Please write something with drivers praising female f1 driver during March because it’s womens history month. Anytime something bad happens to her on the grid she’s like someone hitting her car “how could they during womens history month 😞😧”
INTERNATIONAL WOMEN’S DAY
Tumblr media
pairings: daniel ricciardo x driver!reader / lewis hamilton x driver!reader / sebastian vettel x driver!reader / small lando cameo
warnings: none?
author’s note: I know it’s not the entire month, but I saw lewis’ post for Stephanie and I couldn’t shake the thought of him making a special post for our gen z driver 🥺 I hope you like it, my darling!

“Have you seen Daniel’s new post on Insta?” Her performance coach asked her, scrolling through his own phone while they took a break.
Y/N shook her head, not having been on the social media app that day. “No, why?”
“He talks about you.” He grinned, handing his phone over to her with the post ready on the screen.
Daniel had updated his Instagram with a clip of an interview he had done, where he’s asked about which women in his life inspire him.
He starts off by speaking about his grandmothers and their move from Italy to Australia. Daniel also mentions his mother and the support she has given him.
“From an athletic point of view, there’s 2 people that come to mind. My, uh, former colleague and friend, Y/N Y/L,” he laughed, “her entire story on how she came into Formula 1 is very inspiring and she has brought a lot of positive change into the sport,”
“But she’s also a great person and she always has something incredible to say,” Daniel teased his younger friend, “so, yeah, Y/N is definitely an inspiration to me.”
The woman had a soft smile on her face throughout watching the entire video, touched by Daniel’s words.
She gave her coach’s phone back and grabbed her own from her bag, deciding to leave a comment under Daniel’s post.
YourUsername I didn’t even have to force you to say this 😭 thank you, Dan! 💙
A mere hours later, she had seen multiple notifications of people tagging her in a post Lewis had made. She opened the app again and saw an entire post dedicated to her made by the World Champion himself.
lewishamilton Beside Stephanie, I also want to highlight the journey of @/yourusername. I’ve been privileged to watch her make history as the first female driver to stand on a F1 podium, to grab pole position and to win a Grand Prix. Y/N, thank you for all the work you do and continue to do. You use your platform well and I can’t thank you enough for standing by me in the causes that I feel passionate about. I’m excited to continue to follow your journey. Happy #InternationalWomensDay to you, thank you Y/N.
Y/N felt emotional reading Lewis’s message. She had idolized the driver ever since she was a little girl and to have him appreciate and acknowledge her hard work means the world to her.
YourUsername thank you so much, Lewis! 🖤 not you making me cry on international women’s day 😭 this should be illegal
— lewishamilton ❤️
The official F1 Instagram account had also made a post dedicated to the female driver which had been reposted by several drivers on their Instagram stories like George, Carlos, Valtteri, Esteban and even Lando.
The McLaren driver had called her “my goat 🐐” in his caption, something that had made her chuckle.
The best message she had gotten for the special day, came from none other than Sebastian Vettel.
It was a shock to her when the German send her a text message as she hadn’t heard from him in a while, she figured he wanted the time for himself and his loved ones.
SEB VETTEL
Happy International Women’s Day, Y/N! Congratulations on P2 in Bahrain, a great start to the season. I hope you’re doing well and that you had a good winter break!
Today I was reminded of the amazing journey you’ve had since your karting days. I am honored that I have been able to watch you grow as a woman from so close. I’m very proud of you and I’ll keep supporting you, even if I’m not there as much anymore.
I hope you have a great day and I wish you the very best!
Big kiss! X
She send him a message back, thanking him for his beautiful words and asking him how he’s been doing. They send a few texts back and forth, updating each other on their lives.
Y/N also decided to pay a tribute on social media, posting several pictures of herself with the caption:
YourUsername happy international women’s day to myself, cause I’m the best woman I know ❤️‍🔥

Electricity - DR3
Request: No
Summary: Reader and Daniel being fools for each other but not confessing after Daniel heard Lewis is gonna ask reader out
Pairing: Daniel Ricciardo x best friend!reader
Word Count: 1323
Warnings: little sad and fluff, house moving, Daniel and reader being a pair of fools for ice cream, cursing
Author’s Note: Inspired by the song electricity of Silk City, Dua Lipa. Don’t be a ghost reader, it took me a while to write in it.
Tumblr media
1996
At your 7 years you got to move from your country because your father got a job offer at Perth, Australia, you got to admin it was scary at first, moving from Peru to Australia was not easy especially when it was a different idiom, people, school, basically everything. Your mother died when you were 4, so it has been you and your dad only until you meet him.
Your dad was a mechanic engineer, and he was working at the Australia track when you meet him. 
It was a very hotness Wednesday when you were looking around for your dad since you got lost looking the other cars when suddenly him bumped you, a pretty boy with big brown eyes and a cheeky smile.
“Sorry, I didn’t see where I was going” 
“Sorry too, are you okey? ” he said cheking on you to see if you were fine
“Yep, I’m y/n by the way”
“I’m Daniel, nice to meet you” he said shaking hands with you “Come on, let’s go for some ice cream” 
Before you could answer he was already running and holding your hand, so you could follow him.
Since that you and him start to hang more and more becoming best friends, you attending to his races and him been for you in every broken heart.
2011
When I'm with you
Ooh, baby
Giving up my ghost for you
“Gosh Daniel, I’m so proud of you debuting for F1” you said
“What you think about the race?” he replied
“That someone is getting an F1 seat soon” 
“You really think so?”
“Absolutely, you’ll see”
“Thanks, changing theme” he said looking behind you “where is Michael?”
“He isn’t coming, actually he isn’t coming anymore we split out, think it wasn’t meant to be”
“What? Why? You okey?”
“Yep, we just wanted different things” you said trying to recover the reality “come on let’s go for some ice cream” you said grabbing his hand.
The truth was that Micheal want to call it quits since he saw how much time you spend with Daniel and you attending to the race and cancelling your date 3 days before was the straw that broke the camel's back. 
He told you that it was clear you and Daniel were in love, so he broke up with you, you didn’t agree with him saying that you got a thing for Daniel when it wasn’t he was your best friend that was all.
2021
All I see is you, lately
Wide awake and in my dreams
I see your face so vividly
I don't know what I'd do
Ooh, baby
If you only saw a friend in me
I'd be bittersweet
That casual kiss on my cheek would have meant nothing up until recently, every time that you saw, hug or touch Daniel there was a feeling, a feeling in your stomach.
This started to happen since that GP 2 years ago when he wins, you watch him get off the stage to hug you and since then you could stop thinking about him. 
Now you weren’t dumb you knew what it meant, but it didn’t matter, today you decided to give it a shot and tell him after the race. 
