SIX

"How's my favorite Al Najjar sibling doing on this wonderful day?"

Daniel Ricciardo grinned as he entered the apartment of the siblings that they shared, to see the elder of the two siblings sitting on the sofa with a mug of hot chocolate in her grasp.

He immediately kicked his shoes off his feet and placed his bag down before he jumped over the back of the sofa so that he could sit beside his friend, smiling as she shuffled closer to him.

"I'm doing good. Fayez said that he was going for a run but he came back after ten minutes and has gone for a nap." 

Omorose Al Najjar smirked as she rested her head against the shoulder of the Ricciardo man, feeling his arm wrap around her waist lightly.

"That man has the fitness levels of a roadblock."

Daniel laughed happily, knowing how his best friend was completely useless when it came to exercise, despite his many attempts to beat his friends.

Fayez was one of a kind.

He was a loveable idiot, his friends knew that all too well. He was so competitive with his friends that he would almost die trying to equal their personal bests.

Omorose was also one of a kind, just much more sensible than her little brother.

"So what's the plan Rosie?" Daniel smiled as he rested his head on top of the brunettes own head, since the two of them had gotten used to each other enough that she felt comfortable around him.

She treated him like a best friend and a brother.

"The plan was to wake Fayez up and drag him to meet Seb and Jenson, plus anybody else that comes along." Omorose smiled, surprisingly looking forward to seeing the others again, having spent the past week and a half not seeing them.

"And how does your highness suggest waking up the loveable oaf that Fayez is?" Daniel spoke in a fake British accent, making the two of them grin at just how stupid he sounded.

"I have a nerf gun hidden under the sofa if you want to use that." Rosie giggled in excitement, seeing the Australian immediately nodding his head up and down.

The Ricciardo man took note of how the woman took the cushions from off the sofa to lift up a small section, revealing a hidden storage space that held a large nerf gun and multiple foam bullets for it.

The nerf gun was handed to the Red Bull driver, whilst the female Al Najjar sibling ran to grab a water pistol, ready to wake up her brother from the nap he took after only ten minutes of running.

The duo slowly creeped in to his bedroom, noticing how Fayez was laying on his back with his mouth wide open, his curls awol and wild whilst his arms and legs were spread out as if he was a starfish.

Omorose took her position standing beside him, making sure that her water pistol was aimed at his open mouth, whereas Daniel was stood on his bed, standing above him with the berf gun aimed right at his forehead.

The two counted down from five in a whispered voice, the pair opening fire at the exact same time which caused Fayez to launch awake.

He gargled as water was sprayed in to his mouth, having to cough to avoid swallowing it whilst both of his hands shot to his forehead where he had been shot multiple times by his best friend.

"You evil little shits!"

Fayez Al Najjar yelled as he rushed to swipe the legs of the Australian man still standing on his bed, before he launched himself in to his sister so he could lift her over his shoulder and body slam her in to his bed as if they were professional wrestlers.

Omorose released a high pitched squeal as her brother attempted to jump on top of her, a large grin on his face though that smile faded as soon as  his sister managed to roll out of the way.

"You're not The Undertaker!"

Omorose panted heavily as she hid behind the Red Bull driver, using him as a human shield. Whilst she was older than her brother, she knew that now her brother was much stronger than her. He never used to be, but as they grew, he was able to lift her with ease.

"What about Triple H? Ray Mysterio?" Fayez grinned with childlike excitement, using the names of the wrestlers that he watched growing up.

"لا شيء أيها الأحمق."

Daniel could only watch with a large grin on his face as his two best friends bickered once again, before they started hitting each other with pillows.

God, they were so alike.

"Hey Rosie."

Lewis Hamilton smiled as he walked up to the Al Najjar woman, who had stepped away from her brother and their friends to grab a coffee from the nearest coffee shop.

"Hey Lewis, are you alright?" Omorose questioned the Mercedes driver with a small smile on her face, leaning against the outside wall of the coffee shop whilst she drank her cup of the warm beverage.

"I'm alright, are you? You just kinda disappeared from the group all of a sudden." Lewis spoke gently to the woman, seeing her slowly nod her head up and down.

"Sometimes I just like my own company for a couple of minutes." She admitted sheepishly, watching as the man's eyes widened slightly.

"Oh right, sorry I can go, so you have time alone." Lewis attempted to step away, hoping that she didn't get upset that he had invaded her space.

A hand shot out to grab his wrist, stopping him in his tracks, with the Hamilton man turning his body to find the hand of the brunette on his wrist.

"I don't mind having company, even when it is yours." She gave him a cheeky smile, noticing how he shot her a playful smile of his own before he took his place back next to her.

"So, have you written any Cook books lately?" Lewis questioned with intrigue, knowing that she would write Cook books whenever she was bored.

"I have actually only written one in the past few weeks." She admitted with a smile on her face. "And it's a Vegan cook book."

"You wrote a Vegan Cook book?" Lewis felt a warm smile filling his face as she laughed, nodding her head up and down.

"Well, you're the only Vegan I know, so I figured that I'd write one so that you can have rabbit food when the rest are eating." Omorose shot him a teasing wink, her smile growing as she heard the sound of the man's laughter hitting her ears.

