This has not been edited completely.Charles' point of view
I glance at my phone, noticing a text from Alex. I swipe open the notification, then freeze.Alex
I'm at the hospital.
Give me the fucking
room number.I cut Elliott off, while he was mid sentence, reciting an old race from last season, "Sorry E, I have to go."
Elliott's smile fades away quickly, it being replaced by a sad frown, "oh okay, bye Charles!"
I nod at him, quickly leave the room, then walk into the elevator, praying Alex isn't downstairs.
__________________________
I exit the elevator, then see her. When Alex's eyes meet mine, her's are full of rage, "Charles, you have some explaining to do," she yells at me.
People turn their heads at us, while Alex continues to scream at me. I nod my head, then whisper, "Can we just take this outside?"
Her mouth drops, "Are you fucking serious," she pushes me, but due to her strength, I don't move.
"Alex, I will not say it again, we are taking this outside."
She scoffs as we walk outside. I lead her to my car, opening the door for her. I get in on the other side, now sitting in the driver's seat.
She crosses her arms, "So, are you going to act like a fucking grown up, and tell me what happened? Are you going to tell me why you haven't been answering any of my calls, text, fucking anything? Hmm, Charles," She angrily asks me.
"Look, Alex, I have barely been on my phone. I have a friend, their son is in the hospital, and he's a fan of mine. So, I went to go surprise him, trying to make him feel better."
She rolls her eyes, "Sure, Charles," She says, her voice full of sarcasm.
"Alex, You're my fucking girlfriend, you're supposed to support me. At least Fucking act like you care," I raise my voice at her, while starting the car.
She goes quiet, "I'm sorry Charles, I thought you were cheating on me."
I pull out of the parking garage, "Don't fucking assume this shit."
She nods her head, then pulls out her phone, posting something on her instagram account.
"Where do you want me to drop you off," I ask her, trying to remain calm.
She looks at me, "What?"
I look at her, "Where do you want me to drop her off," I then say slowly.
She rolls her eyes, "Of course, it's always the same thing with you."
I sigh, "Tell me where you want me to drop you off, I have to go to HQ."
She types something on her phone, "Well, what if I want to go with you?"
I laugh at her, "Please, you hate going to races, let alone HQ."
I plug my phone in, it automatically starts to play some music. Alex tells me to just drop her off at her apartment, so I type her address into my maps.
A notification pops up on the screen of my car, it's from Sebastian.
Seb
Is today the day?Alex looks at the notification, "what does he mean, 'is today the day?'"
I ignore her, not wanting to tell her it's about Lana.
She pushes my Elbow, "Charles, answer me!!" I turn my head to face her, since we were now parked in the parking garage to her flat, "it's not something you need to know, so stay out of it."
She mumbles something rude underneath her breath, then exits the car, walking into the building.
I text Sebastian back, then call Carlos.
Carlos answers the call, "Hey Mate, are you coming to HQ today?"
"Yes, I'm on my way now, is Lina there?"
"Yes, uhm," he pauses, "Is someone coming with you?"
"Oh no, it's just me."
"Oh okay, Lina told me she would love to see Lana again."
I sigh, "I'm sure she will."
I can practically see Carlos' confused face, "Does Lana not like Lina?"
"Oh no! I'm sorry, Alex is spamming my phone, I'm sure Lana loved her. I mean, who doesn't like Katalina?"
Carlos chuckles, "uhm, have you seen her when she gets angry?"
I laugh at his comment, "Well I just pulled up, I'll see you soon."
"Okay, see you soon."
________________________________
As I walk into the Ferrari hospitality room at HQ, I am greeted with Lina watching Carlos on the TV.
"Oh Charles," she kisses both of my cheeks, as I do the same to her.
"Lovely to see you Lina," I say back to her, giving her a smile.
She pulls out her phone, showing me a familiar woman's instagram, "Is this Lana? I can't tell, and I don't want to follow some stranger."
I take a look at the instagram, "Yes, that's her. If you look through, you should find some photos of her son, Elliott."
She nods her head, "Oh yes, the blonde boy was very cute and kind, She raised him well."
I nod my head, the break the silence, "So, what are your plans, any new shoots you are doing?"
She shakes her head, "Right now, I have a top secret project, so that's what i'm working on. We're close to being finished, but there's still some work that needs to be done."
I give her a look, "So secret, huh? I'm on to you, Lina."
She laughs at me, "You will never expect what is coming."
