A/N: I hope you enjoy, I did change it slightly from the plot but kept the main theme of the request.

Charles' POV

8 Months

(Y/N) and I was sat at the table, trying to feed her breakfast to her while she fought to get out of her highchair straps and shouting nonsense at the top of her lungs.

"(Y/N/N) please... three more and you can get out okay. I promise." The noise stopped and she looked at me for a moment, her bright (Y/C/E) staring right into mien, before she held out her hand for the spoon. I smiled and fed her the three spoonfuls, placing the almost empty bowl on the table beside me.

"Charles!" I stopped and turned around to look about at my little goddaughter.

"Say that again?"

"Charles!" she yelled louder. I jumped out of my seat and released her from hers, engulfing her into my arms.

"Mon petit chérie Your first word, you clever little girl!" I exclaimed as she repeated my name over and over again.

That evening I was asked to put (Y/N) to bed as she refused to let anyone else do it. I tucked her in and put down the book we had been reading. She let out a big yawn and her eyelids fluttered shut.

"I promise I will give you the best life I can, the life your dad would've given you. I love you," I whispered before pressing a kiss to her head and leaving her room.

"Charles get up!"

I opened my eyes to see (Y/N) sitting on my legs, pulling at my arms.

"It's my birthday, you have to get up!" I chuckled and helped her pull me up before cradling her into my arms.

"It is indeed, I guess that means you've got some presents to open the, doesn't it?"

I carried her downstairs, my mum making pancakes for birthday breakfast. (Y/N) decided she wanted to eat while opening presents, causing her to get sugar and Nutella everywhere her hands could reach.

"I've got one more present for you..." I said as I wiped her face and hands, "but we gotta go somewhere to get it."

We drove to a track, (Y/N) singing her heart out the entire way there, wiggling in her car seat. When we arrived we walked over to the track, (Y/N) holding my finger as we walked, still singing to herself. A large present was sat on the track covered in glittery wrapping paper. (Y/N) ran over, immediately ripping the paper off revealing a small red go kart.

Jules had always said that if he ha a kid he would want them to kart, so I had a custom one built for her size.

(Y/N) turned around and looked at me in pure shock.

"I can be like you and daddy!" she yelled before running into my arms. "Thank you Charles, this is the best thing in my life!" I smiled and kissed the top of her head.

"You're welcome cheri, would you like to give it a go?"

I got her changed into her own tiny red jumpsuit, with a small Ferrari logo on it, with a matching helmet. In honour of her fathers dream. We stayed there for hours, teaching her the basics and practicing until mum insisted we come home.

(Y/N) and I laid in my bed that night watching Lilo and Stitch together and eating sweets.

"Charles?" I looked over, (Y/N)'s joy filled face had been replaced with sadness. "I miss daddy." I sighed and wrapped my arms around her.
