    Summary

    “I guess we should just pretend to date, then?” Lando says easily.

    “What?” Oscar asks. “You’re not serious?”

    “Um, yeah I am, mate,” Lando says. “C’mon. It’s not like we can erase the kiss from anyone’s mind or socials. And I don’t want Zak to think you’re like playing mind games with me. I mean, you’re not right?”

    “No,” Oscar exclaims, shaking his head. “Of course not.”

    “Then, we might as well just lean in, right?” Lando says. “You’d look crazy if we just pretended it was some weird accident.”

    Well, Oscar probably is for kissing his teammate like that.

    ----

    Oscar kisses Lando on the podium in front of the whole world. Which might be ok if they were dating. But they're not. Not even close. So now, they have to pretend to date to save both of their careers from Oscar's lapse in judgment. This means cute insta posts, joint interviews, the occasional public date, and shared hotel room.

    It certainly doesn't mean exploring his newfound sexuality with his teammate. Or getting to know him on a deeper level. Or falling in love with him. All while leading the championship. Again.

    Summary

    “You gonna let me in?”

    Oscar blinks and steps aside, letting Lando through. The restaurant floor was dim at this hour, the only light source coming from the counter and kitchen. Lando looks around the interior, and Oscar has to fight the urge to just stare.

    He’s here. He’s actually here. In front of me.

    Summary

    Oscar thought he'd dealt with this years ago.

    The way his chest clamps down, and his heart races, and he thinks the walls are closing in.

    And the last thing he needs to realise is that he hasn't whilst Lando is standing right there.

    But Oscar's exhausted, and you can only push these things under for so long.

    Summary

    “Not a big deal?” Lando says, as if Oscar has personally insulted his mother. “Don’t you know what this means?”

    “No?”

    “It means you’re single for the first time since I’ve known you,” Lando points out. “And like in your life.”

    “I’ve been single before,” Oscar argues.

    “No, you’ve been a child before,” Lando says, exasperated. “You’ve never been single like this. Like, mate, you’re an F1 driver and you’re rich and shit. It’s awesome.”

    “I’m not much for clubs or hookups,” Oscar admits, making Lando tsk.

    “You weren’t much for clubs and hookups,” Lando corrects. “You will be. It’s a whole new world out there, Oscar. And it’s fucking awesome. I’m gonna show you. You won’t find a better guide to the single life than me.”

    ----

    Fresh off a breakup, Oscar is learning to navigate being single for the first time as an adult. A famous, rich adult. Lando generously offers to show him how to make the most of being a single, famous F1 driver.

    AKA Lando's guide to being single and trying not to fall in love with your teammate as you do it.

    Summary

    Oscar exhales loudly through his nose, working to set his face in a strict, flat expression. “What? No, you can’t look through my things.”

    “Aw, why not?” A whine tears out of Lando’s mouth. His lips even form a little pout. “Please, Osc? You were such a cute kid! I want to see what cute little Oscar collected.”

    “It’s not just from when I was a kid,” Oscar tries. “I mean, there’s stuff from school and karting and stuff.”

    Lando scoffs a bit. “Ok, well, your mum sent it, so I know there’s not like your weird hentai in there or something. Well… maybe if she’s cool with the bottom eyes. But still, I wanna know what teen Oscar liked too.”

    “Ok, I don’t watch hentai just because I learned Japanese, you freak,” Oscar says. “And even if I did, do you really think I would keep that as a keepsake?”

    “Well, I can find out if you let me see what’s inside.”

    -----
    A box of Oscar's childhood keepsakes accidentally gets delivered to Lando's apartment. Somehow, this leads to Lando discovering the full extent of Oscar's fanboy era, watching Heated Rivalry together, getting over lost championships, and learning how to go from pining rivals/teammates to something more.
