    Summary

    Charles and Max finally take the next step and move in together, leaving high school behind them. Their relationship, once full of playful teasing and unexpected depth, has grown into something more solid as they face the challenges of college life.

    New beginnings come new obstacles—unexpected tensions, personal struggles, and the weight of past trauma threaten to tear them apart.

    As they navigate their new world, they must decide if they can overcome these hurdles together or if their love will be tested beyond what they can handle.

    Will they find happiness in this new chapter, or will the scars from their past and the pressures of adulthood push them further apart?

    Summary

    Max has seen The Crown on Netflix okay? He knows that royals are meant to be aloof, held back from the public, a little bit distant, a lot untouchable if it means keeping them alive and safe and in one piece.

    But Charles is nothing like that and it’s making his job ten times more difficult.

    Or,

    Charles Leclerc is a Prince of Monaco. Max is assigned to be his bodyguard. Somehow, it shouldn’t work, but eventually it does.

    The Prince/Bodyguard AU that absolutely nobody asked for.

    Summary

    “Do you know what fanfiction is?”

    Max blinks. “Yeah?”

    “Oh, good,” Charles says, even more relieved. “Do you know people write about celebrities?”

    Max rolls his eyes. “I’ve been briefed by PR, yeah.”

    Charles flops down on the lounge, Sassy and Jimmy long gone, and props his feet up on the coffee table. Max rolls his eyes again, then sits down next to him. He and Charles are friends, kind of, and certainly closer now that they’ve ever been before, but he’s never really witnessed Charles having a PR-related meltdown before. They’re not that close.

    Oh, well. A first time for everything, he supposes.

    “Great!” Charles says cheerily, then unlocks his phone and shoves it in Max’s face. “Do you also know that we’re ranked second on Archive of Our Own?”

    Summary

    Charles knows that he isn’t supposed to have favourite clients, but unfortunately for him, he does: Franz_Hermann.

    Franz hires Charles for private calls on Thursday evenings. Well, Thursday evenings for Franz. For Charles, their session is usually on Thursday evenings, but sometimes it's more like: Thursday night, bleeding into Friday morning; or so early Thursday morning, that there's no point going to bed on Wednesday.

    Franz says that he travels for work. He says that his work is very stressful, and that he likes to go into the weekend as relaxed as possible.

    Charles categorically ignores that Franz’s work travel patterns always line up perfectly with the Formula 1 calendar.

    Then Max Verstappen is seen driving at the Nordschleife under the name 'Franz Hermann,' and Charles can't ignore the very connectable dots anymore.
