From friends to lovers - Pierre Gasly

- 1 -

"Mommy look I made a friend, his name's Pierre and his parents are from France!"
"Wow, honey, it's your first day and you already made friends here! I'm so proud of you!"
"Hihi thanks mommy, can me and Pierre play outside? Pretty please!"
"Of course you can! I'll call you when dinner's ready and Pierre what time is your mom picking you up?"
"I don't know, I think about 5pm."
"That's alright, do they know our address?"
"Yes, Y/N already told them."
"Alright then, have fun you two."

-Time skip to when they're 15/16 idc it's a long time skip, idk what to write LMAO -

"Pierre wait up! You know I can't run that fast!"
"Haha, catch me!"
They were like kids running after each other around a tree.
"Hey Pierre look! Our initials are still in this tree."
"They will stay forever and that means we'll be friends forever."
"Best friends."
"Yeah best friends, I couldn't imagine a life without you."
"Shit, I gotta go, my mom expects me home! See ya later bye!"
"Bye, miss you already."

Pierre POV
When I got home I heard my parents yell at each other, as usual.
"No Pierre will come with me and we'll never return! Pierre pack your things we're leaving to France, forever!"
"What mom, you can't do this to me, I have to at least say goodbye to my best friend."
"Fine, we'll make a quick stop at her house, now pack your things for God's sake."
"yes mom.."
I cried in my pillow, I couldn't lose her, not now, not when I started to get feelings for her.
"Pierre hurry up!"
"Almost ready!" I said within my tears, I am going to miss her more than I should.

Y/N POV
"Y/N! Visitors!"
"Coming!"
I wonder who that can be, I storm downstairs to see a devastated Pierre stand in the doorway.
"Hey, what's wrong." I said as I ran into his arms.
"I'm leaving to France, so I might never see you again."
"W-what, y-you're kidding, right?!"
"I am so so sorry, it's not my plan."
"Just wait here I'll be right back."
I ran upstairs to grab 2 matching bracelets.
"Here, this is for you, so if we see each other again, we'll know because of the bracelet. But promise me, you will not lose it!"
"I won't I promise, I'll never take it off."
"Come here, I never expected you to leave this long.."
"I'm sorry, if it was me I would just stay here forever and see you every day."
The hug felt like forever until his mom yelled.
"Pierre come on we really have to go!"
"Guess I'll better get going then.."
"Bye Pierre, I love you, stay safe out there and most importantly: please don't forget me."
"Bye, love you more, I will never forget you, even if I wanted to, which I don't because I really, really love you.."
I watch him get into the car and drive away, hoping I'll see him again soon..
We still keep in contact, via Snapchat, twitter, Instagram and obviously WhatsApp. I really miss him, even though he's gone for only a day. I don't think I'll survive living without him for the rest of my life.
He literally tells me everything: how he got into karting and probably goes to formula 4.. I know it's his dream to become a famous formula 1 driver one day but... He'll probably forget about me once he's famous.
That thought really hurt me.

Pierre POV
I am stupid, I should've told her how I think about her, that I want her to be my girlfriend but I don't want to hurt her. We've always talked about hating a long-distance relationship and if I did ask her to be my girlfriend our friendship would be ruined, probably.
I just hope she doesn't think that I will ever forget about her, not even when I'm a famous formula 1 driver and have loads of fans. I will do anything to see her again, to have her in my arms again, because that feels like home...
"Pierre are you coming! This is a very important race!"
Right the elections for formula 4 are today, should've told Y/N about it...
"Coming mom!"

- at the race -

Wow there are loads of people here but as I expected Y/N isn't here. Couldn't blame her though, I'm the one who didn't tell her. As I get into my kart I see a beautiful girl walk into the paddock, Y/N, she's here. I have to wait until after the race to hug her, I will win, for her. The whole race all I could think about was her, her eyes, her hair, her smile, her cute nose and of course her laugh.
The race is starting and I'm starting from 3rd which isn't bad but it makes it a little hard to get 1st. But I will do anything for Y/N.
I have a great pace and I'm currently 2nd, I see the person in front of me getting closer, and closer. Last lap. The person in front of me is even closer now, but so is the finish line.. And then... I overtake the person who was in front of me and I end up in 1st place.
I see Y/N running towards me.
"That was amazing, God you better get into formula 4 now, you definitely deserve it."
"Well I hope so.. Hey, look at my arm."
"The bracelet!" She says, smiling up to me, she's a few inches shorter than me, but that's adorable.
"I've done anything to keep it on for the big race, it took a while, but here we are."
"You still have your helmet on you know, can you take it off so I can see your handsome face please."
"I'm all sweaty you really don't want to see me like this."
"Actually I do, so take it off."
"fine."
I take my helmet off and I see her staring at me, she's so pretty I really can't believe she's staring at a guy like.. Me.
"You look amazing, Pierre."

-afterparty-

"That's my best friend you guys, my best friend made it into formula 4, he's definitely going places."
"Alright Y/N, that's enough." I say laughing. But I'm laughing the pain away because I just got friend zoned..
"Come on Pierre let's get to your house, I'm staying for 2 days."
"Wow, really!"
"Yeah, come on!"
