Charles came 11th, which considering he didn't start qualifying too well, I was proud of him for.

He came back to the garage, looking very pissed off. He takes off his helmet and hands it to his team before pulling off his balaclava. His eyes catch mine and he smiles a little.

"Hey, Milla." He says, taking his headphones out.

"Hey, Charlie," I mutter, pushing his soaking hair out of his face. He smiles down at me, catching the hand that is midair.

"How was your experience in the garage?" He asks, kissing my palms. My stomach flutters a little at the movement, and I try to ignore the camera that is on us right now.

"It was fun, I enjoyed it. I wish you didn't have such bad luck yesterday." I say as he looks up at me from my hand.

Charles smiles and laughs. "Me too, but I'm glad you're here." He says, dropping my hand.

I know he says this for the act and the cameras but his words do affect me. I smile, "I'm glad to be here."

He smiles at me and I smile back. "Hi," I say and he laughs as he throws an arm around my shoulder and brings me over to his car.

"Qu'est-ce que tu penses?" He asks, gesturing to the car and asking for my opinion. 

"Of the car? Uh, c'est bein?" I say, because it does look nice and he laughs as does his mechanic who's working on the wheel.

"Tu es tellement ignorant..." He says shaking his head. "I'm so excited for your concert, it'll be amazing," Charles says.

"Yeah, maybe. If I don't fuck it up." I mutter, meaning it. I am terrified that I'll mess up given thousands.

"Well, I'll be there, so look for me if you get nervous." He murmurs and I blush at his words and he smiles, brushing the natural flush on my face before turning away. I turn around to Sarah whose jaw is dropped. She looks down at her phone once and I look down at mine to see she sent me a text.

I turn my phone off and shake my head. I had more important things to worry about.

"How y'all doing tonight?" I ask as I walk onto the stage outside the stadium, full of local and international fans.

The roar is immediate and I take a step back in fake shock. "Wow! We're excited then! I have an amazing set lined up for you guys tonight!" I say and everyone cheers. A camera comes close to my face and I have to stop myself from freaking out. I offer it a small smile and swallow. "Gracias por venir!" The cheering gets louder and I turn back to my band and giggle.

"Okay! Let's get started." I mutter under my breath.

We'd reached halfway through the show and the crowd was so hyped. It was amazing to see.

"You guys have been an amazing audience! But it's the time of night when we've reached the surprise song set." I say and Jonah, my drummer, lets out a whoop. I turn back to him and grin. "This first one isn't a song of mine, so because of that you all get two songs!" I say and the cheer begins again. "Don't tell anyone, okay?"

I take a deep breath and shake out the nerves in my fingers. I signal for Marianne to start playing piano and there is a faint recognition in the crowd.

"People say we shouldn't be together, too young to know about forever. But I say they don't know what they're talk talk talking about." By this point, everyone in the crowd is singing along. I find Charles's eyes in the crowd and don't look away.

The atmosphere from the crowd is insane and it makes me grin, before putting my arm in the air as I sing along and starting to wave it in time. Quickly everyone in the audience is doing the same.

"They don't know I've waited all my life to find a love that feels this right! One touch and I'm a believer, every kiss gets a little sweeter. It's getting better keeps getting better all the time boy!" I sing, trying to stay in some sort of harmony even though the song was originally sung by a boy band.

"They don't know what we do best it's between you and me our little secret. But I wanna tell 'em, I wanna tell the world that you're mine, boy!" Zayn's high note is high, but I managed to get there anyway.

"They don't know about the things we do, they don't know about the I love yous. But I bet you if they only knew they would be just jealous of us. They don't know about the up all night they don't know I've waited all my life just to find a love that feels this right. Baby, they don't know about they don't know about us. They don't know about us." I sing the last night and trail off, still locked in eye contact with Charles who smiles and starts cheering, so loud that I can hear him above the crowd in front of me. I laugh, a few people realise what is occurring between us, and I see that phones come out to record the interaction.

"Thank you!" I say, laughing. "I hope you all enjoyed that! I have one more song for you all and then we are almost done the night," I turn and nod to Marianne and nod and she smirks at me before shooting a wink and starting the song. "This is Dress," I say smiling and everyone cheers.

"Our secret moments, in a crowded room." I sing, and I can't help myself as I look at Charles again. He smiles. "They've got no idea about me and you. There's an indentation in the shape of you. Made your mark on me, a golden tattoo. All of the silences and patience, pining and anticipation. My hands are shaking from holding back from all this..." I hold out the mic to the audience and they sing the next bit.

They sing to me and every time it happens my arms get goosebumps. Ah, Ah, Ah! Say my name and everything just stops.

I take back the mic for the line. "I don't want you like a best friend. Only bought this dress so you could take it off! Take it off..." I drag my hands down my dress and send a wink to Charles and the crowd around him roars. "Carve my name into your bedpost. 'Cause I don't want you like a best friend. Only bought this dress so you could take it off. Take it off."

I change the lyrics of some of the sentences to better suit the scenario. The crowd is eating it up and I turn to Marianne on the keyboards and kiss her cheek she girns and I laugh. The song continues and I still don't look away from Charlie.

I finish the set and smile out to the audience. "That was for a special someone," I say into the mic and since I'm still looking at Charles I think people put two and two together. His eyes don't leave mine and I don't let mine linger either. I bite my lip and he sends me a wide grin.

AHHHH CAMI X CHARLES POSSIBLY BEING REAL??? who knows. (even i dont)
