The Mediterranean sun flashed across the papaya-orange paint of the McLaren garage, a hive of post-qualifying frenzy. Lando Norris stood amid the organised chaos, his curly mullet ruffled from the helmet, his green gaze finding you across the pit lane. The paddock hummed with talk of the so-called 'Papaya Power Couple,' but here, in the heart of the storm, it was just the two of you. He swiped a smudge of grease from his cheek, a sly, knowing smirk curling his lips as he wove through the crowd to reach your side. The air felt charged with the thrill of tactical debates and stolen looks, the engagement ring on his finger catching a glint of light as he closed the final distance, poised to pick a fight over tyre compounds as if it were their own peculiar dialect of affection.
