Pit Stops (Book I-F1 Series)

Chapter Nineteen

I woke up feeling better than last night, my eyes widened as i felt that I'm sleeping on someone's arm, but i let out a sigh of relief knowing that its Mick. I tried to move but his other arm is draped on my waist.

I turned around making Mick groaned, as he opened his eyes and saw me, he smiled and pulled me closer to his chest. I smiled as i can hear his heartbeat beating against my ear. I felt this fuzzy and giddy feeling inside me as our clothes are the only ones between us.

But I remembered that he still needs to practice for his race this weekend, and he has to be there. I don't want to pull him away from that opportunity.

"You still have practice. Get up." I mumbled on his chest as he groaned before saying five more minutes. "Come on. I'll come with you." He just sighed as he let me go and i sat up.

"I was enjoying the moment, but practice with you is much better." He said as he sat up beside me.

As much as i want to lay down here and be in his arms, i cant because this is important to him and to the people around him. He belongs here and i dont want to be in-between him and the things he love. I smiled as he stood up from the bed and headed to the door.

He went out to get ready and i did too in my room. I doubled up my thermal overalls cuz i know it'll be very cold causing it to be very tight against my body.

For the first time in two years i will miss a day in wearing my bangle bracelets from Charles as I slipped on my racing suit halfway and gasped as i squeezed my butt just to fit it on. Good thing its kind of stretchy.

I looked at the size and its still my size when i was driving, and I sighed, I've gained a bit since i stopped driving but i do exercise a lot but still I'm not as slim as i was before.

I just sighed as i looked at the mirror, if im still 17, i would've call myself fat because now i have wider hips, chest a little bit bustier and my bum is a bit plumper that before. All i ever did before was study, exercise and race. Now i eat, like a lot, it made me happier though and thats why i like it.

I slipped on the shoes that Corinna gave me and im done. I looked one last time before I went out of my room with my coat. Mick is already ready in the living room with both of his helmet and mine in front of him on the table.

"Woah." Mick said as he looked at me up and down. "You still look breathtaking in your overalls."

"Well a size bigger would've been better but this will do. I look like I could blend in the snow with this white overalls." I mumbled as slipped on my coat and gloves. Mick stood up and smiled as he walked towards me.

"Its because you always look better in white." I just stood there in front of him, trying to decipher what he meant with that. "You will always be perfect." He said as he kissed me on the top of my head. "Come on."

He grabbed our helmets as i grabbed our balaclava and some things that are needed for his practice.

We walked to the building where the cars are stored and saw Jacque working on Mick's car.

"Good morning brother." I greeted as i stood beside him, startling him. I laughed as Mick placed our helmets on the table as i looked at my brother and Mick discussing about the race and what are the do's and don'ts.

I sat on the chair as I pulled out my phone from my pocket and took a silly selfie with my tongue out. I sent it to Marck 'practicing so that i can beat you soon. :P'

I smiled as I put it near Jacques phone. And went beside them. As soon as i slipped between Mick and my brother, Mick's hand went to my waist, i just smiled at him and he did the same to me.
