choosing to start his own conversation.

“I really love you, you know that?”

“Of course I do, and I love you more.” Uncharacteristically for her normal driving to the rule book, Y/n took one hand off the wheel and rested it on the centre console - holding out for her boyfriends back. “Now, try get some rest hey? I promisse to try and not crash the car while you sleep.”

“I’ve never felt less relaxed.”

But, of course, he was joking and after an 18 hour journey of the equivalent of tossing and turning in an airplane seat, it took all of 5 mins in the safe and warm atmosphere of his girlfriends car to nod off. 

Because for the first time in a couple of weeks Lando was truly comfortable squeezed into the miniature car to the tune of an artist he normally hated.

If you guys know Cat, you know she LOVES an unavoidable disruption to her meticulously planned itinerary! But I suppose there are worse places to be stuck than London.

After deciding to book a hotel as close to the epicenter of London tourism as possible, we minded the gap and took the tube to Hyde Park. The weather was exactly as you'd imagine London in the winter, but we ventured through rain and crowded streets of Carnaby over to a very popular and busy Indian restaurant, Dishoom. Undiscouraged by the hour long queue, we waited outside in the drizzle and made friends with the doorman.

We were finally seated inside around 4pm, so we delved into what would be our lunch and dinner. We had some delicious and bottomless house chai, fried okra, black Daal, ruby chicken and whatever the chef's special was. Even for combining the two meals, our eyes were bigger than our stomach could handle, and whatever we were able to finish up was ultimately the dagger that ruined any plans of us making it past 7:30 awake.

It was dark by the time we left the restaurant and the rain had picked up, but we took the long way back to the hotel making detours to the Green Park, Buckingham Palace, and the Victoria Memorial.

We made it back to the hotel and jetlag and the Indian food caught up to us. We were both snoring seconds after hitting the pillow with plans dashed to read a new book and watch the Chelsea game.

We're currently back at London Heathrow hoping for an on time departure to get into Lisbon a day late and more than a few euros short. Security knocked us both for a loop... An unsuspecting security agent forced us to check our bags. We obliged him with the ignorant American tourist schtick. My TSA pre-check conditioning had me holding up the line as literally every single item was taken out of my bag and resent through the X-ray machine. And Cat, still cursing my namesake for the chain reaction that led to her bag being checked, forgot to pull her film out before sending it through the X-ray. ☹️

Stay tuned to see if the conspicuously named Storm Gerrit further wreaks havoc on our American privilege!

Safely Settled In - London, England

We left Madrid early this morning, leaving our Airbnb when it was still dark outside. We walked to the Metro station to catch the tram to the airport - when we arrived at the Metro station, we found the doors locked! We had to wait about 30 minutes and then we were able to get in and find the right tram (thanks to another nice stranger who made sure we were headed in the right direction). The flight into Heathrow was smooth and on-time. No problems at the airport. We paid almost 40 pounds a piece to ride the express train to the bus station - Welcome to London prices! We are staying outside of town, so we had a nice long ride to our place - we managed to get off at the right stop, had a short walk through a lovely neighborhood park, and arrived at our rental unit. We dropped off our packs and walked to the neighborhood grocery store. We took a little nap and then walked to a nearby pub.

Hmmmm-perhaps our neighbors have experienced a few broken windows?

Our neighborhood for the next few days.

Our first English pub, definitely a "local" hangout - there was a sign on the door of the pub that said "Private Event" (written on notebook paper with a pencil). There was a guy standing in the doorway having a smoke and when Doug asked him about the sign he said "that's just to keep the riff-raff out, you can go in!" We each had a Guiness, before heading next door for a bit of food. We ended up at an Eritrean restaurant - the food was good, but the company was even better. We met the owner and several of the customers - very friendly place!

When we had arrived at the restaurant, it had been filled with smoke and had a very strong aroma, which we couldn't place. Nobody seemed alarmed by this, so we just ordered our meal. The meal was served on injera, a leavened pancake made from taff flour. It has a slightly tart flavor to it. You tear off pieces of injera and use it to scoop up the food. At the end of the meal, the owner prepared a coffe for me, using special beans that they toast in a pan on the stovetop (this is what had created the smoke when we first came into the restaurant). The coffee beans are a special Eritrean bean. It was a wonderful cup of coffee! Great way to spend our first evening in London.

