"And then one day we meet a person. Without even wanting it, she becomes our best story".
The story of when I met my idol, and how I went from fan to soul mate.
*This story is fiction, even if it is based on real people it is not reality*
...
This holiday in paradise is coming to an end. It was truly magical to be alone with Charles. It reconnected us and did us a lot of good. Now it's time to come back to reality and focus on the Formula 1 season.
The next grand prix is in Budapest. I can't wait to go there and especially to explore the city with my girlfriends. This time, Léa my uni friend will come with me. I'll be able to show her my world, or at least my new world since I've been with Charles.
***
We leave by private jet from Nice to Budapest. Léa is really excited to make this trip, and so am I. Charles is already very concentrated in his work. He has to look at some data before arriving there in order to be ready for his appointment with his team.
After a few hours of flight we arrive at our destination. We will first put our things at the hotel before leaving Léa and me in the city. It's only Thursday, so there's really no point in going to the circuit today. We will go there tomorrow for the tests. But for now it's a day of discovery and shopping that awaits us.
I obviously post a story to immortalize our first trip together.

In the evening we decide to eat at the restaurant of our hotel. Charles offered the other drivers to come, but only Pierre, Lando and Luisa who also came to support her friend for the grand prix.
The restaurant is quite chic, so we put on a fairly classy outfit, Léa and I. She opts for a little black dress, and for my part black trousers with pliers with a nice top.
We go down to the hotel lobby to join Charles and Pierre who are going for a drink before the meal.
Emma: Hello boys, how are you?
Pierre looks up to answer me, but his eyes remain fixed on Léa.
Pierre: Now it's going very well.
Léa laughs nervously and blushes. To cut off this somewhat awkward moment, I sit down next to Pierre and tell him to come face to face. The fact that he likes her doesn't bother me, but we are the four of us and I'm not ready to hear them flirt and be the third wheel of the carriage. Charles looks at me oddly seeing that I'm not sitting next to him, but finally understands when he sees my nods.
Charles: Good for your organization girls I put your passes in our room. And for tomorrow, the first tests are at 1 p.m. and the second at 4 p.m. So you can either come for 1 p.m. or come before and eat with the other drivers and me before we do our tests. Pierre: I advise you to come and eat at the circuit. There is good company there.
Definitely this Pierre is really a flirt.
Emma: Okay, we'll discuss it with Léa. Léa: If it's okay with you, I would like to eat there. Emma: Okay if you want, that's fine with me.
We finish our drinks and head to the restaurant. Pierre goes next to Léa and accompanies her. As soon as we get to the table he pulls out her chair and sits down next to her. A real gentleman. Shortly after Luisa and Lando join us.
We take advantage of our evening without being too late as tomorrow the boys have to drive.

With Léa we leave directly from the circuit. At the entrance Charles is waiting for us to go with us to the "canteen".
Léa has been taking pictures of absolutely everything since we set foot here. She therefore takes the opportunity to put a story of Charles and me, which I decide to repost because I like the photo.

When we finally arrive at the "canteen" we greet everyone before going to get a plate and sitting down with them. Léa finds herself next to Pierre again. This time I let them talk to each other freely and I talk on my side to all my pilot friends.
The meal passes quickly enough, the boys have to leave to prepare for their tests. We stay all the girls together, so Léa, Luisa, Lily, Isa and me. We have a little coffee before leaving to take pictures for our instagrams. We take advantage of being several to make pretty ones. And that way it keeps us busy while waiting for the start of the tests.
***
We go to the pits of Charles to see these famous tests. They pass pretty quickly. Charles finished 1st, behind him there's Carlos and Pierre who moved into 3rd place, a very good position for him.
The boys will do their interview before joining us for a drink before leaving for the second session. Charles and Pierre arrive towards us, I notice that Pierre has intentionally opened his combination which he leaves trailing behind him. He knows very well what he's doing, when Charles does that I can't resist him.

Pierre: Léa you will have to come and see me at all my grand prix. It's only the practice but I've had crazy laps, it looks like you're my lucky charm.
I walk away a bit to talk with Charles and ask him how he feels in the car. After all, they made some modifications to the car over the summer. But all is well and he finds that the car is even better to drive.
Charles: Good Pierre, it's time to go back. Pierre: Yeah I'm coming. Emma: Good luck my love, smash everything! I want to see you doing fastest laps! Charles: I'll try mon amour.
He kisses me before leaving, followed by Pierre. We return to Charles' pits to see the second tries before heading back to the hotel and eating again at our hotel with Pierre.
Even if it's going pretty quickly between Léa and Pierre, I can't wait to see where it's going to go. But I think I'll have to talk to him tomorrow to make sure he's really interested in her and not just looking for someone to get over his breakup with Katerina and dump her right after.
