Song: Before you go by Lewis Capaldi

"What is that smell" Arthur asks coming into the kitchen. "I'm trying to cook bacon" I say lifting it up but it's super burnt "See, it looks delicious" I say trying a bite but spitting it out immediately "What's is that smell" Charles asks standing next to Arthur. "I can't cook" I say laughing and throwing the bacon away. "Yeah, well probably just go to a restaurant with the guys" Charles says dialing a number on his phone to make reservations. Suddenly my phone rings. "Ooo who's that" Arthur asks snatching my phone and looking at the ID "Give my phone back you asshole" I say climbing on his back. Charles just looks at us still on a phone call. "Hah! You dumbass" I say as we both fell to the ground but I still got my phone. "Hello?" I awnser
"Hi darling" the voice says, it sets chills down my spine
"Who is this?" I ask looking at Arthur, he looks confused.
"It's Mrs. Chattem Sarah" she says and I go blank, Laurens mom, I didn't talk to her in ages.
"M-Mrs.Chattem?" I ask stunned.
Arthur knew who she is so he was confused and Charles immediately declined his phone call to listen
"I have some news for you Sarah" she says in a soft tone. Charles showed that I should put it on speaker so I did. We all just sat there on the floor looking at the phone.
"What news?" I ask.
"I wanted to inform you that Bianca has passed away this morning" she tells me and I go blank, Lauren and I were good friends with Bianca, We usually played together but when me and Lauren got to highschool Bianca moved away.
"What?" I ask again, no tears just my face that is completely white. Arthur and Charles held me but I didn't feel sad I just felt, nothing.
"Bianca, like Bianca the girl me and Lauren used to play with?" I ask again
"Yes sweetheart" she says and you can hear the sadness in her voice.
"Thanks for letting me know Mrs. Chattem" I say grabbing my phone to decline. I just sit there for a few seconds, I'm in shock.
"Sarah?" Charles asks, I didn't even hear him. Charles looked at Arthur and Arthur looked at him.
"Sarah?" Arthur asked
"Yes" I reply..
"Are you okay?" He asks
"I don't know" I simply say.
I felt the two of them hug me even tighter.
"You don't have to go with us, we can cancel" Charles said and I shake my head.
"No, it's fine I'll just get ready" I say standing up and going to my room.

(Outfit inspo)

I put this dress on since the restaurant is a bit fancy. I grab my phone and go downstairs to meet Arthur and Charles. We go outside climb in the car and drive off. The car ride was quiet but I didn't mind I just looked out into the streets of Monaco. When we arrive Max and Pierre was already there so we joined them. "Hey guys" I say quietly sitting down. "Hey Sarah" Max says enthusiastic, but sees something is up and gives Charles a questioning look. Arthur just shakes his head and sits down. They chat while I just listen. I sit across from max with Arthur on my left and Lando will sit on my right. After a few minutes Lando barges in, of course his late, everyone greets him and I just give him a smile. "Hey sar" he says sitting next to me "Hi" I say playing with my glass "You okay?" He asks and I nod
"What's up?" He asks taking the glass away from me sothat I can look at him
"It's Nothing" I say looking the other way. "Well it's clearly something" he says. "You know you can trust me " he adds and I nod. "It's just, I'm scared" I say almost whispering "off what?" He asks "That I'll lose everyone" I say looking him in the eyes, still no tears.
"Why?" He asks.
"While we were playing padel, I lost one of my friends" I say quietly. Charles, Pierre, Max and Arthur were Chatting about the next race while me and Lando were talking. "I'm so sorry Sar" he says. He opens up his arms and I approve. I give him a quick hug and smile at him. "Ready for the race Sar?" Max asks and I nod "Yep, our strategies are looking good but the car is a shitbox" I say that causes him to laugh "I almost died in practice the other day" I say sipping on my water. "Yeah you could see how bad it was oversteering" Arthur says and I nod. "I almost spun" I say shaking my head.

The dinner was nice I just ate a bit and then we went home. "I'm gonna shower" I say to my siblings and they nod. I went upstairs into my room, took my clothes off and showered. When I stepped in the cold water washed away all my sweat and worries. I put on some shorts and a bra and went to sleep.

Charles POV
"She was very quiet at the dinner" Arthur says and I nod. "I mean she lost a lot if people in her life Arthur" I say as I got two beers out of the fridge and sat on the sofa. "Yeah I know" he says "do you remember her?" He asks me and I think "yeah, I remember one time Sarah, Lauren and Bianca went swimming but they were little like 6, and they were scared because they thought there were sharks in the pool" I say giggling from the memory "You could see how scared they were in there faces" I say and Arthur chuckles.
