AutumnDR3 II Daniel Riccardo

Chapter Seventeen:

I pull away from the kiss, the blush on my cheeks burning. I turn my head back to the sunset. 

"Wow" I hear Daniel say and It sends me laughing. 

"Why are you laughing?" he says joining me with a confused laugh. 

"Out of all the things I would have expected you to say. That was not in the cards" I say.

"At least it wasn't I wonder what Lando's up to" He says and his eye's immediately go wide. 

"You've read the fanfictions!?" I scream putting my hands over my face. 

"I have. And I'm not ashamed to admit that to you because your a talented writer Autumn. Also they were interesting. I might have disliked one, but I loved all the others. "

"Which one didn't you like?" I question.

"Face Down"

"Yeah that's my least favorite of them all. I had just been broken up with and wrote you as though you were him. I'm sorry"

"Hey don't be sorry, He sounds like he was a dick. And you deserved better than him"

"I know. And I have" I say turning back and looking at him.

"Stop being so cute" He says blushing. 

I smile at him before turning back.

"I have as well. And I'm glad it's you"

"Now look who's being cute"

We both laugh. 

"You know Lando told me about the book?"

"Lando's also read them?"

"Yes"

"Ugh. Wait- please don't tell me your DannysHoe" 

"Okay, I won't"

"Fuck, D was correct."

Daniel laughs and lies down. I soon follow. 

"Tell me about yourself Autumn. We've got to get to know each other. We are on a date after all."

"Well, I'm a girl who has a million dreams she wants to achieve"

"What dreams?"

"Well I've always dreamed of opening my own Bakery chain, or taking mom's bakery international. But I want there to be a bookshop in it. One filled with my books. And I want to eventually have a family. Two kids, one boy one girl. Maybe a third. I want to teach them to bake just like my mother did with me every Sunday.  And I've always wanted to move out of my small hometown. And watch Grand Prixes live. Which I have achieved now. And I want to be happy, with my life, more than I am now"

"Where do you want to move?'

"I don't know. Maybe somewhere in Europe. Although Australia seems super fun."

"Trying to get brownie points now are we?"

"Possibly"

"You don't need them love "He says putting an Arm around me. I snuggle in closer to him. 

"It's strange to think that we've only known each for like three days. It feels as though it's been a lifetime" He says.

"It's just the happiness of our story." I tell him.

"One I'll forever be grateful for" He says and kisses my temple.
