Caitlyn- Sure, now is fine.


She placed her phone down on the the table and took a drink of her apple juice. Bob's message sounded a bit off, she hoped he wasn't going to tell her he didn't want to keep in contact. She had already become reliant on him and being able to speak to someone about her day. Having someone interested was a new thing to her and she was enjoying it. Just then, her phone rang;

C- Hi Bob, are you okay?

B- Yeah I'm good but there is something I want to tell you. 

(Here it comes, Caitlyn thought to herself)

B- Well my name isn't actually Bob. Its Lando. Lando Norris. My email address is orange_bob because orange is for Mclaren and Bob is just a nickname some of my friends call me. 

Silence........

C- So you are telling me, that you're Lando Norris, as in the Formula 1 driver? And I am meant to just believe it.

B (now L)- I can prove it, I will send you a picture right now. Look I know its a bit strange but I like speaking to you and I didn't want to speak anymore without being honest with you. And also, you said you were going to Zandvoort next week and that's where I am going this weekend for work. It just felt right to tell you

C- Listen Bob, or Lando, whatever. This is all a bit much right now. I need to go. I will speak to later okay.

Immediately after she hung up, her phone buzzed and it was from him.

Bob- just wanted to show you it is me. I hope I haven't scared you off x

Caitlyn immediately phoned Michelle and told her everything

Caitlyn immediately phoned Michelle and told her everything. She was having a mini panic attack in the middle of a foreign city. 

C- What do I do Miche?

M- Well first things first. WTF Caitlyn!! He's famous and he likes talking to you. What is there to think about?

C- I don't know. It all feels a little too good to be true. He's so nice when we talk and I am so comfortable talking to him. He's read my notebook and knows my secrets and....and he's famous. What have I got to offer?

M- Look sweetie, he made up an email address to talk to you. He took time to write in your notebook and now he phones you. I think he probably likes that you got to know him without knowing the famous driver part. And now he wants to trust you with that information. I think you should just think about it. And plus, he hasn't actually asked you to do anything, he is just giving you more information about himself. 

C- You're probably right but I need to think about it a bit more before I message him back.

M- Let me know what happens. Love you always 

C- Love you too! bye babes
