Lock Up ⏐Charles Leclerc

Chapter 50

Happy 50 chapters!!!!! Wow, I can't believe we've reached this point of the story with so many of you. It's only been about a month and three weeks (from what I recall) and I'm incredibly thankful for all the support you guys have expressed in this book.

I would like to dedicate this chapter to @footballouis for making this absolute masterpiece of a cover 🤍 I wasn't used to getting messages on Wattpad so it took me a few hours to see her message 😂 It perfectly captured the plot of the story and I'm grateful for the effort she has put into it since I would never be able to make something as beautiful as this.

We're only halfway with the plot so I'm expecting we'll probably have about thirty to fifty more chapters to go.

Enjoy!

I don't know why going to Lake Como would mean that we'd be staying away from any parties for the near future.

Nope. I was definitely wrong.

Combine the party personalities of Daniel, Pierre, and Milo, it was inevitable that I'd be finding myself inside a bar on a Wednesday night. Since it was the summer break, we weren't the only ones making the most out of the vacation. I was wearing a pale green dress that ended just by my thighs, thin straps hanging from my shoulders. The top part had a cutout that showed off a hint of my abs before the bottom part of the dress flared out.

It was our second to the last night before we headed down to Tuscany. The past few days, we've spent every chance we could doing as much activities possible. We rented some jet skis and paddle boards, most of which resulted in very amusing pictures of us falling into the water. We also took advantage of the downtime from our hectic lives, sleeping in until ten in the morning and only starting the day after having brunch.

"Babe!" Milo called me, not giving me a chance to speak as he grabbed my hand and pulled me to the dance floor. "I can't believe you're turning twenty three in a few hours." He said in amazement as we stopped near Ace and Yuki who were doing some very weird dance moves. Milo said that as if he wasn't twenty three right now and turning twenty four in November but like he said, my birthday was about to begin in two hours.

"How drunk are you?" I giggled and Milo spread his arms wide, head leaning back. He almost hit a waitress that was walking around with a tray of drinks but she managed to dodge his wrist.

"You need to be as drunk as me." He said and grabbed the bottle of tequila that Daniel was holding nearby, bringing it up to my face. I scrunched my face up in disgust at the smell and pushed it back, Milo frowning. "Come on, babe." Milo groaned and drank straight from the bottle, flashing me a grin afterwards.

"I don't want to start my birthday with a hangover tomorrow."

"Fair point." He agreed. His eyes moved to something behind me and once again, Milo grabbed my wrist before dragging me throughout the club. "I do know a drink you'd like." I looked at him curiously and peeked over his shoulder to see him heading towards the direction of Charles, Pierre, and Navi. Aurora, Leo, Heidi, and Elliana were by the table and drinking shots, resting their feet since they had just come back from the dance floor.

"Well, hello there." Navi smirked at us as she wrapped an arm around my shoulder.

"Save me. Milo has been pushing me to get drunk on tequila." I told her but my voice wasn't low enough for Milo to miss.

"Babe, that's why we're here." He smirked and I didn't like that look on his face one bit. "I believe Charles is holding a bottle of vodka and from what I recall, vodka doesn't give you hangovers."
