Summary
Charles was good, almost too good at riding. That is, bull riding, of course. Max knows where he practiced those hip movements and wants Charles to take a spin on him instead. But nothing came easy with Charles Leclerc. No, it never did.
—
“I want a race win.”
Max’s brow furrowed. They had an agreement that there was no bias to be had on the track, especially not around special days. “Well you won last year, so just—“
Charles cut him off. “Non. Not me. You.”
What?
“What?”

His life, Charles realized with a sick jolt, had begun to revolve completely around Max Verstappen. Everything he did, centered around the 𝘉𝘦𝘧𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘔𝘢𝘹, 𝘋𝘶𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘔𝘢𝘹, 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘈𝘧𝘵𝘦𝘳 𝘔𝘢𝘹. Accidentally, he seemed to have unlocked a secret option D: 𝘋𝘶𝘳𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘔𝘢𝘹, 𝘱𝘢𝘳𝘵 𝘵𝘸𝘰.

Summary
It wasn’t supposed to happen like this.
It was supposed to be planned around his schedule- aligned with winter break, maybe. Or even after he’d retired. He should’ve been with his partner, whoever they were; he’d never dared hope it would be Max. He should’ve been wrapped in their embrace, murmuring hushed words of excitement to one another as they waited for the minutes to pass and a result to show on the test.
They should’ve found out together. Ready. Eager. Full of love.
Instead it was like this: alone, curled on a cold bathroom floor, a painfully impersonal PDF staring at Charles from his phone. The only positivity to be found in the situation was sitting in the results column of the file, neatly slotted next to the word pregnancy.
The email. The result. The loneliness. It was all too much. Charles began to cry once again.
At the top of his screen, a response popped up with impeccable timing.
i told you not to text me.
Alternatively:
Charles is in love with Max. Max is in love with Charles. It really is that complicated, and then it gets worse.
Meanwhile, Lando just wants Oscar to kiss him, and he's not quite sure how to make that happen.- Language:

Summary
Rapid fire thoughts in French pour into his head, each more hysterical sounding than the last. He recognizes “merde”, “putain”, and “pensée” and that’s it. Unhelpful.
“Charles,” he murmurs, slightly apologetic, “French.”
Charles’ eyes get even bigger, his eyebrows shooting up to his hairline. He makes a noise that if Max were a slightly less merciful person he would call a squeak. Watching him make the absolutely unhinged connection in real time is fascinating. Then carefully, in tentative English, You are hearing my thoughts?
Miserable, Max nods. Then shrugs. Fuck.
“Max,” Charles practically hisses, his grip on Max’s hand going tighter. The pinprick of his nails feels like the only thing connecting Max to the earth. “What the fuck?”
*
Or, the year Max turns thirty, he spends about a month mid-season being able to read minds via physical touch. Charles is there too.
