Christmas in July- Mel's version- Christmas Shopping at Ala Moana Shopping Center-A Sarzhou Fan fiction

 Author's note: Let's just say with Christmas is coming in just a couple of days then this is where another writing project coming in the way with Sarzhou; I am going to definitely add this one into the 'Christmas in July-Mel's version' writing project series and I am so sorry if the ending of the story does feels truthfully rushed out to be honest however let's just say: I do truthfully enjoyed this particular writing project with Sarzhou and honestly: I do have to truthfully admit; I am not going to truthfully lie--I do truthfully really miss Sarzhou and yes, I do truthfully love Sarzhou as both a rare and a platonic pairing between each other therefore enjoy this particular fan fiction from me to you all while I am still working on the 'Christmas Tree shopping and decorating' writing project with both Logan and fem reader that is.


Also, let's just say this is a 'self-indulgent' Fan Fiction I did actually wrote it for a very long time plus also . . . let's just say I do wanted to truthfully get the Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Stix- Unicorn Blizzard as a special gift to treat myself as yes, I did truthfully managed to survive the whole of 2025 on both a serious and a personal note; no joke.


Plus although Logan's GF isn't in this particular fan fiction however she is truthfully mentioned in the conversation between the both of them that is.


On a different note: I am very much of a pro Sarzhou and a pro Loscar at the same time as well a pro Lolex as well when we are truthfully talking about Logan's relationship with the drivers plus yes, I too am a pro Charles and Logan [I don't know what are their pairing name so I am so sorry about that; everyone.] As well as pro Chewis/ Chewie [Charles Leclerc and Sir Lewis Hamilton] and also pro Lestappen as well as pro Logan and George Russell in general however when it comes to both G*x and L*nd*sc*r: I'm sorry but I truthfully don't think they are truthfully my own cup of a regular hot mocha coffee as honestly; I do truthfully find G*x to be a toxic pairing in my own opinion while L*nd*scar; I tried to truthfully liked them but then again, they aren't my own truthful cup of a hot cup of mocha that is; no joke.


Plus those are my own thoughts about the whole F1 pairing of who do I truthfully preferred and those who I didn't truthfully liked them in my own opinion. (Sorry if you are a sincere fan of either G*x or L*nd*scar or both thus they aren't my cup of hot mocha that is; thus no offense to everyone who is reading this particular blog post on my personal blog that is; no joke.)


Anyway, here it is; plus please don't guarantee any actual promises on when is the next going to be up and published on here by the way and I'll see you all on the other side.


*Trigger warning: None--thus this is a very fluffy and a light-hearted Fan fiction that is. 


(*Author's notes: Unless if you do actually count the short-lived F1 career Logan does have mentioned in this particular fan fiction along with the mentions of Landoscar and the L*nd* N*rr*s mentions by the way so again, no 'true' offense to anyone or anybody who is both truthfully and generally a pro Landoscar thus I'm sorry, Landoscar aren't truthfully my glass of Blue Lagoon Mocktail that is in my own opinion not especially after how Oscar had been treated in this particular year of 2025 alone thus argh, apart from secretly praying for a Max world championship; I too am rooting for Oscar to win the championship too if it might not be Max then it might be Oscar but instead; it is . . . ugh; you guess it--L*nd* N*rr*s who won this year's F1 world championship from this particular season alone thus  . . . ugh: I'm sorry but . . . hearing L*nd* winning this year's WDC--I'm sorry but it just makes me want to truthfully . . . wanting to be both an instant Pro Oscar Piastri [Instantly, literally and truthfully as well as unconditionally as well] and also silently; a Pro Max Vestappen too as well. Plus also if you are an actual Pro L*nd* N*rr*s and a Pro L*nd*scar then I am sincerely sorry for having to truthfully let everyone know that I am an anti L*nd* N*rr*s plus an anti L*nd*scar too as well; I'm sorry. And also; no 'true' offense and disrespect towards the fans especially if they are a pro L*nd* N*rr*s and a pro L*nd*scar that is in general so I am so sorry about that.)


