Daughter of a Wolff | Formula One

49. Panic

We stayed in each other's arms for what seemed like hours. I just wanted to stay in this moment forever, safe in his arms without facing anything else. "Where are you staying tonight?" Charles asked softly, planting a kiss on my head

"I'll get the train back, I probably need to head back soon so I don't miss the last one" I replied, not loosening the grip I had on the back of his T-shirt.

"Liv?"

"Mmmhh"

"Do you want to come to Monaco with me, then fly out to China"

"Erm"

"No pressure, just to spend some time together and see what you feel."

"Are all the others going to be there?"

"No they'll all stay here for a few days, they have factory requirements for the rest of the week. Then some will probably go home but we don't have to see them or tell anyone."

"Ok, I'll have to see if my dad will pay for the tickets first"

"Don't worry about money I'll sort it, do you want to come?"

"I think so"

"I'll take that"

I started to pull away and look at my phone, sliding it out my Pocket.

*9.45pm

"The last train is at 10.30, I'll have to get that one"

"You can stay with me if you want to, I'm not far away but no pressure. I'll take the couch, you don't have to worry about travelling then?"

"If I say yes will you promise not to tell the others. Pretend that I am going home. I'm not embarrassed about being with you I just don't need the stress of people knowing till we work out what we are"

"Of course" he smiled and pulled me back into a hug. I took a deep inhale, I took in his smell and it made my heart flutter.

We hung out at the bar with they guys for a while longer until I said I needed to leave for the last train and Charles offered to walk me to the station. I called an Uber for us when we were out of sight of the bar. "Sorry I just"

"Stop apologising" Charles smiled and took my hand in his. "Your pace" he nodded and I gripped onto his hand. His hotel wasn't far away and we were in the room by 11pm. I watched as he started to get pillows and blankets out of the closet.

"What are you doing?" I asked

"I'll take the sofa"

"Charles you've just raced the hardest race of the season " I said softly, "you don't need to sleep on the sofa. We could just share the bed"

"I'll do whatever you want me to do"

"Charles I want you to just be normal, don't tiptoe around me"

"Ok" he replied moving to head to the bathroom.

I'm not going to be back tonight, don't worry I'm not drinking! I'm just going to crash at Juniors rather than getting the train back

Papa🥰
Be safe. Text me when you're on your way home tomorrow.

Olivia.
About that... I need to talk about something when I come home.

Papa🥰
What?

Olivia
I'm going to go to Monaco for a while, just until the next race.
