I want Cecil and Charles to be best friends. I think it would be absolutely hilarious.
I want Charles to text Cecil about Night Vale religious stuff out of curiosity, but then they spend hours talking because Cecil knows a lot of random stuff about the different deities and who likes what type of sacrifice and stuff like that.
And then it just spirals from there. They're both dating the other's double, so in a weird way, they already know each other and feel close to each other, and it just makes it worse.
Do they want to fuck? No, not at all. They just get weirdly close. They talk about their husbands, their kids, their lives. If they meet up, they share food and drinks without a thought, get changed in the same room, etc etc.
Meanwhile, Kevin and Carlos are slowly losing their minds. What they had for those ten years in the DoW was NOT platonic even if it never went as far as either of them wanted, and so they keep thinking that Charles and Cecil can't be either.
Charles absolutely knows it bothers them and is enjoying the jealous sex so he definitely plays it up a bit. Compliments Cecil's ass, braids his air, gets physically affectionate, etc.
Cecil just has a shiny new best friend that comes with a new best friend for Esteban, too, and he's excited about it. He doesn't even realize there is tension.

OVERPROTECTIVE
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
pairing: max verstappen x fem!leclerc!reader
word count: 1.6k+
summary: the story of how you and max met . . . and how protective he and your brothers can be
request: max verstappen and leclerc!reader : overprotective charles and carlos, very domestic and protective max while theyre int he paddock during race, maybe hes also very affectionate. just some fluff and comedy
warnings/contents: swearing, sexual innuendos
author’s note: maybe took it too far with the beginning but i couldn’t help it, plus that’s something that max would do
Tumblr media
As the youngest sibling and only girl, you knew your family would be protective ━━ especially your brothers. Sometimes you liked it, and used it to your advantage by scaring off random guys at parties and being a little less afraid of walking home at night with them there, but you also hated it sometimes. You knew they just wanted you to be okay and not have to experience the same things they did, but it still sucked. Your parents stuck up for you when they could, but when you first moved out and stayed with Charles there wasn’t much they could do.
They had managed to scare off almost every guy you liked or started a relationship with, saying they were ‘too mean’ or ‘impolite’ or just little things like they didn’t like the way he dressed or how he talked. The longest you had been with a guy was two weeks before he got annoyed at your brothers and left. You ignored them for a week as you only went to school, your job, and hid in your room when you were home. And you bet the got a stern talking to from your parents ━━ especially your mom.
That was the longest you had been with someone . . . Until you met Max. You had heard , and knew of, Max Verstappen as him and your brother did karting together as kids and Charles joined Formula One only three years after, but you had never interacted.
The first time you met was in 2019. You had moved to Monaco for university and were living with Charles. Though Charles had invited you to races before, you always declined busy with school work or your job, where Charles would respond with something along the lines of ‘i don’t know why you have that job anyway’ which you would roll your eyes and flip him off. It was the Austrian Grand Prix that you finally agreed to go, one of the races that Max had won that year. You had gotten some time off from your job and you didn’t have too much work so you agreed.
When you arrived, you were a little overwhelmed so you mostly stayed in the Ferrari garage, talking to Charles and sometimes Sebastian, though they were pretty busy. The next couple days you didn’t have too much time to go out and explore, to worried about watching free practices and qualifying, and you didn’t even think about leaving during the race until it was over.
It wasn’t until the after party that you actually talked to him. You originally weren’t going to go, you were going to stay in and work on homework, until Charles begged you and you agreed . . . but only because he came second and you were proud of him. You were nineteen, so you were legal, but you were sure even if you weren’t you’d be allowed a few drinks, albeit with Charles hovering over you more than usual.
It was about twenty minutes into the party ━━ with you and Charles getting drinks and being introduced to other people ━━ when you got introduced to Max. “Max!” Charles had called over the thumping bass of the music. At first, the Dutch man didn’t hear until your brother yelled right into his ear. He turned around, surprised, before calling a ‘Charles!’ and congratulating him. He didn’t see you until he pulled away from the hug, turning to see you. “This is my sister! Y/n!” He told Max, again yelling. You loudly introduced yourself as you put your hand forward. “Max! You came to watch Charles karting when you were younger right?” You nodded. “I recognize you!”