Hawaiian words mentioned in this particular writing project:

Ohana- [Pronounced as 'Oh-ha-na(h)']- Family in Hawaiian language


'Ohana means family; family means no one gets left behind or be forgotten.' -Stitch; Disney Lilo and Stitch


Also, speaking of 'Lilo and Stitch'; let's only talk about the animated version of both the movie and the TV series of the 'Lilo and Sitch' franchise thus honestly; forget the live-action version where Disney tried to made a 'Live action' version where although it does takes place in the island of Oahu; but it does feels more like a 'disappointing; watered down version of a live action remake of a Disney movie' regarding on the whole live action version of the 'Lilo and Stitch' movie thus I'm sorry but the animated version of both the movie and the original animated TV series in my own opinion are both the MVP version of the Lilo and Stitch franchise in the comparison with the 'Live action' remake of the 'Lilo and Stitch' movie; I'm sorry; if there are the better version of the live action versions of the Disney movies; I would say it is definitely both Cinderella which I do think it is released back in 2015 and also the 2023 version of 'The little mermaid' where oh boy, it is one of the better live action remakes apart from the 2015 Live action version of the Disney Cinderella movie that is; no joke.


Kane- [Pronounced as 'Ka(h)-nay]-  Man in Hawaiian language


'Aiea- [Pronounced as 'Ah-ay-ah'/ 'Ah-eh-ah']- An area located at the Western part of Oahu, Hawaii


Plus the usual disclaimers: I don't own any of the pictures; they aren't mine and credits goes to Zhou Guanyu, Logan Sargeant and Gulf Oil plus everyone else whom they had worked their magic behind the scene both in person and online that is.


Plus all events mentioned in this particular writing project of mine are entirely fictional therefore there is no need to truthfully take this seriously as when it does truthfully happens in real life realistically.

"What do you think of this one: Zhou?" Logan asked Zhou while he picked up a set of the Fenty Beauty Beauty Gloss Bomb Universal Luminizer beauty gift set as he searching for a Christmas gift just for you while he went shopping at Sephora at the Ala Moana Shopping Center with Zhou as the both of them had stayed in touch discreetly just as when Logan gave him the life updates of what he had been doing lately in the island of Oahu, Hawaii.


"I don't know, the more important question is 'Does she even liked the gift just as how she does genuinely and unconditionally liked you?': Logan?" He replied to you while the both of them are now standing at the front of the Fenty Beauty shelf while they both went shopping at the Ala Moana Shopping Center at Honolulu, Oahu: Hawaii.


"I don't know, Zhou; it seems that sometimes it wasn't easy to search for a gift for someone else thus no 'true' offense to everyone in general that is; especially for those whom they had to truthfully do their last minute Christmas shopping for presents; Zhou." He moaned as he placed back the Fenty Beauty gift box onto the Fenty Beauty shelf back to it's original position while a pair of men whom they are searching for a gift for their friends at their 'Secret Santa' Christmas Party where they are supposed to be sending their friends a very surprising gift just for them as they observed how they walked past by them casually while carrying a Barnes and Noble shopping bag where they noticed they did actually bought an F1 book; a Lonely Planet Guide on Spain; a book about the history of Christian Dior and an unofficial YA version of a biography book about BTS in addition to also a Lestappen Funko Pop figure; a history coffee table book about sneakers from the countless different shoe brands where they usually do sneakers in their very own companies from the very beginning of their own respective companies plus a matching Lestappen undated lined notebook from Moleskine where they may have assumed that one of the guests whom they had also invited to their Christmas party might be a 'true' and a 'die hard stan' fan of Lestappen.


"Don't be so hard on yourself: Logan, I mean I'm sure she'll love you just as much as how you do have a group people whom they had stuck with you for a really long time in your very own life: I mean . . . no offense to you, Logan: didn't want to sound dismissive though; sorry." He replied to him while noticing Logan's dejected facial expression on his face just as when he is on the verge of giving up his search for a Christmas gift just for you.


"It's okay, no offense taken: Zhou. I mean  . . . honestly; I didn't realized how sometimes there is more to life than getting a Christmas gifts for your loved ones but then again . . . you may never know how are they going to truthfully react when they did get the gift from you but . . ."


"Don't worry, as long as she loves both you and it then you know; you'll be the luckiest man in the universe; Logan." He replied to him while placing his hand on Logan's arm as a woman said "Oh, excuse me." While she walked past by them with a small Sephora black shopping basket where she had gotten herself a couple of Korean anti aging skin products perhaps either for an older family member or an older relative otherwise it might be a friend of the woman whom she had asked for a couple of anti aging skin products.


"Oh sorry, my bad: ma'am." Zhou replied while they both moved aside to let the older woman pass by them as she walked past by them to head towards the cashier to ring the items she had gotten it from here.


