Summary
“You cannot love the person who takes everything away from you."
Charles watches him, because he can’t take his eyes off him even if he wanted to. Youngest ever driver accepted into Formula 1. Skipped past Formula 2. Toro Rosso. Red Bull. Always in a Red Bull. The safety car. P1. Champion of the world.
But he’s more than that too. He’s angry, and he’s a teenager, and he’s someone whose face turns red under the affections of his sister.
Max hasn’t taken anything away from him, because Charles has never really had anything in the first place.
Or,
The one where Pierre sends Charles into a quarter-life crisis during the active racing season.

Summary
They were born sixteen days apart, on the same street, in the same year.
In the late autumn of 1997, Sophie and Jos Verstappen welcomed a healthy baby boy and named him Max. Just over two weeks later, across the road, the Leclerc family celebrated the arrival of their second son, Charles.
No one could have known it then—not even their parents—but something had already begun to take shape. A rhythm. A pairing. A kind of quiet gravity that would pull them together for the rest of their lives.

Summary
It was probably some dull, stupid grown-up event. Politicians shaking hands, cameras flashing, someone droning into a microphone. But the boy on screen didn’t seem entertained in the slightest. He sat still, wrapped in a too-perfect suit, his expression caught somewhere between boredom and isolation. There was a faint flush on his cheeks, and frustration flickered in his eyes like a storm about to break. He looked fragile in the way expensive things often do—polished, but delicate.
Max felt something odd tighten in his chest. A little sting, like a string had been tugged somewhere deep inside him. At seven, he couldn’t comprehend what that meant. He only knew one thing with complete clarity: the Prince of Monaco was the prettiest human being he had ever seen.

Summary
“Charles,” Max said, his tone soft again and breaking Charles of his thoughts. “Please just ask me for whatever you want to ask me. You don’t have to keep explaining yourself.”
Charles laughed again, his cheeks bright red.
“Could I... sit on your cock for a little bit?”

Summary
“I’m not so drunk that I don’t know what I’m asking you,” Max said.
Charles swallowed the lump in his throat. “Me either.”
“So, is that a yes?”
“Are you sure about this?” Charles asked instead, laughing unbelievably and shaking his head. “This is not something we do, mate.”
“It could be something we do,” Max said, grinning at him. His fingers flexed on Charles’ hip, and it did something weird to Charles’ brain. When he looked back on this moment later, he would blame Max’s big hand on his hip for what he did next.
Because for some reason... Charles kissed him.
He wasn’t sure why.
OR: the self-indulgent story of how Charles and Max fell in love over winter break 2022, in a classic Enemies to Friends With Benefits to Lovers fic that nobody asked for.

Summary
An old FIA rule says that unmated omegas aren't allowed to race in any category of motorsport.
Because of that, Charles Leclerc has been hiding as a beta since he first presented as an omega-until a breakthrough heat destroys how hard he's worked and reveals his designation.
Ferrari, facing a major loss in sponsorship money, offer him a choice: leave Ferrari and motorsport forever, or agree to an invite only auction for the rights to mate him, with proceeds filling the hole in the budget.
Charles comes up with a plan to save himself, get an alpha he trusts, get Ferrari's money back, and keep his seat.
Unfortunately, Max Verstappen comes up with a plan, too.

Summary
Max Verstappen is a World Champion. Isabelle Leclerc is invisible.
She watched her family give up everything for Charles’ career—Arthur’s karting, their father’s savings, even her childhood horse. She understood. She never asked for more.
But Max does. He notices the things no one else does, listens when no one else will, and puts her first in ways she never imagined. With him, she isn’t an afterthought—she’s a choice. And for the first time, she realizes she doesn’t have to be invisible.Series

Summary
Max has been staring at those three words for what seems like hours.
In any other situation, or to any other person, those three words would look perfectly normal. Boring, in fact.
Except this situation was different.
Because the words looking up at Max’s startled face from the screen of his phone sparked such a mixture of emotions in him that it would take another whole hour to try and understand them.
Unknown Number
Hi
It’s Charles

Summary
Charles looks like he's fighting a smile when he demands, “Say it again.”
“Boyfriend?” Max makes sure, slightly incredulous, feeling like he's officially lost, squandered, ruined for anyone else.
"Yeah, I– yeah, that.”
Max grins.
“Charles,” he sings, leaning over the lights, close enough that their noses brush, “Be my boyfriend, my Monegasque tart, my sexy smart-mouthed rival–”

“I'm the Inevitable, remember?”
Charles rolled his eyes, aware of the fact that their chests were still closely pressed together, their breathing now in sync and audible in the empty, darkness filled hallway. “Very funny, Max.”
“What? It's true! The predestined and the inevitable.”
“You make it sound like some weird destiny shit.”
Max shrugged. “Maybe it is, Charlie.”*