Max eventually got pulled away by some people, you assumed technicians or mechanics as you don’t recognize them as drivers, and didn’t see each other for another hour. You had stepped outside for a minute, overwhelmed, though you made sure to tell Charles where you were going. When you had, he immediately became concerned but you waved him off, telling him you were okay and just needed some fresh air.
You were leaning against the wall of the building, bottle of water in your hand as you heard footsteps. You quickly turned your head, though calmed once you saw it was only Max. “Scare you?” He asked. You got to hear his voice clearer now, taking in his accent slipping out due to the alcohol. “Can never be too careful. Dangerous for women.” He nodded, but didn’t say anything for a little. As you were taking a sip of water, he started to speak. “First race?” You nodded, “yeah. I’ve watched, obviously, but I’ve just been too busy with school that I haven’t had the chance. It’s been a little overwhelming at times ━━ hence why I’m out here.”
“I get that. It was for me too.” You turned to look at him. “You were seventeen, right?” He looked surprised that you knew that. “Yeah . . . I was.” You could see in his eyes that remembering that was heavy. “That must’ve been hard.” You told him but didn’t plan on talking anymore about it. “It was, but that’s life.” You nodded. You offered him a sip of your water bottle, knowing he must be getting thirsty. He replied with a small ‘thank you’ before taking a sip. “Want to get out of here? I’m done for the night.” You raised your eyebrow, “wow. What a gentleman.” He must’ve realized what that sounded like before he started to sputter, apologizing and saying that’s not when he meant. He look confused when you started to laugh. “I know what you meant. But you are drunk and I don’t have a car.”
He lowered his eyebrows. “Right.” You pulled out your phone, getting ready to call a cab. “I’ll call you a cab and get you one while I tell Charles where I’m going.” “You’re coming with me?” You nodded, “yeah, I’m don’t for tonight too. I’ll help you to your room because you are not as sober as you think you are and then I’m heading back to my hotel.”
You went in, telling Max with a stern finger in his direction to ‘stay where he was’ while you went to grab a bottle of water and tell Charles where you were going. He didn’t approve, warning you to be careful and not fall for anything, but you assured him you were fine.
That night you helped him to his hotel and to his room, finding a bottle of water and aspirin that was in your purse to set on his beside table. While you were leaving, he grabbed your wrist. “Will you take up my offer? Dinner sometime?” You smiled at him. “Sure, but ask me again when you’re sober so you know what you are doing.” The next morning on the plane, you got a text from Max, letting you know he got your number from someone and that he still wanted to take you out for dinner. You agreed, setting a time and place.
That eventual dinner date led to now, almost five years into your relationship. Charles was a bit upset, but after a ‘talk’ with Max, he felt a little bit better about it, and he warmed up after awhile. Your brothers didn’t manage to scare him off. You had warned him, and talked with them about it, so that helped a little.
It was the 2024 Bahrain Grand Prix. You sat in the Ferrari garage talking with your brother and Carlos while also keeping track of your boyfriend during the free practice. You were sitting down in one of that chairs with the two men standing. You didn’t even notice something was happening until you felt something hit the back of your head. You let out a small ‘ouch’ while rubbing the back of your head. You tried not to make a scene, but the mechanic who had hit you let out a big ‘oh shit!’ which pulled everyone’s attention. I
Immediately your brother was on you making sure you were okay while Carlos went to chew out the mechanic. Through the pain in your head, and Charles calling for ice and a medical staff, you heard a mix of fast English and Spanish. It wasn’t until the ice was placed on your head that you started to refocus. “Est-ce que ça va (are you okay)?” You nodded, though regretted it immediately. “Ouais. Tout va bien (yeah. I’m fine).” Carlos eventually came over and pulled Charles away to let the doctor examine you. You told them you were fine and that Charles was exaggerating ━━ which they laughed at ━━ before checking you out anyway and clearing you.