SUMMER ON YOU — draco malfoy x f! reader

content warning: anxiousness about flying

summary: summers in britain are less than par, and thus you and your friends decide to embark on a short holiday trip to greece.

wc/ avg. reading time: 2956 words/ 15 minutes

return to the draco masterlist here

"WHAT ARE YOU lot doing for the summer holidays?" blaise asked the group. it was the last week of 6th year and we were all excited to finally have a break from school.

the 6 of us, miles, adrian, draco, blaise, pansy and i were scattered around draco's dorm. adrian and i lying on the draco's bed, miles sitting on the ottoman, blaise and pansy sitting on the floor while draco sat by his desk.

"i'm not doing anything exciting, probably just hanging out with draco and adrian," i said rolling myself over so i was on my stomach, propping my head up with my elbows.

"i'll probably hit up the skate park or whatnot but i've got nothing on," miles added.

"blaise and i don't have any plans either," pansy chimed in.

"what about you malfoy?" adrian asked causing draco to look up from his book.

"nothing much either, probably just spend time with y/n."

"don't you guys think we should do something exciting before we start our last year here at hogwarts?" i expressed.

"well, what if we went on a trip? as a group, to a muggle place..." blaise suggested.

"sounds interesting...any ideas where to?" miles looked at us hoping for a response.

a lightbulb went off in my head, "oh! adrian's family and mine used to visit greece a lot when we were younger! the views are incredible."

"oh yea. we could go to athens," adrian agreed.

"sounds fun, alright who's in?" pansy's eyes lit up in excitement.

"me."

"me."

"i am."

"me."

"dray? what about you?" i tossed a pillow at him.

"i don't really have a choice do i."

"nope," i flashed him a toothy grin.

"fine i guess i'm in," draco playfully rolled his eyes.

"ok, adrian and i will plan everything since we're familiar with the area. we can discuss further in the group text. for now, we should start packing to go home," i got up off the bed and walked over to draco.

"alright see you later."

"bye."

"see you at dinner."

"bye guys."

the four of them left, leaving draco and me alone. i hugged him from behind the chair, resting my chin ok his shoulder.

"i have to go back to pack as well,"

"you staying here tonight?"

"mhmm," i placed a peck on his cheek

"see you later princess."

"see you later my love," i winked as i walked out the door.

adrian and i wheeled our luggage through the heathrow airport, looking for the rest of our friends. we spotted a group of familiar faces and made our way to them.

"hey babes," i greeted as we approached the four.

i was wearing a pair of white sweatpants and a white nike hoodie, jordan1s, a black backpack on my back and a pair of oversized sunglasses to hide my eye bags.

adrian had on the exact same outfit from head to toe, except he was wearing socks and slides.

miles wore black cargo pants with a grey graphic tee, a LA dodgers fitted cap worn backward, a fanny pack worn across his chest, and old skool vans.

blaise wore grey sweatpants and a black graphic hoodie, he too, was in socks and slides.

pansy had on black yoga pants, a white cami, and a grey oversized jacket. she was carrying a black crossbody bag and had on a pair of checkered slip-on vans.

draco had on black sweatpants and a black hoodie, his hair disheveled, sporting a louis vuitton backpack, and wearing jordan1s that were the same colourway as mine.

"ugh it's 7am...why couldn't we just apparate there?" draco sulked.

"getting there by plane is all part of the experience malfoy," adrian lightly nudged him in the ribs.

"we better get checked in. did everyone remember to bring your IDs?" i queried.

"yes," they replied in unison.

adrian walked towards the counter and helped the group get checked in.

"alright, so it's 2 rows of three, meaning we'll have to split ourselves into two groups," adrian explained as he fanned out the boarding passes in front of us.

"i call dibs on adrian and draco," i quickly snatched three boarding passes from adrian's hand.

"guess i'll have to third wheel pansy and blaise...again" miles rolled his eyes grabbing one ticket from adrian. blaise took the remaining two passes, for himself and pansy.

we got through airport security and navigated our way through the airport to our boarding gate.

"ok if any of you need to take a piss you better go now," i reminded the group as we sat ourselves down on a bench.

adrian, miles, blaise, and pansy all got up and headed towards the toilets.

"you don't have to go?" i asked draco who sat next to me. he shook his head in reply and i leaned my head on his shoulder.

"i never asked, but how did you convince your father to let you go to muggle greece?"

"who said i told him i was even going?" he let out a small chuckle, booping my nose.

the four soon got back from the toilets and we started boarding the plane.

