"You want me to turn you into your brother?" Paul Blackburn laughed softly at Natalia. "You can't be serious."

Paul Blackburn, Natalia's and Sam's hairstylist, Natalia had arrived where Paul worked with her friends Grecia and Laura, she had just told him the idea. Natalia would turn or at least disguise herself like her brother and take his spot in the Alpine team for the Formula One races, at least for the time being.

"Why not? It isn't a terrible idea." Natalia looked at Paul confused. "Yeah, a little crazy but it can work."

"Natty, sweetie, you and your brother are not that similar." Paul sighed and looked down at his client while he trimmed her hair.

"No one from the Alpine team has seen Sam, this week it would be their very first meeting." Natalia said explaining her idea.

"Social media exists Natty, you think they haven't searched him up or something?"

"I worked on that, all of his profiles are private and I did some of my own magic to edit his personal information online." Laura spoke up, she had knowledge of editing codes from computers, things Natalia didn't really understood but admired from her.

"Okay, how are you gonna work with the post races interviews or when people see your face, you think Sam's admirers won't figure out that he doesn't look the same?"

"I can say I got some eye lift and I lost weight." Natalia quickly answered at Paul's question. "Come on Paul, this is my opportunity to shut them all up and prove that a woman can be a Formula One driver, that we can be just as capable even more capable than them."

"Oh, I am in, come on Paul." The client of Paul spoke up, the older lady turn back and smiled. "I believe in this kid, come on Paul."

The four women pleaded up at Paul, the stylist just looked surprised at all of them.

"I can't believe you Mrs. Baker, you are in this too?" Paul looked at the older woman completely amazed.

"Yes, I wanna see her kick their sexist butts, I'll make sure to cheer you on princess." Mrs. Baker turned to look at Natalia and held her hand. "I am rooting for you." Natalia thanked her and returned her gaze at her friend.

"We will even do a makeover montage just how you've always dreamt of." Natalia smiled widely at Paul, the man stopped for a moment, behind his eyelashes he looked up at Natalia, a smirk appearing at the corner of his lip. "Is that a yes? You're smiling cause you want to do? Am I right?"

"I hate you so very much." Paul said in defeat, the girls and even Mrs. Baker cheered. "Okay settle down, just wait until the salon is closed, for now, Grecia, Laura," Paul turned to looked at the pair. "Take Natalia outside and study men's behaviors, she needs to learn how to walk, talk and act like a man, not the cliche ways she knows, that might be too obvious that something's off or that she's too weird." Paul joked and received a slap from Natalia before she headed out.

"Perfecto, debe actuar como un inútil, desgraciado y caminar como si tuviera comezón entre los huevos" Natalia said the moment she headed out the salon with her best friends.

"Okay, first of all not all men are assholes and useless, I mean, Paul is gonna help us, and he's a guy, and you're brother is not that bad. Laura said crossing her arms over her chest, her eyes scanning the streets, seeing how many guys walked by, some on their phones talking, others listening to music, and the rest either minding their business or turning their heads around to the world around them.

"So, where should I even start?" Natalia pressed her lips together as she studied the man that walked past them.

"Walk behind them, mimic their actions and see if you're comfortable with anything, change guy when you're not that sure." Grecia said placing her hands on Natalia's shoulders she slightly shook her after talking. "Come on, you got it. We will be right here if you need us."

"You got this, you want to feel inspired, put on some music." Laura took her AirPods out and handed them to Natalia. "And have fun, kay?" She added and waved her goodbye as she gently pushed her towards the busy street.

The music started, the makeover montage playlist began with The Man by Taylor Swift, the attitude of Natalia changed, her face expression focused as she carefully walked behind a man in a suit talking on the phone, she mimicked his movements, how he walked with his legs a bit too far apart, how his hand gripped tightly on the phone while the other passed through his blond messy hair.

When she saw that the guy was going too far, she followed behind another guy, a black man in gym attire, his strut was confident and tall, his head high and a few times he drank his protein shake. Natalia did the same movements, just a little bit more exaggerated, and she wasn't gonna lie, she was having the fun of her life, the music kept on blaring on her AirPods, her focus completely changing from succeeding her goal to enjoying the moment.

"Is there a problem?" A man shouted turning around to face the dark haired girl, Natalia just walk past him and apologized saying she was dancing to the music. After a few laughs she returned to her friends, the two of them giving thumbs up at her, the music cut off and Natalia looked at then waiting for a response on what would be happening next.

