Summary
“Good evening. I’m Charles,” he offers his hand, which Max takes and for a second, Charles thinks he’s going to kiss the back of it. Some muscle spasms in the tight grip, rough velvet against soft skin. When Charles gets his hand back, it feels like he lost a finger or two in the fight.
“What’s your poison, Charles?” Max asks, settling on the barstool like it’s not designed to be the most uncomfortable chair in the world.
“Cyanide, usually. I’ll settle for a gin tonic for now.”
or:
Charles is a supermodel that has learned everything he needs to make his world turn. Now, he has no idea what Max Verstappen wants from him.

Summary
“What are you doing?” Charles asked, his voice cracking.
Max blinked at him once before he smirked and said, “Well... I was going to kiss you.”
“Why?”
“Because I want to.”
“Why?” Charles repeated, feeling like his legs were going to give out.
“Is that not a good enough reason?” Max asked.

Summary
“I’d like three scoops of vanilla ice cream, please.”
Charles doesn’t even stop what he’s doing. Doesn’t even look at him. “We’re all out of vanilla.”
Max stares. At Charles, then at the almost full tub of vanilla ice cream, with its little sign labeling it as vanilla sticking out of the fluffy ice cream.
“No, you’re not.”
“Yes, we are.”
“Charles, I can see the vanilla ice cream. It’s right there,” Max insists, pointing at the flavor through the display glass. As if Charles isn’t completely aware of its existence, as if he’s not just being a little shit and punishing Max for something that isn’t even remotely his fault.
Charles pauses in his bustling to look at Max. Then, he follows the length of Max’s arm to where his finger is pointing directly at the vanilla. His gaze returns to Max’s eyes as he says, deadpan: “That is only a display ice cream.”

OR: Charles owns an ice cream shop in Milan, Max is an F1 driver. Their paths cross, and Max finds himself slightly obsessed with more than just the heavenly vanilla ice cream Charles sells.

Summary
The large display in the area for fans shows a joyful Max, who has won yet again, together with an equally delighted Kelly. She embraces him and kisses through the safety glass. Someone nearby applauds. The camera zooms in, allowing everyone to witness the romantic scene closely. Holding onto the mesh, Charles tightens his grip on the thin wires, leaving noticeable horizontal indentations. He wants to say something hurtful but spotted fans recording him from behind. Instead, he keeps his gaze on the large screen.
Someone whispers "Wow, he's handsome" and Charles can barely stop himself from turning to the fans and shouting that their favorite Dutchman also holds other men by the waist and pulls them to him in the same way to fuck in a faceless hotel room where they have come in turns, fifteen minutes apart, so that no one sees.
Or,
a story where Charles reflects a lot, learns to appreciate himself and loves Max thoughtlessly.Series
