The Only One

Chapter 21 - Get to Know You

Los Angeles
Lizzie POV

As we're driving to our destination, I couldn't help but notice that we've seemed to have found our selves on a quiet hidden road side.

And of course the one idea pops into my mind, after all I'm in the car with the worlds number one formula1 driver, it would be stupid not to ask this.

"I think it's all talk" I begin to tease as I keep my focus out at the view on my side of the car.

"What is?" She asks me curiously at my sudden words.

"The whole 'your number one in the world' talk, I haven't really seen it, so I don't believe it" I tease trying my hardest not to let my smile show through as I spare a glance at her shocked face.

"Oh you think it's all talk?" She laughs out quirking a brow at me as if to ask if I'm serious.

I nod my head humming a yes as I watch her face form into a devilish smirk.

"I'll show you it ain't talk" She says confidently as she begins to change gear of the car before ramming it at full speed making me hit the back of my head flat against the head rest surprising me with the sudden impact.

She's quick to show her skills as we begin to approach tight corners of the road which she easily glides through like it's nothing.

And at the far distance I notice a swarm of cars on the road ahead of us, that we seem to be speeding towards at a dangerous rate.

As we appear behind the cars within seconds I jolt my hands out clutching on to anything to hold my self down as fear starts to grow at the speed we're going at around these cars.

But continuing to prove me wrong, she starts to zoom in and out of each car with such ease that there's no sudden jolts of movement from quick turns or change of speed, only the feeling of smoothly going past each one.

Now coming to a much busier road with little traffic, she begins to slow down and bring the car back into normal speed.

I look over and see the same smugy smirk on her face as she keeps her eyes fixated on the road.

"You were saying?" She says turning her head and giving me a challenging look.

I shake my head and gently push her face a way from me as we both smile, and can hear the faint sound of a chuckle coming from her.

"Ok...maybe you aren't all talk" I mumble out avoiding her eyes.

"I'm sorry what was that?" She asks with a cheeky smile even though I know full well she heard me.

"Oh shut up" I huff out with a bigger smile in my face.

She chuckles louder this time, wallowing in her victory before she slowly pulls up to a large building.

I'm highly confused as this is clearly not a home but a facility of some sort.

As she parks and takes her seat belt off, I give her a confused look "uh where are we?" I ask as I begin to follow suit and take my seat belt off too.

"Getting coffee" she says nonchalantly as if it was an obvious answer, before getting out of the car and walking round to my side opening the door for me.

As I step out and give her thankful yet confused smile, I then avert my eyes to the buildings large sign outside that I seem to have missed when coming in.

"Tartine Coffee Manufactory?" I read out loud as I hear her shut and lock the car, before giving a hum confirming what I said.

I then shoot my eyes back down to meet hers furrowing my brows at her "You actually meant make our own coffee?!" I ask now clicking together for what she has planned.
