"Cuddle me, it's cold."
———
The winter, you hate it. The cold isn't something you celebrate. Whenever winter starts, you start counting down the day to summer. Or eveb spring, just any weather that doesn't make you shiver. Another thing you hate, being cold in bed.
You wake up in the early morning to an empty, cold bed. Charles had been gone for about an hour for training. You are happy for him that he can finally think about driving his car again, but it meant that you wake up on your own. You are always cold, Charles is your personal heater. His body warmth keeps you warm, so whenever he's not in bed with you, you're freezing. You count down the minutes before Charles would come back. He always comes back in bed for you, so you can spend some time together.
30 more minutes later, you hear the front door opening and closing, signalling that Charles is back. You listen to his every move. He first takes of his shoes and jacket, before walking into the kitchen. He grabs a glass and fills it with water, downing it and placing the glass in the dishwasher. He then moves through the house, up the stairs. He opens the bedroom door very softly, in case you're asleep. He instantly smiles when he sees your eyes open and looking at him. "Hey babe." He mumbles, feeling his heart flutter looking at you. "Hi." You whisper back. Charles leans down to press a kiss on top of your head and wants to walk to the bathroom. You grab his hand just in time, making him look back at you. "Cuddle me, it's cold." Charles chuckles, he knows how cold you get. "But I smell babe. I have to take a shower first." You shake your head. "I don't mind, just cuddle me, please." Charles nods. He takes off his training clothes, stripping until he's only in his boxers again. He moves into bed, pulling you against him immediately. His arms are around you, as he pulls your leg over his waist. You are wrapped around each other, just the way you love it. You rest your head against his chest, hearing his steady heart beat. "You're coming to Barcelona with me, and to Australia. I'm taking you everywhere this year." Charles mumbles against your head, making you frown. You've been with Charles for 4 years now. He has never taken you to every race with him. You usually come to just a couple, his favorites. Mostly because of your own life. "No, Charles, you can't take me everywhere." "I can and I will. I don't want to be somewhere without you, babe. Besides, you need my body warmth." You giggle, pressing yourself more against him. "Won't your team mind?" "No, they love you. Besides, they don't control when I take you or not." You never wanted to pressure Charles to take you, but you always wanted it. "Do you want to, though?" Charles asks you, making you realize you never said you would go. "Of course I want too, I would love nothing more." Charles kisses you, a big smile on his face. You spend the rest of the morning in bed, before having a lazy day on the couch.