Though you know better, you thought that Charles and Carlos would leave it, but you were wrong because later when you got back from the bathroom, you saw the two men talking to a very angry looking Max. When Max saw you, he left the boys and headed straight for you, using his hands to bend your head down and check the back of your head. “Are you okay? Were you hurt?” You rolled your eyes even though he couldn’t see it. “I feel like a monkey being inspected by another monkey.” He pulled your head back up so your eyes met his.
“Schatje.” “Max. I swear I’m fine, it was a mistake.” It was his turn to roll his eyes, “a mistake that shouldn’t happen.” You stars at him, unimpressed. “Max Emilian Verstappen if you do anything I’m not scratching your head tonight.” You told him as you walked away.
“Liefje! That’s not fair!”

chapter one: twists and turns - ln.4
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
summary: lando norris was a preppy asshole in secondary school, and you were the girl he despised. years later, you're a hot-shot sports lawyer rewriting the rules of the sport he calls home, and your paths cross, whether you want them to or not.
pairing: lando norris x fem! lawyer! reader
a/n: anything in orange and bold is the past
𓆝 𓆟𓆝 𓆟𓆝 𓆟𓆝 𓆟𓆝 𓆟𓆝
Lando stared at his alarm clock, waiting for it to go off in exactly one minute. He loved his off-season, but hated getting back into training. It made everything ten times harder, he was ten times more tired, and he had no more me-time.
Wales was nice, he thought, but after his exhausting day of test after test, all he really wanted was to be back in Monaco and somehow convince Max F to come over. He sat in his hotel room and felt that same pang of loneliness he’d been working his whole life to subdue. That feeling that settled itself deep in his chest and didn’t come out until he was with his friends or his family. He liked being with people, he was a people-person, but he also wanted something deeper. Something fulfilling. He looked out the window, Swansea was pretty beautiful, actually. The water was calm and the moon reflected off it, making it all look a bit more cinematic than it did during the day. His phone buzzed and he reached over his bed to grab it. 
Zak B: We need you back in Monaco tomorrow for a pretty exciting meeting 😃. See you there!
He groaned into his pillow. He was getting slightly disillusioned with F1. He had no chance if he didn’t win it this year, and no excuses. He just wanted the season to start already so he could get on with himself and prove that he learnt from everything last year. One chance. One more chance, or McLaren would drop him. 
𓆝 𓆟
He wasn’t sure what he was expecting when he walked into a Law firm, but it wasn’t this. His lawyers were all suit and tie-wearing, stuck up, and slightly pompous. This place seemed pretty fun to be honest. There were notice boards up for ‘trainee-activities’, free seminars on cool shit, and it was in the mountains, overlooking all of Monté-Carlo. 
“This way please,” a young woman directed him to a long board room, where half the grid already sat, with a large number of older drivers too, and all the current team principals, with some oldies as well. He sat between Max and Jenson, greeting them both. 
“What’s this about?” He turned to Jenson. He just shrugged and smiled. 
“Not sure, just got invited, said it was important,” he explained. 
Lando looked across the table at Oscar, who had definitely just rolled out of bed. He kicked him under the table, and brought him to full attention. 
“Ouch,” Oscar deadpanned, kicking Lando’s foot back. “What?”
Lando smirked, watching Oscar's reaction. “What’s all this about?” 
He shrugged. “Andrea just sent me a text.” 
Suddenly, another door opened and 4 people stepped out, but he couldn’t really make out who they were, but the room went silent anyway. One of them turned around and looked, smiling at some of the drivers, then turned back and sent more hushed whispers to his colleagues.
Another one turned around, smiling at the group. “You’re almost all here, so I guess we’ll get started,” he announced and all eyes were curiously watching him. “We know we’ve been pretty secretive about what this meeting is about, but trust us, we think you’ll be happy to know that it’s about the rules of F1.”
And then you turned around, and Lando’s world was flipped on its side. His eyes probably shot out of his head like a cartoon character, so much so that Oscar gave him a weird look. But he didn’t look at Oscar, he couldn’t. Not when you were right in front of him for the first time in years. 
“I’m Dr. Y/l/n,” you smiled. “This is Mr. Davidson, Ms. Riley, and Ms. Ray, my associates. I’m an expert in sports law, and Mr. Davidson here is my trainee. I’ve worked especially in Rugby and Rally Racing law, as have my three colleagues here, and we are here to speak to you about making the rules of F1, and motorsport in general, a lot more fair for the drivers and governing body,” you explained. “Any questions before we get started?” 
