    Summary

    “Max, mon amour,” Charles tries softly, rubbing his hand soothingly over Max’s ankle. “Will you please tell me what’s wrong?”

    “Oscar is wrong!” Max explodes. Charles stares at him, shocked. He didn’t know Max had a problem with Oscar. Actually, he thought he quite liked him. “He’s so—why does he want Monaco as a home race, anyway? He doesn’t even live here!”

    “I think it’s just a joke?” Charles says, but with the way Max is behaving he starts to second guess himself. No, that’s insane—obviously Oscar is joking. Fuck.

    “But now everybody is playing along!” Max says, slamming his phone down on the couch. “F1 and the F.I.A. called him Piastri-Leclerc.”

    OR:

    Max gets a little upset about Oscar's joke. Charles is determined to find out why.

    Summary

    “I’m in love with you.”

    Well, fuck.

    Charles takes a deep breath. He’s let down a lot of people before, but none of them ever meant as much to him as Max does. He thinks he’s always been kind in the past, but as he thinks through all of his I’m sorry, I’m not interested’s and I’m flattered, but I’m not really looking for anything right now’s, he realises that none of it should be said to Max. Max deserves so much better than that.

    “Max, I—” He clenches his jaw again, rubbing his sweaty palm against his jean-clad thigh. “You know I’m straight.”

    Max nods once. “Yeah, I know. Believe me, I feel so fucking stupid.”

    //

    Max confesses he's in love with Charles.

    Charles goes on a journey.

    Summary

    Max Verstappen, Formula 1’s sharpest investigative journalist, thinks he’s about to land the story of the year by cornering Charles Leclerc for an exclusive.

    Charles Leclerc, the grid’s most beautiful and most gossiped-about omega, thinks Max is about to learn a very different lesson about what makes a headline.

    The line between source and story gets very, very blurry.

    Summary

    Rapid fire thoughts in French pour into his head, each more hysterical sounding than the last. He recognizes “merde”, “putain”, and “pensée” and that’s it. Unhelpful.

    “Charles,” he murmurs, slightly apologetic, “French.”

    Charles’ eyes get even bigger, his eyebrows shooting up to his hairline. He makes a noise that if Max were a slightly less merciful person he would call a squeak. Watching him make the absolutely unhinged connection in real time is fascinating. Then carefully, in tentative English, You are hearing my thoughts?

    Miserable, Max nods. Then shrugs. Fuck.

    “Max,” Charles practically hisses, his grip on Max’s hand going tighter. The pinprick of his nails feels like the only thing connecting Max to the earth. “What the fuck?”

    *

    Or, the year Max turns thirty, he spends about a month mid-season being able to read minds via physical touch. Charles is there too.
