Another Love

27 Evasion Plan Sunk

I woke up the next morning feeling like my head is about to explode and I couldn't even remember how I got back last night.

I looked at the nightstand to see that it was still 9 AM when the door to what I think is the bathroom opened and Charles came out in nothing but a towel wrapped around his waist.

I stared at him, then I realized that I wasn't in my room which made me sit up on the bed to scan my surroundings.

Charles groaned which made me look at him and he stalked towards me going straight for my lips, kissing me passionately.

He proceeded to lay me back down on the bed before his hands began to caress my bare skin which made me push him back and look down at myself realizing that I wasn't wearing anything.

Flashbacks from the night before then came flooding through my mind, of how I kissed him just as we entered his hotel room but he stopped me and tried to control himself but his self control snapped when he left me in his room to get me a cup of water only to come back and see me on his bed with nothing but sexy red lingerie, rubbing myself and moaning his name telling him I love him.

Embarrassment and self-loathing started to creep in when I realized what I had done.

I had seduced a man who was in a relationship and had slept with him.

I looked up at Charles who was already looking down at me. With tears in my eyes, I looked away.

"I'm sorry. Oh God. I'm so sorry. I'll make sure that Charlotte doesn't find out but if she did, I will own up to my actions and readily accept the consequences even if I have to resign from both my Ferrari position and my Shell job." I sobbed hard as I finished.

Charles: "Hey, mon amour, look at me. You did nothing wrong, Charlotte and I are not back together, she's just saying that because like you said yesterday, she wants the fame and glamour that come with dating me back because her fashion line is getting more and more neglected by the public. People say 'You know you truly love the person you're with when you don't try to change the person even if you don't agree with each other, but at the end of the day, you still talk to each other about anything.' Max told me he told you about the nature of my relationship with Charlotte and Alexandra and that Alex and I never became official because I met you. Do you know why? It's because I fancied you the first time I saw you, I was so attracted to you that I found myself gravitating towards you any chance I get. It was to a point where some of the boys and even Alex, herself, told me to be true to myself and accept that I was attracted to you. She said that I felt something more for you that I had never felt towards any other girl before you because she can see the difference in how I looked at her and how I look at you. I would've been the one to tell you about everything Max told you but you didn't respond to my texts, calls or dms,I tried going to you but whenever I was ready to tell you, either something gets in the way or I couldn't find you anywhere. I flew to Italy right after Carlos's home GP but I was told you weren't in Italy, I tried asking where you were but even Kika and Kelly told me they didn't know where you were. I'm sorry if I hurt you, mon amour. I love you, please believe me. Forgive me for hurting you and letting other people get in the way of what we had and making you doubt yourself and me because I couldn't be brave enough to tell you how I feel and how much I want you to stay with me until the very end."

He hugged me closely to his chest and run his fingers through my hair when I buried my face on his chest as I cried. After a while, I stopped crying and just basked in his comfort and the occasional kisses to my head, then, I looked up at him and said "I miss you" which made him smile.

"I missed you too il mio amore."

We were staring at each others' eyes when we felt the tension rise as he leans down to kiss me on the lips.

"Je t'aime tellement, mon amour." He whispered to my ears as he kept kissing from the back of my ear down to my shoulders. I moaned as he nipped and sucked my neck, leaving love bites before moving his head back smiling triumphantly.

I slightly pushed him while blushing and told him to get dressed before I got up to go take a shower when I looked in the mirror in the bathroom only to see that he put love bites on the parts of my neck that would be very visible even when I wore any shirt even the red Ferrari collared one.

"Ferrari's goddamn golden boy, seriously?!" I turned around, shaking my head before I sighed and took a quick shower before putting on the robe and going out to look for my dress last night only to see my luggage on the bed beside Charles.

I looked at Charles questioningly.

"Do I want to know how my luggage got here?"

"Kika took your room key card last night and told me that she would be dropping your luggage here before she and Pierre would head to the circuit." Cahrles said while chuckling.

"Damn good friend." I said rolling my eyes. "Just shoving you to the one she wanted to murder just weeks before when she saw you in a vulnerable state."

Charles stood up and came closer, putting his hands on my waist.

"I told her I love you and I would choose you over everything even racing if you ever made me choose and that's all she and Kelly needed to hear to come up with a plan of getting the 'F1 Paddock's Beloved Couple' back together. I love you, mon amour."

"I love you too." I replied as my eyes watered.

"Just wanted to let you know, the 4 people with us last night each took a photo of us and posted it on their stories." Charles said smiling sheepishly before he paused for a few seconds. "And I might have posted a photo of you in my car last night in my story on Instagram."

"You what?! Please tell me you did not." I said looking at him with wide eyes.

"I did mon amour and there is nothing you can do about it so you better start getting dressed now because we are walking the paddock together today and Mia is already threatening me that she will take you away from me if I do not appear in front of her in the next hour." He said and winked at me before walking out of the room to let me get dressed.

I stood there looking at the door before sighing because he's a stubborn man and everyone who knows him knows that so you just have to face what was to happen next.

I got dressed in a black cargo pants, white halter top and my pitch-dark air force 1 before applying concealer to the love bites that Charles was so proud of putting on my neck.
