XXXIII. Track Walk

MONACO: July 2005

Charles stood in front of the reporter with his helmet in his arms. He had just won the race and has been answering some questions already. He was asked about giving advice to his parents when it comes to driving and he gave quite a good advice.

"You won today, any big celebrations planned?" the interviewer asked. Charles smiled and shook his head, "Nothing. Probably go home and hang out with my best friend." He answered happily.

The interviewer let out a chuckle, "So, some time with Pierre." But the young driver shook his head, "Not Pierre, but of course." They shared a laugh but the interviewer decided on asking one more question.

"Will your victory today bring you closer to your dreams in the future?" Charles pursed his lips thinking, he then smiled brightly at the man, "The dream of racing, yes. But for my other dream, not yet." He answered.

The eyebrows of the interviewer furrowed, "And that dream is?" The camera caught the big and excited smile of the young driver, "To marry my best friend who is not Pierre." He answered honestly.

He was about to be asked again but then they heard a gasp, they turned to see young Pierre with his jaw dropped, "You want to marry Thalie?" he asked. Charles being the polite boy he is said thank you to the interviewer and walked away and towards his best friend.

"Can you be quiet. And yes, I do." He admitted. Pierre's eyes widened, "Oh, Kiki is going to love this, she's going to rub it in my face-" Before the French could say anything, Charles placed his hand on his mouth.

"Let's keep this between us for now, shall we?"

Pierre nodded and crossed his heart with his index finger. Charles sighed but pulled his hand off his mouth, "But honestly, when you get to that point, I'll either laugh or yell at you." He admitted.

The young Monegasque racer just rolled his eyes, "Anyway, let's go. Thalie may already be with Ki." And with that the best friends were off to find the girls.
