Charles randomly should've been normal to me but my heart still skipped a beat whilst I stared at my phone.

I was contemplating what to do next, a part of me was excited and the other one was nervous... I still can't comprehend why someone like Charles Leclerc would like to hangout with me.

Charles

Hi Charles, I don't have anything to do later.
Why?

Do you by chance like ice cream?

I do, why? 

Perfect. do you want to eat ice creams with me?

Yeah Sure, what time?

I'll pick you up in 30 mins?

 Alright. See you

See you K⋅

I immediately dropped the book that I was reading and changed from my pajama to a more decent outfit. I've been in Monaco now for a few months and Charles randomly asking me to hang out is now considered my new normal. Whenever he was home, he would casually ask me to hangout or to come over one of our houses. I guess that was the perks of living few houses away from the Leclercs and the other F1 drivers. They all have different schedule so they are rarely home in Monaco just like what Sofia said when we first met but when they are, they always dropped by to say hello or invite me to random parties at their residences. I snapped out of my trance when I heard my doorbell rang. I looked out and saw Charles casually waiting outside, leaning on his trademark Ferrari Car. I rushed my preparations and just grabbed my phone and my bag before bolting down to open the door for him. 

"Mr. Leclerc, you are very early today" I joked

"I have no one to talk to at home, figured I'll just wait for you here" 

"Well, you're in luck because I'm done. Where are you taking me today?" I asked him playfully

"We're going to my friend's restaurant. He's been inviting me to visit for some time now and I haven't been able to drop by because I stayed in Maranello for quite some time."

"Which friend is this?" I asked him curiously

"I haven't introduced you to each other yet but I will later. They are going to be adding desserts in their menu so we're invited to do some taste test for the ice creams. They wanted my feedback so I decided to invite you to do it with me" 

"Here I thought you genuinely wanted to treat me ice cream" I told him pretending to be hurt. He laughed and playfully tugged on the strings of the hoodie that I was wearing.

It's really funny how Charles is this big personality here and in his industry and yet I never felt pressured being with him. There was no pressure in dressing up to keep up appearances because Charles himself is just wearing a pair of shorts, hoodie and a cap. He was just a simple and normal guy who happens to drive an eye catching customized Ferrari.

ilpredestinato16 : I went to Lumiere earlier today and saw Charles with a girl. They looked so cute together. Charles was staring at her like she was the only person in the room. I was able to take a picture with Charles and this was his reaction when I asked if the girl with him was his girlfriend. He's down bad

charleslecfan : what did he say? are they dating? 

 ↳ ilpredestinato16 : he said no but he said she was special to him

 ↳ leclerfan : do you have a picture of the girl he was with? 

 ↳ ilpredestinato16 : I do but I won't post it, Charles asked me not to. All I can say was that she was nice unlike the previous one and she even took my picture with Charles. 

 ↳ charleslecfan: whoever she is in his life, I hope she makes him happy. Charles deserved happiness above everything else.
