"Charles what is it?" I asked with urgency, too sitting up in a frantic state.

"I'm fine just a bit of pain"

"Where's your pain medication?" Looking around the several bags scattered on the floor around us underneath our discarded clothes, it could've been in any of them.

"No need to bother" He said with a dismissive wave of his good hand, clearly trying to hide the discomfort he was in "I can handle it"

"Yeah that wasn't up for debate" I replied back gathering a spare sheet from the bed and wrapping it around my body, before getting up and searching through the first bag I'd picked up. At first he just watched me but with a slight nod he finally relented back against the headboard of the bed "Alright"

When I found the bottle of pills at the bottom of the bag I grasped them tightly in my hand, before shifting my body across the bed and perching myself gently ontop of his lap "Now do I have to force feed them you or are you going to take them like a big boy?"

His eyes twinkled with amusement as he reached out to take the pills from my hand, his fingers grazing mine as he did so "I'm not that big yet" He teased unable to reframe from making any conversation a little dirty "But I'll take them like a good boy"

"Good that's what I like to hear" I said smiling as I reached over his body to the nightstand where a bottle of water was sat waiting. He swallowed the pills without fighting me on it, swigging them down with water "Thank you"

"You're welcome" I planted a firm kiss against his wet lips. I felt a surge of warmth overcome me as he wrapped his arms around my waist pulling me further against him with my legs straddling him strongly "I think we should make a deal"

"Your deals are shit" I giggled looking down at him.

"Hey! How do you know this one's shit when you haven't even heard it yet" He said with a mock pout, his hands gripping my hips with a firm yet gentle hold "I promise this one will be worth it"

"Ugh okay fine what is it?"

"We never leave each other. No matter what happens"

That soppy idiot. I couldn't help but laugh at the sweetness of his words. Everything was too good to be true. My boyfriend was Charles Leclerc. The friend I didn't expect to fall so in love with and here he was making a deal to never leave him. Like I ever would when he was everything I'd been looking for since Nathan.

"Deal"

"I knew you'd agree" He leaned in, his lips brushing against mine into a deep kiss. That was suddenly interrupted by a sharp knock at the door followed by the sound of Carlos's voice "Hurry up love birds let me in" he shouted.

"What on earth-"

I broke away from Charles who looked just as confused as I did. As far as I was aware everyone had already left the hotel and was heading for Baku, so when i threw on a robe and opened the door to Carlos, George and Lando you could imagine the shock we both received.

"What are you guys doing here?" Charles asked sitting up wrapping the rest of the bed sheets around him.

"I told you we'd interrupt something disgusting" Lando started before being silenced by a nudge from George "Are you guys coming or not?" Carlos asked with a grin looking between the pair of us. I felt Charles's hand rest against my back when he'd reached the door. Behind the guys were several suitcases packed "Coming where?" Charles asked looking rather confused.