"34...35...36! we're right here guys," adrian gestured to draco and me as we caught up to him. blaise, pansy, and miles were in the row behind us. we were sitting in the middle section of the plane.

adrian and draco took the aisle seats while i sat in the middle. we buckled our seatbelts as the airplane was preparing for takeoff.

i noticed that draco was clenching his jaw and his face noticeably pale.

"are you nervous?" i whispered to him.

he lightly nodded his head as his eyes were closed shut and his eyebrows furrowed. he was holding onto the armrests of the chair, knuckles turning white from his firm grasp on it.

"shh it's okay, i'm here," i comforted him, grabbing both of his hands and placing them in my own. i lifted up the armrest that sat in between us.

using one hand i gently pushed draco's head so it would lean on my shoulder. as the plane took off, i continuously traced small circles on the back of draco's hands as i held onto them, and whispered sweet nothings into his ear in hopes of calming his nerves.

before we knew it, we were already in the air, and draco slowly started to grow calm again.

"thank you princess," draco finally managed to breathe out as he lifted his head from my shoulders.

"anything for you my love," i smiled at him. i took out my airpods from my backpack, giving one side to draco and putting the other in my ear.

as i pressed play on my phone, i closed my eyes slowly in hopes of getting some rest before we landed. when i woke up, i found myself in a position where my head was in draco's lap and my feet were on adrian's lap.

my eyes shifted to look at draco. he was still asleep, arms folded, head tilted upwards to lean on the headrest, his mouth slightly open. it was an adorable sight.

i turned my head to see that adrian was also awake. i slowly shifted myself to sit upwards, hoping not to wake the peaceful-looking draco up.

"hey, you're up" adrian spoke lowly so as to not disturb the other passengers

i nodded my head lightly rubbing the sleep from my eyes.

"do you wanna watch something?" adrian asked.

"yea..sure" i stifled out a yawn.

we scrolled through on our own screens to decide on something to watch.

"trolls: world tour? i know it's your favourite movie" adrian raised an eyebrow

"yes please," i reached forward to insert the in-flight headphones to the screen and put them on.

"ok, 1...2...3.." adrian counted down as we pressed the play button on our personal screens so that it started at the same time.

i scooted closer to adrian, using both my arms to hug his arm and leaning on it. that's what i liked about our 17-year long friendship. no matter how close we got, we both knew it was purely platonic. he had too much respect for draco to ever come between draco and i's relationship. and i had too much love for draco to ever let anything ruin it.

as the movie ended and the end song played through the headphones, i realised the plane had landed and was taxiing.

as the plan came to a full stop, the captain spoke through the PA system, "aegen airlines welcomes you to the athens international airport here in greece. the local time is now 2:26pm, the weather today is nice and sunny at 32 degrees celsius. have a pleasant trip and we hope to see you again soon."

draco started to stir awake as he let out a big yawn. we slowly started packing our bags and prepared to leave the plane.

we cleared customs and made our way to baggage claim. luckily, all our luggage made it to greece safely and we collected our things. as we walked out of the airport exit, adrian and i spotted a familiar-looking man, standing in front of a black SUV, holding a piece of paper that stated "mr pucey and friends".

"mr adamos!" adrian and i ran up to him.

"ah ms y/l/n, mr pucey, it has been long, both of you are so tall now!" mr adamos expressed.

mr adamos was the chauffeur who would drive adrian's family and mine around when we would visit greece. we would visit greece almost yearly because we both had family here. we just haven't visited here in while because we wanted to explore the rest of europe.

"well it has been years since adrian's family and mine last visited greece," adrian loaded mine and his luggage into the car as mr adamos and i conversed. as the group approached the car, mr adamos turned to greet them.

"hello there ms parkinson, mr fletchley, mr malfoy and mr zabini. my name is mr adamos," he introduced. "since mr pucey has stated you guys will be doing it "free and easy" for your trip, i will only be driving all of you to where you will be staying."

the 4 of them nodded their head in understanding and said their thanks. they proceeded to load their luggage into the car and made their way to the front.

adrian sat shotgun. miles, adrian and pansy in the middle row, while draco and i sat in the last row.

as we drove through the roads of athens, draco and i looked out the window to admire the views. i'd point to the different buildings and explain what they were to draco. he'd look at the scenery in awe and then at me, the same amount of admiration in his eyes as he studied my features.

the car soon stopped in front of a gorgeous-looking townhouse. we shuffled out of the car and unloaded our baggage. we thanked mr adamos for the ride and he drove off.

the townhouse was situated in a rather up-and-coming village in the outskirts of central athens. the townhouse was modern-looking. floor-to-ceiling windows lined the 3 story house, meaning you could see through the whole house.

we rolled our luggage into the air bnb, removing our shoes by the front door, leaving them in the living room as we excitedly ran through the house to tour it. we got to the roof, soaking in the view from it.

