Unexpected love | Carlos Sainz Jr.

Chapter 26

— Ella POV —

This weekend has been going great, I feel like I can really let Carlos in. He had made a great effort this weekend and we just talked about anything we could think of. I'm sad that it's already Sunday, so it means Carlos is leaving tomorrow. We are cuddling on the couch, so I snuggle a little closer and grab him a little tighter. 'What's on your mind?' Carlos asks. Do I tell him what I really feel? Carlos had been the best this weekend, so I think I can show him my feelings in return.

'It's just that I will miss you when you leave tomorrow. I would just like to stay like this forever. Here with you in our bubble. I was really scared for this weekend, but I had the most fun in ages.' I'm really scared how he will react to my confession.
Carlos chuckles, 'I'm glad to hear you liked this weekend. To be honest I don't feel like going home, and that's a first. I'm glad we got to spend the weekend together.'

Carlos doesn't look too happy, clearly something is on this mind. So i shift on the couch so we are face to face. 'Babe, what's on your mind, you look sad?'
'Ella, I just had a call with Ferrari, they want me to do some promo next weekend. So I won't be able to come back here. I'm so sorry.' I see the defeat in his eyes. 'So where would you have to do this promo then ?' I ask, thinking about what I could do to visit Carlos, I don't want all the effort to come from him.

He looks at me questionably, 'Euhm it would just be at my house, so in Spain. Why?' I am nervous for his reaction all of sudden. 'Well I was thinking I could take some days of and come visit you. Make a citytrip out of it.' I see Carlos eyes widen with excitement, 'Ella would you really do that for me? I would love it if you come visit me. I can show you around and take you to all my favourite spots.' He was glowing.

'Okay, that's settled then, I'm arranging it with work first thing on Monday.' I was determined to do my best to let Carlos in. He really was nothing like Derek. We went to bed and the next day we said our goodbyes. For a brief periode, since I was going to fly to Spain for the next weekend.
I drove to work and checked my agenda when I could take some time off. I also checked for available flights.

Before I knew it Wednesday had arrived and I was getting ready to leave for the airport. I couldn't wait to see Carlos again. He was picking me up from the airport. I had never been so nervous before, in a short period of time, Carlos was able to restore my trust in men again. I just felt so save with him.
When the plane lands, I'm already shooting him a text saying I'm almost there.

I arrive in the lobby and I'm trying to spot Carlos in the crowd. I see him leaning against the wall, cap on his head to try and blend in. I walk, run, over to him, 'Hi babe' I make sure to not show too much affection. If he is trying to blend in, then I don't want to ruin it. 'Hi mi cielo, you look beautiful as always. I really want to kiss you, but I don't want to do anything you're not comfortable with. If someone sees us, then we are out of our little bubble.' Carlos says.

'I would love to kiss you as well, don't really care about anything else.' I say shyly. That's all Carlos needs to bring our lips together and give me the most passionate and loving kiss ever.

If I had known what the consequences would have been, I would have never said this. Unfortunately we couldn't take back what was done.