"Oops; sorry." Logan apologize sincerely while moving aside as he ended up watching a pair of younger women wearing a pair of orange Mclaren shirt as one of the said 'Lando' and the other said 'Oscar'.


"Ugh, I mean  . . . no offense but Lando and Oscar? I mean come on, I had a conversation with both Oscar and Alex about whether are they going to Hawaii or not and it turns out they both are going to Hawaii but Lando? Come on now." Logan thought sulkily as he did have reservations about both Lando and Oscar as a duo and also Lando himself as an individual he knew the reason why there are so many people whom they are true Loscar fans does preferred both Logan and Oscar as they knew they had known each other ever since their racing days.


"Logan, are you feeling okay?" He asked the American whom he had a very short-lived F1 career for two years in total just before he moved to the islands of Hawaii especially towards the island of Oahu where he had met you and also he had also start a brand new chapter of his very own life in the island of Oahu, Hawaii as well as getting a brand new job working at Rainbow Drive In Restaurant in addition to also working at the Twin Fin Hotel as a surf instructor for the Jaime O' Brien Surf School where he had spoke to you all about it in the very beginning of the relationship between you and him.


"Yeah, I'm okay." Logan replied while they both continued to watch more people walking past by them just as when a pair of young women walked past by them as they sported a pair of bright yellow jerseys of the L.A Sparks as one of them whom she does have a white Puma cap on her head as well as an updo hairstyle where she lets the ends of her moderately short black where the ends of her hair are light blue does give the 'flare' to her hairstyle does actually wear a Liatu King jersey which her official jersey number with the L.A Sparks in number 4 since both number 2 and 20 are already taken by both Rickea Jackson whom she choose number 2 as both the actual and the official jersey number and Julie Allemand whom she had chosen number 20 as her official jersey number which means Liatu had to choose another jersey number so she decided to choose number 4 as her official jersey number while Alyssa Ustby whom she normally wears number 1 as her jersey number had to choose number 14 as her official jersey number ever since Sania Feagin had chosen and taken jersey number 1 as her official jersey number therefore she [Alyssa] decided to choose number 14 as her official number jersey; knowing that her friend whom she had the same moderately short black hair but this time with the ends of her hair is in a dark teal color as she had tied it up into a low bubble ponytail where she uses multiple black elastic hair bands to create the bubble ponytail as she had her pair of wired noise cancellation headphones glued to her pair of ears as she spoke towards her friend about something.


"Huh? Oh, I'm sorry: I'm feeling truthfully okay thus honestly; I am observing a pair of ladies with their dip-dyed hair as well as a pair of L.A Sparks jerseys and also how one of them does truthfully have a pair of headphones glued to her pair of ears."


"Wow, we did watched them walking past by us; did we?"


"I'd think so, are they tourist or local people?"


"I don't know, Logan; maybe they are tourists to me that is."


"Perhaps; Zhou; maybe they are Japanese tourists ever since you know that there are so many Japanese tourists coming to the islands of Hawaii especially towards the island of Oahu, Hawaii: Zhou."


"Wow, that's amazing! I'd think there might be some that would be wearing your merch too as well."


"No offense but can you please not bring this up into the conversation between the both of us? Thus no offense to you, Zhou but still . . . I am still feeling truthfully . . . traumatized from how I had gotten into a wild goose chase by the people whom they are both actual F1 fans and my own fans from my own fanbase by the way." Logan replied to Zhou; feeling truthfully sheepish about how the other day he got truthfully 'mobbed' into a wild chase by both the F1 fans and his own fans alike on the other day when he was searching for a Christmas tree and a set of Christmas decorations.


"Oh sorry, Logan. Thus I did truthfully forget that sometimes you are no longer in F1." The Chinese driver replied to the American; sounding truthfully apologetic towards him as he did sometimes truthfully forget that Logan is truthfully no longer in F1 as he got dropped halfway through his second season for the Argentine F1 driver in Franco Colapinto whom the both of them still maintained a friendly platonic relationship between the three of them.


"I know, Zhou; sometimes it does feels really hard to know that I am no longer in F1 and yet I had gotten replaced by Franco himself." He replied dejectedly; sounding as when he is feeling truthfully traumatized by what had happened in his short-lived second season at F1.