"this place is beautiful!" pansy exclaimed.

"special thanks to y/n for finding this place," adrian patted my shoulder as we admired the landscape.

"well i don't have anything planned for today. i think draco and i will head to the supermarket that we drove past just now to get some groceries for the next few days. maybe cook up some dinner for tonight." i informed the group.

they hummed in acknowledgment and slowly made their way to their own rooms to unpack.

draco and i rolled our luggage to the room we were sharing, deciding we should change into something more weather-friendly before heading out.

i changed into black denim shorts and a plain white cami. draco had on white inseam shorts and kept his black hoodie on. i grabbed my wallet, placing it in my pocket, along with a few reusable bags to put the groceries in.

draco and i walked hand in hand down the cobbled pavement and made our way to the grocery store.

i got a trolley and pushed it around the aisles, putting various types of foods into it. draco eyed me up and down as i did so, letting out a smirk

"what are you smirking at?" i asked curiously.

"is this what it'll look like in the future when we're shopping for our future family?" he teased, placing himself behind me, putting his hands on the handles of the trolley, trapping me in.

i turned around so my face was right in front of his.

"of course," i smiled, placing a small kiss on his nose, running my hands through his hair.

we finished shopping and paid, slowly making our way back to the house.

"draco, are you sure you don't need help carrying those?"

"yes princess i think i can manage two grocery bags," he chuckled shaking his head.

draco and i got back to the house and he placed the bags on the kitchen counter.

"i'm gonna take a shower," draco placed a kiss on my cheek and jogged upstairs.

i began unloading the groceries and started on dinner as miles walked into the kitchen.

"what's cookin good lookin?" miles asked as he propped himself to sit on the counter.

"pesto pasta salad with grilled halloumi and tomato tartines," i beamed.

"sounds yummy, here i'll help," miles offered, getting on his feet and washing his hands.

"alright thank you cutie pie. you can start cutting the tomatoes and boiling the rotini," i instructed. i began grilling the halloumi and toasting the toast in the muggle toaster.

despite being purebloods, my family was rather fond of muggle inventions as we thought magic was just the easy way in doing something, which we found quite boring sometimes.

when draco got out of the shower, he joined in to help by washing the dirty pots and pans. If you had asked draco three years ago to do the dishes he'd scoff in your face, but i guess after having met me, he's humbled himself down a lot.

miles placed a piece of tartine on each plate and plopped a scoop of pasta salad on it. i definitely had to rearrange the food on the plates to make them look more presentable.

we placed the 6 plates around the round dining table, took our seats, and called the other 3 down for dinner.

"ooh! it looks yummers," blaise excitedly clapped his hands as he sat down, adrian and pansy following behind him.

"thank you miles and y/n for the lovely dinner," pansy thanked.

"what about me? i helped too!" draco rolled his eyes.

"yes, yes, thank you darling draco for helping to wash the dishes," i cooed, gently pinching his cheeks.

"stop chatting i'm hungry let's dig in," adrian hushed us as he placed a big scoop of pasta salad into his mouth.

when we finished dinner, blaise and pansy insisted on cleaning up, to return the favour of us preparing dinner.

i stepped into the bathroom and took a nice cold shower before changing into my pyjamas. it consisted of a dusty pink satin button-up shirt and shorts of the same colour.

we had decided to all sit on the roof and watch the stars. the 6 of us sat on the outdoor sofa, stargazing.

"oh! i just remembered something," i got up from draco's arms and scurried down to the kitchen and back up the stairs.

"champagne anyone?" i waved the bottle in one hand and juggled 6 champagne glasses in the other.

"how'd you even manage to buy alcohol? neither you nor draco are 18 yet," miles questioned, pouring the champagne into the glasses for us.

"you didn't think i would come to greece and not bring a fake ID did you?" draco sneered.

we clinked our glasses and took a sip of the sparkly champagne while chatting with one another under the twinkling stars.

we were all feeling tired and a teensy bit drowsy and decided to call it a day.

"rest well my lovelies, we have a long day tomorrow," i said to the group as we all made our way to our respective rooms. "goodnight everyone"

"goodnight," the others chimed in as we all closed our bedroom doors, eager to have a good night's sleep in our comfy beds.
