— Carlos POV —

I was so happy tonight, I had won the race and it felt like Ella was warming up to me again. All I wanted to do was go see her. But I couldn't do that, after tonight we were going to the next race location. It was going to be one race after the other. We were going out to celebrate my win, so i got ready to go out.

I arrived at the club, I was greeted by the boys with tequila bottles at the ready. That was my poisson, so I knew it was going to hurt in the morning. After some shots a group of girls joined us. They were talking a lot but I wasn't really paying much attention. They made several attempts to get closer to me and flirt. But I really didn't want them near me. I only wanted Ella, so I went outside to have some fresh air.

Once outside the need to hear her voice was even bigger, so I took a chance and decided to call her.

Hi Carlos, already back
from your party?

Hi love, no still at
the club. I just wanted to
hear your voice. I was being
smothered by a group of
girls. And all I could think
about was you.

Poor you, getting too much
attention. Happy to hear you too.
So not one single girl
of that group had your attention?

Ella when are you going to
realize that you already have
my heart. I will do whatever
I can to win you back.

Oh did I say that last part out loud?

Shit I might have had too many drinks.

Carlos I like the honesty

So does that means I still
have a chance to win you back?

Ella still there ?

Yes

Yes as in you are still there
or yes I still have a shot?

Yes on both your question silly

Are you cheering?

Woops I didn't think you
would here that.

Shouldn't you go back
to your party? You deserve it.

I would rather talk to you,
but you are right they will
probably be wondering
were I am. Bye my love,
talk to you tomorrow ?

Bye Carlos, I would
love that!

I went back inside with the biggest smile on my face. I couldn't be happier with the fact that Ella would give me a chance again. I was going to swoop her of her feed. 'What are you smiling about?' Lando said to me. 'I just had the best conversation with Ella, she said I still had a chance. So I'm going to win her back.' I said proudly. 'That's great muppet! You know I was think of inviting Lottie to the US race. We have to go there a bit sooner so we could make a trip off it. Maybe it's not a bad idea if you invite Ella. That way they can travel together. And it would be easier for you to win her over when she is actually with you. Instead off always talking to her over the phone.'

I was looking with amazement at my friend, 'Lando, that is a great idea! Should we call them together then? Maybe we also shouldn't wait to long so we have enough time to arrange everything.'
'Sure buddy, let's try to call them tomorrow? I'm maybe a little bit too drunk now to have a proper conversation with them.' Lando says, 'perfecto!' I go back to enjoying my party, I can't wait to ask her.
