Charlotte 21, lives in Monaco and it's going through a time of her life where she feels lost.
She's doing her master in architecture and she works hard to get to the end with the full knowledge of the many topics she has to study about.
But somethin...
I still can't believe it really happened. It happened so fast. I'm not gonna lie I knew something it was going to happen but it still feel so unreal. That kiss just made us do that step that we needed to cross the line of the word "friends" now we can say we're dating and there is no "but".
If years ago someone told me "you will date Charles" I would laugh at them. But here I am at class still thinking about the kiss and kisses he gave me in these past days. Now he uses every excuse to kiss me and I'll not complain about it.
We both try to make time for each other and it's working. He calls me "babè" and "baby" now and it makes my stomach feel like a whole damn zoo. I obviously told Valentine and I had to tell my mom since I'm staying away from home till late at night. They were so happy for me. My mom always loves Charles as much she loves us and the same does Pascale with us two. It's a luck that our families are so close and loves each other.
Finally the class ends so I start walking to Charles house. I put my EarPods and play Belong Together by Mark Ambor. "You and me, belong together like cold ice tea and warm weather" it describes so well how I feel about us and this whole song it's really the vibes that my days because warm weather is kinda showing up early this year.
I stop analysing the song when I get scared by a car stopping right on my left. "Hey sun-Sine!" I hear scream while I turn. Once I lay my eyes on his Ferrari I realise what he just said. My jaw drops. I run to his car, he leans over the passenger seat to open the door for me. I open it wide and enter in the car. "What are you doing here?!" I ask heavy breathing since my heart is hammering on my chest. He kisses my naked shoulder and accelerates to not get honked at. "I got a bit late because of Andrea and when I got to the parking your classmate told me you already left." he says while I put on the seat belt. I stay in silence and he looks at me checking on me. "I'm speechless." I say once he lays his green eyes on the road again. I place my left hand on the back of his head playing with his hair curling a lock around my index finger. "I've missed you." he confesses since yesterday we got to see each other at his house after classes but he had to go train with Andrea. "I've missed you too." I say grabbing his face gently with my hand, I lean a bit and miss his cheek. His scent hits me like a dejavu. But I lean back to my seat when I remembered were we are. "What happened?" Charles asks placing his hand on my thigh, gently rubbing his hand over my jeans. "No I just don't want that someone photographs us kissing..." I explain placing a hand over his hand and give it a squeeze. "Babe, I think it's time to let it out the news for real." Charles says taking my hand and kissing the knuckles. Gesture that I've always been crazy about. "I think you should talk to Silvia first." I say while he keeps driving with one hand holding mine with the other. "I'll once got home. You're okay with it?" he asks with a concerned voice tone. The way he always makes sure that I'm fine, comfortable is something so magical to me. "Ho voluto la bicicletta? Ora mi tocca pedalare." I say the Italian saying that my mom always used to say to me, "you wanted the bicycle now you have to pedal". "No you don't have to." he says firmly. "But I want to, so we really don't have to break ourselves." I tell him and he moss's with his eyes now covered by his sunglasses. "I also don't want to keep you hidden like a dirty little secret." he says and I can feel some guilty in his voice. "I know that I'm not your dirty secret. I understand how complicated is this situation for you." I say taking his hand to my lips and kissing it. "We're going to solve it." He says looking at me in the eyes almost like a promise.
We get home and he immediately calls Silvia that is the head of communications at scuderia Ferrari, asking for advice and asking if there will be no problems.
Obviously she asks if he's sure and he doesn't hesitate to say yes. She gives us some tips and recommends me to not read the hate comments that I'll surely receive.
Then Charles suggests a dinner on the yacht but this time with all our friends. We have to tell them first before people starts to talk.
They all come together. All dressed so well and once they get to see our hands the change face expression. Charles pulls me closer to him in a half hug and I hug him back looking at our friends jumping on the yacht. "Woah woah. What happened that we don't know?" Guizou asks taking off his sunglasses. Joris comes for a hug and whispers "finally. He couldn't stop talking about you. Now I get a break." making me laugh. "Halle -fucking- luja, finally you two let yourself go. We were waiting for this moment." Nicholas says. "Yeah he is a bad actor" Guizou says getting a slap on his stomach from Charles. "That's why I'm an f1 driver and not an actor." Charles says latching his arm around Guizou's shoulders. Marta hugs me from the side. She places her head on my shoulder and I place my head on hers. I can feel Thomas stare burning my skin. I don't know why but I feel so guilty but he never declared his interest openly so... "Are you two going public?" Thomas asks with a monotone. "Yes. Tonight." Charles says sounding proud and flattered. He looks right at me and his contagious smile makes me smile. "You two look so cute." Marta says to me. "He is unreal. All this is unreal to me." I confess. "Well..." Marta says stepping out of the hug "You should realise because from tonight you're going to be the most envied girl." she says and then I realise that F1 girlies are going to hate me for taking their driver off the market. "I guess we have to celebrate then." Riccardo says walking to Charles that is ready to navigate through the waters and find the best spot to enjoy the sunset later on. "I already put few bottles out." Charles says talking about the bottles that we bought at the supermarket. "Eh sì, ma ci devi andare piano tu eh!" Andrea says making me laugh already concerned about the amount of alcohol that Charles will put on his body. I know Andrea will close an eye for today even because I can already bet on the fact that Andrea will be the most drunk tonight.
