I hope it's you - Charles leclerc

Part 5

After a couple hours of drinking and dancing, most of the people had left, leaving just around 20 people remaining.

People were mostly talking, too tired and too drunk to dance. I had mostly been talking to Arthur and he introduced me to a few people but anytime I glanced over to Charles his eyes were on me. I didn't think anything of it and thought it must've just been a coincidence.

It was almost one am and I was about to ask Arthur to walk me home but when I turned around he was gone, after looking around for a bit I found him asleep on one of the couches.
Guess I'll have to walk myself home.

As I grabbed my purse and made my way to the door I realised it was just me and Charles.

"Where do you think you're going?" Charles asked me while he threw a couple of plastic cups into a rubbish bag.

"Home?" I stated the obvious and helped pick up some of the empty beer bottles.

"No way am I letting you walk by yourself at this time in the night" he threw the bag full of cups into a bin in the corner of the kitchen and grabbed his coat off a near by chair.

"I'm very capable of walking myself home Charles" I said

" I'm walking with you" he insisted as he opened the door and gestured for me to walk out.

"Fine" I rolled my eyes, realising there was no point in arguing, I walked out the door and waited for him to follow.

"Good girl" he stated, locking the door and shoving his key in his pocket.

I felt myself starting to blush, I walked ahead so he wouldn't see my face because I knew he would make fun of me for blushing at such a statement.

When we finally reached the end of the many flights of stairs, Charles opened the door and the gush of cold wind from outside nearly blew us away.

"Jesus" I huffed as I stepped out fully into the cold air, slightly shivering at the sudden cold contact.

"You cold?" Charles asked as he saw me hugging myself to keep warm.

I gave him a look that basically gave him his answer. He laughed and swiftly took off his jacket and wrapped it around me, leaving him in only his short sleeved T-shirt. He walked on ahead before I could argue.

"So, did you enjoy your night?" He asked, looking me up and down as I walked in his jacket.

"Yeah it was pretty good. I forgot to ask, the trophies in that room, what are they from?" I asked curiously, as I watched a smile appear on his face.

"Most of them are from my karting days, but some are from my race wins in formula 1" he stated avoiding eye contact with me.

I came to a complete stop. "Formula one? You're messing with me right?" I questioned as I couldn't believe I didn't know who he was, my dad had always been a fan of formula one but I was never bothered to watch it.

He giggled at my reaction.
"Nope, I race for Ferrari'' he said proudly.

" That explains your fancy ass car'' I slap my hand to my head dramatically.

"oh come on, you seriously didn't know who I was? I'm actually quite hurt by that'' he doubled over holding his stomach as if he had been stabbed.

"oh shut up'' I huffed and hit him with my purse and I started laughing as he acted even more hurt, holding onto the spot on his arm where i hit him as he began to fake cry.

"Come on, you big baby'' i said dragging him by his arm to my apartment which was just around the corner.

After his dramatic scene, Charles stood up straight.

"Goodnight ma chérie'' he said as he looked at the entrance to my apartment.

"Goodnight drama queen'' i said and he laughed again. I had begun to take off his jacket that he had given me when he stopped me.

"Nope, keep it'' he protested as he pulled it back over my shoulders.

"No way, this looks way too expensive'' I state looking down at the ferrari jacket he had given me.

"Fine then you can give it back to me tomorrow''
He smiled.

"What's tomorrow?'' I ask, confused.

"I am going to give you a proper tour of Monaco''

"I think you must have forgotten but I have already toured Monaco myself'' i say putting emphasis on the word 'myself ' to get my point across.

"No, no, no, you need a proper tour from the best tour guide in Monaco'' He said proudly as he pointed at himself.

"Oh god'' i roll my eyes walking up the steps to my door. "Goodnight Leclerc''

"Goodnight Alice Smith''

I turn around, shocked "how do you know my surname?''

"I May or may not have stalked you on google last night'' he covers his face with his hands to hide his embarrassment but peaks through his fingers to see my reaction.

I simply laugh "of course you did, i knew you were a kidnapper''
