Of course!
and completely missed the mark 😭

Stand By Me
"And Charles Leclerc is the winner of the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix and subsequently the 2023 Champion of the World!"
Cheers rung through out the Ferrari Garage, more so all around you. As you gripped your headphones tighter than before as you watched your boyfriend cross the line, swerving left and right.
Following in his lead, fellow team-mate Carlos and Max. The first Ferrari 1-2 since 22' Bahrain.
In that moment it was all worth it.
The frustrations, struggles and pain of the last few years, the DNFs, the engine problems, miscommunication, everything.
It didn't matter.

You, nor any Ferrari employee had managed to wipe the ginormous grin on all of your faces, these smiles would've, (according to Lando) put the Cheshire Cat to shame.
Charles stood proudly on top of his championship winning vehicle as he celebrated by drawing a bow and arrow and shooting off into the distance before covering his eyes as if looking into the sun to see it off.
He jumped down and rushed to the rowdy red team as shouts and compliments surrounded him.
Now don't get him wrong.
He loved the support and congratulations he was receiving but they weren't exactly coming from the person he wanted to hear it from.
The second you came into his field of vision, Charles swallowed you entirely with his bear hug. "For you. Mi amor for us!"
"I know Charles, I'm so proud, you have no idea. I love you so much mon chou." You rambled as you pressed your lips to his.

You and Charles were driving to Pascales home.
It had been three days since your very own boyfriend, Charles Leclerc himself, stood proudly on the top of the podium. Clutching his trophe so tightly as if he feared it would run away.
That night was not something any Ferarri member would have remembered in the slightest inkling.
That night was a blur of love, cheers, champagne, skinny dipping off a boat and fireworks as well as noise complaints.
Right afterwards you organized the dinner with Charles and his family knowing they wanted to see him even though Charles had already told you, that the pair off you guys would go together to visit anyway.
You were zoned out as you felt Charles's hand resting comfortably on the inside of your thigh as it drew you back in.
"Tu vas bien?" - Are you okay?
"Yeah, just thinking about this week."
"Oh yeah? Any specific parts? Perhaps our bedroom last sunday?" Charles joked as your smacked his arm.
"No you idiot, I'm just proud of you."
"Merci chérie, je n'aurais pas pu le faire sans toi."
Thank you honey, I couldn't have done it without you.

The door opened and revealed a beaming Prema Driver in an ugly christmas sweater.
"Maman me l'a fait porter. Don't even."
Mom made me wear it.
Speaking of the woman, "Charles!" she squealed as she hugged her son before turning her attention to you. "Y/n, it's been too long mon amour."
"Hi Mrs Leclerc! How are you?"
"Good, I'm having fun, watching my boys, being healthy and doing my job. Its a peaceful life and I love it."
"That sounds amazing, I know who I'm going to for my next haircut then huh?" You joked.
"Yes you do. I'm happy and eating well."
"I told you not to lie with family Maman. I saw you eating the oreos!" Enzo joked as he also welcomed you and Charles "Oh shush Lorenzo, come this way dinner's outside, but close your eyes Y/n."

You were promptly blindfolded and lead outside where you suddenly stopped, all you could hear was bickering in a language incomprehensible to you. Italian maybe? Definitely not French was all you could tell.
"Y/n."
Was all you heard before the blindfold was taken off and you swore then and there you fell in love, forever, permanently.
Charles was standing in front of you, on one knee, with a ring box in hand.
"Cha-"
"Ma fille, je ne te remercierais jamais assez de m'avoir aidé à traverser ces années difficiles. Tu es restée à mes côtés pendant toutes ces années. Tu m'as toléré, aidé, nourri, soigné quand j'étais trop brisé pour le faire moi-même. L'année dernière a été ma pire, et tu m'as aidé à traverser ça avec facilité. Tu m'as soutenu quand j'avais l'impression de n'avoir personne. Quand c'était le monde contre moi, tu me rappelais toujours que je n'étais jamais seul. Alors s'il te plaît bébé, épouse-moi.
Tiens toi a mes côtès pour toujours."
TRANSLATION:
My girl, I could never thank you enough for helping me through these tough years. You've stuck by my side for all these years. You tolerated me, helped me, fed me, cared for me when I was to broken to do so myself. Last year was my worst, and you helped me through it with ease. You stood by me when I felt like I had no one. When it was the world against me you always reminded me I was never alone. So please baby, marry me.
Stand by me, forever.

"You have no clue how long I've been waiting for this Charles. I've known you since we were kids and I've loved you longer than I've known.
Yes! A million times, Yes!"
He promptly slipped the gorgeous and obviously expensive ring on your finger before scooping you up in his arms and spinning the two of you around. As his brothers and mother shouted in excitement and happiness.
As it all settled down you looked up at your boyfriend of 5 years and bestfriend of 19.
"Je t'aime tellement mon ange." Charles whispered into your ear before kissing your neck.
"Je t'aime Charlie."
