My new life.

Capter VII

The next morning rolls around my alarm goes off I get up do my morning routine then head out the door to my car and go to Uni, as I'm walking to class I finally actually look at my phone to see messages from Charles.

Charles:
Good morning! Hope you slept well. Text me when you can.

Me:
Hey, what's up?

Charles:
Not much about to get on my flight.

Me:
Oh yeah, where is the next race anyways?

Charles:
Spain, you going to watch?

Me:
Hmmm...I don't know maybe.

Charles:
You so will 😂

Me:
Yeah probably it had became my new favourite sport.  

Charles:
Yay! What was it before f1?

Me:
Tennis, I still love tennis and I so want to go to a live tennis game, it's my wish.

Charles:
I'll take you!

Me:
Charles we spoke about this.

Charles:
As friends.

Me:
Okay then yes, anyways I've gotta go class is about to start, goodbye.

Charles:
Class?

I don't get the chance to even reply to him because the teacher comes in and the class starts. 5 hours later class if finally finishes and I don't even get to go home and rest I now have work, I get to my car and drive there when I get there I'm lucky to have 10 minutes before my shifts starts so I go out back on my phone remembering I have messages from Charles.

Charles:
Class?
Charles:
For the love of god tell me you're at least over 20 😂

Me:
Yes Charles I'm over 20 I'm 23 😂

Charles:
Haha good, so what was class for them?

Me:
Uni.

Charles:
Oh cool! What you doing?

Me:
Basically a teaching course, I wanna be a teacher.

Charles:
That's super cool! What you up to?

Me:
About to start my shift at work. Bye!

Charles:
Uh okay, bye.

I put my phone away and go start my shift, it was looking busy right now so I get stuck into it. The rush literally never ends Emily and I were running around like chickens without heads. When the night finally ends Emily does all the cash work and I start cleaning up, when Emily is done  she helps me clean up it takes a bit over an hour, we get our stuff and go to our cars before we leave we have a conversation, "So what did you think of the F1?" "I enjoyed, it's up there with tennis now!" She laughs and I join, "Good! We will have a watch party this weekend for the Spanish GP." She says like I don't have a choice but I don't mind, "Of course!" She looks at me a little suspiciously before asking, "So what's going on with a certain Monegasque Ferrari driver?" I laugh at her, "Nothing!" "Mmm sure, now tell me the truth." "Literally nothing." "I saw him try to kiss you, and you pulled away." The memory of that comes rushing into my mind, "Okay fine, we are friends. I told him I don't want a relationship right now and he accepted that, so we are friends." She looks at me a little worried like she remembered something, "Kai?" I freeze when I hear his name she obviously notices, "Hey it's okay, if you don't want to talk then we don't." I just nod not being able to get the words out, "Anyways time to head its late and I know you have school in the morning. So goodnight." She's says as she about to get into her car, "goodnight" and we both drive off home. When I get home I make a small dinner and put on a tv show. While then thinking about my past and I just crying I really thought that part of my life was over but it obviously isn't, my phone vibrates so I grab it and see Charles' message.

Charles:
You finish?

Me:
Yeah.

He doesn't reply but then his name pops up on my screen, he's FaceTime me and I'm still crying I can't answer I look like shit. The phone keeps ringing, so I quickly wipe my face and answer the FaceTime. He's smile pops up on my screen and I can't help but smile before he notices that I've been crying.

Charles:
'You're crying, what's wrong?'

Me:
'Nothing it's fine.'

Charles:
'If it made you cry it's not fine, so what's wrong?'

I can't tell him about Kai, I honestly couldn't relive the memories of him and the things he use to do.

Me:
'Honestly I'm okay.'

Charles:
'I honestly don't believe you, but if you're not ready to talk about it that's okay, just know I'm here for you.'

Me:
'Thank you Char'

Charles:
'Char? That's new'

Me:
'I'm sorry it just slipped out'

Charles:
'No it's okay, I like it!' He laughs,

I smile, I could definitely see myself falling for him but I just can't yet.

Me:
'Anyways, I got uni tomorrow morning so I've gotta get to sleep, and I'm sure you have a busy day tomorrow so you do too, good night.'

Charles:
'I do yes, good night.'

He smiles at me one more time before I hang up, I go do my night routine out my alarm on and head to bed, for the first time in years I fall asleep with a smile on my face I couldn't be happier my life is finally turning around.
