"ferrari want me. for next year." ollie says, looking down at me.

all previous thoughts of anger at ollie disappeared immediately, and were replaced with feeling of pride for him.

"ollie!" i say, wrapped my arms around his neck and kissing him on the cheek as he places his hands on my waist.

"i'm sorry baby." he says, placing his head on my shoulder.

"no i'm sorry. i was mad without even asking why you were late. im sorry proud of you, you deserve this more than anything." i say, pulling my head up to kiss him properly, my hands cupping his face.

"it feels good to actually say it." he replies, smiling once we pull away, but his hands not moving from my waist.

"wait, they don't want charles anymore?"

"uh no... lewis is retiring." he whispers, as my eyes widen in shock.

"WHAT?!" i shout.

"sssh. i'm not meant to say that." he says, before laughing a little.

"oh my gosh. they must think well of you if they want you to replace him." i say quietly.

"i guess so. now, it's not about me. tonight is about you. 15 minutes til you go on." he says.

"right... my concert. shall we go in then." i ask, as he opens the door, keeping one arm around me.

"hey guys, sorry im late." he says, as i look back at him smiling.

"we are going to head to the front now. best to let you prepare." alex says.

"yeah, okay. thank you for everything." i say, hugging both alex and eli, thanking them for their help.

i start saying goodbye to everyone, and finally hugging kimi.

"your going to be amazing, don't worry and just enjoy it." kimi says, before kissing the top of my head and pulling away from the hug.

"thank you." i say, smiling at my brother before he walks out with eli.

(english)

now, it was just me, ollie and tate in the back room.

"nervous?" she asks.

"a little, but i'm going to feel a little bit of nerves right?" i reply, ollie's arm around my waist.

"yeah, everyone gets nervous. i do too sometimes and ive been doing this for ages." tate says, and i nod.

"im gonna go to the other now, or else ill miss the start." ollie says, leaning down to kiss me.

"okay, you have to tell me later what you honestly think about it." i say, kissing him back.

"i will." he replies, kissing me one last time before leaving.

"your gonna be great, don't think about the amount of people out there." tate says, as we walk to just off the stage.

i take a peek through the curtains, and wow, there was a lot of them.

a few minutes later, the background music ends, and the lights go down on the stage.
