Curve of fate - Charles Leclerc X Male Reader [CURRENTLY EDITING]

Chapter 6

I wake up to the sound of people banging on my door, I quickly rise thinking it's an emergency but I open the door to Yuki and Pierre inviting me down to breakfast. I shoot them a heavily judgemental look for waking me up at whatever time it is. I slam the door in their faces and head back to my bed to check my phone and see that it's only 7:30 on Wednesday morning.

I spend about 20 minutes in bed just scrolling through emails and social and see that my training starts at 9:30 so I decided to drag myself away from the comfort of my bed and go and have a shower, get dressed, I try to find my sportswear as I will be in the gym for most of the day. After making myself look semi presentable I head down to the breakfast area where Oscar waves at me to join them at the table I quickly grab some orange juice and a fruit bowl before sitting down.

Everyone is chatting away and then Oscar sparks a conversation between us and says 'So did you get back alright last night?' he said with a sly smirk on  his face.

 'Yep fine' I responded whilst showing fruit into my mouth.

'Who walked you back?. he pressed on.

'Charles did' I said quite assertively, this soon caught the attention of Yuki, Pierre, Daniel and Max who all chime in giving each other looks like they know something I don't. I quickly dismiss the conversation and ask George what the team plan is for training. He informs me that we are in the Gym doing Physical and Reaction Training, these types of days are what make me regret being an F1 driver.

We spent the next half an hour at the breakfast table chatting away about random topics that popped up, I however remained in silence trying to gather what the looks were about earlier. Zhou comes over and starts talking to me which quickly pulls me away from my thoughts, he is also one of the people I have known for the longest. We met when I was in F3 and he was in another racing series, we had quickly become friends as we have a lot in common.

He asks if he can't talk to me in 'private' this of course makes me quite concerned and my initial thought is that something is wrong, however when we get to a free table he asks me point blank 'Are you in love with Charles?' I sit there in shock not at the question but at how straight to the point he is, I reply with 'Yes... I think I am, what makes you ask?'.

'Well M/N you never have been good at hiding your feelings and it's always the same story with you look at when you dated Mick or even Nyck, you started off hating them and ended up loving them', he says with a confident smile knowing he is completely right.

I sigh in anger with myself for being so predictable and we talk for a while about how I truly feel about Charles and he helps me realise that we should try and be friends first before developing into something more.

George calls me over to signal that we have to head to the gym and start training when we arrive it's is completely empty except both of our personal trainers who are waiting for us George's takes him over to the treadmill for endurance training where as my trainer makes me do reaction tests for a whole 2 hours and by then I have had enough we take a quick break during our break me and George talk despite being teammates we haven't had much time to talk.

'So how does it feel to be in F1 and have won your first ever Grand Prix?' He asks.

'Well Mr journalist it feels pretty cool and I have enjoyed every moment so far and can't wait for the next race' I respond and like every other conversation that I have the question of 'so what's going on between you and Charles?' pops up and I simply reply 'We got off on the wrong foot but we are making efforts to be friends'.