Everyone was quiet, and Lando was too busy looking at you to notice the question. 
“Great,” you smiled at the table. “I’ll let Mr. Davidson take it away,” you turned to him, and for a split second- Lando swore up and down- he saw him smirk at you. Lando wasn’t listening to the rule changes you all wanted to make, he was too busy watching you shuffle through papers and add notes as Mr.Davidson spoke. He had a scowl plastered on his face from the second that man opened his mouth. Yet, you stood there, laughing at his stupid law puns, helping him out when he got lost, and adding in bits he clearly had forgotten. You’d changed, clearly. Lando could remember doing a group project with you, back in Year 8, you were a fucking dictator. If he spelt one word wrong, misused one comma, you’d find it and berate him. The scowl only deepened.
“And now moving on to why we’re doing this. We asked the FIA about changing to a law-like system, and they were strongly against it, but we went to the owner of F1, Mr. Domenicali, and he agreed this needed to happen. We’re working with the FIA here, so don’t expect everything to turn out just perfect, I’m sure they’ll still be difficult to work with, but we want to get as close to fair as we can. Now, we’re handing out pages of paper to everyone at the table and we want your opinions on the rules right now, write specific rules that need changing and how you’d change them, give us your opinions on the system in place now and how we can fix them, we want as much input as possible,” you smiled to the group as the others handed out pages of paper and pens to everyone. George, of course, began writing a novel on his page. Oscar jotted down some ideas. Jenson wrote about 10 words. Lando just stared at his page. Then wrote:
Call me. XXX XXX XXX
And he held his paper up to be collected like he was in school. He saw how reluctant you were to grab his paper, but you took it anyway. 
You were less than impressed to see what he’d written and he could see it on your face. You looked at him for the first time, and all he did was smirk back and wave. You crumpled up his page and handed him a new sheet of paper. 
He was happy with himself. He missed this, these secret moments between you two, the ones that made him feel better about himself. He liked how no one saw, and no one noticed. He liked that it was just you and him, and nothing could change that.
𓆝 𓆟
“What’s with you and Dr. Y/l/n?” Oscar mused as they sat in the lobby, waiting to be given their ‘buddy’. 
Lando stared back at him. “What do you mean?” Oscar was like… the least socially conscious person he'd ever known, surely he wasn’t being that obvious, right? 
Oscar raised an eyebrow. “Do you think I’m fucking blind mate?” 
Lando shrugged with a hopeful smirk. “Yes?”
“Dude, come on. How do you know her?” 
“School,” he relieved. “But it’s not like we were friends. We just… knew each other.”
Oscar nodded, satisfied with his answer. If only he knew how complicated it really was. 
ᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺ
“This is Y/n Y/l/n, she’s new in school, please show her around,” the Principal, Ms. Browne smiled at Lando. “Your parents know each other, correct?”
In the loosest sense of the term, Lando thought. He knew who you were, he’d seen you at some parties his parents had dragged him to. You were like every other girl at the school, a prim, proper, prickly, princess. At least, that’s what his brain told him, because he’d literally rather do algebra than show the new girl around the school. 
You answered for him. “We do, yes. Thank you Miss.”
You were so polite. So polished. It pissed him off, and he couldn’t even tell why. He rolled his eyes and slid off his chair, mumbling a small “Come on, princess,” as he showed you to the door. 
You left the principal’s office behind him, carrying your books. He was short for his age, and he still sounded a bit young for his age, but you didn’t really mind. You knew he was into racing, and your dad followed his career more than he followed your life, so you hated him already. His rudeness and stand-offish behaviour just added fuel to the flames. 
“So, you’d you move here?” he asked, though he was clearly uninterested in the answer. 
“Work,” you answered simply. He nodded. 
“You sing, right?” he asked and you nodded. “What show are you doing?”
“Into the Woods.”
