After race we came back to the hotel. I got ready for party. I wore a blue short dress. Dennis will be here soon. He gonna take me.
I heard the door knock. I walked towards to door, open it. And i saw him, Arthur. He was standing in front of me. I noticed the flower in his hand, red roses. He looked at all my body, then our eyes met.
"This is for you" he said and handed me the roses in his hand. I took my hand from the door and took the roses from his hand with my both hands. "Thank you"
"I see you're ready for party" he said. I nodded. "Waiting for Dennis, huh?" he asked. I know he's jealous. But i won't go with him. "Yes" i said. Then i saw elevator door open. Dennis got out and saw Arthur. He froze. Arthur saw me looking away. He turned around and saw Dennis. Dennis waved shortly. Arthur turned his head to me "Are you going with him or me?" he asked.
Am i going with you? Definitely, no. "I told you I'm going with Dennis" i said. "No, no, you can go with him" Dennis said. Arthur turned to him. "I'm going with you, Dennis. Let's go" i said.
I walked past Arthur and left. I got into the elevator with Dennis. "Is there something between you two?" Dennis asked. I turned to him "No"
We get out and left the hotel. Dennis opened cars door for me. I got in the car and closed the door. I look at the roses in my hand. I put them in the back seat. I don't need them.
Dennis got in the car and look at me. "You look beautiful" he said. I blushed a little. I waited compliment from Arthur. But he didn't.
"Lily i feel uncomfortable now, have i made things bad between you?" he said. He looks nervous. "No, you didn't" i shortly answered.
He started to drive the car. "Will my stupid brother be there?" i asked. He laught, Dennis has watched my and Kevin's fights many times. He knows we calling each other like this. He don't like to call me 'Lily' and i don't like to call him 'Kevin'. We we have some nick names for eachother.
"He's actually there" he said. He never miss a party, no matter what. "I promised Kevin I wouldn't let you drink too much" he said. "Really?" i said.
"Really" he said. Then look at me. "But if Arthur is there, i'll put all the blame on him" he chuckle. Wish i could chuckle back. "Actually, you can't" i said. He looks confused. "Why? He is your boyfriend, he has to take care of you"
"Dennis, we broke up" i said softly. More suprised than i though. "That's why acting weird and why you're going to party with me"
"Yep, that's correct" i said. "I was thinking he is addicted to you" he said. But youre just acting like a child who is addicted to his mother. "I know"
We arrived. I left roses in th car and got into the club. We walked to VIP section. When we get in I saw all the formula 1 drivers. And Kev. He walked towards to me. "My little sissy!" he shouted and hugged me. Drunk already? "You left Arthur" he said and laught. Drivers looks confused. "They broke up" Charles explained. Now they are looks like 'oh'
"Yeah" i said and sit next to Charles. Charles is the only person I'm close to now. "Is Arthur coming?" he asked to me. I looked at him.
His eyes, they are same. Remind me of Arthur's. Same blue. Same look.
"I guess so" i said. Then someone got in. I turned to and saw him. He saw me, looked into my eyes.
"Arthur!" Kevin shouted again. He turned to him. "Kevin" he said. "Are you drunk already?"
"No, no just a little" he said and put his arm around Arthurs shoulder. Arthur looked at me and Charles. Then he saw Dennis who is still standing.
"Stop being annoying and sit" Lando said. Arthur came closer and sat next to me. I am between Charles and Arthur. It feels strange. Dennis and Kevin sat down.
Arthur turned to me "What would you like to drink?" asked. I really don't wanna drink. "Nothing" i said. "Fine" and gave me that look.
"Sissy, you love tequila, don't you" Kevin said. He is drunk already. And he told Dennis not to let me drink, stupid boy.
"I don't want to drink Kev"
"Boring!" he shouted. I rolled my eyes. I wanna dance, alone. Not with Arthur, not with Dennis, alone. I stand up, Arthur looked at me. "Where?" he asked. I looked at him. "To dance floor" i said.
Arthurs legs are preventing me from leaving. "Can you... let me please" i said and point his legs with my eyes. He pulled his legs back. I took a step and felt Arthur's hand on my waist. He thought that people here didn't know that we had broken up. So he did what he used to do. I left them and went to dance floor.
Arthurs POV
"Didn't you guys broke up?" i heard Lando's voice. I turned to him. How they know? Did she just said? "How do you know"
"Kevin blunder out" Charles said. Oh Kevin! Why can't you hide a secret? "And we are wondering why?" Oscar said. "I was thinking you would die without her" and joked.
"Just... we couldn't make this anymore" i cut off. "Yeah, if you don't let her do anything without you, of course thing won't work out" Lando said. "What? I've never made rules"
"Yeah, sure. You didn't let her going vocation with her friends" Kevin said. Can you just shut up Kev?
"You made a big mistake Arthur. She is young and wants to live her life. But you don't want her living life without you. You broke up, but you still don't want to" Charles said. Really? All the fault is mine?
"But we were dating"
"Arthur, she won't forgive you. She is ready for her 'new' life. And you're not in it" Dennis said. Who the fuck are you? You're into her, i know it. But please, don't think you will be in her 'new' life.
I rolled my eyes and stand uo. I wanna drink something. I left them and went to bar. I stare at Lily. She's happy, without me. This was my biggest fear. They are right. I didn't let her do anything. If she wanted she would, but she didn't. Because she didn't want me to feel betrayed. She did all the things for me. She moved to Monaco for me. And i get mad for she's going New York. I'm a terrible boyfriend, i hate myself for this. She deserved better.
Lily's POV
I love dance, but i new drink something. I went to bar. Arthur was there. He stared at me. "Can we talk?" he asked. I turned to him. He looks sad. "About what?"
