Carlos' pov
"Cheese!"
After taking a couple pictures, Sofia thanks me as she steps away from my side and kneels down to talk to Beatriz.
"Okay, Bumblebee, I'm sure Mr. Carlos has things to do before he has to get ready for the race." I frown as Sofia says this not wanting her to leave. For some reason the thought of her leaving upsets me. I've never felt this way about someone I've barely met. Not even Isa.
"Where are you guys watching the race from?" I ask.
"McLaren's invited us." Sofia replies.
"Oh nice." I say.
"Carlos we have to go now." Rupert interrupts.
"Okay," I say a little disappointed. And then I remember that there will be an after party tonight. I was gonna go with Lando but this seems the perfect opportunity.
"Hey, are you doing anything after the race?" I ask Sofia causing her to look at me curiously.
"No why?"
"Well, there's going to be an after party at a club and I was wondering if you were going?"
"Oh yeah, Kelly mentioned something about that." She said while Beatriz was swinging her hand looking around at the people passing by.
"Kelly?" Does she mean Max's Kelly? I ask wondering if it was the Kelly I was thinking of.
"Yeah, Kelly Piquet, she's one of my best friends." She says with a smile. Cute.
"Oh, but yes are you going?"
"I was thinking about it." She says causing me to smile.
"Well hopefully I'll see you there." I say with a smirk causing her to blush.
"O-okay, Bea, say bye to Carlos. We have to go now." Sofia says picking Beatriz up into her arms.
"Bye Carlos!!" Beatriz says giving me a wave.
I can't help but watch as they walk away. Despite just meeting her, there's something about Sofia that captivates me.
"Carlos," Rupert's voice breaks me out of my head. I turn to him to see that he is staring at me with a smirk on his face. "You okay there man, you seem a little starstruck?"
"Fuck off mate." I say causing him to cackle.
"Okay, well let's go we have to start warming up."
*Time skip*
The race was great with Max in P1 and Charles and I in P2 & P3. As I make my way to the after party with Lando, I can't help but think of Sofia. I wonder if she'll come. I hope she will.
"Carlos!" Lando's voice breaks my thought.
"Yeah." I reply causing him to laugh.
"You were spacing out man! What were you thinking about? Was it that girl you told me about?"
"No." I said quickly, too quickly because he just raised his eyebrows at me.
"Okay, yes. I don't know Lando, she's just stuck in my head. There's just something about her that is different."
"Mate, you met her once for like five minutes! Maybe you just need to get laid? I mean it's been 2 months since you and Isa broke up mate!"
"I don't know Lando, maybe."
