Love Is My Drug (Sebastian Vettel)

Chapter 6: Car Launching

Red Bull Racing set the 3rd of February as the car launch date. The launch itself would be held at Milton Keynes factory. The team did the preparations as maximum as possible throughout the month of January.

In January, Clara used her time to learn more to be a driver's press officer. She discussed a lot of things with Nira. She was very helpful as she taught her everything. She told her that she had to record whenever Seb was interviewed by the media. After that, she had to give the recording to the admin of their team's website, so that they could publish it there.

She also told her that she had to accompany him whenever he was attending some events, which meant that she had to know all of his personal sponsors and also the dates he would attend the sponsors' events.

Car launch day! Clara couldn't wait to see the brand new RB9. She always loved the Red Bull livery as it was always very cool. She was sure that the car would bring them to be the champion once again.

"Mum, dad, today is the launch day!" Clara announced excitedly to her parents.

Tatiana laughed to see her reaction. "Yes, Clara, I remember that. You must be very happy and excited."

"Of course!"

"Clara, please take photos of the car as many as possible," David requested.

She smiled as he was as excited as herself. "Okay, dad, I'll try my best."

"Good. Hmm should I drive you there?"

"It's fine. I can go there by taxi."

"Well, I think that I should buy you a car," he started considering it.

"No, dad, you don't have to. One day, I will buy it from my own salary," she said firmly.

"Nice to hear it. But if you really need a car now, I will give you some of my saving," he offered.

Clara refused it. "Thank you so much for your offer, dad, but please don't do that. I don't want to trouble you anymore."

When they were talking, all of a sudden they heard the sound of a car horn. Then, Clara asked for their permission to open the door. She could hear that they were following her behind. When the door was opened, how surprised they were to see Seb go out of the Infiniti FX car he drove.

"Good morning, everyone!" Seb greeted them.

"Seb! Why didn't you tell me that you'll come here?"

"Yeah, I'm sorry, but I just want to pick you up here."

She smiled sheepishly. "Oh, thank you. I was about to go by taxi."

"Do you want to come into our home first, Seb?" David offered him.

"Thank you very much, David. Maybe next time. I promise to come back here when I can."

"Clara, where is your bag?" Tatiana asked her.

"Oh, it's still in my room. Thanks for reminding me, mum." Then, she told Seb, "Please wait a minute."

Clara went into her room first to take her bag, and before she went to the Milton Keynes factory with Seb, she said goodbye to her parents. On their way to go there, they had a little chat.

"Wow! This car is so great and luxurious," she admired the interior design of the car.

"Do you like it?" he asked.

"Yes, of course I do. But I know that this is very expensive. You took part in the making process of this car, right?"

"Yes. I gave some ideas that I had and I shared it to them, both for the interior and exterior of the car."
