FLASHBACK – MIA

"Mia...." His voice broke.
"Charles..." I wanted to encourage him to finally tell me what was going on. He looked terrible and also drunk.
"I love you, Mia, I love you so much." He slowly lifted his hands and cupped my face.
"And I love you Charles. I was so happy to finally see your name on my phone. I need to talk to you. Something happened and I can't deal with it on my own..." I started and I was about to tell him what's going on but he stopped me.
"No Mia please I need to talk to you first..." he looked me deeply in the eyes "but first I need to kiss you.." he whispered then he pulled me closer to him and kissed me passionately. It was a different kiss I could feel that something strange is going on but I choose to ignore it. I missed him I haven't seen him for a week I needed him. I was trying to slightly pull away and take his shirt off but again he stopped me.

"I really want to continue but I can't Mia." he looked at me and took a step back.
"Tell me then, is it about the next year in Formula1?" I took his hand and came closer to him.
"Yes and no...I didn't get in...Ferrari decided to go with someone else, but that is not important now.." I was confused....how is that not important. It was all he ever wanted.

"First I need you to know how much I love you. I wasn't always the best for you but I love you deeply Mia. You know that right?" he looked desperate.
"What is going on Charles? Why are you telling me this..." I didn't understand where is this coming from...why is he acting like that.
"I was drinking really bad and it doesn't meant anything to me Mia, I wasn't myself in that moment..." he started and I couldn't believe what is about to happen.
"I was alone and drunk and she came up to me...." What the fuck is he trying to tell me....
"I love you Mia only you, you have to believe me you have to forgive me...I can't be without you..." his voice cracked.
"Stop...stop...stop....STOP!!" I screamed at him.
"I can't I don't want to hear it..." I shook my head in disbelieve...what the hell did he do. What is happening right now. I was out of breath....what did he do to me...
"I love you Mia, please, come here..." he was trying to come closer to me but I moved across the room.
"Don't go near me...who was it?" I was heartbroken I was mad I was furious.
"I don't know....I don't want to know, It didn't mean anything. I love you...this doesn't have to change anything."
"It changes everything Charles....what the fuck were you thinking. You ruined everything, you ruined everything we had." I was screaming and crying....
"I made a mistake Mia..." he came closer to me a took my hand.
"DON'T. Touch me." I was so angry with him.
"You have to hear me out...I can fix this, please give me a chance." I could see he was serious.
"What is there to fix....there is nothing...you have sex with a random girl, Charles.." I didn't want to cry because of him but I couldn't help myself.
"I feel terrible Mia okay, I don't know what...I'm sorry baby, I'm so sorry...I can't be without you." he sat on the couch and watched me.

I expected a lot from tonight, but not really this. He destroyed us. He destroyed everything we worked for. I was always there for him. I needed him now like never before. I needed him and he betrayed me. I couldn't even look at him. I should have run away, I shouldn't be here, with him, in the same room. But I couldn't move, I couldn't do anything.

"I should hate you, I should hate you for what you did to me. For how you made me feel right now...." I broke the long silence between us.
"But the truth is I just can't..." I said quietly, I was broken inside...
"I want to fix this baby, let me fix this, please..." he looked into my eyes and searched for hope.
"I can't do this, Charles...." I sighed.
"I gave you so many chances already.." I felt defeated.
"I know I have to work on so many things but let me be better for you..." his eyes watered.
"I need to go Charles I can't be here with you, I don't want to look at you, I don't want to talk to you..." I took my things and walked away from him and he let me go. He let me go...

I know I wasn't supposed to want this but I did. I wanted him to go after me...I wanted him to fight for me a little bit more. But he just let me go.
This wasn't the night I imagined, I was going to tell him what happened but I didn't even get the chance. Now I am all alone, probably pregnant and heartbroken.
What did I do to deserved this....

I wasn't ready to be alone I didn't want to be alone tonight.
On my way home I called Lando, I needed a friend I needed someone I can count on.

It was 2am and I was hysterically crying in Lando's arms. He was there for me always.
He was kind of used to it, because every time Charles did something stupid he was there to fixed it.
I told him everything...well not everything. I left the "positive pregnancy test" part out of it. I was ready to tell only Charles not anyone else...I don't know what I'm going to do now.

"I'm so sorry Mia, I'm sorry you have to go through this again..." he was hugging me really tight and all I could do was cry....
"I'm done with him Lando, I can't do this anymore....I am just done." I said through tears.
"He is not good for you, he doesn't deserve you..." he whispered into my hair and stroked my back.

I don't even know how he did it, but he managed to put me to sleep. When I fall asleep he put me to bed and stayed on the cough just to be there if I needed him.
He was doing so much for me, I knew I could never repay him.