"I want to say sorry, Lily. I ruined your life. I'm sorry, now you're free. I was afraid you'd be happy without me"
"Arthur, everything is over. It doesn't matter"
"No... no, you are too perfect for me. I'm really sorry, mon amour. I ruined everything" he said and started to cry. I get closer to him. He closed his eyes, i put my hand on his cheek. "Don't cry, Arthur" i said. I'm losing my feelings for him. But his crying hurts me. "Please, please don't call me by my name"
"Okay" i said softly. He's drunk. He put his hands to my waist and open his eyes. "I need you, one last time" he said
I wiped his tears and hugged him.
Charles POV
They're so close to each other. I hate it. They broke up, why still close that much? Arthur is crying, for her. You ruined, man. Leave her, she deserve better. Lily hugged her, fuck. I have to stop them. They cannot reconcile.
"Ohh! Look who is hugging!" Lando shouted. Everyone turned them. "Look Dennis, Lily is forgiven" Carlos said and laught. Okay, that's enough. I stand up and walked towards them. Lily saw me. They slowly stop hugging.
"Arthur you need to go" i said. He looked at me with a frown. "Why?" he asked. "You're drunk" i said. He put his head on Lily's chest. His hand is still on her waist.
"Arthur you need to go, i'm being serious. Carlos is leaving, go with him" i said.
"But who'll take my love? I can not let Dennis" he said. He called her my love. Wish i could. Lily looked at my eyes. Her green eyes... all i want. "I can take her to hotel"
He looked up to Lily. "Yes, he can, don't worry" she said. Arthur pulled his head out of Lily's chest. I put my hand on his shoulder.
"Carlos!" i called Carlos. He came slowly "What do you want mate?" he asked. "Can you take Arthur to hotel?" i asked him. He looked at Arthur and noticed that he's drunk. "Fine, come on Arthur" he said and put his hand on Arthur's shoulder. They slowly went.
I looked at Lily, she's looking. "He hasn't moved on yet" she said. "It will take time" i said. "Do you want a drink?" i asked to her. She smiled and nodded.
"Excuse me, can i take 2 tequila?" i said to barman. He nodded and give us 2 tequila, then left us alone. "How do you know i love tequila?" she asked and turned to me. "Kevin said that few minutes ago" i said ang chuckle. "Oh, right" she said and took a sip of her drink. I did same.
"Did you find who sent you flower?" i did it. I completly drank my drink.
"No" she said. "Are there no suspects?" i asked.
"Arthur thinking that's Dennis, but... i don't think that's Dennis" she said. Of course he is not, i am. "He thinking Dennis loves me" she said. Loves you? No, no, Arthur was enough for me. I don't want one more.
"Everyone likes you" i said, this is true. Everyone finds her attractive. She chuckle "I don't think so" how could you think that? Youre so pretty, mon amour. She took another sip of her drink.
"No, everyone do. Believe me if Arthur didn't, someone would do" i said. She looked me confused. "You deserve someone loves you"
"Charles, your brother did"
"It hasn't enough" i said. She turned to barman "Hey, can i get 5 shot, please?" she said and barman nodded. He came and take her 5 shot.
"You're not going to drink it all, are you?" i asked. "Yep, i will" she said and take a shot. "I need to clear my mind"
"I can't let you" i said. She looked at me with frown. "Who are you, my dad?" she said and took another shot. Wish i could be someone for you.
.
Lily drank too much. I tryed to stop her but she didn't let me.
"Lily, it's time to go" i said. "No!" she shouted. She went to dance floor. I watched her dance. Wish i would be Arthur. I love her more than Arthur do.
I walked toward to Lily. "Lily, we need to go" i said. She looked at me. "Charles! I wanna dance" she said.
"I see, but please" i said. We need to go, it's 2 o'clock. "Fine" she said and rolled her eyes. I hold her wrist. We slowly left.
"Charles, be slow. I can't follow you" she said and stop. I turned around, carry her. She put her head on my neck. I waited this moment for years. I opened car door while she was in my arms. I put her inside carefully. I close the door and walked to driver seat. I get in the car.
"I've forgotten roses" she said. "What roses?" i asked. She isn't telling her about what I bought, guess? "The roses that Arthur bought me" she said and turned her head to me.
"I'll buy you new roses, promise" i said. I want to buy her a lot of thing.
We arrived to hotel and i get out of the car. I opened car door and carried Lily. I can feel her breath on my neck. I get into elevator. "When will you... buy me flower... again" she said softly. Again?
"What do you mean?" i asked and elevator door opened. I get out, walked toward to my hotelroom.
"You sent me flowers, right?" she said while looking into my eyes. How could she know that? "No" i said and opened door.
"I know you did, Charles" she said and giggle. I close the door and walked towards to bed. I put her to bed. She put her hand to my neck to stay close. Our eyes met. "Sometimes... sometimes i see something different in your eyes" she said and smiled.
"I always see it in your eyes" i said. "I feel that... but i ignore it" she knows, she always did. "I didn't want to see that, i felt scared"
"Why?" i asked. She always knew but why didn't show? Just why?
"I didn't want to make it messy for you and Arthur" she said and close her eyes.
"Do you love me?"
"I don't know"
"That's not a answer"
"You're attractive, Charles. I feel that you have an effect on me"
"Lily, please tell me... tell me that you love me"
"I don't know" she said and take her hand back. She slept.
I can't believe it now. This should be a dream. She knows that i love her. She just keep it a secret. And... and she may have feelings for me.
I lay down next to her and close my eyes. Please, please don't be a dream.
