She was a family friend of the Leclercs and had grown up with the brothers. They id everything together from every day activities to racing. There was a small part of her that always had a crush on one, but what happens when she sees another differe...
As the start of the season edged closer and closer, lola became more and more excited to get back on track. Looking at some old photos from f3 made her realise how far she had come. Looking even further back, she found an old karting photo on the podium. Her in P1, Arthur in P2. She can't remember the boy in P3. It made her smile to see how far her and Arthur had come. They had moved through the ranks together, always racing in the same leagues and series. Maybe not always on the same team, but always together.

She was flying out to Bahrain on the tuesday of race week, but had to head out to Italy to Prema a week before, to do her seat fit, film some content and train. It was the day before she would fly out to Italy, and she was just packing everything up. "knock knock" she heard from the doorway of her room she turned around to see arthur leaning against the doorframe. "how did you get in?" she said, placing a pair of pants in her suitcase "Louis let me in" "ahh ok" "need any help?" "your a legend" he came in and started folding the shirts that were lay in a pile on her head. "where charles?" she asked "he's out with a girl" she turned to face him, probably too quickly "a girl?" "yeah, jealous?" he smirked "what no of course not" "hmmm" she turned back to the pants and shorts that were lay next to her case so arthur couldn't see the red rising up to her cheeks "honestly i don't get this obsession you have with my brother lola" arthur spoke, keeping his eyes on her "i'm not obsessed with your brother arthur" she said turning to face him again "you seem to be. if you've got a crush on him just admit it" "leave it. i don't" he sighed "okay"
she turned back around and shuffled so she was sat against the wall. arthur got up from the bed and sat down next to her. she turned to face him as he was already facing her. "wanna do something fun before we leave?" he asked with a smirk on his face "what we're you thinking?" he grabbed her hand and dragged her up, running out of her room and down the stairs in into the back garden. He didn't stop moving and edged closer and closer to the pool. "arthur don't you dare!!!"
she tried to hold herself back but arthur was too strong and before she knew it, she was pulled into the pool, fully clothed. As she resurfaced, she saw arthur next to her treading water, laughing his head off. She splashed him. "i hate you" she said through laughter "ay ay ay it entertained you no? she rolled her eyes as she splashed him again "right that's it" he said moving closer and dunking her. She swam back up and out an arm around his shoulder to keep afloat. They had their faces close together laughing.
"lola are you- oh" they turned their heads to see charles had walked into the back garden "oh hey charles, i thought you were out" "yeah well i left to come see if you were free before you left but i see your occupied" he said walking off "no charles" she looked at arthur before quickly pulling herself out the pool and running to grab his arm. "let me get dry and we can go do something yeah?" he smiled at her "yeah ok" they both walked into the house as arthur got out the pool, looking longingly after his brother who had just walked in the house with lola. he sighed.
After she had got back from a walk with Charles, her parents were sat in the front room with her siblings, Arthur and Pascale. "ahhh there you are!" her mum said "we were thinking of going out for a big meal tonight before you all get super busy with your racing again" charles and lola looked at each other before looking back "yeah that's sound great!" she said "i think i'll pass" arthur said, standing up and walking out of the room "what's got his knickers in a twist" charles said lola carefully hit him on the arm before speaking "i'll go talk to him"
walking out into the hallway, she saw arthur sat half way up the stairs. She went and sat down next to him, their legs touching due to how close they were. "why don't you wanna come?" she asked he shrugged "come on arthur, speak to me" he looked at her "fine. what's your problem with me?" "i'm sorry what?" "well i come round to help you pack and then entertain you when your bored, but as soon as charles shows up it's like i don't even exist. i bet you didn't realise that you just left me in the pool on my own, fully clothed because charles wanted to go out. but of course you always do what charles wants. always have. and as soon as he wants to do something with you, i'm a second thought. so why should i come and eat. it won't make a difference if i'm there or not" he said angrily
looking back she felt bad. she had just left arthur on his own, not even bothering to look back. "arthur i'm so sorry. it was so shitty of me. but please come to this meal. i want you there more than anyone please. your my best friend" "that's the issue" "what?" "nothing" he looked at her with a small smile on his face as he placed his hand on her knee "i'll come yeah" "thankyou arthur" she said pulling him into a hug "promise me one thing" he said into her shoulder "anything" "don't fuck me off for my brother again" she slightly giggled but he knew he was serious "i promise arthur"
they pulled back and arthur kept looking into her eyes. he tucked her hair behind her ear. "you look really pretty today by the way" he said before standing up and walking down the stairs. she smiled before standing up and following him. ———————————————————————
