Today was your brother's last homerace with Scuderia Ferrari and your son being a huge Ferrari fan (thanks to his uncle) he wanted to attend the race.
************************************
The month before the race you started to notice how well he was behaving, it's not that he's bad kid, but he was behaving extra nicely for a 5 year old, you knew he wanted something.
The week before the race he started asking if could go to the race.
"Mama, I want to see the race"
"Lion, you have to wait until next week"
"I want to see the race with Uncle Seb"
"Uncle Seb will be at the race, he can see it with you"
"I want to go"
"To the race?"
"Yes"
"Okay, let me grab my laptop and we can call Uncle Seb and ask him"
You went to your bedroom to pick your laptop while Lion was waiting for you sitting on the sofa.
Once you returned to the living room, you set the laptop at the coffee table and started calling Seb.
As soon as your brother appeared in the screen Lion started shouting.
"Uncleee Sebbb"
"Hey buddy, how are you?"
"Good, no school"
"Lion, don't say that" you told him.
"Y/N, leave him alone, we didn't like school either"
"Yeah, but he didn't need to know that. Anyways, Lion here wanted to ask you something"
"Okay, Lion what did you want to ask me"
"Can I pretty please go to the race?" he asked Seb with puppy eyes.
"As long as your mum is fine with it I don't have any problem"
Hearing that answer Lion turned around and used the same tecnique he used with his uncle.
"Mama, please"
"Okay sweety, we can go"
He got up from the sofa and started running.
"I guess he will sleep good tonight" Seb laughted at your comment and after saying goodbye you hang up.
************************************
Lion woke up really early and couldn't stop jumping from excitement.
Once you entered the paddock and Lion saw his Uncle, he run to where Seb was a spend all the atached to his hip.
You used the time alone to wonder about the paddock while your brother and your son were enjoying their time together.
Seb being the proud Uncle that he is bragged about his nephew to everyone he came across.
Being his last home gp with Ferrari he had to attend a lot of interviews and he didn't want to bring Lion along, so when he saw Leclerc he asked him to bring his nephew to the Ferrari Hospitality where his mum was talking him what clothes you were wearing and what you looked like.
During the walk towards the Hospitality Charles started asking questions to avoid an unconfortable silence.
"So, do you like cars as much as your Uncle?"
"I like cars more than Uncle, he doesn't have a car bed"
"And you do?"
"Yes, Mama made it for me"
"That's cool, does mama like cars too?"
"Yes, she draws cars"
"Is that Mama's work?"
"Yep, her cars are cool, I want to drive them, but she doesn't let me"
"You are a little bit young for that"
"No, Mama and Uncle Seb used to drive at my age, it's unfair"
"Mama was a driver?"
"Yes, but she stopped before I was born, in Christmas we go karting and Mama sometimes wins against Uncle Seb"
They continued talking until they arrived to the Hospitality and as soon as your soon saw you he started running calling you.
"Honey, calm down, people are working"
"Sorry"
"Don't worry, but next time try to be less energetic"
"Mama, I made a friend" at that instant you looked up and your eyes come across Charles.
"Hi, I'm Cha..."
"I know who you are" you interrupted him "sorry, that didn't sound really nice, what I meant is that I'm a fan"
"Really? What does Seb think about you supporting his teammate instead of him" he said with a smirk on his face, he was totally enjoying your shitty fangirl talking skills.
"I support Seb first and them you, I could never support any other driver as much as I support my brother"
"Not even me?"
"No exceptions"
"So I can't change your mind with a dinner tonight?"
"Are you asking me on a date?"
"Well, as long as you boyfriend or husband doesn't care"
"I don't have neither of those"
"You don't have an excuse then"
"That's what it seems, I guess I could leave Lion with my dad for the night"
************************************
The date went smoothly and Charles and you exchanged numbers.
You keep contact with each other and he invited you and your son to the Italian GP, which he won and took both of you out to dinner.
By the end of the year you offically started dating each other.
Who could have told you that your son's need to see his Uncle during a race weekend would have meant meeting the love of your life.
I hope I didn't lose my writting abilities and that it wasn't so cheesy. It's great to be back and I have a lot of ideas for the upcoming stories.
English isn't my first language so there may be grammar mistakes.
You can make all the requests you want and I hope I can write them all.
