Summary
Charles, a fighter pilot for the French-Monégasque Armée de l'Air, is also second in line to the Monégasque throne. And, so what, if he has a crush on Max Verstappen? Even as a tifoso? And, so what, if Max Verstappen just bought him a drink?
He's a trained, professional soldier who's done two tours in Afghanistan... He can be totally normal about this.
(He cannot, in fact, be normal about this)
(But that's okay, because neither can Max)

Summary
5 times Max watches Alphas try (and fail) to win over the most coveted Omega on the grid (and possibly the world), the track menace himself, Charles Leclerc.
(And 1 time an Alpha succeeds.)
Or the AU where Max and Charles are childhood friends, Charles is trying to find true love, and Max gives Cupid a helping hand to ensure there's only one Alpha left standing. Dates are sabotaged, Charles is wooed, and Max goes incognito (everyone recognizes him).

Summary
“What’s wrong with you?” Max snarls but doesn’t move. It makes Charles even more angry. He wants to see Max snaps, needs him to revert to the angry kid that ranted about him on camera, just so they could see eye to eye.
They have unresolved business. They will always have.
But Max is composed and Charles is fraying at the edges. Somehow, Max is always a step ahead.
or:
Charles finds it hard to be himself when all he do is hide, Max is confusing while horribly honest, and love is stored between a quarter of orange and a whisky cabinet. Somehow, it all comes together.

Summary
“Fuck you, Max,” he added, “I am not some weak-”
“You can try,” Max interrupted him.
“What?” Charles blinked, his surprise made his anger dawdle.
“You’re not a weak omega, is that what you were gonna say?” he explained, could feel the shit-eating grin grow on his face, cheeks stretching, “you can try and fuck me, if you’re so sure.”Series

Summary
“Charles Leclerc, in the presence of our family and loved ones, will you do me the honor of being mine—to keep and to protect?”
Charles stared at him, horrified. He looked like he was about to throttle Max on the spot.
Max only smiled.
Charles took a step forward to hiss at him to get the hell up—but Max’s gestured behind them. “Everyone’s watching, baby.”
Charles looked between their audience and Max. There they were: his immediate family. Max’s entire family. Some smiling. Some looking outright horrified.
This bastard.
Or fake relationship gone wrong

Summary
For a dizzying moment, Charles wonders what he looks like to Max. Dressed in fading white to Max’s eternal black, bathed in the shadow Max casts over Charles in contrast to the golden halo of his husband’s hair. The layered wedding dress pooled around them, head tilted upwards, lips parted, like he’s ready to say a prayer.
Ready to receive Max’s blessing.
Waiting for Max to give him purpose.
To guide him.

How (Not) To Third Wheel Lestappen by f1writingbyme, LestappenForever

Summary
Lance doesn’t know which of his emotions is more overpowering; the secondhand embarrassment he feels at how blatantly obvious they’re being, or the fact that watching Max and Charles in their own little world is actually kind of cute.
He realizes it’s the secondhand embarrassment as he watches Max shamelessly grin at James and proudly explain that he was just talking to Charles.
Lance has to resist the urge to roll his eyes, especially when he notices how Charles is quite literally the embodiment of the heart eyes emoji where he’s standing next to Max for his entire interview. And the beeline Charles makes for Max as soon as he hands the microphone to Lance after his P2 interview is even worse than the heart eyes.
He definitely should have been paying attention to that group chat, Jesus fucking Christ.

OR: There is a WhatsApp support group chat on how to deal with being top 3 with Max and Charles, and this is the tale of different drivers (mostly Checo) suffering at the hands of them. An ongoing fic that will be updated whenever we get content to work with.

