Man-Flu ~ Fernando Alonso
♡ Fernando Alonso x Reader
Description: Fernando has a cold but you're there to comfort him.
~fluff~
Tumblr media
"Cariño, I think I may be dying."
"Fernando." You say softly, running a hand through his hair. "Darling, you have a cold."
Nobody could ever say your boyfriend wasn't dramatic.
The team doctor had even been around earlier in the day to check on him. All there was to it was plenty of fluids and rest.
He sniffles, "It feels worse than a cold."
You try not to smile but he's too darn cute.
"It is not funny." He says with a pout, his Spanish accent heavily lacing his words.
"You're adorable when you have the man flu." You argue as you pull the covers closer around him. "You'll be fine I promise."
"I hate being sick."
You did feel for him. Usually he was the one in control, the one whose body dictated his profession, his life.
"I know. But how about you just let me take care of you?" You suggest. "Get some rest."
He makes an affirmative noise before an attack of sneezing starts.
You make sure he's comfortable in your bed before you get downstairs to make him some chicken soup and refill his water bottle.
You're rewarded by one of Fernando's smiles when you reenter you bedroom a while later with a tray.
"Still can't sleep?" You ask.
His chest rattles with a cough, "No. Not without you beside me."
Even sick in bed, the man is still a flirt.
You climb onto the bed beside him and cajole him into drinking some soup and more water.
You go to clear the things up and leave him to get some rest.
"Don't go. Stay here with me."
You only have to take one look at him to know you can't say no to the wounded puppy look he's giving you.
So you put the tray away and lie down next to him. It doesn't take long for him to wrap himself around you like a giant koala bear.
You lie on your back and his curls up on his side and slings an arm across your torso and hitches his hip over your legs and his face resting near your neck.
It doesn't take long for his breathing to even out and you can practically feel him drifting off to sleep.
You smile at the feeling, it took a long time before Fernando had been comfortable with the notion of being vulnerable with you. He had built his entire racing persona on being tough and harsh and unreasonable.
To eveyone else he was Fernando Alonso. But with you he was just Fernando.
You must have drifted off to sleep because its dark outside when you open your eyes.
You accidently rouse Fernando from his sleep as you stretch.
He mumbles something in Spanish you don't understand and places a kiss on your neck.
You place a hand on his forehead to make sure he hasn't got a temperature and is hallucinating. But you breathe a sigh of relief when you feel his skin and its not burning up like that morning.
"What was that?" You ask
Your sigh turns to something between a moan and a laugh as he trails his kisses up your neck to behind your ear.
"I said, how did I get so lucky to have you Corazón?"
You turned your head so you can look in his eyes.
"I'm the lucky one." You argue with a pout you know is his weakness.
He shakes his head and gently takes the hand you had checked his temperature with and places a kiss on the back of it. "I love you."
"I love you too."
Fernando smiles as if he's just been told he's won another world championship.
"Now, time for you to eat something and get a good night's sleep, you will feel better tomorrow." You tell him.
He shrugs, seemingly having forgotten his self pity party, "I already feel better with you here."
"Well, it's a good thing I'm not going anywhere." You tell him and seal your promise with a kiss

F1 Tag Game! Tag some people you'd like to get to know better!
Tagged by the lovely @landinrris and @f1-birb
Who is your favorite driver?
Currently - Fernando since he started in F1 and have been a big fan of Lando since I saw him race in karting in Italy in 2013. Refuse to choose one over the other. Felt like it was kismet Lando joined McLaren back in 2017 (because of course it's all about me 😂).
Ex-drivers - Mika H & Jenson Button, and always had a soft spot for Fisichella. As you can see, I suck at choosing just one thing!
Do you have other favorite drivers?
Only talking current grid and their driving here - have always liked Max, even back when he was a stroppy teen, and recently he's pulled into a clear third fave for me, I really appreciate the driver and personality he has grown into. Same as with Lando, I've supported Charles since I saw him racing live when he was in karting, I think he's incredibly talented, so he's still high on the list. Have a big soft spot for Bottas (my belief that his talent was stifled somewhat by him taking the Merc no 2 seat so early in his career is a hill I will die on) and will always cheer on Alex and Yuki as I think people underrate them both a lot. Very glad Oscar has joined McLaren and looking forward to seeing him develop. I really appreciate Carlos's strategic racing brain (always like drivers who can think big picture) and I find it highly entertaining when George enters villain mode during races, because I'm always up for a bit of chaos in this sport. Have had a long held dream to see Max, Charles, Lando and George duking it out at the top of F1 (since the latter three were still in juniors) and am so happy we're finally (nearly) there.
Who is your least favorite driver?
None to be honest, but if I was pushed to name someone it would currently be Pierre. I don't actively dislike him or any of them though. Have never been someone who finds any enjoyment in hating people in any sport. I'd far rather concentrate on supporting those I love watching.
Do you pull for drivers or do you like teams as well?
I'm a team person, McLaren through and through. I do have drivers I like a lot outside the team as well though.
If you like teams, what team do you pull for?
Been a McLaren fan since I was a kid, grew up in a Tifosi household with a British mother so became a McLaren fan to support her and have been a died-in-the-wool fan ever since. Helps that I have also liked most of their drivers along the way. Have a soft spot for Williams due to their legacy and my formative years as an F1 fan being when they were still at the top of their game. Also from a nostalgia point of view, F1 is all about McLaren and Ferrari for me. I may not root for the Scuderia out of principle (despite being half-Italian 😂) but they are integral to my love of the sport.
How long have you been into F1?
Since the mid 90s though some of it is a bit blurry. Apparently I cried when Senna died (I don't remember it, but my parents were crying so I apparently came out in sympathy!) but conscious memory is cheering on Mika, he was one of my heroes back then!
What got you into f1?
My family - both through their jobs and their general love of motorsport (am a huge fan of motorsport across the board). Have quite literally been watching since I was a baby - I made my first trip to Monza at 1 year old 😂
Do you enjoy fanfic/RPF?
Yes sometimes, depending on my mood and the writer! (I confess to being a bit picky about what I enjoy on that front but that's my problem not anyone else's!)
How do you view new fans?
More the merrier. Gatekeeping is ridiculous. Sport is for everyone, nobody has the right to dictate who should be allowed to enjoy it or how anyone chooses to enjoy it. How the hell do long-time fans expect the sport to thrive and survive if they spend all their time looking down their noses at newer converts.
If you could take over as team principal for any team, who would it be and why?
None thanks. I have zero skills in that area and am not arrogant enough to think I wouldn't get fired after a week in the role 😂
Are your friends and family into F1 as well?
Yes, I come from a racing family. My great-uncle raced single seaters (not F1), through him we had some family friends who were big names in the sport (sadly now all deceased). My brother-in-law works in WEC as an engineer and I have an uncle and cousin involved in the sport as well (one involved in the management side of karting, one in the WRC). Have a large group of friends who are into F1, we used to get together to watch races and still do now when we can. Also my gf is a big fan as are her family, so that's a bonus!
Are you open to talking to other fans/making friends?
Yes, always.
I think most people have done this now so I won't tag anyone, just say anyone who hasn't yet, consider yourself tagged! Have loved reading people's responses and getting to know you all better.
