Love, Eternal

Leclerc's

Pierre drove into the track with Nola in the car. Charles had left separately with his trainer and Pierre decided to come and pick Nola up which she was certainly not mad about. Nola knew Arthur and Enzo were already here as well as Arthur's race was starting soon. She went to get out the car and Pierre grabbed the door to his Honda and held out his hand to help her out. He was such a gentleman, she stood up and locked eyes with his beautiful blue ones, her hand tingling where he touched. His navy Alpha jacket suited him well with his dark jeans
"Do you have to be so nice?" Nola asked him, she could see other drivers, fans and journalists all around them so their french conversation was kept semi private
"Yes" he replied, she smiled and he kissed her forehead before shutting the car door, it was better weather today, not great but it wasn't raining. They walked into the paddock together, going through the barriers and being greeted by further cameras and journalists all around the paddock. They walked down towards the team buildings, Nola's pass swinging from her neck, her hoodie keeping her warm.
"I'll meet you at the track in a bit to watch Arthur" he spoke as we reached the Alpha Tauri building
"You're coming?" Nola asked
"Of course, gotta keep the Leclerc family on my side haven't I" he said laughing
"Oh ssh you. I'll see you in a little while then. And thank you for picking me up" Nola replied to him, he gave her a hug and she walked a little bit further up to Ferrari to find her brother.

"There she is" Carlos was the first to greet Nola when he saw her. Nola waved at some of the Ferrari team who said good morning to her before walking up the stairs with Carlos. They were always so nice
"You okay Carlos?" Nola asked speaking in Spanish to him
"Sí, cómo estás?" He replied
"Soy buena" he smiled at Nola before she walked through the open door of Charles' driver room where he was sitting with his trainer
"Bonding with Carlos?" He asked as she come in
"I love Carlos" She replied, he smiled "When is Arthur's race?"
"In 30, we'll go down and see him in a minute I just need to speak to some people first" he said, Nola nodded and flopped down on the sofa next to him "Are Freya and Pierre coming to Nice?"
"They are, is Charlotte?"
"She is of course, it's going to be lovely" Charles said, he went over some bits with his trainer and did a quick reflex exercise while Nola took out her phone and scrolled through Instagram and Twitter to pass the time.

As she walked down the paddock towards the pit lane with Charles, Nola saw Pierre standing outside his building, as they got to him he walked with the siblings, he gave Nola a playful nudge before jumping into conversation with Charles.
"How you doing Charles?" He asked
"I'm good, how are you?" Charles replied
"Good, tough about losing pole yesterday"
"It was, but we've got today. Are you coming to watch Arthur?" Charles asked
"I am yeah, see how the littlest Leclerc is doing" he said smiling
"And you're coming to Nice with us I hear?"
"Yeah can't wait. Thanks for the invite it will be nice to see everyone after so long. I've rented a place in Monte Carlo for a few days so I'm going back to France to see my family and then I'll come over to Monaco until we leave for Miami" he said
"Oh that's good, maybe we should go out with the guys one of the nights?" Charles asked
"Yeah that sounds great. I know both Daniel and Lando are going back to Monaco as well, then there's Alex and Max" Nola was walking behind them and apparently completely invisible as they rambled on, Nola thought about getting all the girls together for a girls night. Lando being in Monaco meant Lusinha was there, Daniels girlfriend would be there, as would Alex's as she lives there as well, then there's Charlotte and Freya. Hmm interesting
"Yeah let's do it, I'm sure Enzo will come as well, what day will you be in Monaco?" Charles asked
"Probably the Thursday?" Pierre replied
"Let's do Friday night then?" Charles suggested they both nodded and Nola rolled my eyes as she walked towards the pit lane, seeing her other brothers there. She decided to text Charlotte and Freya, she had Luisinha's number from when she met her so she text her as well. She would just need to find out how to ask Lily and Heidi, so Nola text Luisinha that as well, she would probably know. Nola wasn't looking where she was going and literally face planted someone's chest and dropped her phone.

"I am so sorry" the males voice said as he scrambled to pick up Nola's phone at the same time she did, which made the pair bump heads. Nola felt so embarrassed.
"No it's okay, I wasn't looking where I was going" Nola stood up holding her head, the stranger holding her phone, Nola out her hand to take it back
"Oh yeah sorry, here we go" he said, he placed Nola's phone in her hands and she looked up and saw him. She recognised him, he had the most intense brown eyes, he was just staring at me, "You're Nola Leclerc aren't you?" He said finally after some awkward silence
"I am, and you are?"
"I'm Jake Hughes" he said
"As in F2 driver?" Nola asked, it was common for the f2 drivers to follow around f1 as support, the ones they didn't the f3 did. Nola knew f2 wasn't racing this weekend and it was confirmed as he wasn't in any race wear, just generic clothing.
"That's me" he said
"Well thank you for picking up my phone, sorry about bashing into you, and then hitting your head. Hopefully you're not concussed" Nola said which made him laugh
"No worries, hopefully I'll see you round" he said, and Nola nodded. Nola sighed and checked her phone as she walked away, no damage thankfully. She looked up at her three brothers and Pierre staring at her. She walked over and smiled
"Erm sorry what was that?" Charles asked, Nola looked towards him. She was confused by his question, she rubbed her head again where she had smacked it against Jake
"What do you mean? I walked into him?" She questioned
"He was so flirting with you" Arthur said laughing, her eyes snapped to Pierre, the look on his face confirmed what her brother was saying
"He can flirt all he likes then can't he" Nola said as she walked to Pierre, she tried to give him a hug and he was so stiff. Nola's brothers started up a conversation amongst themselves as they walked to Arthur's car leaving Pierre and Nola alone. She walked in front of him looked up at Pierre.
"Pierre?" She whispered. He ignored her. She wasn't having this, they had just had a conversation about this. Pierre was being bitter, he didn't like the way that boy looked at Nola, that's what infuriated him, he heard him, who knew who she was. How could he not, she was stunning. Pierre was pulled back when he heard Nola again "look at me" She said a bit more stern but keeping her voice quiet. He reluctantly looked down at Nola
"Yes" he said, it was cold. Not the Pierre tone she liked
"Don't be like that, honestly that was nothing" Nola said
"I don't like that" he said stern
"Well it doesn't matter because it was nothing" Nola wrapped her arms around his waist and put her head on his chest, she could hear his heart beating. "Love me" She said, which she meant for attention from him
"I do, that's the problem" he said. Nola lifted her head of his chest and their eyes met with his
"What?" Nola's eyes widened
"That's why I'm so jealous, because I do" he said
"First of all Mr Gasly if you're trying to say what I think you're trying to say, you can 100% do it in a nicer more appropriate setting and not while you're being so cold, secondly why is it a problem?" Nola said, it made him laugh which was a breakthrough at least
"It's a problem because it's how much you mean to me and I'm scared you'll find someone else and I'll be broken without you" he said
"Well I'm not, you're stuck im afraid" Nola said to him. She was surprised by his words, she never realised he was also scared of similar things to me "and I know it's been rocky but you really don't have to worry, same way I'm not going to worry about you. I trust you" Nola said, Pierre smiled
"A more appropriate setting it is" he said quickly. What did that mean? He finally wrapped his arms around Nola and she laid her head back on his chest as he held Nola close to him. Jealousy isn't a nice thing, Pierre sighed and kissed the top of Nola's head.