"It's okay, Logan; you don't need to truthfully be too hard on yourself thus no offense to you plus sorry if I didn't meant to undeniably sounded as if I am dismissing the point here; sorry, Logan." Zhou replied to him gently; empathizing with the part where Logan had been criticizing way too hard on himself yet he had also placed the blame on himself both internally and externally.


"It's okay, Zhou; thank you so much for your reply. Anyway . . .  on a different note; speaking of fan merch; did you saw anyone or anybody wear your merch?" Logan piped up as he decided to shift the conversation into another topic where he wanted to speak about a much lighter topic on the Christmas Shopping between the both of them.


"Well, the other day; when I went to the DTS shopping center at Waikiki; I did surely  remembered about how I did saw a group of tourists whom they are wearing both the Kick Sauber Merch as well as my own merch based on how they are following a tour guide at the streets of Waikiki the other day when I was searching for a gift for one of my good friends back at home in Shanghai." Zhou replied; referring to an event where just two days after his arrival to the island of Oahu as well as checking into the Castle Bamboo Hotel at Waikiki; he had decided to explore around both Honolulu and Waikiki for two days in a row and today is his third day on his current trip towards the island of Oahu, Hawaii.


"Awesome."


"And what's even more surprising is that they had waved at me perhaps maybe they did truthfully recognized me with my iconic Kick Sauber Dragon cap where I am now wearing the same cap now as when we are talking about today."


"Wow; that's so cool and amazing!"


"I know, I wonder why so many people didn't recognize you in the islands of Hawaii thus . . . again, no offense to you; Logan." Said Zhou towards Logan while he did sounded sheepish when he had mentioned about why so many people didn't recognized Logan when he first arrived towards the island of Oahu, Hawaii however instead; he wanted to live a low key life where he can live like an actual 'normal' person in a very long time at a different location while building a brand new chapter of his very own life.


"Oh, it's mostly because I did wanted to live a low key 'normal' life definitely more so after the trauma I did have to truthfully experienced back during my second season in F1 that is; Zhou: I'm sorry if I hadn't gotten either in touch with you, Alex or even everyone else that is in my very own social circle that is after I got dropped out from F1 that is." Logan replied again meekly; feeling truthfully guilty about how he didn't get in touch with either Zhou, George: Alex, Oscar or even anyone else whom he had met from his short-lived F1 season.


"Don't apologize, Logan: I know it must had been a really tough second season for you, Logan--I'm sorry." Zhou replied to Logan, sounding undeniably compassionate towards the American former f1 driver.


"Don't apologize too, Zhou--I am feeling truthfully happy to have our reunion at the island of Oahu, Hawaii platonically between the both of us." Logan replied shyly towards him.


"Sure, no problem: Logan: I do felt the same way too as well platonically as well, Logan. Anyway: do you want to truthfully get anything else for your . . . girlfriend: Logan?" Zhou replied to him just before he shifted the conversation but this time, it is about the actual Christmas gift where Logan did wanted to truthfully get it for you as his 'actual' girlfriend however he is feeling truthfully uncertain about what does he wanted to truthfully get for you.


"I truthfully don't know what do I want to get for her but at the same time: I did also wanted to actually get the Fenty Beauty Gloss Bomb Stax in Unicorn Blizzard ever since she did wanted to truthfully get it as the follow up item towards the Tarte Maracuja Shiny Lip Gloss she has in both shimmering pink where we got it earlier and also the pearl one as well, Zhou."


"Cool, do you also wanted to get the same Fenty Beauty Lip Gloss except maybe it is the normal Gloss Bomb Universal Luminizer Lip Gloss?"


"Maybe; but I am not exactly sure which one does she wants to be honest, Zhou."


"Oh, okay; do you surely wanted to get it now?"


"Sure, let's do this; Zhou."


-


As both of the kanes walked over to the Fenty Beauty counter where Logan immediately picked up the 'Unicorn Blizzard' Lip Gloss; meanwhile Zhou is browsing through the different swatches where he now had picked up the Fenty Beauty Lip Gloss but this time in the permanent shade of Champ Stamp Fantasy which is a shimmering holographic gold pearl just before the both of them head off towards the cashier and along the way, Lo had also picked up an eye and lip make-up remover just for you thus he may have the thought of how you might needed a make-up remover which is especially made for both the eye and the lip area.


