Chapter 11

“Chloe, this morning I was surprised to find a statement on my desk from Frank Williams saying that you are pledging a formal complaint against me and that Williams are going to try and get compensation because of your accident. I would like to know why?” Bernie asked in driver briefing.

“Well, as the accident wasn’t my fault, and you accused me, I think I’m entitled to make a complaint and as for compensation, I didn’t cause the accident so I’m entitled to it.” She replied. She looked around the room at a few of the drivers who nodded their heads in agreement with her.

“Very well. Right, back to the race and morning warm up.” He started as Chloe drifted of into a daydream.

“Clo.” She heard shouted after her as she walked down the pit lane. She looked around to see both Mclaren drivers following her.

“Hi.” She said to them as she slowed her pace so she could catch her up.

“That’s a brave thing you’re doing, I wouldn’t have the guts.” David Coulthard said to her as she stopped out side her garage. 

“Well, they are going to learn I’m not a push over.”

“I think we all know that now.” Mika joked, before Chloe excused herself and went to prepare for morning warm up.

“Matt, what’s happening between you and Chloe?” Amy asked from the passenger seat of his car.

“Nothing, well, not any more.”

“Oh, is she with Jeff then?”

“Yeh. I take it you don’t know the news then.”

“What news?”

“That Chloe’s pregnant.”

“Really, I bet Jeff is over the moon, he always wanted kids.”

“Amy, it’s not Jeff’s, it’s mine.”

Amy didn’t know what to say, she sat in silence before turning to look at him. ”What are you gunna do?”

“Be there if she needs anything, that’s all I can do, she’s in love with Jeff, I’ll have to learn to cope with that. Well, that’s what dad said I should do, nut it’s not going to be that easy.”

“You’ll manage, you’re a strong person. Speaking of Gil where is he?”

“He’s bringing Chloe’s car back from the hotel.”

“Oh.”

Fastest. That was the perfect start to race day. Chloe finished on top of the time sheets just a head of Mika and Ralf.

As she got out of the car her brother who embraced her followed by Jeff who was grinning from ear to ear greeted her.

When she had removed her helmet she walked out the back of the garage with Jeff and she led him over to a quiet spot on the grass. “Ouch!!” Chloe yelped as she bent her knee as she sat down.

“Come here.” Jeff said as he pulled her over to him and positioned her in between his legs, he pulled her hair from out of her racing suit and pulled it to one side. She lay back against him and took his hands in hers. “That was fantastic.” He whispered as he placed a soft kiss on her neck.

“What the driving or the sex?” she joked as she brought his fingers up to her lips and kissed each one.

“Both.” He said nuzzling at her neck before he saw a shadow cast over them and he looked up to see his brother standing there. “Matt, what do you want?” he asked coldly

“I came to say well done to Clo. Do you have a problem with that?”

“No, but we wanted to be alone.” He snapped.

“Jeff, we were only talking. Matt, come sit with us.” Chloe said as she pattered the ground next to her and Jeff. He sat down and faced the two lovers that were in front of him.

“Look, I know you don’t want me near her Jeff, but that’s not going to happen, she’s carrying my baby and I am going to be by her side all the way. Even if it means that means you hate me, this is my kid and I am not going to let you stand in the way of that.”

“I know it’s your baby, you do keep reminding me!!” he snapped unintentionally shouting down Chloe’s ear.

“Listen, I don’t want you to keep fighting over me and the baby. If it’s going to cause so much problem, then I won’t bother coming back here.” She shouted at them as she got to her feet and walked away from them.

“Clo, come back.” Jeff called after her. She stopped and turned to face them.

“I have to work. Look, just sort something out because if I hear you argue one more time I am going to do something we will all regret.” Is all she said as she turned and jogged back into the garage and began to discus what she wanted done with her car for the race.

After spending two hours talking to her mechanics Chloe walked out to the trailer. As she walked in she saw Matt waiting for her.

“Hi.” He said softly.

“Hey, you ok?”

“I’m fine, well except my bother.”

“I know, but I am glad you are here because we need to talk with out Jeff.”
”I know, what are we going to do? I have given up trying to talk to him.”

“I don’t blame you, he is being so pig headed about this, I know we going out and this must be hard for him but it’s hard for us to and he’s making it harder for us. I need you to be with me through this, Jeff says he’ll be there and I know he will but he’s not the father of my baby, you are and I want you to be with me.”

“I will be, I promise you that, what every you want you just have to ask, ok?”

“Yeh, I know you will. I just want Jeff to know that no matter what has happened between us is in the past and my future is with him, but if he doesn’t stop being so childish he is going to meet a side of me he would of never thought possible.”

“I’m glad I haven’t pissed you off.” He said as he moved closer to her. She knew what he was going to do. He undid the knot in her racing suit and he pulled it down a little as he placed his soft warm lips on her stomach, he placed soft kisses on her as she ran my hands through his soft hair. His kisses began to rise up her body, missing out her breasts but going to her neck before he placed a final kiss on her lips. She wrapped her arms around him. “I love you.” He whispered in her ear.

“I love you too.” She whispered back before breaking the embrace. “I’ve gotta get to work