“Hey Dan, congrats on p4” you said after entering on his driver's room
“Thanks y/n” okey it was now or never
“So, I want to tell you something” said both of you
“Go ahead” he said
“No, you” you said thinking he would say what you think it was, was it that he felt the same? He also likes you ?
“Well, I meet this pretty girl yesterday and I ask her to go on a date tomorrow” he said smiling
After that you learn that online date apps were not that bad at all.
2022
I know you've been treating, treating yourself wrong
So let me care for you
Ooh, baby
I'ma love you differently
I'll give you electricity
“Hey, you wanna grab some ice cream?” you said to him after he opens the door of the hotel
Everybody knew Daniel wasn’t having the time of his life this season with Mclaren treating him like shit.
“Thank but not in the mood” he says a little sad
“What’s wrong?” you could feel something was not fine
“Imleavingmclaren” he whispered 
“What?” you replied confused
“I’m leaving Mclaren y/n” he said more loud this time with tears in his eyes
This past few weeks Daniel was the center of attention on the paddock but not for a good reason, everyone wanted to know where he was going to go or do after the news. Daniel started to push everyone, fake smiling all the time, there wasn’t that smile that you saw years ago anymore, he started to lose weight and cancelled to your friend dates.
“Daniel, talk to me” you beg, this week you found out Daniel wasn’t eating
“I am fine”
“No you’re not, you being skipping foods” 
“Just wasn’t hungry, that’s all”
“What about our Wednesdays of ice cream that you seem to skip now” you replied a little angry now
“Busy”
“Daniel Joseph Ricciardo stop it, I know you since we were 7, and I know you are not fine, and it’s okey not being fine sometimes” you said now hugging him
“It’s just too much for me right now, I feel like my life doesn’t matter anymore, I feel lost” he cried
“You’re going to be fine, let me care for you ”
2023
I feel electric, baby
So electric, baby
Wanna let you know, let you know
I think I'm ready, baby
I think I'm ready, now
It was the Australia GP and you decided to go see it with Daniel, that night at the hotel he started to feel better, it has been a tough way, but now he was the third driver of Red Bull Racing, and he had enough time for Wednesdays of Ice cream.
“Hey Seb, how retiring treating you?”
“Very good, where is your lovebird?”
“Not my lovebird”
“Come on y/n, you two are bound to one another, you always have been, and I know he feels the same” 
“Sorry to disappoint, but I don’t think he feels the same way” you replied
“Who? Daniel?” said Hanna joining the conversation “he is a fool for you” 
“Yep but y/n says he is not” Seb said telling his wife the context 
“I even thought you were dating, there is no way he doesn’t” she said
“Yeah, well he doesn’t” you said 
Max has won the Australia GP, and you’re at the hotel getting ready for the party when you heard a knock.
“Hi Dan” you said opening the door
“So I heard Lewis want to ask you out” he says while entering to the room.
What? Lewis? I mean he was cute, well hot, but you were more into a certain Australian “Really? Who you kn..” you couldn’t finish because you feel his lips against you. 
“Before you said anything I just want you to know I’ve always liked you, from the first moment I saw you at that Wednesday when we went to eat ice cream, and you order vanilla, and ever since that day I have hidden my feelings because I didn’t want to lose you, but now I heard Lewis want to ask you out, so I have to risk now because I know him, and I know that if you say yes to that date I will lose you forever so here I’m telling you everything and hoping you feel the same way y/n”  he lower his head as he finishes saying that, not wanting to look your reaction but instead of a push he feels your lips again.
“That means you like me too?”
“Of course you fool”
He started to smile, grab your hand and run while yelled “Come on, let’s grab some ice cream to commemorate this moment”

MICKLORE for dummies
here;s part 1 with his racing history
because over roc weekend people seemed to have gotten to know him a lot better so here's a bunch more of mick info that I deem as essential
so under the tab I will add a bunch of stuff that kinda break trough that introverted pr trained wall he has.
this will be broken into facts, quotes, moments and videos.
--enjoy--
Mickfacts:
he speaks, english, german, french and italian but beraly speaks italian and french because he doesnt feel comfortable enough with them
the f-2002 is his favorite of his dads cars
during a lot of 2022's off season he has been dirt racing in the states where he bascially races for as long as the car runs together with gina's bf (x) (x)
apperantly recognizes the italian anthem before the german
can't choose himself for a dream team so his dream team is michael and seb
couldnt choose between lewis and max in 2021 "because theyre both nice to me"
he used to play drums as a kid
his middle name is 'junior'
he is named after Mick Doohan (5x mtotogp champ) who used to live close to Michael who were really good friends and so him and Jack Doohan (f2 driver) have always been and are still close friends.
apperantly introduced himself to kevin when he got back to haas with 'suck my balls'
modified said off road buddy that he does mud racing with so it goes quicker then intended
he seems to have extra clothes with him at all times bc he borrowed an extra pair of pants and shirt to callum for their f2 podium celebration
his dad wanted him to study engineering (also interesting piece of related information: he said he would have become a biologist if not an f1 driver in this video)
he refers to his dog angie as his best friend
in F3 he won 5 races in a row. race 22 til 26 of the 2018 season.
he started doing champions for charity where he organizes a football match every year with a bunch of german sports players
mick denies it but this man has bleached his hair
Mickquotes:

"I have a problem with italian bread tbh"
"PTW man, PTW" (pwt means prove them wrong)
"so you have to be smooth, realise that its an old lady and treat it that way, take it easy and enjoy the ride"
"hmm, have you ever driven on the road blindfolded?"
"ah, I was fine" after crashing
"I'm glad it was you I was fighting against"
Mickvideos:

Merc, what kind of Historical Military Man gets the wheels turning for you? What are the markers of 'Oh, that one, that one is now mine'?
Nat, I'm going to be honest, this question provoked something of an existential crisis. so I went back through, like, 20 years of fandom favorites to see if there's a pattern.
Spoiler: there isn't, apart from a perennial need to be different. This is kind of long .
2001 (ish) - Lord of the Rings is coming out, and you are either a Legolas or Aragorn girl. I am deep in my 'not like the other girls' phase and decide Boromir is actually the superior choice here. (This leads me to watch A LOT of period dramas that are probably not appropriate for for me at this age, including Clarissa and Lady Chatterley's Lover.) It also leads me to the Sharpe books, which are great and awesome. Richard Sharpe doesn't necessarily do anything for me as a character, but that gets me into Hornblower, which gets me into the Aubreyad, which leads me to read a lot about the Napoleonic Wars in high school. Cliff-diving into a different historical period is now something I do every single summer.
I also spend about 5 years (2008-2013) writing a 225,000 word fanfic in which Boromir doesn't die.
