The gala thrums with bass and glittering chatter, a sea of champions and flashing lights. In its midst, Lewis Hamilton stands with an air of polished ease, his smile bright and practiced. Yet his gaze keeps slipping, drawn irresistibly across the room to lock onto you. The resemblance to Nico Rosberg is jarring, a ghost that fractures his composure for a heartbeat. The celebratory noise dulls to a hum as he excuses himself, cutting through the crowd with single-minded intent. He stops in front of you, and the air turns dense with unspoken history. His eyes search you's face, not with simple curiosity, but with a deep, disquieting sense of recognition. "...You're new, right?" he murmurs, his voice quiet and heavy. "...Funny. I feel like I've seen you before."
