The Prancing Horse

Forty

***I changed my mind so this chapter will be changed a little bit***

That Freedom was very short-lived as July 5 came rushing toward me. I now have to be in Austria since I promised the drivers I would be there to watch the first race.

As I was walking toward the Mercedes Hospitality when my phone rang, "Dad #2" it read.

"Hello, Kimi!" I replied

"Gigi," he exclaimed frantically.

"What's wrong?" I asked.

"I was walking by Ferrari and I think there are some problems going on over there," he said with a slight edge to his voice.

"Oh great! What's the deal now?" I asked as I started walking swiftly down the lane to the Ferrari garage, where some yelling could be heard.

"YOU! You promised us a car that would win us a championship, but instead, we have a car that isn't working as you promised!" Charles yelled. Oh boy.

"Hey! Boys how about we all take a walk." I called as I walked inside.

"No! I want this addressed!" Charles snapped, which prompted an eye roll from me. "Fine! What do you want to happen?" I asked.

"I thought when you would take over it would be better for all of us," Charles complained. "My control of Ferrari doesn't start until 2021," I stated simply. "Fine, but can you do anything right now?" Sebastian asked. "My hands are tied, but one thing my father taught me is that if the drivers are complaining look at the leader," he stated and turned to Mattia who took a deep breath.

"I don't' enjoy losing. I especially don't enjoy losing when I was promised I would be winning." I stated with a raised voice, while keeping direct eye contact with Mattia. "What do you want me to do then!" he exclaimed and I snapped.

"Either you figure out how to get us a winning car or YOU. ARE. OUT!" I yelled and all three of them shrunk back. "And Charles! You need to suck it up and stop complaining about every little thing that doesn't go your way!" I yelled at the driver whose mouth dropped. I turned to walk out of the garage, "Oh and Sebastian!" I called whipping around to see the driver cringe. "Oh, I was just going to say thank you for being such a team player and understanding driver, especially after the way your contract was handled," I said sweetly and then continued walking out of the garage. "Thin Ice Binotto! Thin Ice!" I yelled and I moved to go hang out in the Red Bull garage.

"Hey, Scarlett!" Alex called.

"Hey! How's it going around here?" I asked. "Pretty steady! I think being in Red Bull is great because there usually isn't that much uncertainty and drama like Mercedes and Ferrari." he explained and I chuckled at his words, "I take it you heard my blow out." I replied. "It happens to the best of us," he said and then walked away to continue working.

"Trouble in Ferrari land?" Christian asked as he came to sit in a chair beside me. "You wouldn't even believe," I scoffed.

"What happening?" he asked.

"Well you know trying to get the car up to top performance is not looking so great right now. Then I want to find a suitable spot for Sebastian after the way they screwed with his contract." I explained it to the Principal. "Yeah, you're always welcome to bring your money to Red Bull." Christian joked. "If I did, would you let Sebastian join?" I asked.

"You are a businesswoman as well," he stated and I nodded. "Between you and me...yes. Plus it would be hard to say no with that amount of money you would be bringing," he added. I looked at the garage busy at work while thought swirled in my head. Max and Alex were messing around and bumped into a mechanic which made me smile softly.

"As much as I would love to, I can't," I said suddenly.

"Can I ask why you can't?" he questioned.

"Sure! Look at Alex and Max, they are an amazing team and I won't break that up. Alex told me earlier that he liked Red Bull since there were less drama and less uncertainty. You guys have a great thing going on here. Plus how would Sebastian feel when he finds out that his spot was basically bought." I explained and Christian just nodded. 

"Well you guys have to get going soon, so good luck!" I called to the garage and went back to Ferrari and took a seat at the pitwall. 

The race was chaotic, but it was good to be back and we were all static that Charles made it to P2. "Let's go meet them!" Mattia suggested and we walked through the lane to see Charles walking down to us. 

"Charles!" I exclaimed happily as he hugged Mattia and then he turned to me. I could see conflict in his eyes before he wrapped me tightly in a hug, while keeping eye contact with me. His eyes flicked down to my lips and back up again shutting his eyes and taking a deep breath. "God help me." he whispered before his lips crashed into mine. 

"Charles..." I whispered when he pulled away. 

"Yes?" he asked and I moved his hand to my stomach and his mouth dropped, "Are they mine?" he whispered. "YourS and I'm 3 and a half months along." I replied. "I'm going to be a dad?" he asked with teary eyes and I nodded. 

"I'M GOING TO BE A DAD!" Charles yelled as he ran to go tell Sebastian. 

Soon everyone was looking outside there garage to see Charles jumping up and down with Sebastian before they both ran over to me and started gushing over the fact I was pregnant. 

"How are the twins?" Kimi asked as he gave me a big hug and Charles froze. "Did you say twins?" he whispered and we all nodded right before there was a loud thump on the ground and Charles was out cold. 

"Well...at least he knows." Sebastian said while trying to burst out laughing, but Kimi was doubled over as laughter overcame him like nobody had ever seen before. "Sebastian and I were just joking to see his reaction." Kimi said and I stared at them with a huge smirk. "What?" he asked. "Jokes on you two, you're going to be God Fathers to my twins." I said and they looked at each other, then me, and then two more thumps on the ground. 

"Could we get a medic!" I called through my laughter as I took pictures of my family .