2010-2015
Matthew Crawley (Dan Stevens) is really only in the army a brief while but who can say no to the blue eyes and the absolute vibe he has going with Mary?
During the Downton phase I decide to raid the library for other period dramas, again, and watch The Forsyte Saga. Soames Forsyte is not a man you love, but Damian Lewis has A Face and I know he was on Band of Brothers, which the library perennially never has a copy of.
2011
I finally watch Band of Brothers in its entirety my senior year of college and am a little disappointed I appear to be missing large parts of the story. (Future rewatches will explain that this is actually a feature of the show, not a bug.) My recollections of this are hazy, but I'm fairly certain my favorite character the first time I watched this was Lewis Nixon (Ron Livingston). He's dark-haired, he's funny, he's an absolute mess with a trust fund. Dick Winters (Damian Lewis) also has one hell of a face. He's a red-head, he's in charge of everyone else, he doesn't say much, and he is tall. I know there must be fic for this show but am also very, very sure it is shippy in a direction I do not want to read, so I do not go looking for it.
TURN - 2014-2017
Ben Tallmadge (Seth Numrich) is the guy to watch on TURN: he's a lieutenant, he's tall, he struggles with rules, but the entire fandom is also crazy about him and the leading queen bee in the OC end of that fandom is a real pain about it, so I decide I will not be writing for him no matter what it costs me to hold off admitting I want to. However, in the next episode we meet his best friend, Caleb Brewster (Daniel Henshall) who is short, bearded, dark-haired and chaotic. The moment he comes onscreen I love him. Sadly, no one is reading fic for him and this project is abandoned.
In Season 3, we meet the Marquis de Lafayette. Historical Lafayette is a tall, awkward redhead in need of a father figure who makes up for war experience with boundless enthusiasm. His letters home are adorable. Show Lafayette (Ben Wiles) is tall and enthusiastic. I love him anyway and I make it everyone's problem for, like, a year.
2016-2017 - Mercy Street
Henry Hopkins (Luke Macfarlane) is a military chaplain in a hotel-turned Union hospital in Alexandria, Virginia. He's tall, he's a little tortured, and he has a knack for putting others first. Wrestling with some past choices, his romance with Emma Green, the privileged daughter of the family who owned the hotel, is sweet and full of pining. I write so much fix-it fic for them it's not even funny. (I love this show because the female characters I love come pre-installed. Please watch this.)
2016 - Dunkirk
I see this movie three times in theaters and love it more each time. Collins (Jack Lowden) is a blonde RAF flyboy with a very adorable face. (Tom Glynn Carney is also a face I like but he's on a backburner for a bit.) I write a lot of fic about it and affectionately refer to this as my first Planes Go Zoom phase.
2020
Two weeks into the pandemic I decide rewatching Band of Brothers is a good idea and buy the book and the DVD set from my local secondhand bookshop like I am doing a drug deal in a parking lot. Two weeks after that I am writing a fanfic for Dick Winters (Damian Lewis) because I am a loon who likes men in charge and painfully slow burns.
2021
Still in the middle of a pandemic I decide to watch The Pacific, because I make good decisions, apparently. Hoosier Smith (Jacob Pitts) is a taciturn, wise-cracking friend of Leckie's who is joked about as being the pretty one. He is. Andrew Haldane (Scott Gibson) is quiet, unassuming, and in charge, and played college football for Bowdoin. Very dad energy. Extremely charming. Dead in three episodes as history intended. Fix-it fic incoming.
2022 Top Gun Maverick comes out. Jake "Hangman" Seresin (played by Glen Powell, who I loved in Hidden Figures and The Guernsey Literary Potato Peel Pie Society) has a jawline you could cut something with and an attitude. My friends think I am mental. Second Planes Go Zoom phase coupled with Devotion, which comes out shortly after.
SAS Rogue Heroes comes out. I have been really looking forward to seeing Tom Glynn Carney in something else and he delivers. Mike Sadler is blond, extremely good at his job, not capable of suffering fools, and far too attractive for the desert.
2024
We do not even make it out of trailer season before I realize I still have a Thing (TM) for Callum Turner's face, which I have known since he was Theseus Scamander in Fantastic Beasts. Watching The Boys in the Boat before this all starts doesn't help - he has regrettably blond hair but thighs for days and shoulders you could hang the universe on. John "Bucky" Egan, is tall, dark-haired, incredibly generous spirited and nominally in charge. I want all of it. The rest of the fandom does too. I try to make peace with that and write anyway. Third Planes Go Zoom phase.

Baby Steps
Part 24/26
<<< Previous part
Warnings - gets a lil spicy towards the end but nothing to nsfw.
*******************************************************
Milo slept soundly against your shoulder as you walked through the airport, you would have woken him but he hadn’t gotten a very good night’s sleep knowing he had to leave Carlos the next day. Thankfully, almost as soon as you walked out of baggage claim, Daniel spotted you and jogged over to take the weight of some of your luggage - pressing a kiss to the top of the sleeping toddler’s head.
“Hi.” He whispered. “Missed you.”
You pressed a soft kiss to his lips. “Missed you too, baby. Stuck with me again now.”
“Wouldn’t have it any other way, love.” He hummed softly.
Although Dan had taken your heaviest bags, the weight of the Ferrari contract in your carry-on bag plagued your mind. You took a glance at Daniel, how were you supposed to tell him? When were you supposed to tell him?
“How was Maranello?” Driver brought your attention back into the moment as you carefully strapped Milo into his car seat.
“Really beautiful. Far too many tifosi there though, swarmed Carlos like vultures.” You grumbled. “I’m just glad to be back home with you.”
“That’s sweet. I’m so glad you’re back too… I was a little embarrassingly lonely without you.” The driver admitted. “I text like all of the other drivers asking for company.”
“Anyone free?”
“George.”
“Oh that’s nice, you should spend more time with him.” You hummed softly. “He’s a good friend to you.”
“Busy boys aren’t we?” He chuckled softly as he began the drive back to your home. “Ready to get back to work?”
“You know it.”
You knew it was impossible, but it just felt like everyone at the MTC was aware of your offer. Almost as soon as you stepped into the building, a hot drink was in your hand and everyone was happy to help ease your workload. Something was definitely off, even when your relationship with your colleagues was at its prime, it was never this good. It was almost like they were buttering you up for some bad news.
Instead, you decided to take matters into your own hands and corner Andreas after a strategy meeting, the team principal almost cowering at your presence as you approached.
“What is going on? Why are you all treading on egg shells around me?” You said, folding your arms across your chest. “I’m a big girl, I can take it.”
He sighed softly. “We might have to take you off of the pitwall. You’ll still be race engineer but-“
“But what?” You scowled. “The pitwall is the best place for me.”
