Unexpected love | Lewis Hamilton

F I F T Y S I X

It was Christmas today and we were celebrating with Lewis family today and tomorrow with my family, just so we could celebrate with both sides of our families with Ari.

I was getting my earrings & other jewelry on while Lewis was trying to dress Ari.

Lewis came in the bathroom and looked confused ' is this a cute dress for Ari?? ' he asked.

I laughed ' you know what, I'll get Ari dressed if you help me get my necklace and bracelets on '

He immediately went to help me ' you don't need to say less ' he laughed.

After I got my earrings on I handed him my necklace as he put it on and after he put it on he kissed my neck as I started to pick out the bracelets.

He smiled ' you look beautiful by the way '

' you don't look too bad yourself Lew ' I smiled as well.

We then went to Lewis' family's house and the minute we arrived his step mom welcomed us three with open arms, I hugged her as Lewis held Ari's hand and went inside to meet his mom, dad, brother, two sisters, his sisters husbands, his niece and nephew and his brother. I gave Lewis step mom a bouquet of flowers and then she welcomed me in while she went to the kitchen to put the bouquet in a vase.

As I came in I greeted his whole family before his niece Willow came running towards me and I laughed as I hugged her and put her up in the air.

' Hi my favourite girl! ' I laughed.

' I missed you Stacie! '

' I missed you too Willow ' I replied before Kaiden also came running.

I swung Kaiden in the air too before we all went in the living room just watching tv, talking and stuff before it was time for dinner and after dinner we were gonna open presents and Father Christmas or as they say in America Santa was gonna come to give presents to the kids and us as well.

At the dining table lewis mom sat besides me and Lewis sister Samantha while on the other side to me Lewis was sitting with Willow and Ari. Both those girls playing with each other.

Everything was going pretty smooth, when we were done with the food everyone moved back to the living room but I stayed back with Linda and Carmen to help with the dishes and clean the table.

' So is this the first Christmas you all are together? ' I asked.

Carmen turned to me ' yeah, the first time since the kids were young actually ' she smiled at me as Linda looked at us.

' well I am happy we all could celebrate it together this year, it's lovely having Carmen, Samantha, Nicola, Lewis and of course you and Ari with us ' Linda smiled.

I smiled at her a bit before I realised what she'd said ' Lewis wasn't with you and Antony on Christmas usually? ' I asked confused. Lewis loved his dad so why didn't he spend Christmas with his dad usually?

Linda looked over to Carmen for a second as Carmen nodded ' Well Lewis usually came the day after Christmas to have a small celebration with us but he was usually with his mom to keep her company as well I and Antony had each other but Carmen was a single mom and growing up it just became like that especially after Willow and Kaiden were born He wanted to spend Christmas there with them instead then '

I smiled, that was so sweet.

I kept helping a bit before I went out to check on Ari and Lewis but of course as always they were fine without me. Ari was such a daddy's girl so she loved being with her dad, even though she loved me lots you could see her dad was her favourite parent.

I didn't mind though. I found it sweet.

As carmen and Linda came back out we all sat there talking a bit before opening presents and the rest of the night was spent just keeping each other company.

26th December day after Christmas

We were at my family's house to celebrate Christmas number 2 with my whole family, well the whole family except my mother. I had talked to her on FaceTime yesterday though so it was fine. She would come visit some other time. All my siblings were here. Even Evelyn, shocking seeing how she seemed to be so busy with her model friends nowadays.

Mateo was there as usual, he chose family over everything which was sweet. I used to do that before I realised this family wouldn't do that to me, especially not seeing how broken my relationship with my dad was. Although sometimes I felt bad for not being around so much anymore, especially seeing how my half sisters seemed to miss me lots. Geri which was my step mom kept sending me videos of them giving me video greetings or videos of their shows or something that I missed. It wasn't their fault in the end that me, Mateo and Evelyn weren't so close with our dad anymore.

We ate some dinner and I played some with my new Niece, yes thats right. I'd became an aunt for the first time. Shocking even for me. But I loved my new niece and my future sister in law Bella. She was honestly the sweetest girl Mateo had ever dated, she was so down to earth and you could clearly see she loved Mateo for Mateo and not anything else. And yes I was happy for them. I was especially happy for Mateo, he deserved to be happy with his new little family who would hopefully grow as he became older. Seeing as how Mateo always wanted a big happy family, I did too when I was younger. Maybe that had something to do with how we were abandoned by both our parents as we were younger, we were basically raised by nannies at our dads as Geri was in the peak of her carrier and so was dad. And mom? well she was just way too busy in Portugal with being a model and traveling the world. So I think we both learned as we grew that if we wanted that big perfect family we wanted we had to get it ourselves. Well I wouldn't get that seeing as how I would have to kids with a man I wouldn't spend the rest of my life with but Mateo still had the chance. So I was happy for him.

I sat down next to Bella and on my other side Lewis sat down with Ari and we all enjoyed a dinner that was relatively calm and actually good for once.

I played some with Lewis hand as we were done and waiting for the others to be done at the table and after dinner we just opened presents and after a while we went home again. Now we were gonna just calm down for a while. if anyone would let us.

When we got home Stacie went to bed the second she stepped foot inside the house. I on the other hand watched some tv downstairs in the living room before making my way up when I found a box I accidentally tripped over and then I saw some ultrasounds inside. I thought at first that it was from her pregnancy with Ari but when I looked closer it was after Ari. I found it weird but then I went to look and I found an usb that I couldn't help but plug into my computer.

As id watched it all I regretted it instantly.

She had miscarried. And I hadn't even known she was pregnant in the first place. That's why she'd been in such a bad state before disappearing.

Fuck.

I went up to our room where she was sleeping so peacefully and I sat down next to her with a bit of tears in my eyes and stroked her hair. I kissed her forehead and whispered ' Im sorry I wasn't there, I will never let it happen again '

I went to my bedside and cuddled next to her. She would never have to go through that ever again. Not as long as I walked on this earth.

I promise.
