It Started with a Song || charles leclerc

It's about time

Y/n: "Oh... Right..."

P: "I just got a fright. I think we all do when we see a bad crash."
Y/n: "Still. I'm so sorry. I didn't even think of Anthoine... are you alright?"
P: "Oh yeah, I'm fine. You were worried about Charles; it's not your fault. That's all that mattered today, was him."

Pierre and Y/n spoke for about half an hour before the doctor came out. Charles was cleared to go home and was allowed to resume racing on condition he rested this week. Y/n took him back to their hotel room that night. Despite everything that had happened, she still felt it was right to tell everyone the truth about them.

"Hey Charles? I was wondering... seeing as we're all over social media because of arriving together, would you want to go public? Like officially?"

"Y/n, I have wanted to tell the world about you since our first date!"

"Really? Well let's post it then!"

They both posted the same photo; each with their own captions:

C: "Well, the world knows now."
Y/n: "Yeah..."
Y/n's phone started beeping, all from Instagram.
Y/n: "Wow, so many new followers and messages now."
Charles saw the unsure look on her face...
C: "Y/n, look at me. The fans will love you, the guys would tell you the same thing. Just promise me one thing: Don't open DMs please. If you really want to, let me be with you."
Y/n: "Charles, I know I'll get some people giving me their say but don't worry; and I promise."
C: "Thank you. Now, mon amour, how about we watch a movie."
Y/n: "I love that idea."