“Have you done it before?” he asked because… well he wanted you to keep talking. He didn’t want some awkward silence he’d have to fill with his own opinions and life, because there wasn’t much there. He wasn’t super into musicals (by any means), but he knew who you were, specifically because his mum was always raving about you to him. You were her friend's daughter, and you were apparently the next Broadway talent. He knew who you were. He knew every show you’d ever been in, mostly because his mum dragged him along when he wasn’t racing. 
“Nope,” you shook your head. “But it’s pretty simple.”
He nodded. “Alright, well, this is your dorm block. You have a map, and I am no longer needed. Goodbye,” he said, before walking back across the campus to his own dorm. His friends were much too happy to know how it went, walking the new girl around the school, it would’ve been cool if it were anyone but you. 
So he just put their gossip to bed by calling you socially awkward and boring.
ᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺᆺ
“Mr. Norris, you’ll be with Mr. Davidson over here,” Sierra, Oscar’s trainee explained. Mr. Davidson sat opposite him with a smile. 
He lifted his hand to shake it. “Call me Liam,” He had a firm handshake, fucking hell. “I’m really excited to be working with you on this. I think you’re a brilliant driver.” 
Just then, Lando caught sight of you over his shoulder and again, all his attention went straight to you. Liam stared at him for a second. “Everything alright?” he asked. 
Lando nodded, his eyes trained on you as you gathered your things, he noticed the way your shirt clung to your body, the way your hair fell, the way your slacks were tight in all the right places. You were perfect. “Who’s Y/n going with?” he asked, without even thinking. 
Liam looked even more confused. “I didn’t you two know each other, small world, eh?” he questioned, chuckling. “And she’s taking the team bosses and some retired drivers. She’ll be at the same amount of races as us though, so you'll get time to catch up-”
“I want her,” he stated, leaning back in his chair and crossing his arms. “Her or I’m not doing it.” 
Liam’s face fell, and Lando counted it as a personal win. Oscar covered his face with his hands, embarrassed by his teammates' antics. “Umm, I’ll have to go talk to her about that-”
“Go. I’ll wait,” Lando smiled, looking every bit the aggressor he was being. He looked smug. 
Liam got up and went into a room (what he assumed to be your office), and a few seconds later came out telling him to go in. 
He opened the door and popped his head in. There you were, sitting at a desk behind a large screen, glasses perched dangerously close to falling off your nose. You stopped your vicious typing to look up at him expectantly. “This a good time?” he smirked. You were scowling. You rolled your eyes and went back to your furious typing as he sat down. He looked around your office. Your diplomas on the walls, pictures of you at various events and charity fundraisers, pictures of you and your team (Liam was right beside you in every single one, but he let it slide for a moment). You had a whole life he’d known nothing about. A subtle ache settled itself in his chest as a sort of… guilt blossomed. You had a whole life he knew nothing about, and he had no one to blame but himself-
“What the fuck is your problem?” you demanded, turning your attention to him. 
He chuckled. “That wasn’t very professional.” 
“Lando,” you groaned, regaining your professionalism. “What do you want from me? I didn’t choose this job, I got chosen for the role. I’m managing a team of more than 50 people alone, while doing my duties to speak to all the team bosses and take some work off the plates of my employees. I cannot possibly also talk to you every few days about your experiences with the FIA and the rules,” you huffed. “You have Liam, he’s a great lawyer, trust me.” 
Lando’s mood soured at your casual use of his first name. “Then I won’t do it.” 
You sighed. “You’re only doing yourself a disservice by not doing it, but we can’t force you,” you went back to your typing for a moment. “Close the door on your way out and send Liam in, will you?” 
Reluctantly, he got up and left you to your typing. He knew you needed his opinion, he was one of the other drivers most heavily penalised last year. 
“I’ll wait here,” Lando nodded as Liam went back into your office. 
But he made a mistake. He didn’t close the door after him. 
“You two know each other?” Liams asked. You sighed. 
“Not really, just in passing.” Lie. “He doesn't want to do it, He doesn’t have to.”
“We need his opinion though,” he sighed. “I know he sucks but… we need him.”
“Well I don’t have the time, Liam. I don’t have the time anymore. He’s just trying to rile me up-”
“Maybe I could take the retired drivers off you and you could just do the team bosses and Norris?” Liam offered. 
