Charles pov.

The sun is shining beautifully through our room. I like waking up early, it's so relaxing. It is just you in a world that still sleeps.

Gently pushing Max's arms off my waist I slide out of bed, reaching for my phone I notice a shit ton of missed calls and texts from Ferrari and Carlos. Shit! I'm in so much trouble. I decided to call Carlos to see how bad my reprimand is going to be.

"Charles you're so fucked cabron! Everyone was asking for you and Max. It was suspicious as hell the reporters are going nuts güey!" Oh shit the reporters! I mentally face palm. How could I forget how noisy the media is.

"Thanks man I'll talk to you later ciao." I hang up and look up yesterday's interviews. Pretty much the entire interview was about where Max and I were. Plus they are already formulating rumors. God this is bad.

It looks even worse because we came in 1-2 so Checo was being interviewed all alone. I need to send him a gift or something poor Checo.

I head to the kitchen to make some coffee when there's a loud pounding noise outside our room.

"Charlie? Liefde where are you?" The loud sounds must have woken him.

"I'm in the kitchen amour." I call out because the banging hasn't ceased, Max comes out wrapped in our blanket and goes to check the peephole.

"Fuck! Charles call security!"

I'm absolutely stunned, what the hell. Who's out there?

Without warning we hear screaming from the other side of the door.

"I KNOW YOUR IN THERE MAX. OPEN THE DOOR AND I PROMISE I WONT HURT YOU BABY." It's obviously a woman's screams.

Then it hits me, it's Kelly. I trip trying to run over to the hotel phone.

"Please baby, open the door honey. I promise it will be different this time. I still love you." The sudden switch up scares me. How can a person go from threatening to loving in seconds.

Max looks at me petrified. I can't imagine this happening to him all the time when he was with her. I'm able to call security. They tell me that they will be here as fast as possible.

I go to comfort Max. But it's hard because Kelly is still screaming in the background. We end up hugging trying to make the best of the moment.

We hear screams once again but this time they aren't directed at Max. A few moments go by and it goes quiet.

A deep relief is felt. She was finally gone. Max takes my hand and leads us back to bed. I guess a little more sleep won't hurt.

He wraps the blanket around the both of us as he cuddles into my chest, normally I'm the little spoon but sometimes it's nice to feel like I can protect him from the outside world.

Walking up a couple hours later I don't feel Max with me. Rubbing my face I see he's no longer in bed.

Looking over to my night stand I see a note from Max, saying he went to see Christian and that he will return soon.

Getting out of bed again I check the time. My flight is late tonight so I still have time to spend with Max.

While walking into the kitchen I'm hit with an amazing aroma. I see breakfast already on the island with coffee and another note.

This note read, 'If I'm not back by ten eat without me, your Max.' Oh my goodness. My heart is so full. Max is always doing sweet gesture's that cause me to fall deeper in love with this man.

He's perfect, Kelly doesn't deserve him. I can't believe how she would treat him. I want to be the best version of myself for Max.

And as much as I would like to wait for him to get back I'm starving plus I have to see Fred before my flight, quickly I scarfed down my breakfast, grabbed my keys and head out the door to my teams hospitality.

On my way I encountered many fans and reporters who swarmed me with questions about yesterday.

I couldn't answer truthfully do my only option, run.

Busting through the doors all eyes are on me. Several employees are giving me dirty looks while others are shocked to see me.

"Oi cabron you're in trouble" Carlos walks over to me giving me the ooohhh you just got caught face. I roll my eyes at him antics.

"I know Carlos."

"I don't think you do man." I look at him stunned what did he mean? Was there something else that I'm getting reprimand for?

"Charles, your team principal is ready to see you." A lady behind the desk tells me ushering me into the first door on the left.

Shit.
