Forever and always

Chapter fifteen

Olivia's pov:

May 2021

After the Portuguese grand prix, Max flew directly to Spain where the next race was taking place. It was back to back race week. I flew home to Monaco as I had a lot of work to catch up on, I had a few photo jobs and some campaigns I had to do, then I had a few interviews with a magazine because they wanted to give me a page in the magazine, which was huge for me! They asked if I wanted to talk about my life as a daughter and sister of f1 drivers, while being a very successful influencer while pursuing a career as a photographer. It was a great opportunity for me so I of course agreed, it was a great experience, and I can't wait to see how it turns out.

I watched the race from home, and it was good. Max finished second again, and Charles managed to get p4 which he seemed to be very happy about. Charles and I haven't seen each other since Portugal, so I was getting to a point where I missed him. We have talked a few times but it's just not the same. But luckily he comes home from Spain tomorrow, then I will definitely see him!. I still haven't confessed my love to him, but I think I'm gonna do it sometime soon, I'm just so scared.

The day went by fast as I just worked the entire day, and now it was tuesday which meant Charles was coming back home to Monaco. Max was flying straight to the United Kingdom, where he had to go to the red bull factory, for a few important things, so he wasn't coming home until a few days.

Charles and I had agreed that he would come straight to my apartment, so I was just wandering around waiting for him to knock on the door. I had been tidying up my apartment all day, and when I finally sat down on my couch to relax a bit, I heard a knock on the door. I then almost jumped up from the couch and walked towards the door. I opened it and there he was, he was standing there with a huge smile and looked cute as ever.

"God I have missed you!" he said as he saw me. "You have no idea" I said then we walked inside and I closed the door. He put down the suitcase and walked closer to me, our lips touched which was something I had really missed. And really it had only been a week or so.

His arms were around me and mine was around him, we stood there hugging for a while, it felt good being in his arms again. "I gotta say something!" he said and looked into my eyes. "Yeah? what is it?" I asked looking into his eyes, I couldn't read them which made me worried. "let's sit down.." he said and together we walked to the couch.

He took my hands so we held hands. He looked at me while smiling. "Olivia, I completely understand if it's too early for you and if you don't feel the same way, but I have to tell you.. I'm in love with you!" he said smiling, he looked a bit nervous. I smiled big and almost had a tiny tear in my eye, I can't believe this, he loves me?.

"It's fine Charles, I'm in love with you too!" I said. "Wow! I haven't stopped thinking about you, and this past week not being able to see you just confirmed how much I'm in love with you" .. "I couldn't agree more!" I said and moved so I was sitting on this lap, our heads facing each other. "God women, have you any idea of what you're doing to me?" he said, bringing his head closer to mine. "Of course, do you like it?" I asked as our heads were now touching. "You know I do!" he said before our lips connected and shared a long and perfect kiss.

Time flew by as we were watching a movie. Charles was exhausted after race week and a day with travel. I was also a bit exhausted from all the cleaning and the work I did today, so a movie night was what we both needed. We were watching a Harry Potter movie, since we both really like those movies. We were laying on the couch while watching the movie. Charles had his arms wrapped around me the whole time, even though the couch was really big we were laying as close as we could, which was extremely comfortable.

With only 45 minutes left of the movie I was getting very hungry and it was also late, so I then decided to make some dinner. Charles had fallen asleep; he looked so cute and peaceful. I put a blanket over him and walked to the kitchen where I started making dinner.
