    Summary

    “Max!” Kimi perked up immediately.

    “Yo, kiddo. Nice drive. Didn’t crash into anyone, that’s an improvement.”

    George instantly tensed, crossing his arms looking at Max like he just murdered Toto. “He did a lot more than simply avoid crashing, Verstappen. His tire management was superb.”

    “Relax, Papa Bear. I’m not insulting your cub.”

    Big mistake. Just as the word "cub" came out, Kimi hid his face in Max's chest and clung to him like a baby koala.

    “…Mama,” he mumbled.

    The room went silent.

    “WHAT?” Max blinked.

    “You smell nice. You’re my Mama now.”

    Summary

    Deep down he’d known this since a very long time.
    He’d just buried it under layers of lies and fears, too afraid to ever consciously let himself think about it, let alone act on it.
    Until the truth burst out in flames after years of being suffocated.
    He could fool himself no more.

    George came undone slowly, but surely.

    OR
    Anxious perfectionism meets angry perfectionism with childhood trauma and mental health issues in the background. Sparks fly, but the only way they are able to express their feelings is fighting and breaking apart.

    Summary

    It was simple: whoever qualified lower had to spend the day decked out in the other’s team merch, head to toe, and no exceptions.

    Max and George shook on it live on international television, which meant two things: one, the cameras were rolling; and two, George was about to become Red Bull’s newest, most reluctant fashion icon.

    Summary

    Tired, after a long race, Max tells the media that he and George Russel are dating. It’s a joke. A poorly timed joke, maybe, but still obviously a joke, but not to the media or the fans who are engrossed by the story of two rivals turned lovers. The passionate love affair that had spilled into their off track dynamic.
    It wasn’t meant to happen, but it did, and both the Red Bull and Mercedes team need to find a way to pick up the pieces before the situation got any more out of control.

    Summary

    It wasn’t the penalty, or the fight, or even the words said to the reporters.

    It was the cosmic void left by the one thing missing.
    It was the unanswered texts that were disguised pleas.
    It was the quiet moment after the confetti was swept and the cake was cut:
    The moment George realized he was never the sun, only in orbit, able to drift away with nobody noticing the dimming light in their sky.

    For Max, it was simpler. He didn’t realize silence could sound like goodbye.

    Months later, under the lights, the debris of things unsaid, and the bitter taste of champagne, the stars finally collide.
