One shots Formula One

Surprise! (Carlos Sainz)

This is the request from StellaHarding I hope that this is what you had in mind :) I really enjoyed writing this one. Enjoy!

Carlos looked around once more, looking for the girl who stole his heart, but again he couldn't see you.
  "Hey mate, she'll be here." Carlos' teammate, Daniil said. Carlos exhaled and shrugged his shoulders. The race would start in only one-and-a-half hours and it was a forty minute drive and with the current traffic, because of the race, it would take more than an hour, you didn't even called him to tell him you landed safely, so there was no way you could be on time. Carlos was quite disappointed, but he was sure you would have a valid explanation for missing at least the start of the race. It was safe to say Carlos was not convinced you would be there. He started to get ready to get into his car, he would deal with this later.

You run through the airport towards your drive. Your plane had been delayed and now you were late. Carlos' father had offered you a drive to the track of Catalunya, since your boyfriend and his son had to drive there. It was his second season and his second home grand prix. You were so proud of him and had promised him you would be on time, but since there had been some technical issues with the plane, you had to hurry now. Luckily your bags came out rather soon and you could make your way to Carlos senior, who was waiting for you. You quickly greeted him with a hug and he took over your trunk.
  "I'm so sorry, my flight was delayed..." You said, trying to catch your breath.
  "It is okay. Now move it, we could still make it on time." You smiled at the thought of seeing your boyfriend again and seeing him race again, something you couldn't that often. With a high pace you walked through the airport with Carlos Senior. When you arrived at his car you got in in the passengers-seat and when he got in too he started the car and drove off. There was a lot of traffic on the road, but you made it on time. Before Carlos Senior could even park his car properly you had already jumped out and ran towards the grid. At that point Carlos got into his car and his last hope of you showing up had disappeared. You could never be on time anymore. You hadn't text him yet that your plane landed safely. You ran as fast as you could and just before the grid would be cleared from engineers, press and all those people you just say Carlos' car and a huge smile was visible on your face. Carlos just put his visor down and looked in front of him, but from the corner of his eye he thought he had seen you, but when he looked you were gone. You had just decided to go to the Toro Rosso garage to watch the race from there, not knowing that Carlos thought at that moment that he was crazy, seeing this that weren't there. The warming up lap started as you placed on of the headphones on. Carlos started eight on the grid and would start next to Valteri Bottas in the Williams. They stopped on the grid again and you were super nervous. You knew how much Carlos wanted a good result. The lights went on one by one and when they turned of again you bit your lip. You always were the most nervous with the start, all those cars packed up together, all wanting the best spot as possible. Fortunately Carlos was still in one piece when they came through the first corners, then suddenly the car of Lewis Hamilton went of track and took Nico Rosberg's car with him. For the two of them the race was over and this brought possibilities for the drivers behind them. And at the same time Carlos overtook Sebastian Vettel, resulting in a temporarily third place behind his former team-mate. With some quick math, which wasn't that hard at all, you calculated that if he could keep his grid-position he would end up being sixth, a real good achievement! Along the race you were biting your fingernails and tapping with your feet on the ground.  Carlos was overtaken by the Ferraris, which didn't surprise you and Bottas, but still sixth place was amazing. When they passed the finish-line you jumped up along all the people in Carlos' garage. Everybody was so happy with the final result and they would be celebrating till late you expected. When a few moments later, Carlos arrived in the garage your smile only became bigger. The black haired Spaniard took of his helmet and jumped along with his engineers. He had his back towards you so you walked up to him and when he stood still for a moment you placed your arms around his waist and your head on his shoulder.
  "I am so proud of you." You whispered in his ear and Carlos spun around as fast as he could. To say he was surprised was an understatement. You laughed and nod, knowing what Carlos thought. "Yes I didn't text you, but I was late and didn't have the time if I wanted to be here at the start of the race." Carlos kissed you and you placed your arms around his neck.
  "So I did see you just before the race." He said and shook his head. "I thought I was going crazy." You kiss him softly.
  "You are not going crazy." He chuckles and than lets you go to receive all the congratulations. You looked at him from a small distance. He looked so happy that his eyes were sparkling. His hair was messed up because of his helmet and it was slightly wet because of his sweat. Even though he was busy with his own business you were absolutely enjoying yourself, you loved Formula One yourself too and loved everything around it, but mostly the youngest Spanish driver on the grid.
