Maisie

I look at myself in the mirror as I put on my lipstick before we have to get going.

I know a couple of the drivers are going out to dinner together but I passed this time, Blake said he had something special planned for me.

It's a good thing actually. Because now I have a legitimate excuse to not go with the guys and not see Leclerc.

This entire weekend has been a roller coaster in every way possible. The crash, the fight, the talk from Toto, the conversation with Charles, the penalty, the race... Nothing went right, and I mean absolutely nothing.

It's not a weekend to remember. I just hope this dinner will clear my mind a little.

I still don't know what I'm going to do with Blake. I do have feelings for him, I'm not using him. They're just not as strong as what I feel for Charles...

Hopefully after tonight, I'll be able to understand my feelings more. It's been a while since we've gone out just the two of us. We really need this.

I press my lips together, making sure the lipstick is right. I'm happy with my make up, so we're good to go.

He didn't tell me where we're heading so I don't know how I should be dressed. I just wore a simple black dress that could be seen as casual and as elegant, depending on the ambiance around.

"I'm ready." I announce as I get out of the bathroom and find him putting on his shoes as he sits on the bed.

He stands up once done and sees me. He smiles, "You look beautiful, babe." I hate how his compliment doesn't make me blush, nor brings butterflies to my stomach, when Charles so much as looks at me, I turn red.

I softly smile and thank him before he presses a quick kiss on my cheek and takes my hand in his to head to our dinner.

I just make sure I left a bowl of water and food for Willow. She can take care of herself for an hour or two. I even left the TV on for her if she wants to watch.

The ride there is pretty quiet as I lay on his shoulder and drift off a little, exhausted of the whole weekend. I've already asked for a day off tomorrow from Toto so I can sleep in for as long as I need and I got the approval from him.

When we get there, Blake softly nudges me awake and gives me his hand to get out of the car. We immediately head in as there are a couple people out, fans mostly, taking pictures.

However, a little girl comes up to me and I can't resist her so I sign her cap and take a quick picture with her before heading to the door where Blake is holding the door open for me, waiting.

He places his hand on my back and leads the way in. I have no idea what this place is but it looks like a pretty casual restaurant. Good thing I wasn't in the mood for heels then.

Blake gives his name to the waitress who welcomes us in and shows us to our seats. It's pretty big in here, lots of places, indoors, outdoors, smoking corner, more private corner...

She leads us to the end of the restaurant and shows us our table. He thanks her politely and she tells us someone will be right with us.

We walk over to the designated table and of course something had to go wrong because why would God give me a break?

The guys are sitting two tables over. Not everyone's here. But the most important one is. Charles, his sister, Pierre, Liam, Max, Franco, Alex, Carlos, Lando, Yuki, Ollie, and Kimi are here.