You were silent for a moment. Then groaned. “I really don’t want to.”
Liam chuckled. “Well, we all have to do things we don't want to do, Princess.”
Lando saw red, but listened further. 
“I guess you’re right. Tell him I’ll see him in Australia.” 
“Alrighty, thanks boss.”
Australia. Right. 
𓆝 𓆟
Pole position, shitty weather, and a win anyway. Good weekend. 
He brushed you off as the celebrations started, but when he saw you chatting with some of his engineers, gathering information, he knew he should speak to you. He was pulled away by the media before he could, and you ended up sending Sierra to do his post-race breakdown. You’d already felt for Monaco.  
Shit.

— f1 boys and the moment they go “fuck it”
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
˒ ⌕ LANDO NORRIS
you’re both a little drunk, but sober enough to know what you’re doing. he loves testing your limits, so he makes a bet with you over something trivial, promising a “prize” if you win. when you win and smile victoriously, he laughs and says, “i guess i owe you something special, right?” you nod, ready to receive whatever it is. he leans in, eyes shining, and whispers, “i hope this counts,” before giving you a kiss that feels playful and intense at the same time.
˒ ⌕ GEORSE RUSSELL
you’ve always had a fun friendship, where you could joke around and have fun with each other all the time, and tonight was no different. you’ve been teasing him all night, playfully testing his limits. he’s been patient, smiling, until you say something that pushes him over the edge, “oh you want to kiss me so bad right now,” you say playfully as he wouldn’t stop looking at your lips. he looks serious for a moment and you think he doesn’t like what you said, but he just gets even closer, his voice low and intense, “you have no idea how much,” before leaning in and kissing you, finally giving in to what he’s wanted for so long.
˒ ⌕ SEBASTIAN VETTEL
you're alone in your room while music plays. you thought you were alone and he was in the living room, but he was silently watching you sway, mesmerized. he always admired you from afar and never hid it, but at that moment, something changes inside him like never before. he thought a lot before doing it, but it was only when he stopped thinking that he finally did it: he approaches, puts a hand on your waist and, without saying a word, pulls you close, holding you as if you were the only two people in the world. you were startled by his sudden attitude, but you quickly melted in his arms as he hugged you and pulled you even closer to him while your lips were danced together.
˒ ⌕ CARLOS SAINZ
you’d never argued before, but at that moment, your nerves were on edge; you were both frustrated with each other. the room fell silent as the tension shifted, and he was staring at you, breathless. you tried to look away from him, but something about him held you back; he was a mess. suddenly, he closed the distance, pressing his lips to yours in a kiss that spoke of all the unspoken emotions between you, finally letting everything that had been bottled up come out.
˒ ⌕ CHARLES LECLERC
he watches you from afar as you talk and laugh with another guy, and even though he knows he has no claim, it still stirs something primal in him; he just couldn't stop staring at you, and you noticed it. later, when you're alone, you tease him about it and ask him why he couldn't stop looking at you like that. he knows you were having fun with the situation, but he wasn't. you thought it was no big deal, but for him it changed everything. "i hated seeing you with someone else," he finally admits, serious as he stares at you. you look at him for a few seconds and smile, he smiles back and takes your face, finally kissing you - and claiming you his.
˒ ⌕ LEWIS HAMILTON
it’s late and you’re saying goodbye after spending the whole day together; he loves being with you, but he hates the time to say goodbye. it feels like time passes so quickly with you but so painfully slowly when you’re apart. he also knows that you hate goodbyes, so you’re lingering at the door, neither wanting to part. he takes your hand, holding it a little tighter, his thumb gently stroking your skin. “maybe… i don’t want to say goodbye yet,” he says and his eyes shine at you. he leans in, finally pressing his lips to yours as he places his hand on the back of your neck and the other on your waist.
˒ ⌕ OSCAR PIASTRI
it’s late and you’re both tired from the party you just attended. people have started to leave, but you’re too busy with each other to care. you’re in the garden of the huge house, sitting on the grass and admiring the stars. he looks at you laughing at something he told you, your voice soft and open, and something inside him snaps. his heart starts to beat faster as he’s mesmerized by you. he blurts out, “sorry, i can’t pretend anymore,” and pulls you closer to him, his hands shaking with anticipation and desire as he finally takes your face carefully and kisses you, completely melting into the taste of you.
