Florence POV

I woke up to the sound of yelling and loud cheering coming from the living room. I looked at my phone to see what time it was, causing me to internally groan as it read 8:20am. I looked over to see that Anastasia was still peacefully sleeping beside me, which had me even more confused.

I slowly got out of bed, not wanting to wake her up and honestly just wanting to figure out what the fuck is happening downstairs.

I walked towards our door before opening it slightly and stepping into the hall before shutting it slowly behind me. I cautiously walked down the hall and even more cautiously down the stairs, holding onto the railing as if my life depended on it.

As soon as I got downstairs the loud cheering continued, and then I heard, "COME ON UNCLE CHARLES, YOU CAN DO IT!!".

I had to stop walking due to the cute sound of Aurora yelling at what I assumed to be the television, but I was confused on who this Uncle Charles was. So I finally began walking again, this time with a little pace before standing outside of the living room where I could see the television.

I didn't know Aurora cared for Formula One, nor that she actually knew any racers. I watched as the final lap began and I noticed her brace herself on the couch, she hadn't even realized that she woke me up.

I walked around to sit down on the couch, surprisingly I didn't have to pee. Which I probably just jinxed, but I haven't watched a race in a while so this was a nice surprise.

I watched as the camera panned to show Hamilton's car, I smiled as I have been a fan of his and have known him for a little while. I just haven't seen or talked to him in ages, the camera panned back to the first car.

"Come on Uncle Charles, you can do it. Let's gooooo", she says as she continues to stare at the television before it clicked, "She's cheering on LeClerc, her favourite racer. But since when does she call him Uncle?".

She started jumping on the couch a little as she saw them begin waving the checkered flag, her hands moving to her mouth to block off the excitement.

I decided to video her reaction because it was the cutest thing ever, I plan on sending the video to Lizzie later to send to Charles as I know he's their Godfather for their twins.

Aurora jumped off the couch with pure excitement, she jumped and cheered before she spun around and saw me. I smiled at her as she pointed to the television as she saw Lewis cross the finish line stating, "Uncle Charles came in third on the podium, Uncle Lewis came in sixth".

"Since when do you call them your uncles?", I ask curiously and she smiled as she said, "I became close with Uncle Charles because he was Auntie Lizzie's chauffeur for a bit, then I met Uncle Lewis when the two decided to break into Auntie's house. Then Uncle Lewis drove me to school, brought me McDonald's to school for lunch and then we all went out to a go kart racing place after school".

"I also don't have many uncles, except the few like Uncle Sebastian, Uncle Colin and some of the Marvel people like Uncle Chris. So I wanted them to be my Uncles, plus they are a lot of fun and Uncle Lewis invited me to come to a race one day", she says with a soft smile as she turns down the volume.

"Well one day that will happen, but for now let's just prepare breakfast for the day ahead", I tell her and she nodded a little before I stood up.

"I'm just going to go to the bathroom, so why don't you check what all we have for breakfast this morning?", I ask and she nodded again but this time a little more rapidly as if she's starving, which she most likely is considering she's probably been up watching the race since the start.