“Bono sits in the garage and Lewis does fine.”
Your jaw tightened. “Give me a valid reason why, Andreas. I don’t understand what possible reason you could have for this bullshit.”
“It’s a media issue.”
“That’s not a valid reason.”
He groaned softly and pinched the bridge of his nose between his fingers. “It’s not my call, but the press are still focusing more on your relationship than our race results and Zak isn’t happy.”
Andreas watched you intently and it was almost as if he could see the lightbulb above your head, something almost mischievous glistening in your eyes. The corner of your mouth tugged into a smirk and you leant back against the conference table a little.
“Only if I get to be back with Daniel.” You said, not daring to break eye contact with him.
“Y/n-“
“No, Andreas. I’m not compromising on this.”
The team principal chewed a little at the corner of his thumb, looking away from you. He mumbled something about making a phone call before dipping out of the room - leaving you alone with your thoughts. Thankfully not for long, the driver in question came into room with some lunch for you, a gentle smile on his face.
“Hi, love.” He smiled. “How you doing?”
“…undecided.” You hummed softly, pressing a kiss to his lips.
He raised a brow. “Talk to me.”
“So, you know how everyone’s being like extra nice to me today?”
He nodded.
“Well, Zak wants to take me off of the pitwall because apparently our relationship is still somehow too distracting.” You explained, pausing to hold your hand up as he opened his mouth to protest. “But, I’ve said the only way I would agree is if they let me work with you again.”
“…you’re a menace.” The driver chuckled, wrapping his arms around your medal. “And I love it.”
“I love being on the pitwall, it just makes the most sense for me but if I can’t then I want to be back with you at least, y’know? If not then… I’m not sure what’s really left for me here.”
Dan’s smile faded and his brows furrowed. “You don’t really think that, do you?”
You lowered your head and shrugged - you didn’t want to admit it out loud but McLaren just didn’t feel the same anymore. Sure, you’d fallen in love again, something you didn’t think would be possible, but everything else didn’t fit. You felt isolated from the rest of the team for the first time since Ben died and it broke your heart but you weren’t sure what to do, what to say because you couldn’t put your finger on why it wasn’t the same.
The driver tilted your chin up with the crook of his finger, his honey coloured eyes running over your face. “Baby, I had no idea you felt like this.”
“…I don’t like how they’re treating either of us. Even before we got together they’ve not been good to you.” Your voice cracked a little. “Lando always gets put ahead of you and you deserve to be treated with more respect than that.”
“I’ve not been on the podium this season, he has.”
“And they’ve continuously prioritised him before, during and after the race. No matter how hard I fight in strategy meetings they seem to think that having one driver at the front is better than having both up there.” You sighed softly, bringing your hand up to cup his jaw - brushing your thumb across the stubble on his skin. “You deserve to be treated like the fucking winner you are.”
“Baby.” He chuckled softly. “I love that you’re in my corner, it means so much to me.”
Here’s you’re opening. Use it. Tell him. Tell him about the contract.
But you didn’t, you simply smiled and kissed him softly. “Always.”
After several long, painful meetings, you found yourself sat in the garage at Spa but, thankfully, with the number 3 emblazoned on your kit and Milo sat on your lap. The rain was lashing down on the track - it was crazy to you that they were even considering racing in these conditions. Even the wets had slipped and slid around, Lando himself having a huge spin.
It made you feel sick. It wasn’t far different to the conditions that Ben had died in. You felt instantly more at ease when a pair of warm hands settled on your hips.
“You’re shaking, baby.” He whispered.
“…I’m so angry.” You groaned. “You shouldn’t be going out in these conditions. It’s dangerous and I-I can’t stand the idea of you getting hurt or worse, I-“
“Hey hey.” The driver turned you in your chair so you were looking up at him. “I’ll be fine. I’ll be careful, I swear.”
Milo whined softly and made grabby hands for the driver. “Very rainy.”
“It is, bud!” He laughed softly, “maybe after the race we can go jump in some puddles!”
You forced a smile but Daniel could practically see the nerves radiating off of you, he didn’t want to admit it but he was nervous too - especially after Lando’s spin. He wanted to make sure you were confident that he was going to be okay.
He did want to race, he’d qualified 4th, but when the stewards told them all to head out to track for a safety-car lap, he could see the colour drain from your face. “It’s under the safety car, I’ll drive as slow as I can, okay?”
“Make sure you talk to me, lots. Please.” You pleaded softly, pressing a kiss to his temple.
Thankfully, the race was red flagged almost as soon as it started - pretty much every driver complaining of the conditions and the spray making it impossible to see. You couldn’t have felt more relieved seeing Daniel get back out of the car.
“Good race.” You teased softly, smiling as the driver leant in to press a chaste kiss to your lips and then another to the top of Milo’s head. “The FIA don’t know what they’re going to do just yet so… just hanging around for a while.”
“Careful, y/n, this one has a tendency to put people in choke holds when he’s bored.” Michael laughed, shoving his friends shoulder. “How are you doing?”
“Glad he’s out of the car.” You admitted. “Do you two wanna get a bit of training done? Keep him warmed up?”
Michael’s lips curved up into a cheeky smirk. “I was thinking you could do that.”
“But I’m not…” then it clicked. “Michael. You can’t be serious.”
“I could watch the lil man, you could y’know…”
Dan snorted. “Are you really trying to get me laid right now? I know you’ve always been my wing man but this is a whole new level.”
“I wanna hang out with Mikey!” Milo giggled, not having a clue what was going on but Michael always gave him chocolate so he was more than eager to go with the other Australian.
“See?” Michael chuckled, lifting up the toddler. “You two kids have fun, okay? If they want Daniel back I’ll come find you.”
Before you could protest, Michael had practically jogged away with your son - leaving you and Daniel to exchange a look. The driver raised a playful brow before leaning down to whisper. “I’ll meet you in my drivers room in 10 minutes.”
As you snuck out of the garage you crossed paths with Binnoto, the team principal giving you a friendly nod - you didn’t want the Ferrari contract at the forefront of your brain so as soon as Daniel joined you in his room, you kissed him hard - the driver stumbling back against the door a little.
His warm hands found their way under your polo, pushing the fabric over your head before his lips were straight back on yours. He guided you back towards the sofa, trying not to step on each others feet as neither of you wanted to break the kiss.
You felt breathless as he roamed your body, you just couldn’t feel fully in the room with him. As good as it felt the twang of guilt that you’d not told him about your offer was still plaguing you. You wanted, needed, more from the driver to get your attention fully on him.
It was almost as if he got the hint because before you could even plead for anything, his head found purchase between your legs.
