Once in a lifetime

~Ticket Upgrade~

It was now the next day and y/n turned his alarm off before having a massive stretch sighing when he heard his bones crack. After dinner last night y/n tried to keep Lizzie at a distance but he couldn't help but keep her close. Something was pulling him in like a fish on a rod and he was determined to figure out why. Y/n and Chris had a quick blast around the arcade games before everyone went to get an early night ready for Chris's birthday and the first practice for the Ricciardo's race weekend.

"You ready for today little bro" Daniel says as he also stretches his body, wiping the sleep from his eyes.

"Yeah. Gonna get ready and see Chris so I can give him his bday gift" y/n replies standing up going to the bathroom to do his morning routine.

"Watcha got him?" Daniel asks when y/n returns as he stands up to do his morning routine as well whilst y/n heads to his closet.

"I've upgraded his tickets so their all gonna be in the pits with us instead of the stands" y/n says putting on a comfy outfit, not stressing if it matches seems a he will be changing into his race suit when their at the track. Daniel nods in response as he closes the bathroom door. Stopping it halfway to ask a question with a smirk.

"Is that Lizzie girl gonna be there?" He asks making y/n look at him with a glare.

"Since when did you meet her" y/n snaps back coming out harsher than expected. He was worried Daniel would try and drag her into bed with him as he knows how much of a player his brother is.

"Yesterday when Chris came down for you when you was sleeping. She's intriguing and I want to know her better if you know what I mean. Put in a good word for me will ya" Daniel says closing  the bathroom door as y/n stands there with anger written all over his face. He won't let him near her. He may be his brother but Lizzie seems to innocent for his games.

"Happy birthday buddy" y/n says giving Chris a bro hug when he answers the door. When they pull apart Chris stands to the side to let him past and into his shared room with scar. Scar and Lizzie are sat on the big double bed in the middle of the room.

"Thanks mate." Chris says as y/n walks past him with a smile.

"Oh hey y/n" scar says when she sees y/n making Lizzie turn around to offer him a smile seems as her back was facing away from where he stood.

"Hey y/n" Lizzie also says making the boy smile at the girls.

"Good morning to you both" he replies with what some would say attractive Aussie accent.

"Ready for your gift dipshit?" y/n asks Chris as the birthday boy also takes a seat on the bed next to the girls as y/n remains standing with his hands in his pockets.

"You didn't have to get me anything dude" Chris replies with a curious smile, wanting to know what y/n has got him.

"Of course I did" y/n says handing him an envelope with a smirk. Chris squints his eyes as he takes it from y/n before carefully opening it, not wanting to damage what was inside. When he pulls out the three tickets he gives y/n a confused look.

"We already have tickets for the weekend?" Chris says with a confused voice making y/n laugh as Chris scrunches his face up with the same look of confusion, looking at y/n for an answer.

"Look at the seats" y/n says as Chris looks back at the tickets, his mouth agape when he sees them say 'pit' instead of a seat number.

"You didn't" Chris says shaking his head as his childhood dream to watch a race from the pits has finally come true.

"Yes I did" y/n says as Chris stands up to pull him into a hug. The girls watching the interaction having no idea what's different from the tickets they already have.

"You guys are watching from the pits" y/n says to the girls over Chris's shoulder still hugging, when he notices the looks of confusion on their faces.

"Oh cool" Lizzie says as scar mouths a thank you to y/n after seeing how happy her boyfriend is.

When Chris finally pulls away his eyes scan back over the tickets. "This is gonna be so good. Are they for the whole weekend or just today?" Chris asks.

"The whole weekend" y/n says making Chris smile again. "Let's get going, I don't wanna be late. You guys can hop in our car theirs plenty of space. F2 provides us with transport so it won't cost you a penny."

"Come on girls! Let's get this race weekend started" Chris cheers as he skips to the door making the other three humans laugh as they follow behind.

"Thank you y/n. Like really thank you. He doesn't shut up about wanting to be in the pits when we watch the races at home" scar quietly says to y/n as she passes him giving his shoulder a squeeze.

"No need to thank me. He's been my biggest fan along side my family and he's been my best friend for many years so he deserves it" he replies offering her a smile as she passes him to walk alongside Chris and y/n next to Lizzie.

"Ever been to a race before?" Y/n asks Lizzie turning to look at her as they continue to walk.

"No. To be honest I didn't even want to come this weekend but Chris managed to convince me and now I'm so glad I came. It's been so good so far and I can only imagine it getting better over the weekend" Lizzie explains as they reach the elevator, stepping in along side Chris and Scar.

"This is where the fun really begins trust me. Also I'm glad you came I feel like I'm gonna be leaving with two new friends." Y/n says making Lizzie offer him a quick smile even though the word friend seems like an understatement.

'Surely I'm not the only one feeling a connection here' lizzie thought to herself before replying. "Yeah me too."