"Oh that is so kind of you." Lewis spoke with sarcasm filling his tone, enciting a small giggle to leave the throat of the woman beside him.

"Hey, are you two coming with us?"

Nico Rosberg smiled as he approached the two of them, a small pang of jealously hitting him as he noticed just how close they seemed.

"Nope, Lewis here has to go to the pet store to buy his dinner." Omorose blurted out, a loud laugh leaving her throat as the Hamilton man gently pushed her shoulder, a grin on his own face.

"I'm sure that we'll pass one on the way." Nico chuckled, offering his arm so that Omorose could link her arm with his, but found that she walked straight past him.

"Come on, rabbit! You need your dinner!"

The Al Najjar woman shouted as she walked away from the two teammates, both of whom immediately rushed after her, though only one of them had a large unshakeable grin on his face.

And it wasn't Nico Rosberg.

"Who's garage are you gonna watch the race in, sis?"

Fayez asked his sister as he walked alongside her, his arm wrapped tightly around his sisters shoulders, pulling her against his side.

He wouldn't usually walk this close to her or be this soppy with her, but she had made him a bunch of his favorite food, which was something called Machboos.

He felt like he kinda had to suck up to her in order for her to keep making his favorite food, since otherwise he had to count on either Seb, Jenson or Daniel to make it for him, but it was never as good compared to how she made it.

"Ooo I might go and watch it in the Mercedes garage, or Ferrari since both Seb and Lewis invited me to watch them race in their garage." Omorose grinned as she walked, a slight hint of suspicion in her body as she had an idea why he was being so nice to her.

"Well I'll be at Red Bull with Danny." Fayez grinned proudly.

"I didn't ask, bro." Omorose coughed out, a smirk on her lips as she noticed her brothers offended face.

"Hey! Rosie!"

Lewis Hamilton shouted loudly as he noticed the Al Najjar woman walking through the paddock, running over to see her.

"Hey there, rabbit."

The Hamilton man rolled his eyes teasingly as he noticed her large grin, his own smile matching hers in its intensity.

"Are you coming to Mercedes to watch the race? Or do you have other plans?" Lewis smiled as he questioned her, noticing how her fingers were underneath her chin as if she was deep in thought.

"Well, Seb hasn't come to greet my amazing self, so... sure. I'll get to see what kind of pet food you have to eat." Omorose laughed before stepping out of her brothers grasp, noticing how he was frowning at her, probably jealous that he hadn't been invited by the world Champion to watch him race.

Lewis held his arm out for her to loop hers with, much like his team mate had done previously and been rejected, and found that much to his surprise, that she linked her arm with his with zero hesitation.

"You can see my trailer if you would like to, that way you can see why Mercedes is the best." Lewis playfully teased her, seeing the smile he liked starting to grow on her face.

"I'd rather see your car, that way I can find out why your cars are so ahead of the others." The woman smirked, waving at the team boss of Mercedes as he took note of her, waving back to his guest.

"And spill our secrets to Daniel or Sebastian? No way!" Lewis lightly nudged her arm with his own, letting her know that he was joking.

"I'd more likely spill them to Fayez."

"That's even worse! Every single team would know then, because you know that your brother can't keep a secret to save his life."

"That is true, Fayez can't seem to shut up." Nico interrupted with a chuckle, wrapping his arm around the shoulders of the Al Najjar sibling, not noticing how she immediately tensed up.

"It's a good job that he doesn't work as a spy, because he'd just spill secrets as soon as somebody said hi to him." The two Mercedes drivers laughed together, whilst Lewis frowned at how closed off Rosie had suddenly become.

He lightly tapped her hand with his index finger, gaining her attention, noticing how she was forcing a smile at him.

"Nico man, are you able to grab Rosie some water?" Lewis asked his team mate, who immediately agreed, walking off to fetch a bottle of water for the woman.

The Hamilton man noticed how her body immediately became a lot less tense, making him furrow his eyebrows together, his eyes narrowing slightly.

"Are you okay?"

Omorose nodded her head with a small polite smile, before her body shuddered for a brief moment.

"I'm fine, I just don't like it when anybody other than Fayez and Danny has their arm around my shoulders. You know, men." Lewis immediately nodded his head in understanding, getting what she was meaning.

As he noticed that his team mate was still to return, he took it amongst himself to take her for a tour of his trailer, so that hopefully she would come back out of the shell that she had just suddenly sunk in to.

He knew that he didn't like the look that was on her face, where she looked uncomfortable, as if she wanted the whole world to swallow her whole, so he vowed to never let it happen again.

He vowed to make sure that Omorose Al Najjar was never made to feel uncomfortable again, ever again.

A/N

Here I am again, with another update

What do you think?

Fayez is my loveable little muffin and I love him so much!! His Muslim faith will be shown more as well, as well as Omorose's understanding and acceptance of it. Since she's not a Muslim, she will be there so that he doesn't have to pray alone, (something she has done since they were children)

Can't remember if I said it in the last authors note, but I have also got faceclaims for their parents because whilst their mom is dead and dad is awol, I will show some flashbacks from when they were children.

Anyway, I hope that you all enjoy this chapter and I'll see you all soon for the next one,

I'm so proud of all of you, my loves

Love you all,

-RUBY