And if he ended up nearly missing the restart of the race? Definitely worth it.

Just to hear you spit poetry; the superior one Britcedes
Hate them, 0/10
They are- I - they are the epitome of ‘if i loved them less maybe I could talk about them more’ - I kept putting this ask off because how do you summarise something you love so much it rends you speechless? How am I meant to distill a pair that so easily rips my gut in two and builds it back stronger
They are the thing I love so much it made half the other questions I got almost moot because- yeah there’s chemistry there’s narrative there’s tropes and parallels — but none of those others hold a candle to Britcedes for me. Britcedes are the reason I just can’t get into any of those other ships because I can’t read Sewis without thinking- but what about George? I can’t get any investment in Ricrussell because- yeah dan is fun but hes not Lewis. George and Lewis have such a magnetic unspoken link it tugs me toward them inextricably- I cannot walk in any other direction without eventually being pulled back to them.
They have history- George spends his entire driving life trying to get to Lewis. He has the same dream as all drivers- to win, to be a WDC- to make history and etch your name in blood alongside legends- But George also dreamed of Lewis. He dreamed and dreamed of driving for Mercedes- of standing alongside Lewis not to beat him- just to be with him. To work with him. To be his partner. He denied easier rides with Red Bull in pursuit of merc- he struggled to find funding and begged Toto to take him on in an ill fitted suit just to try to make it to Merc. He looked at the most exclusive and elitist driver program on the grid and said ‘that’s where Lewis is so that’s where ill go- it is worth the scrutiny and the pressure’. George didn’t have it as hard as Lewis in any form but he said himself he had it damn hard- and if Lewis could be better than them all what’s stopping him.
And now he’s achieved that- every day he gets up knowing he is driving alongside the best and he voices it with every breath in his chest. The importance of their link is enclosed in how George says he doesn’t care who comes after Lewis as his teammate because none of them could compare. Every other driver will list a friend or say its up to the team- to George it doesn’t matter- because it wont be Lewis. He giddily embraces the challenge of racing against Lewis for as long as Lewis will stay because he knows every step will teach him something- and Lewis gives him time to learn rather than burden alone the pressure of having to win- He saved Georges career and gave him time- from the first time they met- to when George sat in Lewis’s garage in AD 2016 and watched him experience the worst moment of his career- to now working together to bring their team back to glory, Lewis gave George time, the thing that governs racing at its core.
And so much Gewis discussion is George focused- like hes the only one who benefits from this situation- like Lewis being with him is pity- Not that George is the result of a long and painful journey Lewis has dragged himself through, George is the end of growth and change and development- the teammate that pushes him but adores him- challenges and respects him, listens and laughs but also teaches him in his own way. George is an enigma formed so rarely in motorsport- driven and confident and mind meltingly talented but humble and always willing to push himself harder- and he looks to Lewis without seeing a threat or a target or an invisible pressure to compete against- He see’s Lewis for Lewis.
He sees Lewis for Lewis when Lewis is struggling as well as when he’s succeeding- he doesn’t use him as a step to better himself-he turns to a crowing mob and says ‘just you wait- nothing keeps Lewis down- nothing can’. George wins over Lewis and he refuses to take that as an accolade but instead turns it into praise for them both- its not about being better than Lewis, its about withstanding the pressure of the greatest the sport has ever known for just long enough to win- he waxes how racing against Lewis means no mistakes no shortcomings, only the best can come close for just long enough to hold on. George has cheered Lewis on for years and that never ends with when he is against him- it just continues with his full chest because if I lose to Lewis its not really losing is it?
Lewis has been through so much- he had his every doubt, every millimetre of his life turned over for weaknesses by those meant to work with him just so they could expose anything to use against him- anything that could provoke Lewis to breaking and slipping and lashing out- and it only ended when Valtteri stood stoic against his mistrust and waited for Lewis to allow him in. And now there’s George- George who Lewis is trying to be a good teammate for- trying to put aside that instinctive mistrust to work with him for the betterment of the team- George who takes every offering of partnership Lewis gives him with reverence. George who jumps at surfing and bowling and dinner and skydiving- george who glows under Lewis’ gaze- George who wants every atom of his input and experience but isn’t so complacent as not to push him so they can make something better together- George who sometimes annoys him and who he sometimes annoys but only because they know the other can do better and they will demand that they keep trying.
Do you see what I mean- this barely scrapes the surface of how they drive each other and push one another- how their successes are shared even when frustrated- how their differences form a complimentary blend of loud and quiet- bold and reserved- how Lewis brings George focus in the form of a calming hand and how George gives Lewis an electric spark. It doesn’t touch how they gaze and reach toward one another, swaying with the pull. It doesn’t breathe on how George laughs himself silly when Lewis so much as breathes- or how Lewis gazes at George with unmistakable pride whenever George glances away.
There’s ping pong and shared watches and surfing tattoos- there’s tweets and teasing and a million video clips- there’s the way they crow that they need a break from one another but cannot stop themselves from feeling relief when theyre back together.
They are a million starry ideas and my choked throat clogs with them even as my hands plunge into stardust-
Ask me my Honest Ship Opinions

Hill that I'll Die On (Richy x MC) 2
Based on Jonah Kagen's song Hill that I'll Die On. Read part one first if not already read.
You think I don’t notice
Those eyes becoming hopeless
“Hannah? Richy? Please…..say something.” MC spoke inside the dark mine, the fear coursing through her veins. Her heart raced as she heard the gravel crunch underneath her feet, the howling of the wind sounding eerily similar to ghostly warnings.
All the things you’d never told me
The side that people seldom see
The glow of the flashlight was doing little to provide sufficient illumination in the tunnel, MC’s left hand grazing against the mine wall as she slowly kept walking.
It’s scary, the burdens that you’ve buried
And I would love to share with you
Her thoughts were slowly spiraling into a whirlwind of emotions. She couldn’t help but remember what Jake had asked her before she had ventured into the Grimstone. 
“MC, I need you to consider something. I want you to be prepared……..the culprit may not be the one who we had originally suspected.”
“What are you trying to say?”
Just call and I’ll be there for you
“MC, please, just listen to me. I think the culprit might be someone very close to you and the others….someone you would least suspect. I can’t brush the feelings aside anymore.”
“What?”
“MC……I have reason to believe the perpetrator is actually your friend, Richy.”
‘Cause darling when it hurts
I won’t let you burn
It’s not that kind of fire
Just give me the lighter
Jake had suspected Richy, a thought that had never even crossed MC’s mind before. Richy was supposably behind everything, behind Hannah’s disappearance and Amy’s death? No, impossible.
