You wake up the morning feeling oddly well rested, you roll over and check the time 11:23am. No wonder, I got like 10 hours of sleep last night. You head downstairs to check on the girls.

Yup, just where I left them. All of them still passed out on the couch.

Quietly you make a cup of coffee, and some toast heading outside so enjoy your breakfast in the fresh air. Heading back inside you hear Luisa start to stir.

"What time is it?" You hear her ask.

"It's almost noon," you say softly.

"Ughhhh, my head is killing me." She says sitting up.

"There's water and Advil on the coffee table, and there's a bathroom down the hall if you need to throw up." You say as the others start to stir.

"Oh my god my head," Charlotte says.

"Please make the room stop spinning Maddie," Anna says squeezing her eyes closed.

"There's water and Advil on the coffee table, and there's a bathroom down the hall if you need to throw up." You say again. "And there's coffee when you're ready."

Slowly but surely, everyone gets up, and heads over for some coffee.

"I'm going to go shower; please promise me no one dies until I get back." You say, and everyone groans in agreement. You head upstairs grabbing a pair of sweatpants and a tank top and hopping into the shower. You get out and quickly blow dry your hair, putting on a light layer of makeup grabbing your Alpha Tauri cap before heading downstairs.

"Everyone still alive?" You ask.

"Barely." Charlotte mumbles.

Anna looks at you. "Oh, thank God you're not dressed up. I don't think I could handle trying to look good at the moment."

"This is probably the only race that I can look like this for, so I'm going to enjoy it," you say settling into the couch. Slowly they all get up, shower and change into comfortable clothes, coming back to the couch. You laugh as you see Charlotte come back in red sweatpants, a black tank top and sunglasses.

"Don't laugh at me," she says smiling, "the sun hurts my eyes."

The three of them sit on the couch, Charlotte in her sunglasses, Anna has her Ferrari hoodie up and Luisa is falling asleep in one of Lando's sweaters on the couch beside them. You stand up and take a picture, sending it in your group chat – cheer squad ready for action.

Max: Puke n' Rally Ladies

Daniel: Round 2 tonight, let's goooooo

Lando: A+ Ferrari section

Charles: Sunglasses?

Charlotte: shut up, the lights hurt my eyes

Carlos: first round tonight says they don't make it through the race

Pierre: Carlos, it's at your house tonight, first round doesn't count if it's free

You: Tonight?

Luisa: hey, I'm alive... barely

Max: I'm flying the boys back tonight so we can all celebrate together

Daniel: it's not a party if we're not all together

Anna: awe Max you big softie

Max: shut up

You look over at Anna. "Did you know they were coming back tonight?"

"Carlos said something about something, but I honestly can't remember right now," Anna says.