"So how is your girlfriend by the way, Logan?" He asked him while both of the kane joined in the long queue where the customers are now patiently waiting for their turn however they also have to dealt with impatient customers whom they did argued with the staffs where they are trying their best to remain a cool, calm and collected mindset while dealing with impatient customers whom they are arguing about why certain items had be restocked in either a week or a few weeks time just before the actual day on New Years Eve where they may have the option to either take the actual day from their respective job or otherwise; they can make the option of going to work to fulfill the gap of the other employees where they had left off just before they took their time off from work due to the holiday season.


"Girlfriend? I mean honestly; I don't truthfully think she is my actual girlfriend and all but still . . ."


"Yeah, but you do realized that she had been in love with you unexpectedly ever since she had first met you at the surf store where she first worked there before she officially moved to the Halekulani Boutique Souvenir Store as her full time job now to be honest."


"I know but sometimes I do truthfully miss the surf store where she does truthfully worked at there while her manager is also the same man whom we got invited by him where we went to the West of Oahu for the neighborhood Christmas Light Walking Tour we did it the other day."


"Plus his wife's home made churros are so delicious too as well surprisingly when we did visited them upstairs ever since their downstairs floor are in the middle of the process of a renovation where they did told me about the part where there is a water pipe needed to truthfully be repaired in the kitchen while one of the bathroom downstairs does have to be repaired on the flooring since they wanted to change the flooring materials to something strong; steady: stable and even water resistant all at the same time." Logan replied to Zhou while he continued on the conversation between the both of them; speaking about the event on the other day where you and Logan--the both of you had visited your former boss and manager whom they did recognized the both of you and welcomed the both of you in their own home while offering the both of you home made churros with both savory and sweet dipping for the home made churros and meanwhile they also spoke to the both of you all about the Christmas Lightning Show at both Honolulu and also the area of 'Aiea where your former boss and manager of the surf shop where you did worked at there just before they had been replaced by another surf store but this time it is mostly popular amongst tourists and influencers in the comparison to the original surf store where you are currently working at there where it is popular amongst both 'normal' customers both local people and tourists alike as well as the famous surfers and influencers just before the other surf store had taken over the original surf store where you used to originally worked at there. 


"Wow, that's amazing and that's so cool; Logan and honestly; it is so wonderful you reunited with her former manager too as well; Logan."


"Yeah, sometimes I do truthfully missed that particular surf store where she used to work at there while he is also her manager at the same time as well thus this is where I did noticed they had a 'found family' or a 'found ohana' trope that is at the store; Zhou."


"Awesome: I'm sorry to hear that the surf store where she used to work at there as he had been her former manager had been closed due to a number of reasons; Logan. It sucks now it had been replaced by a surf boutique where it does have the similar feeling but it is mostly popular amongst both the influencers and tourists alike in the comparison of the old surf shop where you used to work at there before it's closure and she did have to made the move to the Halekulani Boutique Souvenir Store."


"You could say that again, Zhou. Anyway, I might think my girlfriend might be more of an 'alleged' girlfriend thus I couldn't truthfully tell whether is she an actual girlfriend of mine or not; Zhou."


"Well, I know I didn't want to sound truthfully deflective towards your actual point here but still . . . You might want to reconsider your words about calling her your 'alleged' girlfriend; Logan thus no offense to you, Lo."


"Oh, okay; sorry: my bad; Zhou."


"Don't be sorry about calling her 'your girlfriend', Logan: thus you may never know how she might be your actual girlfriend based on how she had truthfully loved you in every steps of the way unconditionally; literally; sincerely and also steadily all at the same time in your very own life and vice versa on how she does both truthfully and unconditionally yet obviously; she does actually love you unconditionally, literally and sincerely altogether: Logan."


"Oh wow, that's amazing, Zhou--thank you. Maybe I do needed to truthfully needed to let her know that; Zhou."


"Awesome, shall we ring this up?"


"Ring what up?"


"Oh, the items we already got; Logan. Maybe do you want to get some more from here, Logan?"


"Maybe but not from Sephora because I do really think there are presents I wanted to get it for her own ohana back at home in San Diego; Zhou."


"Cool; let's go off to Nordstrom or perhaps to Yeti; shall we?"


"Definitely."


Then the both of the kanes went to ring up all of the items they had truthfully got it from Sephora as your official Christmas Present from their Christmas Shopping where they are now currently doing it at there just before they can either head off to Nordstrom or the Yeti official store at the Ala Moana Shopping Center.