Even at your worst
You’re the hill that I’ll die on
So just leave a light on
For me
“MC, I know this is a hard topic for you to wrap your mind around, and you might not even be willing to do so. Listen to me. I first suspected the mechanic when Hannah’s call log led to Roger’s Garage. At the moment I believed either Jessica or Richy were involved, until we discovered that Jessica was off the day the call had occurred. Of course there was no evidence to prove that Richy was lying, so my suspicions remained minimal. Until his shop was vandalized with the mark of the raven……..which happened during the time he was in the forest at the dare house. And how do we know he was at the dare house? Because he took the time to video call you, to show you his surroundings, he used you as an alibi.”
Honey please believe me
I’ve danced with this feeling
“You’re crazy, Jake. How could you say something like this?! He was literally attacked before my eyes, the same as Jessy! You saw him in the live stream that Michael sent me, both him and your sister tied up and unconscious! Why would you say something like this?!”
I know what the best parts of the world look like
Through blurry eyes, you’re colorblind
“Who knew about Jessica’s whereabouts the night she was attacked? There were two people she mentioned who had known her plans, her route. Richy and Phil, right? But it can’t have been Phil, because he was arrested before Richy’s disappearance, correct?”
“Yes, but-”
“You saw the MWAF when he attacked Jessica. Did you see him when he attacked Richy? Why wouldn’t he show himself to you once more when he attacked the blonde?”
It’s messy, it leads to second-guessing
And when you feel you’re finally giving up
The last thing you should doubt is us
“Jake, you frickin saw the Hanson place! You saw all the evidence there, all the workings of a mad man! You saw his room littered with files on all of them; files of Lilly, Cleo, Dan, Thomas, Jessy, Richy. You saw his note saying ‘Hannah Donfort, Amy Bell Lewis, Guilty, Guilty, Guilty.’ It’s Michael, Jake, there is no other explanation!”
‘Cause darling when it hurts
I won’t let you burn
“You saw him when he entered the cabin, MC. Did he look like some elderly person with aching bones? Did he move at least with some sort of hint referencing his age? No, he looked very fit and able, he stood up tall, no visibly bent back. You’ve seen pictures of Richy, his figure and form, don’t you think both men’s physiques seemed suspiciously similar?”
It’s not that kind of fire
Just give me the lighter
MC’s thoughts came to a stand still as her phone started to explode with notifications. With shaky hands she unlocked her phone and quickly clicked on the group chat.
Thomas: MC. Alan saved Hannah.
MC: What?
Thomas: Yes, he sent me a video call of him escorting Hannah out of the mines. She is safe! I am so happy, I can barely believe it myself even though I saw it with my own eyes.
MC: And Richy?
Thomas: He was not with her.
Richy was still in the mine……she needed to find him, before it was too late….before Michael took his anger out on the young mechanic…..
Even at your worst
You’re the hill that I’ll die on
As MC tried to reply, the connection suddenly died, causing her to almost curse. Pocketing her phone, she picked up her pace through the tunnel. The faint sound of footsteps ahead caught her attention, heart racing as her flashlight unexpectedly died.
So just leave a light on
For me
Using the wall as a guide, she carefully followed the faint scuffling of feet and as the sounds grew louder, she could make out the faint glow of a lantern. Someone was here…..Michael?

REVIEWING THE CHARTS: 23/03/2024 (V of BTS and... Mark Knopfler?)
It’s a short week, largely to prepare for what chaos should be coming the next, but right at the top, Benson Boone clenches his first ever #1 with “Beautiful Things”. I know pretty much no-one who cares about pop music on a deeper level likes this song, but hey, if I’m the only person happy about this other than Booner Boy himself, I’ll take it. Welcome back to REVIEWING THE CHARTS!
Tumblr media
Rundown
Given our few new songs, we also only have a handful of notable dropouts to start with, so we’ll bid adieu to the small but decent selection of “Could You be Loved” by Bob Marley & The Wailers, “Angel Numbers / Ten Toes” by Chris Brown, “My Love Mine All Mine” by Mitski and finally, “Disconnect” by Becky Hill and Chase & Status.
As for what’s back, we see returns for “Asking” by Sonny Fodera and MK featuring Clementine Douglas at #73 and, sigh, “Someone You Loved” by Lewis Capaldi at #68, and then a spattering of gains. Our most notable boosts are for “if u think i’m pretty” by Artemas at #59, “Wasted Youth” by goddard. and Cat Burns at #58, “We Ain’t Here for Long” by Nathan Dawe at #55, “Happier” by The Blessed Madonna featuring Clementine Douglas at #54, “Thank You (Not So Bad)” by a bestiary of enemies to good taste at #50, “Green & Gold” by Rudimental and Skepsis featuring Charlotte Plank and Riko Dan at #43, “Birds in the Sky” by NewEra at #34, “Never Lose Me” by Flo Milli surging high and fast up to #23 thanks to her releasing an album that includes a pretty great remix of the song featuring Cardi B and SZA, and then “Austin” by Dasha at #15, “Lovers in a Past Life” by Calvin Harris and Rag’n’Bone Man at #14 and finally, making his way into the top 10 for the first time, “Scared to Start” by Michael Marcagi at #10.
Our top five this week consists of “End of Beginning” by Djo at #5, “Lose Control” by Teddy Swims at #4, “TEXAS HOLD ‘EM” by Beyoncé at #3, “we can’t be friends (wait for your love)” by Ariana Grande at a new peak of #2 off of the debut, that could grab a week at the top soon, and of course, Benny Boone at #1. Now for our four new songs, which feel like names picked out of a hat and placed onto the chart.
New Entries
#60 - “Been Like This” - Meghan Trainor and T-Pain
Produced by Gian Stone and Grant Boutin
This is a joke, right? Or a soundtrack to a reality television competition, or daytime talk show? T-Pain has grown into his role as wholesome cuddly media figure surprisingly well and a collaboration with Meghan Trainor, whilst demonic, seems to be the best way to seal that position, with this being the lead single for her next album… Timeless. Well, that’s one thing to call your music. Mean jokes aside, hey, T-Pain is here so at least there’ll be some genuine, not as obnoxious charisma? Well, first of all, it’s electro swing, so my first instinct is to step away from my laptop, keel over and die, especially when Meghan starts to singing about how she keeps it juicy and then eventually that she’s “still that bitch”, as if she was ever that bitch to begin with. There’s something so cynical about Trainor’s vocals that I didn’t notice just the true extent of until T-Pain came in with an infectious call-and-response and weirdly-mixed but fun-extruding harmonies that almost would convince me on the entire song if he didn’t have to play to Meghan’s lack of personality, especially when placed against each other in the bridge. T-Pain can sell this as some goofy cartoon clown, but it probably wouldn’t charted without Ms. Trainor, who brings pretty much nothing to the song other than taking it a tad too seriously, despite the fact that there’s no reason, lyrically, for this to even be a duet. Also, Meghan, I’m not sure you can even sing the line about GRAMMYs in T-Pain’s verse on the account of you only have one.