˒ ⌕ LIAM LAWSON
he loves listening to you and always listens attentively. but lately he hasn't been able to hold himself back: whenever you start talking, he has to look away or think about something else, because he's on the verge of finally giving in to you. you have a surprising effect on him that he's never felt before, and today was no different: while you're talking, he suddenly goes quiet, his eyes fixed on yours with an intense gaze. "sorry," he murmurs, "i know you're saying something important, but i just… i can't concentrate when you're so close." he's also surprised by what he just said, but he doesn't wait for an answer, pulling you into that kiss he's been holding back for so, so long.
˒ ⌕ MAX VERSTAPPEN
you’re both running to take cover from an unexpected downpour, and you’re both soaking wet, laughing and out of breath. he looks at you, hair drenched and eyes shining as you laugh, and realizes he can’t contain himself anymore. you’re the most beautiful and charming person he’s ever met in his life, and he can’t hide it anymore. he’s afraid of losing you; of losing the opportunity to finally be with you. so, without saying a word, he gently caresses your cheek and smiles with you before pulling you into a passionate kiss, with the rain running down both of you. in that moment, he felt like he was floating. in that moment, nothing else mattered, it was just you and him in the world.

THE BOOTH - LN4
Tumblr media
summary : The booth. A notorious club in the heart of london, where y/n and lando met again after two years of silence.
listen up : fewtrell!reader. She sits in his lap. no smut, just hot and suggestive. creepy guy in the beginning! Prob my fav short i’ve written omg
word count : 1732
⋆。‧˚⋆
“No.” I giggle out of uncomfortableness at the man getting closer to me.
“C’mon, let me buy you a drink.” the man reeks of alcohol and has fucked up teeth. I’ve seen enough. I pull down the bottom of my mini dress as I stand.
“No.” I repeat, pushing past him. The club is crowded and sticky, I see my friends but a hand around my wrist pulls me back.
“Really? Too good for me?” He scoffs in my face but the next thing I know he’s being pushed away from me.
“She is.” The voice comes from the man in front of me, the guy who pushed this dickhead away. “Piss off. She’s with me.”
The guy seems intimidated enough because he gives me a dirty look and leaves. “Thank y-” I pause when the man turns around.
I pause because the man is my childhood crush, brothers best friend, and fucking formula one driver.
“Lando?” I’m genuinely shocked that the britt I haven’t seen in two years is standing in front of me.
“Y/n!?” He looks me up and down, his mouth open, “Fuck… You look good.” I could say the same for him, in a navy button down, jeans, and his jewelry adorning his hands. He’s ridiculously hot.
I laugh, “Careful Lan, my brother could be lurking.” I switch my weight onto one leg as he smirks.
Max loves Lando. Max loves me.
Therefore, Max HATED the thought of us even speaking. We were all friends in childhood but our teens hit and suddenly I was completely off limits. I’m pretty sure he noticed how much I asked about Lando and swore that he would kill both of us if anything happened.
Someone walks behind him, causing him to get closer, his hand brushing against my hip, “Don’t scare me, yeah?”
I bite my lip at the thought, we start walking across the room, Lando’s hand firmly on me now as he ‘guides’ me. “Don’t worry. Idiots in Monaco… which means we have free rein.”
I see his jaw clench, his drink slide onto his lips again, “I’d like to keep my friendship.”
“I’d like to lose my panties.” I’m quick to reply, messing with Lando used to be my favorite thing.
You see, Lando is Max’s best friend. He feels bad lying and this would definitely be considered a betrayal of trust.
But for me… Max is my brother. I can lie and do whatever I want with no remorse. Lando is something I could do easily and as much as it would make me happy to piss off my brother, Norris has always been that one guy in the back of my mind.
“Christ Y/n. Missed your remarks.” We make it to the wall, it’s a bit quieter over here.
“You mean you missed my flirting?” I look up at him, he just bites his lip, hiding his smile.
