{RULES OFF-TRACK} {CL16}

5 - Hotel Arrival

Charles got out first and opened my door for me. He was greeted by more fans and he signed most of them. I couldn't help but notice a little boy who was wearing all Ferrari merch head to toe but he was being pushed back.

I felt so bad and he looked upset. I thought I'd do something good and ask people to move aside and let the boy through.

"Hey kiddo I'm guessing you like Charles? want him to sign your hat?" I ask kneeling down.

He just nodded and held my hand as i walked over to Charles.

"Charles would you mind signing this young mans hat?" I ask politely smiling at the little boy jumping with joy.

Charles nodded and Signed the hat then gave him an official CL16 hat that was in his backpack. The boy hugged him and held my hand back over to his dad. His dad said thank you and i walked about over to Charles.

"Didn't realise you were good with kids?" Charles mutters as we check-in.

"You didn't realise a lot of things, for example, i stole your headphones," I smirk holding his headphones up.

Before charles could reply, my father stood behind us. He softly smiled at me than gave Charles his death stare. Behind him was Lewis and a few other drivers i haven't met yet. The receptionsit gives me my hotel key and i head towards the elevator. Im shortly greeted by Charles getting into the elevator.

CHARLES POV:

Before i could respond Toto appears behind us. I cant help but notice the death stare that follows. I ask the receptionist for my key and when I'm about to walk away toto whispers something in my ear.

'Don't even think about it, Leclerc. She is MY daughter not one of your many relations"

I scoff and walk away. 'Many Relations'. Absolutely ridiculous. I would never actually be in a relationship with Nora. I hate her. I hate her perfect forest eyes and her oak brunette hair. Her weird little rules with my brother. Her perfect figure drives me crazy. The way she's thoughtful and beautiful. I couldn't help but debate having feelings for her but that was years ago. then again 2 days ago..

We wouldn't work. That stupid rule that arthur created. If it wasn't for that i would have told her long ago. My thought break when i see her perfect smiling look at me.

"Charlie" god i love the way she says that.. "Did you listen to what i said?" she asks looking hurt at my actions. shit.

"Sorry Amour, I was just-" i begin to say before she interups me.

"You don't have to explain to me. you have a huge season coming up! its okay to be nervous." She places her hand on my shoulder smiling up at me. God id kiss her right now. it would be so easy.

Before I could say anything the elevator doors opened. She walked out smiling with her perfect lips. She walked into to her hotel room which was opposite mine. I have to stop thinking like his. I have to hate her or at least make her hate me. I don't want to hurt her.

NORAS POV:

As I walked into the room and was amazed of how nice it was. I looked back and noticed Charles still staring at me.

"Charlie? do you need something?" I ask smiling.

"Just thinking about how I'm going to get you back." He smirked.

"Oh sure! Wolffs always bet Leclercs I wouldn't be too sure." I scoffed.

"Oh I am sure." He replied walking into his room.

I look around the room just taking it in and start to unpack. I just shove everything in certain drawers and hope for the best if I need to find something.

I sit on the bed and start flicking through the channels to find there's only news channels. I got a knock at my door to see my father waiting outside.

"Nur schnell, gibt es heute Abend ein Treffen mit allen Fahrern und Teammanagern und ich möchte, dass du kommst, du hast etwa anderthalb Stunden Zeit." He says with his arms crossed like always.
"Just quickly, there will be a meeting with all drivers and team managers tonight and I would like you to come, you have about an hour and a half"

"Großartig. Ich nehme an.." I scoff at his expectation that I'll just be fine with it. 'Great. I suppose..'

He shut my door and I went through my room to find the perfect outfit. I came across a silk white dress and some silver jewellery that my mother had packed for me. I looked through my shoe suitcase to find my boxed YSL heels that I hadn't got the chance to wear.

I do a full face of makeup and take photos to post on my instagram account. Once I'm finished, I hear a knock at the door. I see a beautiful woman standing in front of me looking confused.

"Is Charles in there?" She asks looking stunned for a second.

"Oh this is 309! He's in the room opposite 308!" I smiled assuring her. I look at her again. She's so beautiful.

"Oh! I was about to say I didn't know Charles standards were so low!" She laughs acting like an average mean woman. Looking at her again she isn't that beautiful. Just plastic looking.

I try not to be hurt by her words but she wasn't wrong. I am way below Charles standards. I mean Mrs Barbie model just proves it.

"Hey baby! I'm ready! I was just getting acquainted with her" She said looking me up at down. Maybe I was too overdressed? Was I skinny enough for this dress? Am I not good looking enough for this outfit? Did I look horrible?

I stood there for a second gathering my thoughts then looked into Charles eyes and shut my door. I didn't want to go and that women just confirmed I wasn't going.

I turned to the mirror and turned to the side of me. In my mind I knew i wasn't fat but I had a feeling. I couldn't stop moving the dress trying to look better.

I felt tears in my eyes. I wasn't normally this insecure but when I saw her with Charles. I suppose it hit me more than I expected.

I wasn't in love with him or anything.. or I don't think I am??