"Paul texted me, he's ready for us." Laura smiled mischievously at Natalia, "and he said, and I quote, I hope you don't mind getting new eyebrows and a beard." She laughed as she ended her words, Natalia's green eyes widened even more at just the sheer horror thought of having a fake beard.

"Oh god, Paul please don't make me regret this decision." Natalia said to herself, her two friends pulling her into reality as they all walked back to the salon, and as expected from the girls, Paul was ready at his place, bags and stuff scattered at his work station, wigs and fake sideburns set in variations of dark colors that would match Natalia's hair color perfectly.

"Well look at you, you look ravish, and ready to take on the world with your new image mister." Paul said teasingly towards Natalia, who was hesitant to even sit down, she was ready of course, but now that the reality struck, well the idea seem to out of this world and very insane.

"I can't take it back anymore, right?" Natalia asked looking back, her friends and Paul shook their heads towards her.

"You can't, Nat, you will show them that a woman is so capable just like a man to be in such sport, to not divide genders, you got this." Laura said giving her best friend two thumbs up.

"Okay, we are ready, cue the music, we are going to make this woman look handsome." Paul smirked at his reflection, an assistant of him played on the salon speakers 2000s' music, it blared everywhere.

Paul began his work picking Natalia's hair in braids and hiding them with a hair net to place various wigs that matched perfectly with Sam's hair, keeping it longer, then the sideburns were placed, which made Natalia laugh, jokingly saying how she wanted one that were too bushy on the sides. Lemonades and Mimosas were placed in front of the females as they all looked at how the professional continued his work, from placing fake mustaches to beards on Natalia's face and then regretting such decisions.

Then the clothing process began, Sam has been someone who like to dress up, look stylish, but how to make it work and hide the curves and extras of Natalia's body that could put this process on risk.

"Babe, you need to be extremely careful and cautious when it comes to out on the bandages, you have such an amazing body, but girl, we might need some miracle or something." Paul added as he looked at the reflection of Natalia, her upper body was cover with bandages to hide her figure, she didn't have too much but she had enough to make presence, Natalia had been looking at the way they tangled it around her body so when she had to do it, she didn't made a mistake or something.

"I know, I've been looking at what you guys have been doing to my body, I kinda need to bulk up a little bit, just to not look so..." Natalia looked at her body, her legs that were bare with only shorts, she knew her brother was fit, he had a lot more muscle, she hoped that there were no opportunities or situations where Natalia had to be with shorts or something like that.

"Don't go overthinking about this stuff Nat, you can do this, you'll be wearing oversized clothing but still looking fashionable like Sam, and then I'll give you clothes to put when you wear your suit and it doesn't stick to your figure, even though that might be a bit hard when you sweat and stuff." Paul added again resting his hands on her shoulders. "I'll be there whenever you need me, I'm just a call away, and I'll prepare every clothing for every trip, and if you want to, I'll join in your crew, I'll be your assistant or something." He said smiling, Natalia answered back the smile with her own, her heart warming up at the thought of having him around, supporting her.

"Do we really need to teach her how to spit or something like that?" Grecia asked looking at Paul and back at her friend who she didn't recognize anymore.

"Oh yeah, guys do that all the time, they're disgusting." Paul rolled his eyes and smiled at his creation. "God, someone better give me an award for this, Natalia, I must say, you and your brother are so scarily alike."

"Yeah, what about it." With a deep fake "masculine" voice Natalia answered back. "Oh yeah, I totally got this, and to make this more believable, I'm staying with Laura these weeks, just so I can't be at home in case my mother decides to barge in."

"Oh yeah, about that." Paul stopped Natalia. "The Grand Prix, how are you gonna work with traveling and your mother no being suspicious about it?"

"Easy, I'll make her believe that I'm working things out again with Dylan and that I'm joining him for the paddocks and stuff, she will fall for it." Answering back, her friends and Paul were surprised by the quickness of her solution.

Now everything had to work out, she had to make things believable, she had to make Alpine buy that whoever walked into the first meeting next week was Samuel Castro, not Natalia dressed up like her brother. And not only make Alpine buy it, make Alpine choose her to be a driver at least for one race at any Grand Prix, at least before her brother got back.