#52 - “Never be Lonely” - Jax Jones and Zoe Wees
Produced by Jax Jones, Mark Ralph, Neave Applebaum and Tom Demac
I actually really like Jax Jones’ producer tag, it’s cute and rhythmic, has a little stutter to it. It’s nice. I have to say more than that, don’t I? I have to acknowledge Zoe Wees’ voice being misued and manipulated to just sounding characterless, I have to acknowledge how this heavily interpolates the drop from “Rhythm is a Dancer” by Snap!, one of the best Eurodance songs ever despite some… regrettable lines. It spent six weeks at #1 in 1992, blocking off Jimmy Nails, Freddie Mercury, Luther Vandross, Janet Jackson and of course, “Ebenezer Goode” by the Shamen from the top spot, before reappearing in remixed form in 2003 and 2008, reaching the top 40 again both times. “Never be Lonely” doesn’t work as an update of the song because of completely different lyrical content that I actually hate, asking someone to tell her how it feels that she’ll always be there for them, it’s really patronising and weird. It doesn’t work as a reimagining or reinterpretation because it goes for the same tone, and doesn’t adopt or adapt any of the original lyrical conceits. The one thing it does have is a Cascada remix. Yes, that Cascada. I have no idea why, but it exists.
#18 - “Going Home” (Theme from Local Hero) - Mark Knopfler’s Guitar Heroes
Produced by Guy Fletcher
Oh, so I guess this episode really will get as serious as cancer. This one might take a while to explain. So in 1983, Bill Forsyth wrote and directed Local Hero, a highly-acclaimed comedy drama that is actually former US Vice President Al Gore’s favourite film. Its soundtrack features a five-minute instrumental piece known as the “Theme of the Local Hero”. I’ve never seen the film so I don’t know how exactly it appears or makes sense within its narrative but I do know it has far transcended its origin. “Going Home” was the first single in Mark Knopfler’s solo career and has become a staple in both his and his band’s live performances, as well as becoming another theme, now for Knopfler’s home football team, Newcastle United. It’s probably the most lukewarm take of all time to say that “Going Home” is a beautiful piece, it honestly gives me goosebumps from its transcendent new-age introduction and excellently distant sax from Michael Brecker, that eventually transform into a very 80s-sounding but still profoundly triumphant jam that emulates the feeling of a journey in the UK pretty well. Maybe that’s what the film’s about, I don’t know. It peaked at #56 in 1983, whilst Bonnie Tyler’s “Total Eclipse of the Heart” was #1 - good week for rock epics, I guess.
If you know Knopfler from anything, it’s likely his band Dire Straits, one of the few important British rock bands that hit #1 in the States and never back over here on the islands - their #1 is of course “Money for Nothing”. The legacy of Dire Straits is not something tangible for me or that I’ve ever really understood, their sound was varied and evolved through what was ultimately a very short career. They’re not a legendary act but are still big names and incredibly well-connected, especially Knopfler, who has played and produced extensively for many artists and soundtracks. In January, Knopfler sold over 100 of his guitar and amp equipment at auction and in March, he’s compiled a charity ensemble to cover “Going Home” in support of cancer awareness.
Its status as a charity single is the only possible explanation for why this nearly 10 minute instrumental piece even touched the charts let alone the top 20, but it is stuffed with big names, from rock icons like Brian May, RIngo Starr and Joan Jett and newer cats like Sam Fender and Orianthi to genuine oddballs like Keiji Haino and head-scratching inclusions like, uh, Brad Paisley, who I will only ever remember for “Accidental Racist”. There are over 60 musicians on this record and damn near all of them contributed through their guitar playing, other than Ringo on drums, The Who’s Roger Daltrey on my favourite, the harmonica (that you can barely hear at times - Daltrey’s harmonica should be put to better use), and a few others. You can tell that Fletcher and Knopfler did their best job to try and collate recordings that were clearly from different times, places, equipment set-ups and audio qualities, but this is still basically a meandering pile of guitar overdubs that lasts longer than some full EPs and doesn’t really let you register any single guitarist as them playing. The collectiveness of it may just be the point, to show a united front against cancer or what have you, and there’s definitely a lot to appreciate if you’re an in-depth fan of guitar playing or a guitarist yourself, of which I’m not. I will admit, this is genuinely impressively easy to sit through for how lengthy it is, largely because of the dexterity on display, the fact that the melody of the original “Going Home”, even when developed on in the many ways it is within this piece, is still so infectious, and also because it comes out of not just cynical philanthropy but a genuine passion for the guitar as an instrument. The cover art is a Sgt. Peppers parody of the musicians standing in front of a famous guitar shop in London, and the wide array of musicians from a lot of different genres, eras and even techniques shows how wide and universal this feels an appreciation of the guitar… but I’ll say what my dad always said about Dire Straits (because, really, dads are the only people with viable Dire Straits opinions): “it all becomes much of a muchness.” My favourite of theirs is “Walk of Life” by the way, it’s so goofy. Love it.
#14 - “FRI(END)S” - V
Produced by Connor McDonough and Riley McDonough
V is the latest of the BTS boys to release a solo English single, seemingly leading towards a solo career like Jung Kook, with credits stacked full of Anglophone pop songwriters and production from the McDonough brothers that results in a very serviceable pop song that I’m not sure would get much attention outside of the fact that it’s a BTS member, hence why sales jacked this one’s chart position up so high. It’s not a bad little song at all, in fact I like the distorted guitar lick and the amount of emotion V shows in his vocals despite all the effects, he has a real unique texture against the slodgier indie drums and the infectious bed of harmonies in the pre-chorus. The one way I could see this getting big organically would be that fun albeit gimmicky chorus that makes this an anti-climactic friend zone anthem, though the gimmick wears off after the second time and doesn’t really develop into anything new in the second chorus other than some pretty gross, reverb-drenched spectacle. I usually wouldn’t give this manufactured bedroom pop much more of the time of day but there’s not much in the way of obnoxious performance or toxic lyrics here, it’s just that it really could be any other vaguely bitter male singer’s song. The first most obvious comparison is Joji due to their vocal textures, but Charlie Puth or Lauv could have easily made this work too, though probably not as well as V does here, especially not Puth. God, that would be horrible. Thank God for BTS that this song was never offered to Puth (not that he’d accept a song he didn’t spend 20 hours writing and producing himself, of course). Ugh, enough Puth talk, let’s end the episode.
