Dares (Charles Leclerc)

Summary: y/n and Kiara, her best friend, are playing truth or dare. After y/n mistakenly chooses dare, her friend tells her to dm her celebrity crush and to say something really embarrassing. Little does she know that Charles does check his direct messages...

Y/n POV

"I'm bored" I said as I held the phone up to my face, making sure there weren't any strange angles in the FaceTime call. "What do you want to do?" Kiara asked, obviously bored as well. I shot up from my bed and shouted "Ooo I know! Let's play truth or dare!". Kiara sat up and looked Intensely at me through our call "where's the catch?" She asked suspiciously. 

"No catch" I replied. "Fine" She grunted. "Ok me first" I said "truth or dare?". "Truth" Kiara said.  I thought about it for a moment "do you have a celebrity crush?" I asked. She shook her head and I sighed. I had a crush on Charles Leclerc for about two months now, and since the lockdown had started I literally had all the time in the world to watch all his interviews. He was such a sweetheart!

"So y/n, truth or dare?" Kiara's voice interrupted me for my thoughts. "Errr dare" I quickly responded. How bad of a dare could she give me when I was literally stuck in my own house? Her face contorted into a smirk and she said "dm Charles Leclerc a very embarrassing text."

I quickly felt anxiety rise in me "uhhh I'm not sure if that's a good idea-" "Dew it!" Kiara laughed evilly, of course in a humorous way. I sighed and opened Instagram, went to his profile and clicked the private messages button. I kept asking myself why I chose dare in the first place. 

I took a breath and started typing as I could hear Kiara's feeble attempt of not bursting out laughing. My hands were shaking and my anxiety was through the roof: I had never been so nervous to text someone. 

Hello. My name is y/n and I was dared by my friend to send an embarrassing dm to my favourite celebrity, so here we go. You're probably not going to see this, which is the best for both of us, trust me. Ok. So when I was younger there was this teacher in school and we all hated her so one day I volunteered to pour glue all over her bicycle seat. What I didn't know was that my school had cameras and I was caught red handed. The footage was displayed in the class and I never felt like crawling under a desk and disappearing until then. So yeah. I'm glad you won't see this, but I couldn't back down from a challenge! Thank you for everything you're doing for Ferrari!

I took a deep breath, hit send and immediately wanted to take it back. Why didn't I pick truth? I hated my decision making abilities. Kiara was now laughing her ass of, which encouraged me to chuckle a few moments later. I knew he wasn't going to see that so it wasn't completely over for me. 

We decided to hang up for the day because I was getting kind of hungry and it was already 8 pm. I got up, went to the kitchen and started making pasta. When it was done I poured the hot water down the sink, and right then I heard my phone buzzing. I just shrugged it off, thinking it was my mum sending her daily text to make sure I'm ok. 

I got everything ready and sat down in my small table. The advantage of living alone was that I could afford an apartment for myself. Out of curiosity, I grabbed my phone and the lock screen was on. I noticed there was an Instagram notification. I immediately started chocking on the pasta, and felt nervousness rise in me: was that really it? 

I took a deep breath and opened the app. At first there were no notifications, which was a relief but also a disappointment, then the page froze and a three appeared on top of the bell symbol and one on top of the dm symbol. 

Without stopping myself, I clicked the direct messages immediately, and unread text from Charles Leclerc was visible. "Oh my god, oh my god. You're dreaming y/n. Very funny. Wake up now" I said to myself, but I knew this was really it. I clicked the chat. 

Hello y/n. In all my years of doing this I never got such a funny message! I have a lot of crazy fan girls in my dms usually, but I ignore the inappropriate ones. Yours made me laugh a lot and I even showed it to my team. Truth or dare can be very interesting sometimes, and to be honest, I'm glad your friend made you do this. I noticed you announced on your profile that you're coming to the meet and greet in a few weeks, so I'm very excited to see you there. Sending all the love, Charles. 

I dropped my fork and immediately exited my dms section when I finished to read it. Woah. This was definitely a turn for me. I clicked the notifications and gasped when I saw: 

charlesleclerc is now following you 

Everything inside my brain was a mess, and I didn't know what to do, but whatever happened, I would always follow my instinct. 

That was how I met my boyfriend, Charles Leclerc.
