Summary
Max was stunned silent, mouth dropped open in shock as he looked up at Charles.
Yes, look up from where he was currently knelt below Charles, who was looking awfully smug above him. That fucker knew the entire time, didn't he?
And the room. Max had seen it a moment before and had blinked at it for a second too long, but now in the centre of the decorations, Max understood.
This was a proposal.
There were rose petals shaped in a heart on the floor, candles dripping wax onto their floors, a ring, pushed into his hand. Oh god, this was a proposal.
Max was proposing to Charles without even realising they were dating.
He groaned.
OR: How Max accidentally started dating his lifelong rival, Charles Leclerc.

Summary
It was that time of year again.
It was towards the end of the season, and Max wasn't home.
Last year, Max had spent the entire weekend break on the simulator in their apartment, eyes locked on the same track, going around and around and around in dizzying spirals. When he had finished, he would fall asleep, exhausted, on their bed. Some days, Charles would come home to see him asleep on the chair of the sim itself.
Each day, Charles would come home later and later, distract himself longer and longer. Max was always asleep when he returned.
But even then, when Max had been his most distant, he had been there. At home.
This year, Max wasn't.
