CHARLES

I guess she didn't want me the same way I wanted her since we haven't talked in a week. But with the Spanish grand prix looming, I knew I couldn't fuck up my career over her once again.

So I raced, I raced my heart out and placed 4th. Better than last time, but not my best.

LEIA

Lando sat on his bed, partially depressed, since he placed 8th, earning only 4 points for McLaren,

"That was my worst finish all year," he sulked,

"At least it wasn't a DNF," I said and he glared at me,

"That's not the point, I just- I wish I could do better,"

"I understand," and I gave him a hug while my phone buzzed,

"Who is it?" Lando asked, I take a quick peek at my phone, "Charles Leclerc",

"Someone from work," I brush it off. Later when I was alone I opened the message,

Charles Leclerc
You've been ignoring
me?

I decide to be cruel and don't reply back. But a few minutes later...

Charles Leclerc
I'll take that as
a yes

leia norris
i'm not, i was
just with lando

Charles Leclerc
Comforting him
after that finish?

leia norris
you guessed it

Charles Leclerc
I need some
comfort too, you
know?

leia norris
shut up

Charles Leclerc
Come over, I think
it's easier to shut me
up when we're face to face

And I knew that was the worst idea he's ever suggested.

CHARLES

I've been waiting for a while now, and I'm beginning to think she won't come. Maybe it's her idea of revenge, I stood her up so now she will stand me up too. But that seemed too childish.

I heard a knock and opened the door, Leia was there standing. She wasn't wearing anything special, just a top and some shorts that were made out of the same material as sweat pants. I was dressed in the same manner too, a shirt and sweat pants,

"What do you want?" she asked, barely looking me in the eye,

"I don't know, maybe I just missed a friend," I replied innocently, she stepped into the room and I closed the door behind her. She sat on my couch and I turned off the TV so I could hear her better (if she were to ever speak).

"Why do you make it so hard?" I wondered,

"Me? I'm making it hard?"she scoffed,

"Yes,"

"So you want me to betray my brother?" her voice began to rise,

"No, I just want you to listen to your heart,"

"You sound like you're from a Disney movie," she said as she rubbed her hands on her shorts nervously. I walked up to her and sat on the couch,

"No need to be nervous," I smirked and she frowned,

"I'm not-" she started, but she never had another opportunity to finish that sentence since her mouth was now on mine.

I kiss her back, like it's a habit, like I do it all the time. My hand cups her cheeks and her hand tugs on my short hair. I groan and she hums slightly into my lips as a response.

I deepen the kiss, and she lets my tongue in. As I explore her mouth, I pull her head closer, but she shocks me again by moving onto my lap (which does make it easier to kiss her). Now I definitely can't think, the kiss becomes sloppy because now I'm too busy roaming my hands all over her body.

I want every part of her to myself, every part to be touched by me. She moans into my mouth, and that was it. My whole body was tingling with need, and then she did the unthinkable. Leia rolled her hips on my lap (I don't think I've ever moaned before, but when she did that I definitely did). She smiled against my lips, and then there was a phone ringing, and she lifted her head up.

"No," I rasped, "Later," and I pulled her head back down, kissing her softly, my hands roaming her back. She ignored the call until it came again, this time I let her go and check who was calling. When she picked her phone up her face fell,

"It's Lando," she whispered to me.