Summary
“I don’t know,” He finds himself staring at another picture. Max is laughing brightly, to the point where his eyes are crinkled, and his mother is smiling too. There is a navy cap on her head: it is a Red Bull cap. Max’s Red Bull cap. “It’s just hard to imagine, I think.”
Pascale looks at him. For a moment it is an odd look. But that quickly melts into a smile. One that is gentle around the eyes, and soft on the mouth. Somehow, it makes Charles feel young again — younger than how he already feels; twenty-one in a world where he is twenty-five.
“You don’t have to imagine it, mon garçon,” she says quietly. “It has already happened.”
Or,
The last thing Charles remembers is the 2019 Austrian Grand Prix.

Summary
“Well it is strange, no,” Max explains with a tipsy grin, “I am world champion, but I was not even on the podium, so I don’t have a trophy to show off tonight. But you… you could be my trophy.”
He punctuates the request with a firm squeeze, his smile widening at the way it makes Charles squirm.
“Are you asking me to be your trophy wife,” Charles questions, raising an eyebrow.
Max’s stomach gives a funny sort of jerk at the choice of words.

or: Max wins his fourth WDC, gets really drunk, celebrates with his boyfriend, and pops a very important question at a very inappropriate time. Things work out anyways. -

“Let’s recap then- You admit that you and Charles Leclerc have been involved in a sexual relationship for the past two years. You describe this as a ‘long-term, exclusive, friends with benefits’ arrangement, in which you estimate you usually sleep with him at least twice a week. Oh, and in your own words, it’s 'complicated'. Does that cover everything you want to tell me Max?”
“Oh for fuck’s sake- yes, Gemma, that’s everything. Now will you please tell me what the fuck is going on?"
“I will, but I have one last question...When did you and Charles film the sex tape?”
.
.
or: Max and Charles’ sex tape is leaked to the paddock. The violation of privacy is almost as terrible as the way it forces them to confront their feelings. -

“You will not be my concubine,” Max says.
Charles listens, tense and still, feeling those rough, violent hands holding his face, piercing eyes pinning him in place.
“You will be my wife,” Max tells him, soft and dangerous, “I’m going to marry you. Going to make you my queen.”
The words strike his heart, sharp and brutal.

Summary
“Dude, Spiderman was opposite the building again! He’s been there so much recently, I’m starting to think he lives here or something.”
Oscar choked on a french fry, lightly patting his chest and grabbing his drink to wash it down. “Have you thought about the fact that he probably likes the area?”
“No! He goes there with a hoodie and a backpack, he’s probably on his way home or something! Could you imagine? Spiderman could actually live in the flats opposite us!” Lando exclaimed, turning his head to the window and he could slightly see the same building. The world now becoming suffocated by the increasing darkness, the sunset long gone.
Oscar pinched the bridge of his nose, “I think you’re reading into this way too much, mate.”
OR
Lando is obsessed with the friendly-neighbourhood Spiderman and Oscar is his good best friend that listens.

Devils Roll The Dice (Angels Roll Their Eyes) by LestappenForever

Summary
It all started with a crash.
Well, technically, it started with a blue-eyed boy with blonde hair getting screamed at in a language he couldn’t understand when he was only 8 years old. He remembered looking at the boy, who couldn’t be much older than himself - (two weeks older, to be exact, he’d learn later) - and watching the spark disappear right out of those icy blue eyes.
That was the first memory Charles Leclerc had of Max Verstappen: Watching Jos Verstappen, Max’s own father, scream at this 8 year old child with an intensity that turned his face red and made every blood vessel in his neck look dangerously close to bursting.
But if anyone ever were to ask Charles when he started to realize that his feelings towards that same Max Verstappen he had known since childhood had begun to change into something else, something bigger, something terrifying he couldn’t - or wouldn’t - quite put his finger on, he would say that it all started with a crash.
Because of fucking course it did.

“Charles,” Max said, his tone gentle.
Charles didn’t move his hands away from his face.
“Hey... look at me,” Max said softly.
Charles took a deep breath and finally let his hands fall.
Max looked at him for a long moment, their eyes locked together before he asked, “Would my cock help?”
OR: In the aftermath of the shit show that was Melbourne, Charles turns to Max for comfort.
