Pit Stops (Book I-F1 Series)

Chapter Forty

Its been a week since Bahrain. Its been a week since I've seen Mick, since i saw that bloody text in his phone, and its been a week since ive cried myself to sleep everyday. A week of phone calls from him that i answer every one yet it feels not right anymore.

And its been a week since I've admitted to myself that i love Charles, its been a week since I last saw him.

"Bonana, come on dear, go out and lets eat." Francesca called out as i rolled out of the bed. Its been a week too since I've been here in Monaco, all ive ever done was swim im the pool, drive around Monaco, eat, sleep and work for a bit.

"I'll be out in a bit. You two can eat first." I answered as i sat up from my bed. Still sleepy and groggy.

"Anne, its already night time. Antonio and I will head out in a few. Come on Anne, you haven't eaten yet today." Francesca said as i looked at the time on my phone, it is indeed 8PM.

I just sighed as i went out of my room and saw Francesca standing in front of my door. I smiled as she took my hand and pulled me to the kitchen upstairs.

"Eat, and we'll go. By the way Bonana, Charles called the house phone, asking for you. He left their number, its on the note. Love you Bonana." Francesca said as i thanked her for everything before going out of the house with Antonio.

Now the house is so quiet, and i dont like it. I tried eating to drown out the deafening silence but i cant. I cleaned the kitchen as soon as I lost my appetite and went to the living area downstairs where the phone is and looked for the note.

I smiled as i saw their house number and i dialled it on the phone. After a few rings someone answered.

"Bud?" I smiled as i heard Charles' voice on the phone.

"Looks like you've been expecting me to call?" I chuckled as he did too.

"Your number is the only number i know, well, good thing i asked Francesca for your number when i went there." He laughs as I heard my stomach grumbled.

"You're in Monaco, right?" I asked as he hummed.

"Yeah, just this afternoon, I'll go back to Maranello tomorrow afternoon." He answered as i smiled. "You want to come over?" He asked as my eyes widened. Shocked because i was gonna say that.

"Can you come here? The silence is deafening here." I said as fiddled with the note with his number.

"Are you okay? You've been so awfully quiet this past week Bud." He said as i smiled. He really knows me.

"I'll tell you if you'll come here." I chuckled, unsure if he's really going here because we haven't even talked for a week.

Actually this is the longest time we've had without talking, and I've been feeling so guilty about not talking to him and sad because i am so used to his voice.

"I'll bring pasta, i cooked a bit too much tonight." I smiled, he knows i love pasta, actually we both love pasta.

"Sure, can you buy some ice cream too?" I asked, surprise that I suddenly got my appetite back.

"Of course. Vanille?" He laughs..

"Oh come on Charles we are basically the same person. Go get me some. I'll text you the code of the gate because I'll just take a bath." I said as he said he'll go now before we both hung up the phone.

I took the longest bath i ever had in my life, because of these overwhelming feelings. How do i even tell Charles that Mick is unfaithful? He'll obviously be mad at him, even its for a good reason. How can i even act around him if i ignored him, almost everyday for the past month.
