Chapter seventeen

Start from the beginning
                                    

We talked for a while which was nice, so much had happened whilst I was away. So it was good catching up on things. Max and Kelly seemed to be very happy together which warmed my heart so much. I'm happy that he has found someone like her.

It was now 16.30 and time for the sprint race to begin. I was quite excited, I kinda like these sprint races. Today they are driving 17 laps or 30 mins depending.

The lights went out, Lewis was in first place but Max had a better start which made him overtake Lewis. Lewis was trying hard to get back at first but he couldn't, Max was under lots of pressure from Lewis behind.

At the sixth lap Checo spun off, oh no! Luckily he didn't hit any barriers or that anyone else was involved. We continued to drive, but had to push as hard as he could if he wanted a good result, now that he was at the back of the grid. Max was at the other end unbeatable, he had a huge gap to Lewis in second.

The chequered flag waved and Max had won the sprint race. "Yes!" I yelled and hugged Kelly who I watched the sprint with. We were both very happy for him and the entire team, Max's pole today is the first pole for red bull at silverstone in ten years!.

He will then start first for tomorrow's race with Lewis right behind, and then Bottas and Charles sharing the second row. I was over the moon that Charles is starting fourth tomorrow, which could make him get a good result, he needs it at the moment.

I woke up from a good night's sleep, with Charles by my side. It was race day and I was actually very excited for today, I have a great feeling it will be a good race. - "Goodmorning mon amour" Charles said and gave me a kiss on my cheek. "Goodmorning" I said smiling whilst pulling myself closer to him to give him a hug. "I have a good feeling for today" I said while he was running his fingers through my hair. "You do?" .. "Yeah, I don't know why".. "I hope you're right.. Well let's get ready" he said getting up from bed, I did too.

Then we showered and got ready for the day. Today I was wearing some denim jeans, a pair of nike air forces and a red off shoulder top, I chose red as support for ferrari.

"I love when you're wearing red!" Charles said smiling, I smiled back to him. "Thanks, do you think I should wear a cap?" I asked and tried taking one on whilst looking in the mirror. "Definitely it looks hot!" he laughed. "Well then that's decided" I answered and kept the ferrari cap on, it had number 16 on, of course.

We arrived at the track together and got many looks, a lot took pictures as well. I wanted to grab his hand as we walked down the paddock, but we simply walked side by side innocently. To be fair, everyday that went by made it harder to keep pretending.

We went directly into the ferrari hospitality with closed doors and no press, which was lovely. I immediately saw Carlos and Isa sitting at a table eating some breakfast. "Let's go say hi, shall we?" I asked, Charles nodded.

"Hey guys, sit down" Isa said smiling, so we did. Charles went to get some breakfast for us, he had to eat his special diet breakfast, but he also got something really good for me.

After eating breakfast and talking for a while, Carlos and Charles had to attend many things. Sundays were always the busiest day of the race week. So Isa and I just spend some time together, which was wonderful..

With 15 minutes till Charles and the other drivers had to be ready for the national anthem, he was getting ready in his driver's room. "Charles, all the rumors are back again" I laughed as I was looking through twitter, where I saw a picture of us arriving earlier. "Really?" He laughed and walked towards me to look at the comments on the tweet.

"It would be nice to get it out in the open, so we didn't have to hide all the time," I said, putting my phone away. "I know, I would like it too," he said, stepping into his race suit.
