Racing Love

Chapter 13

Carlos POV

"Carlos you do realize that she beat you 8 hours after she was about to die of a high fever?" Lando said as they waited to buy lunch. Charles was on the phone while Vikki decided to stay in the car.

"Thank you for reminding me," I said. Lando thinned his eyes and looked at me. "You went soft on her didn't you?" he asked.

"No. She is good" I said. He still had the look. "Maybe a little bit. But she is a beast. That I came to know" I replied.

"I like her" he replied. I smiled at him. "I think everybody likes her".

"You a little more?" He asked when I gave him a straight face. "Oh come on! You don't have to lie to me" Lando said.

"She is super nice, but she also doesn't open up a lot and I don't know anything about her other than she loves chocolate ice cream and building cars" I replied.

"Well then get to know her. Please don't make me play the matchmaker. I am already stressing out with George and Ashley" he said. Speaking of Ashley, I remembered about Rebecca.

"I think Ashley will kill me when I see her next time. I haven't talked to her about Rebecca," I said. Lando raised her eyebrows at me. "Yeah, I don't think she will like it," he replied as we approached  toward the car.

I opened the car door only to find Vikki leaning against her side of the door sleeping. "Vikki, Alex would like-" Charles called as he approached the car.

"Shhhhhh," I said. Charles gave me a small smile and got inside the back of the car along with Lando.

I drove the car slowly making sure not to wake her up. Once we reached the hotel, Lando and Charles got out.

"Just inform her that Alex would like to spend some time with her when she wakes up," he said. I gave him a thumbs up. Both of them made their way into the hotel when I parked my car.

She was still sleeping and I rethought if I should wake her up. I took my phone first and clicked a picture of her. I placed my hand on hers, "Hey sleepy head" I said shaking her slowly. She stirred and sat up opening her eyes and giving out a loud yawn.

"Where are we?" She asked. "We are back. Come on, let's get you to your room" I said when she gathered her things and opened the door. I jumped out of the car and walked towards her as we made our inside.

We entered the elevator. "Charles told me Alex would like to spend some time with you" I informed her. She scrunched her eyebrows as if something was pressing her but I remained silent.

We reached our floor and walked towards our rooms. "Here is your lunch," I said handing out the parcel to her when she unlocked her door.

"You wanna join?" she asked suddenly. "I mean, only if you wanna join" she added quickly scratching her head.

"Sure," I said with a small smile as we entered her room. "Could you wait, I'll get changed?" he asked.

"Of course," I said. She gave a small smile walking towards her bedroom when I went and sat on the couch.

She did take only a few seconds when she came back wearing a Ferrari T-shirt. I opened the parcel and handed her the food. She took a bite and gave out a sound. I chuckled.

"Japan always has the best food," She said. "That's true. I love it here. Even the track. It's one of my favourites" I said when she looked down.

"I never thanked you for the weekend. You didn't need to stay back" she said. "Yeah, about that. Promise me you will not do that again" I said. She thinned her lips.
