After a long flight and fairly short drive from the airport, Y/n finally stepped into her bedroom after what felt a lot longer than a couple weeks.

She took a deep breath before she began unpacking all her belongings. Soon enough Charles was in her room.

Y/n: Uhhh... What are you staring at?

Charles: It's so much better now that you're here. I missed having you around sis.

Y/n: I missed having you to boss me around.

Charles: Hey!

Y/n: I'm kidding! It's good to be back with you and Arthur.

Charles: Well, can you get ready? We want to go for a family dinner or sorts.

Y/n: Sure thing.

Once Y/n finished unpacking she got ready in a simple outfit. The Leclerc brothers had taken her to her favorite restaurant overlooking the city.

It was an awesome dinner and just what Y/n needed after being away for so long. They laughed and spoke the whole time and every worry Y/n had from the previous week had slipped away.

After a short, fun photoshoot they called it a night and headed home. Y/n posted the photos immediately, feeling good about the night and then headed off to bed.

Pierre's POV

————————

After seeing Y/n's post I realized how much I missed seeing her with my best friend and his brothers. Sure I missed her being around but I loved seeing the bond they all shared and Charles was a different sort of happy when she was around and I was all for seeing that. When I saw her reply to my comment I was hit with a crazy thought. I don't know why but I felt the need to tell Y/n even though it seemed crazy so I phoned her.

Y/n: Hey you

Pierre: Hey chéri

Y/n: Whats up?

Pierre: Nothing much, missing you

Y/n: As always I must agree

Pierre: Happy you're home?

Y/n: It's great but it's different. As if something is missing.

Pierre: Oh?

Y/n: You Pierre... you're missing.

Pierre: That's actually why I'm phoning.

Y/n: What do you mean?

Pierre: I just had a sudden crazy and random thought. Well it's more like an idea... If you were interested or wanted to maybe you could come to Milan for a bit. Stay with me. Not forever, just until you're ready to go back to Monaco.

Y/n: Really? Pierre...

Pierre: You don't have to of course. I understand if it's not what you want right now.

Y/n: I would LOVE to come for a while! Oh Pierre that's the best idea ever! Yes yes yes!

Pierre: Really? I'm so glad! I can't wait! What about you come with me after Japan?

Y/n: Uh yeah. Sounds- uh- sounds good. I love you Pierre, I'm pretty tired so I'll phone tomorrow.

Pierre: Of course chéri, sleep well and I love you too.

End Pierre POV

—————————

After the call Y/n was so excited about going to Pierre for a while. She just wasn't sure about Japan yet and Charles hadn't even asked her about the race yet. She walked out of her room and found Charles about to knock on her door.

Charles: Oh sorry. I just wanted to come say goodnight. That was Pierre that called no?

Y/n: It was and guess what

Charles: What?

Y/n: He asked me to come stay with him for a bit! In Milan! At least until I want to come back to Monaco.

Charles: That's great! I'm happy for you but I can't help but feel selfish. We just got you back.

Y/n: Charlesie, I'm going to have to leave eventually.

Charles: Charlesie? Haven't heard that in years... and I know. I'm really happy you have Pierre. You should definitely go. When we're you planning on leaving?

Y/n: Well um... he thought I could go back to Milan after... after Japan.

Charles: Japan? Oh, right... look Y/n, if you don't want to-

Y/n: -I don't know what I want yet. Thanks for tonight. I'll be off to bed now.

Charles: Okay, good night sis. See you in the morning.

Y/n closed her door and went to bed. Struggling to fall asleep from both excitement about Milan and nerves about Japan. She knew she should go but she didn't think she was ready. As she slept the same nightmare happened.

Thunder, skidding, explosion of noise, silence.

Y/n: NO!

She sat up immediately, breathing heavily as Charles and Arthur burst through the door. When she looked up she felt she had started crying and the brothers rushed to her sides.

Charles: Shhh, it's okay. We're here.

Arthur: What happened? Bad dream?

Y/n: Something like that.

Charles: Bad memory?

Y/n just took some shallow breaths and sobbed silently.

Arthur: Y/n, was it... was it Jules again?

Y/n: Y-yes

Both Leclercs held her tighter at this.

Charles: When did it start again?

Y/n: When I realized- when I-

Arthur: When you realized it was Japan next?

Y/n: Yeah. I know I should but I can't imagine going back.

Charles: You shouldn't have to do anything Y/n. If you don't want to come you don't have to.

Arthur: Charles is right, you've already taken so many steps we never thought you would. You don't have to prove anything to anyone anymore.

Y/n: I know... but it's the second last race... I want to be there for you Charles, and Pierre.

Charles: Don't worry about us sis. Arthur is going to be here in Monaco. You can stay with him.

Y/n: I'll see... I still have a two days to decide.

Charles: Okay, for now you need sleep. I think this calls for a sleepover. Arthur?

Arthur: Way ahead of you! I'll grab my pillows!

Y/n: Haha, thank you guys.

Charles: We're always here for you Y/n. No matter what.

She lay down in Charles' arms as she calmed herself down enough to fall asleep. Arthur joined eventually and climbed in on the other side of Y/n. She smiled as she lay protected in between her brothers. It was just like the first few nights after Jules... They always stayed close to her and wouldn't leave her room until she felt strong enough to be alone again... They may not share her blood but Y/n knew that they would always be the only family she needed...