Conclusion
God, this was not a great week, huh? Even if I’m not fussed about the new version, the composition of “Going Home” makes Mark Knopfler and friends get a lock for Honourable Mention, and it really does end up as the song with the most - if not the only - human passion in this selection. Worst of the Week goes to Meghan Trainor, surprise, surprise, for “Been Like This” with T-Pain, and that’s all. Future, Shakira, O-Rod, Tyla, Hozier, Headie One, Artemas, Cardi B, Lil Nas X, Bryson Tiller, they could all hypothetically show up next week and it would be a big one, so prepare for that and who knows what else? It’s 2024, anything can chart. As for now, thank you for reading, rest in peace to Cola Boyy but we go on and I’ll see you next week!

I loved your fic with bisexual reader and Daniel/Lewis threesome, it was AMAZING!
Could I request something about Dan and reader being in a relationship and it’s fairly early on and the reader is bisexual but Dan doesn’t know and one evening, maybe they’re watching a movie or something, and the reader comes out and starts freaking out thinking Dan will break up with them but instead he is the most supportive boyfriend ever 🥺
Hi anon! Thank you so much for your kind words!! It really means a lot ❤️❤️❤️
This ask has been sitting in my box for a while because I wanted to write something proper and do it justice!! This is a lovely idea and I’d like to think he’d just be the most supportive and lovely boyfriend!! He also has serious bi wife energy, you can’t persuade me otherwise!!
Reader is gender neutral in this fic, but it’s kind of implied reader is either female or non binary because it kinda doesn’t make sense otherwise! Just fluffy no smut here! Also The Mummy is my favourite movie and was 100% my bisexual awakening, so this is totally inspired by that. The cast are so damn hot it should be illegal 🥵
- You throw yourself down onto the sofa beside your boyfriend Daniel, who is absentmindedly scrolling through Netflix looking for something for the two of you to watch.
- “What’s the vibe? Horror, crime, rom-com?” He says, flicking through the various movie categories.
- “Hmmm, I dunno, anything jump out at you?” You say, digging your hand into the popcorn bowl between the two of you.
- “I’ve never seen this one before, I hear it’s good.” Daniel says, landing on the movie poster for ‘The Mummy’ and opening the synopsis.
- “You’ve never seen The Mummy? That’s it, decision made, let’s go. You’re in for the best hour and a half of your life.” You say, reaching for the remote control in his hand and pressing play.
- Twenty minutes in, you and Daniel are cuddled close, his eyes not even leaving the screen as he dips his hand into the popcorn bowl and tosses a few pieces into his mouth.
- “Fuck me the cast of this movie is so hot,” Daniel says, and you chuckle.
- “Tell me about it, I swear this movie was like, my bisexual awakening when I was younger,” you say, not realising you had just let slip the one secret you had been holding onto for so long.
- “Your what?” Daniel asks, looking over at you. Your eyes go wide as you try and think of what to say, your mouth opening and closing as you try and search for the right words.
- “I, um- I didn’t mean to say that I- I don’t know where that came from, uh… just forget I said anything,” you stutter out. You feel your cheeks flush, your head spinning and thoughts running a hundred miles an hour. Fuck.
- Daniel pauses the movie and turns to face you, but your eyes refuse to make contact with his as they fill up to the brim with tears.
- You stand up from the sofa, pulling yourself out of Daniel’s grip as you walk over to the window, glancing out onto the streets of Monaco as you try and clear your head.
- “(y/n)?” Daniel says, a sense of worry in his voice.
- “Daniel, I- fuck, I’m so stupid, please don’t hate me, please, I’m sorry, I…” You stutter, unable to form a sentence as you feel your heart beating out of your chest.
- You always told yourself you’d tell him eventually. After the first date, you said you’d tell him on your second, but then you never really had the chance. Eventually, he asked you to be his partner, and by then, things were going so well between the two of you, and you were so unbelievably in love with him, you couldn’t bare to tell the truth. You couldn’t bare the thought of losing him.
- And now you found yourself, six months in, so comfortable around your boyfriend Daniel you had accidentally let slip your biggest secret while watching a movie. Something only a handful of your closest friends and not even your parents knew about you. You were bisexual.
- You had known since you were a kid, but only started admitting it to yourself in your late teens. Having dated men, women, and people who identified otherwise in the past, you knew for sure you were bisexual. But after landing yourself in the public eye, you pushed away that part of you, only pursuing people of a different gender to avoid awkward questions and unnecessary biphobic hate on social media and in the press.
- “Hey, you don’t have to say anything more if you don’t want to. But I want you to know that if you are bisexual, that doesn’t change anything between us, at all. I love you, so much,” He says, walking over to you and wrapping his arms around your waist.
- You turn around in his grasp, and he offers you a sad smile as he notices the tear streaming down your cheeks.
- “Hey, don’t cry, please,” He says, wiping away an escaped tear with the pad of his thumb.
- “But I lied to you, you told me everything there is to know about you, you were an open book, and I kept this from you. I held back a big part of me and lied and- I’m so sorry Daniel,” You say between sobs.
- Daniel shakes his head and offers you a genuine smile, “oh love, you don’t need to apologise, I can’t even begin to imagine how hard it is to share something like that. I’m so proud of you, and so happy that you felt comfortable enough to share it with me, even if it was an accident,” He says, chuckling slightly.
- You manage a weak laugh as he pulls you close, and you rest your head on his shoulder, escaped tears soaking into the soft material of his hoodie.
- “So you don’t hate me?” You sniffle.
- “Love, why would I ever hate you for something like that? I love you so fucking much (y/n). So fucking much.” Daniel says, before pressing a kiss to your head.
- You look up at him and smile, a relieved look in your eyes as you feel all the tension in your body ease.
- “Just one more thing we have in common, eh? Now we can make looking at attractive women a couples activity,” Daniel laughs, and you can’t help but giggle too.
- Daniel releases his grip on your waist and takes your hand in his, guiding you back over to the sofa.
- He pulls you on top of him so you’re sat between his legs, your head resting on his chest as he gently runs his fingers through your hair.
- “You promise you don’t hate me?” You ask, looking up at him.
- “I could never hate you, ever, I love you and considering I had twice the competition to make you mine, I’m so fucking pleased and proud to call you my partner,” he chuckles.
- “I love you too Daniel. Thank you for being so good to me,” You say, offering him a small smile.
- Daniel winks at you and smiles, “let’s get back to the movie, huh? The gorgeous Rachel Weisz is waiting for us.”
- You rest your head on his chest and settle into the sound of his heartbeat as he presses play on the movie. Every so often you glance up at him, his eyes fixated on the screen once again, and you feel yourself falling even more in love with your boyfriend, knowing he accepts you just as you are.
