They went to check on him and I stayed home. I didn't want to know anything about him, not because I was still mad but because part of it felt like my fault. Charles ended up telling me that he was in a coma and they didn't know when he would wake awake. When I received that information my heart dropped and I felt sick to my stomach.
__________________________________
Days and weeks passed, and going to work and coming back felt so draining. I felt uncomfortable with myself. Knowing I was the reason. Charles tried to make me forget about it every chance he got, sometimes it would work, sometimes it wouldn't. At this point work started feeling more like a job than what it used to feel like, I used to love it but now I can barely get through the day.I needed closure and told Charles I was going to the hospital. I went in and told them I was his friend, I walked in and sat next to him. " I am so sorry Lando, I feel so bad about making you leave in a hurry because you had to put a pause in driving. Please wake up" I looked up and his mom was standing there, "Stella, you came" She put the coffee down and hugged me, "I'm so sorry for this" She sat next to me and looked at me, "it's not your fault, it was that drivers fault Stella" I cried on her shoulder the entire time. Someone was standing behind me, "sorry to interrupt I just wanted to see him" It was Jasmine.
I looked at Lando's mom and she was staring, "Yeah, he's right there. Who are you again?" She asked her and told him they were talking, "Anyway, Stella you're almost due. Three months? Are you ready" I nodded and lay on her while watching Lando. We both just sat there in silence looking at Lando and talking about him. "When he met you, the first thing he said was, I found my best friend. I knew then that you must've made a good impression because he's hard to impress" I laughed and held her tighter, "he's going to wake up, he's strong" This moment is engraved in my head. She wasn't blaming me, she was actually helping me feel better, her not accusing me of anything gave me a bit of comfort.

I walked out of the hospital and he was right there standing outside the hospital for me, he hugged me and kissed my forehead, "Proud of you, let's go home" Charles said, he opened the door and we left home.The whole car ride I was looking out the window and thinking about Lando. When we got home I sat on the couch spacing out. " you didn't want to see him like that did you" he said, I didn't say anything just kept on spacing out. He hugs me and I become a sobbing mess again, "even when everyone is telling me it's not my fault, I feel like it is" he turns his full body to me, "Just because you didn't want to see him at the moment and made him leave doesn't mean it's your fault" I look down and he looks at me, "I'm going to bed, let's go Stella" I walked up to our room and lay there just waiting for him, "bought this home and it feels empty, I want to go home," he gets in and I hug him. "what happened in the hospital Stella" I look at him, "what are you talking about?' he sighed and looked down at me, "nothing nevermind" I turn away from him, "I'm sleeping in Penelope's room", I have no idea what he was accusing me of but I didn't want to deal with it today.

it's now February and I was in my birth month, Lando still hasn't woken up. It's worrying us. but today I get signed into the hospital to deliver my child. I walked into the hospital and Charles was carrying everything, "I am not leaving you to do everything on your own stell" he gave me a kiss, I put my head on his shoulder, "Before you go into labor you should go see Lando" I look at him because we haven't mentioned his name since the incident, it started a whole argument but then confessed he was jealous that I went to go visit him.
Charles ended up apologizing because he knew he was in the wrong. He knew that I was worried about him because I thought this was all my fault, I walked into the room, and his mom left, I just watched him like he would magically wake up. "I know you can hear me but I hope I never lose you, I hope it never ends because I will never be able to walk those streets again knowing this is my fault. You were like my best friend that I always needed, I didn't realize it until after all of this, I'm having my baby today, it's a boy. Please wake up Lando you were supposed to be here Lando" I cried and turned away, I couldn't be there anymore so I walked into my room.
I slept for a while and did what I had to do, deliver a baby. the process has been so painful, but it was time because he wanted to come out. "you have to push Stella" I looked up at Charles and felt like screaming, 'I AM CHARLES' and I push. he was out. I relax and lay back, they hand me my baby and I look at him with the biggest smile.
They took him for a check-up and made sure everything was okay with him. I was talking with everyone until my brother came running into the room, "LANDO WOKE UP" I looked up and smiled. Charles looked at me and laughed and kissed me, "You must've been praying so hard for them both" I looked up and asked them to disconnect me, "Stella you just gave birth" I looked up at my mom and at the moment I didn't care I just wanted to see him, "get me up Charles" that's exactly what he does. I put my my shoes and I ran to his room.
"Lando" he looks up at me and I see his beautiful eyes, those eyes that had me drawn to him. I ran up to him and hugged him, "I am so sorry Lando, I didn't mean for any of this to happen, I never wanted this to happen. I didn't want you to get hurt" he smiled at me and I was wondering what was going through his head. " I heard you the whole time, every time you would talk to me, Stella what are you doing? You just gave birth" I laugh and hug him again, "I hope I never lose you again" I never wanted to leave, I was so grateful for this moment.
"you never did, I was always here" I let go of him and talked to him for a while and saw a nurse, "Stella, I know he's your best friend but come on you just gave birth. If you come with me you can come back in two hours" the excitement on my face was seen by everyone and I told him I would be right back.
I was sitting in my room, and Charles sat on the side and brought me my baby. "Now you can show Lando, I wanted to tell you that you have gone to work even when the pain gets to you. Well, I'll just let Toto, Zak, and Christian explain"
I saw them walk in and they were the happiest when they saw the baby. Especially Toto. They all took turns carrying our baby, "what's his name" I looked over and Charles, and he looked at me clueless, " Jules Emilian Leclerc" he laughed and turned to the wall. We noticed that he was crying, he walked up to me and wrapped his arms around me while sobbing. "I love you so much, and so is Max when he hears you gave him his middle name" he sits next to me and I rest my head on his.
"so you've worked every day while pregnant although you could've been on pregnancy rest, you weren't. You dealt with it and been through it all. We wanted to ask that since we know you'll have to stay home at this time; Lando isn't going back to racing until Singapore, so until September. Would you like to stay with him and help him regain his strength back," I looked a bit confused because I had to take care of two people now, I wanted to say yes so bad. I then saw Elliot and Abby walk through the door, "don't worry we'll help you and stay with you for those 7 months" I smiled knowing I indeed was getting the help I was craving for, "then yes, I will indeed help him" zak hugged me and thanked me. A part of me was shocked that Lando wouldn't race but understood that he had to recover.
__________________________________Max.Verstappen: Jules Emilian Leclerc, when I first heard my sister was pregnant I completely lost it. Not because I was mad, but because I still considered her a child. I see her as the little sister I once grew up with when she told me the news, I was also happy for her because I knew she was going to be an amazing mother. She is a loving and kind-hearted person, she treats Penelope like her own. Now you finally have your baby and we will love him the way you love us.
*Comments off*
I was ready to leave, and so was Lando. We both left together. He hadn't seen the baby yet, so he walked into the car and sat in the front. "Oh my gif I completely forgot he was there" he reopened the door and walked to the back, he was just looking at Jules and staring. "He's beautiful" he smiles and looks at me.———-
