    Summary

    My lungs won’t expand, he realizes with terror and real panic starts to set in.

    I’m going to die, I'm going to die, I'm going to d-

    “Nico?”

    A voice suddenly sounds next to him and it's like his own personal shockwave going through his body. Of course, he recognizes that voice. He would know it blind.

    Lewis.

    or: while reporting for Sky, Nico starts having a panic attack. Lewis is the only one there to help. Will this encounter help them mend the bridges they burned and find their way back to one another?

    (aka: Lewis loves to send pictures, and Nico goes insane until he reaches his breaking point. Living in the same apartment building sure has its perks.)

    Summary

    A little while later, Charles whispered, "My soulmate's an amazing artist."

    Max almost choked in surprise. He turned to Charles again and Charles was leaning back in his chair, squinting into the telescope, which was pointed right up above him.

    "Yeah?" Max managed to say.

    Charles put down the telescope and nodded. "I used to get these really nice flowers on my skin. And really beautiful, intricate patterns. I loved them. I took them as little gifts from my soulmate to me."

    "That's nice," Max smiled. He hadn't imagined it would make him so happy that Charles liked his little skin drawings.

    "They've stopped, though." Charles absentmindedly ran his fingers over his arm. "I don't know why. Maybe they got busy. I hope they're fine."

    Summary

    The grainy pictures are pieced together like a crude comic strip, sketching a poorly thought-out narrative arc that somehow made it onto the front page of every sleazy newspaper.

    EXPOSED!: The secret gay double-life of F1 driver Max Verstappen

    -

    Max navigates the aftermath of being outed in the press, and Charles is always there.

    Summary

    Charles feels the impact, feels the sudden, blinding flare of pain. And then nothing. 

    (The spectators, and cameras, and teams watch his limp body be pulled from the wreckage.

    The race is red flagged. 

    A heavy silence descends upon the track, thick and tense and all-consuming.)

    OR

    Charles crashes in a race, badly. In his head, he meets someone who tells him he has a choice. Stay or go back.

    Summary

    "Where are you going?" Max mumbled, his voice thick with sleep, his face buried against Charles' chest.

    "I need to get up. I have morning workout, remember?" Charles tried to peel Max’s arms off gently, but Max only clung harder, legs now tangling with his.

    Sometimes, it was just unbelievable to think about how Max, the fierce lion, the unstoppable beast on track, was the same boy who bargained with a soft, sweet voice just for snuggling into his lover for some more minutes.

    Charles couldn’t help but become hopelessly endeared by it.

     

    Or, 4 times Max was being extra clingy, and 1 time Charles knew why.
