As you boarded the private jet bound for Azerbaijan, you settled into the luxurious surroundings, still unaware of the surprise awaiting you. The excitement of the journey ahead filled the air as the engines roared to life and the plane soared into the sky. Charles sat in front of you, Charlotte was there too, you were glad she could come. Suddenly, the cabin door opened, and in walked Carlos, a smile lighting up his face. Shocked and pleasantly surprised, you couldn't help but feel a surge of happiness. Carlos took a seat next to you.

-Are you ready for this long flight? -He asked.

-Not really. I just want to sleep through it. -You smiled, your heart was beating so fast.

-It's great that you made it, Carlos. -Charles said. -I thought at this point we were going to see you at the hotel.

-I know! I was going to fly tomorrow but it is better to travel with good company. -He looked at you.

-I must admit, I'm a little anxious about this. -Charlotte said and Charles took her hand. -I've never been to a race before, and I'm not sure what to expect.

-Oh my God Charlotte, it is pretty exciting, I'll show you everything! You will enjoy it, I promise. -You said.

-I'm excited to experience it with you, Charles. I want to support you every step of the way.

-Get a room! -Carlos yelled and everyone laughed.

-In fact we will. -Charles smiled mischievously and went towards the little cabin with a bed, they shot the door and you and Carlos were left alone.

As the plane took off, you found yourself seated next to Carlos, creating an opportunity for a conversation. With a smile, you turned to him.

-So, Carlos, I didn't expect to see you on this flight.

-Well, funny story, when I found out you were going with Charles I packed my bags and here I am. -He giggled.

-I appreciate that, I was going to be a third wheel if you didn't come.

-I thought Lando was coming with you too.

-I'll see him there, he was still in London.

-Oh I see, well, it's a long flight Y/n...

-Yeah it is. Let's just enjoy this trip.

After a few hours into the flight, Charles and Charlotte decided to join you and Carlos in the seating area. The four of you gathered together, exchanging smiles and friendly greetings.

-Hey, guys! How's everyone doing? Excited for the race in Baku?

-Definitely! It's my first time here, so I'm looking forward to experiencing the atmosphere. -You nodded.

-I'm excited too. -Charlotte said.

-You'll get to witness the incredible skills of us drivers and feel the excitement in the air. -Carlos said to her.

-Well guys, you'll have to excuse me but I'm really tired, I'm going to bed. -You stood up and walked towards the bed, you closed the door and laid down.

A few minutes later, Carlos quietly entered, you noticed and turned to him.

-What are you doing? -You whispered.

-I'm sorry, were you already sleeping?

-Not really.

-Do you mind if I lay down with you? I also need to get some sleep.

-Of course not. -You tapped the bed with your hand.

He reached out and brushed a strand of hair away from your face, his touch light and delicate. You pulled away, you saw a mix of disappointment and understanding flickering across his face. You remained locked in a silent gaze, your eyes speaking volumes of unspoken emotions. As you continued to lock eyes, you could feel a magnetic pull drawing you closer together. It was as if an invisible force was gently guiding your hearts towards one another, erasing the physical distance that separated you. With each passing moment, the intensity of your connection grew stronger, fueling a desire that could no longer be ignored. You could feel your heart racing, matching the rhythm of his as they moved closer, your breaths becoming intertwined. Time seemed to suspend, the world around you fading into insignificance as you focused solely on the electricity that charged the air between them. You were just a mere millimeter away from kissing, the tension palpable in the air. The anticipation and desire were so strong that it felt as if the entire universe held its breath, waiting for that connection to be sealed. You chose to pull away thinking about Lando, you turned around and Carlos wrapped his arms around you, pulling you closer. You could feel his steady heartbeat against your back, you closed your eyes and felt a kiss on your cheek.

-Just a false start if you're quitting on us. -You opened your eyes.

-There's no start, there's no quitting on anything, I'm taken, now sleep, please.

-If you ever want to bet on us, if you ever want to be my one, I'll be waiting. -His words were filled with sincerity.

-I need some time to sort out my feelings and the complexities of my current situation. I can't promise anything.

You and Carlos drifted into a peaceful sleep, finding solace in each other's presence. Hours later, as the plane descended towards your destination, you slowly awakened, stretching and rubbing the sleep from their eyes.
