Clara's POV

It's late at night. The stars are in the sky and shine so much. The quiet noises are in around the city. Only the noise from insects is heard. Not all street lights are working and it's pretty dark.

I'm putting my suitcase in Leticia's car trunk and I need to be at the airport with Monica. Our flight to Abu Dhabi is at 5 am, so we have 2 hours to wait there.

In airport has only a few people at our gate. It's quiet and a lot of people are sleeping or they just try to sleep. We get some coffee and sit in one cafe.

«Is having something between you and Charles?» Monica whisper to me and smile

«I think no. He kisses me when he comes to my room and acts like he is my parent, but nothing more» I whisper back and juggle at her

«Are you sure about this?» She looks at me suspicious

«Yes. Hundred percent. This is enough between us» I smile nervously and drink from my coffee

«Arthur thinks that he has a crush on you, but he still doesn't ask him about this» she gets her phone and shows me a photo of them on the plane

Maybe they are going to Abu Dhabi for Charles's race.

«Cuties. But wait. You and Arthur. The roses. Tell me everything about what happened right now between you and him» I sit next to her and get her phone from her hands

«Nothing special. Oh, hang on. Our flight is after 2 minutes. Let's go.» She gets my hand and we go check our tickets and go to the plane

On the plane mostly I sleep and watch movies with Monica, because the flight is around 18 hours. A few minutes before the plane landed, one of the Formula 1 managers texted Monica that someone was coming to get us. Happily this time we are not late for Media Day.

We landed and went to get our suitcases. It's been a few minutes since we got it and went to the place where someone was waiting for us. We finally find out that one black Porsche, for which Monica tells me. I open the front car door and see Charles Leclerc to be in the driver's seat.

«Come in. We come to get you» Charles winked at me

«US?» I ask confused and look bad at him

Second latter I see how the rear window is going down. Arthur shows up and waves at me and Monica.

Charles put our baggage in the trunk and drove us to the paddock.

The conference was good and during the break, Charles took my hand and we went to one room.

«Clara, I need your help right now» he says and looks at me

«So, you know that I broke-» he started to say but suddenly someone came into the room

«Charles, L'interview n'est pas si bonne pour la publication sur les réseaux sociaux. L'équipe veut que nous le fashions à nouveau, avant que le reste de la conférence ne se poursuive» | The interview is not that good for posting on social media. The team wants us to make it again, before the rest of the conference continues | Pierre just appears from somewhere and calls Charles

«Talk later?» I ask before Charles leaves the room

«Sure»

It's close to 10 pm and Charles is still working. In my mind is the sentence that he starts to say and Pierre pauses him. What does he want to say to me? Is it something important? I can't wait for him anymore, so I call a taxi to come and get me. Monica and Arthur went to the hotel for 2 hours and I just stayed to wait for Charles. But I'm so tired from that much travel and I want to get a rest.

Before I leave the paddock, I write a note for Charles and put it in his room.

I'm at the hotel. Hope that
what you want to tell me
is not that important.
See you later or tomorrow.
