Part 2 Chapter 1
As
Chloe sat on the plane on her way to Montreal in Canada, she had questions
flying through her head, some she knew she couldn’t answer, and some that she
needed others to answer for her. She couldn’t wait to land but and see the
three people that made her happy, well and sad, the last time she was there. She
had fallen in love with brothers, Matt and Jeff, and Amy had become a close
friend, kind of like the person you can tell all your problems to. Last time she
had been there she had met them and she hit it of with them very well, she got
close to Matt and Jeff. Matt let her go so she could be happy with Jeff but she
couldn’t stop loving Matt, she had spent a night with him and they had made
love in his locker room. And that was another of her problems, when she and matt
made love, they were to full of passion to think about protection, and she
became pregnant, she found out a week earlier when she went to the doctors
because she was late and she didn’t trust home pregnancy tests, she was
shocked, she didn’t know what to do, she was hopefully still going to be with
Jeff but she was pregnant with his brothers baby. She knew what would happen,
Jeff would figure out it wasn’t his because they had never slept together. She
feared he would leave her. A knot grew tighter in her stomach, she just wished
her and Matt were more careful and then she wouldn’t be in this mess. It was
only going to effect her love life but she knew she couldn’t keep driving for
Williams if she was pregnant, they would never let her, even if she screamed and
screamed at them. She would lose the chance of a lifetime, to drive for
Williams, in a sport that had never had a woman driver and she would never get
the chance again. She grew more tense and nervous, she pulled her knees up onto
the seat and buried he head in them, tears ran down her cheeks as she sobbed at
the thought of losing her job and Jeff.
“Come
on Matt, what gate are we supposed to meet her at?” Jeff asked his brother as
they stood in the middle of the airport starring at the bored with the flight
times on.
“She’s
on flight CA5754 so she should be at gate 26a in about 10 minutes.” He replied
looking around for the gate sign. He spotted it and led Jeff and Amy over to it,
they all sat down and waited.
They
sat in an awkward silence, Jeff could feel how un-easy Matt was, he knew how
much he loved Chloe and he let him have her because he thought she loved him
more. But then he knew how happy him and Chloe would be, he had never met anyone
like her, she was beautiful, smart, funny and she knew how to live life, she
took risks when she was driving and she could pull of some moves in the ring. He
smiled as he thought of her.
Matt
on the other hand, sat with his arms resting on his knees, was thinking about
how he was going to cope with Jeff and Chloe, he couldn’t help thinking he was
going to regret what he did, but he knew that Jeff loved her and he knew he
would never hurt her, he couldn’t think of anything he wanted more than his
brother to be happy. He just didn’t want Chloe to feel awkward around him, he
knew if she did that it would crush him, he couldn’t take that.
“That
must be her plane.” Amy said startling them, they all got to there feet and
waited. Jeff stood near the gate but Matt stood back a bit, Amy stood in between
them with a big grin in her face. “I wondered if she missed us, she doesn’t
know we are even picking her up!!!” She said becoming even more excited.
The
gate door opened and out everyone came, they studied the crowd of people until
they finally saw her wearing a white baseball cap. Jeff walked over to her and
pulled her arm, making her jump, they stepped out of the rush and embraced each
other, she dropped her hand luggage and buried her head into his neck, they
stayed there for a second before she pulled away, she walked over to Amy and
gave her a hug then, she walked up to Matt and threw her arms around his neck,
he put his arms around her as he watched Jeff watching him from the corner of
his eye. He let her go.
“I
didn’t think you guys would be here!!” she said pulling her clothes back
into place, she walked back near Jeff and picked her bag up of the floor. “I
better go get my luggage.” She said as she felt Jeff wrap his arm around her
waist. They followed Matt and Amy who led them to baggage claim. She stood by
Jeff as she waited for her cases, she spotted one coming down, it wasn’t like
she could miss it coz it was white and stood out like a saw thumb, she grabbed
it as it came past Jeff helped her. He took it and stood it by his side, she
pulled of the second case and she stood impatiently waiting for the third, Jeff
spotted it and grabbed it as it went past. She carried one case and he carried
the other two. When they got back to Matt and Amy they headed for the exit. Matt
took the case of her, she and Amy then walked out side arm in arm, gossiping
about what they had been up to.
Matt
opened the boot of his car and placed all three suitcases in, they all got in
the car.
“Where
have you got to go?” Matt asked as he started the engine.
“I
am supposed to be at the circuit in about 20 minutes, so there I guess.”
“Any
idea which way to go?”
“Not
a clue!!!!” she replied as she looked over the seat in front of her to see
Jeff had pulled out a map and was trying to unfold and get it the right way up.
“Ok,
if you turn right at the next junction it should be sign posted from there.”
He informed Matt as they all laughed at him as he tried to fold the map back up.
“I’ll
just go and check in with the boss and then I’ll be right back, Ok?” Chloe
said as they got out of the car.
“Sure.”
Amy replied as she undid the boot and tried to lift one of the suitcases.
“What the hell has she got in these?” she said as Matt pulled one suitcase
out with one hand.
Chloe
ran across the paddock and into the Williams BMW garage. She said a few hellos
to her mechanics and she headed for the back office where she found her boss
Frank Williams. He was talking to her team-mate Ralf Schumacher. “Hi guys!”
she chirped as she stepped threw the door.
“Hi
Chloe, how are you?” Frank said moving his wheelchair so he was facing her.
“I’m
fine thanks, you?”
“Not
so bad. We have parked you trailer in lot 6.” He handed her the key.
“Thanks,
do you mind if I go freshen up and then bring some friends down here to meet you
lot?”
“Go
ahead, by the way you are doing an interview with Mark Blundell later, so be
here around 2.00pm, ok?”
“Sure. See you later.” She said as she stepped out of the office and headed back out to the car park.
