Charles' PoV:
You check your watch; 17:40. You head across the paddock to return to Ferrari. You pass by Lando chatting to a blonde girl - Okay, you have to tease him right now and check up on his progress...
You circle back and you wrap your arm around his shoulder.
Charles: Hey!
Lando: Heyy man-
X : Oh my God, Hi...
You give her a flirty smile - Cause you can, and cause it will piss him off - She giggles in response.
Charles: Ma chérie, would you mind giving me a moment with Lando here?
You tap his shoulder, before removing your arm. She nods swiftly.
X : Of course Charles... Anything for you...
You chuckle - Sometimes the responses you get are hilarious. Lando's brows are lifted, waiting for her to be out of earshot.
Charles smiles: She's cute...
He nods.
Charles seriously: But she's not my sister... Have you given up already?
He starts laughing.
Lando: No way! I haven't...
Charles smirks: Did you even make a move on her?
He smiles.
Lando: Well, I did...
Charles: And?
She definitely rejected him. You know it. There's no way in hell that y/n would actually indulge in a guy like Lando.
Lando annoyed: She wasn't interested in lunch, and turned me down-
Charles: Ha! I told you so-
Lando scoffs: Slow down, I'm not finished yet... But I'll get her to agree to a date eventually. So she doesn't eat lunch... That's fine... Then she'll agree to dinner, or something else... She was into me, I sensed it... When she wasn't distracted that is...
What does he mean with "when she wasn't distracted"? You ignore it.
Charles smirks: She'll never agree... You know, you can also just give up, and ask the cute blonde for a date, I'm sure she'd agree immediately...
Lando chuckles: Nah man, I know what I want... And I still have till Sunday, so let me do my thing...
You talk to him for a couple more minutes, before you continue on down the paddock. When you pass the blonde, you wink at her.
---
You head towards y/n's office. When you enter the building, you can already hear her chipper laughter from down the hallway. Their office is conveniently directly next to the entrance... After a quick knock you're called in. Y/n's smile slowly fades when you come in, while her colleague's, who you think is called Kim, brightens.
Charles smiles: What's so funny?
Kim laughs: Lando asked her out, and she rejected him...
