SYNOPSIS: You're the rising star of the new generation of actors, and you're attending the Met gala, where you meet Lewis, who turns out to be a great fan of your work.

Stepping out of the limousine that brought here to the met gala felt unreal. You smoothed out your dress when you stood up straight, adrenaline rushing through your veins. You were proud to say that your acting career is now experiencing explosive growth, but being allowed to go to the met gala wasn't something you assumed to happen any time soon. You made sure to smile widely as soon as you were in sight of the camera's. Your makeup was done beautifully, accentuating your features, just like the dress showed the best curves of your body. The dress was made by a small designer, and as the dress was incredibly stunning, you were more than willing to wear it to boost the designer's work and get his name on the bigger picture. The moment of fame on the red carpet was short, as the cameras were quick to move over to the person who followed. You looked over your shoulder to see Lewis Hamilton, who you had met at Silverstone when you were invited by Mercedes.

His eyes crossed paths with yours, and a smile curled his lips. You were about to continue your way up the stairs, but Lewis motioned for you to come closer and get into the pictures with him. "It's good to see you again, how are you doing?" Lewis asked, his arm curling around your waist in a gentle way, and you had to pose for the pictures before replying. "I'm great, thank you so much," you said. "You look amazing, by the way," he smiled at you again, and you now walked further together. His arm had dropped from your waist, slowly but surely. "So do you," you complimented him too. "You've been busy, right? Starring in three movies and a fourth one on the way? It's incredible," Lewis said, and it caused your breath to hitch in your throat. "You watched my movies?" you asked in disbelieve, not thinking he'd actually take the time to watch the movies you explained him about in Silverstone. "Of course," Lewis said with a soft chuckle. "I couldn't believe you told me you were just starting, it looks like you've been acting for all your life already," he continued, making your cheeks blush bright pink only more.

"I'm honored, really," you smiled. "It's amazing to be here as well, I never expected to go to the met gala this year. It's been a dream," you continued. "You fit in perfectly, don't you think?" Lewis said, and everything he said made sure that the smile remained on your face. You had to part ways after that, you were sitting at different tables too. You met amazing other celebrities and athletes, and it felt so great that many of them recognized you and complimented you on your work in the movie that has recently hit the theaters. After the formal gala, you could attend the after party, and you were looking forward to going. You were glad to meet Lewis there again, who brought you in with a quick hug. He introduced you to some of his acquaintances, and you had such a great evening in getting to know him even better. You admired his mentality as an athlete, and you thought his world was very interesting, as you had seen it at Silverstone. You were hoping to attend another race this year, but your filming schedule didn't make that possible.

You had a drink with Lewis at the bar, and you spoke about all sorts of things. You liked how down to earth he is, and he's such a great listener, and so motivational as well. Towards the end of the party, your agent informed you that your ride was waiting for you outside. Lewis offered to walk with you. You were able to go through the back exit to not come across too much press. "It was great to meet you again tonight, Lewis," you turned to him before you could get into the car. "Likewise, I enjoyed talking to you," Lewis smiled. "Are you still in New York tomorrow?" he asked then. "Yes, I am," you nodded, your heart fluttering with a spark of hope. "Let's have some lunch together, I'm flying in the late afternoon," Lewis said. "That would be lovely," you replied. "I will text you the details," Lewis added. You were just smiling up at him. "I'll see you tomorrow, then," you said. "For sure," he said, and he reached forward to kiss your cheek, opening the door of the car for you. You sat down in the backseat, and he closed the door for you. You waved at him as the car drove away. You got yourself a lunch date with Lewis Hamilton.
