Summary
Max Verstappen has a crush problem.
Specifically, a Charles Leclerc problem.After months of pining, flirting (he swears it was flirting) and making heart eyes across press conferences, Max finally gathers the courage to confess.
Charles smiles, pats his arm and says the words that end Max’s world:“Of course, Max. You’re a very good friend.”
Heart shattered. Pride bruised. Ego permanently dented.
Enter George Russell — Mercedes’ overachieving, PR-polished golden boy and Max’s long-time frenemy. The man who once called him “emotionally constipated” in a drivers’ briefing.
When Max drunkenly vents about his heartbreak, George, half for amusement and half because he can’t resist chaos proposes a plan:
“Let’s fake date. Make Leclerc see what he’s missing. You get your revenge. I get to prove you do have emotions.”
Against all logic, Max agrees.

Summary
“I just need to speak to Charles Leclerc” Max said. “It’s important.”
The guard shook his head. “No pass, no entry.”
Max stepped back, unsure on what to do. Then he spotted a group of reporters near the fence. He heard Charles’s name. Cameras flashed as Charles came out of the Ferrari garage, smiling and talking to someone.
For a second Max couldn’t move. He looked different now. Older, more confident and dressed in Ferrari red.
Max stood there frozen until Charles’s gaze turned his way. Their eyes met for the briefest second.
Charles frowned and his smile fading a little. He said something to his assistant then walked closer to the fence.
“Do I know you?” Charles asked. His voice was careful and polite.
Max opened his mouth but nothing came out at first. Then he said, “Yeah. You do.”
Charles looked at him longer this time. Something in his expression changed. A flicker of memory then surprise.
“Max?” he said quietly.
Max nodded. “I need your help.”

Summary
Max Verstappen entered the F1 world too early in the eyes of many. A reckless, dangerous driver, the others are slow to welcome him, instead shunning and ignoring the warning signs that blatantly flash bright. Even the media casts a shadow over the brilliance that the young boy holds inside. As his early years continue on, the grid will learn the hard way just how much pressure Max is under, and will be pressed to try and salvage anything they can before it's too late.

Summary
Omegas are one in fifty thousand. They are to be kept out of danger, protected and loved by a full pack in order to keep them safe and happy. No pack in their right mind would let an omega race in Formula 1.
So Max Verstappen must keep his true designation hidden from the full-alpha grid if he wants to race. That is, of course, until they find out anyway.