“I missed you.” He surprises me with this.
“I missed you too.” I push my hand through my hair, “How’ve you been?”
“Good. Really good.” He smiles big and I know it’s because of his racing.
“Watched your win in Zandvoort.” I sigh, “Simply lovely was brutal.” He rolls his eyes, laughing and leaning his head back on the wall.
“Not you too!”
“It was hilarious! I liked it!” I hit his arm and the way he looks at me… it’s like every emotion that I've tucked away and only opened up in the darkness of my bedroom after midnight, comes out then. “I like this too.”
My hand goes to the back of his neck, playing with his curls that shape his baby mullet.
“Don’t do that.” He shakes his head, his eyes cut into me, his voice weak.
“What?” I say innocently.
“You always do this.”
“Do what, Norris?” Lando never was that much taller than me, but something about the two passed years has changed that.
His tongue runs over his teeth, he’s about to say something but two guys appear next to us, “Mate! We’ve been looking for you!” Another British man speaks, Alex Albon to be exact.
“Found a friend?” Carlos sainz eyes me, dressed in all black.
I smile at the drivers, Lando eyes Carlos. “Max’s sister. Y/n.” They both nod and look much too interested in how Lando says it, “Y/n… this is Alex and Carlos.”
“Pleasure.” I smile wide. I am an F1 fan, it’s a bit weird seeing Lando on the grid but I’ll sit and watch with Max almost every weekend that we’re together.
“Pleasures all ours! I’ve always wanted to meet Lando’s childhood crush!” Lando hits Carlos, making him grab his stomach, “Worth it!” The Spanish man chokes out.
Lando scratches the back of his neck, not looking at me. “Are you here with anyone?” Alex asks me, I knew he would be nice.
“Yeah! I’m not sure where they are but…”
“That’s okay. You have us now!” Alex and I end up getting a drink, Lando stays back with Carlos who’s definitely teasing him.
I get a vodka lemonade and four shots. Alex and I are already best friends and laughing so hard that Carlos and Lando won’t stop asking us what’s so funny.
They don’t know that I showed Alex a photo of Lando and I as smurfs when we were five.
⋆。‧˚⋆
LANDO NORRIS
Describing Y/n is something i’ve done many times. To friends, for context in stories, but if i’d really describe her… I don’t think I would have an ending point.
She’s got long blonde hair. She cut it all off when she was fifteen and I almost fainted when I didn’t recognize her. She loved it.
She’s confident, you can see it in her walk. Her hips sway and the click of her heels is something I'll never forget.
When she talks to you, all attention is on you, her eyes are hazel, appearing brown in the dark but if you get close enough… you’ll see the green.
She never quite had an awkward stage, always been beautiful, probably always will be. I haven’t seen her in years yet she acts like I talked to her yesterday.
Y/n sucks on a lime after her shot, smiling and clapping her hands together, “God, I feel like i’m in highschool!”
I obviously didn’t go to school with her. She’s a year younger and Max would non stop complain about her. She was more popular than him, going out, and was basically friends with everyone.
I remind myself again that Max is the reason why my arm is around the couch and not her waist.
⋆。‧˚⋆
Y/N
“Norris!” I stand, holding out my hand, “Picture time.” I smile as he stands with me.
“What?” Carlos asks.
“Called the booth for a reason, Sainz!” I grin at the boys, gripping Lando’s hand tight and maneuvering us through the crowd.
There’s one photo booth in the back corner of the club. It’s notorious for famous photos and making everyone look good.
I look back at the boys who all look confused. All except Lando.
We came to the booth when Lando was in town from F2, we were 17 and 18. Max had gone off with some girl and we found ourselves in this exact booth.
We swore never to talk about it.
But I’m all for repeating history.
“Fewtrell…” He warns in my ear as we walk to the starred booth.
I glance back, dragging out his name, “Norris.”
He gets in first, unlike us as teens, only one person can fit. I smile and watch Lando’s face drop, I sit down on his lap, “Playing with fire here, love.” he says in my ear.
“I don’t mind getting burned.” He slips two coins in, his hand moving to my waist and holding me steady.
We smile first.
SNAP
I move a bit and give him bunny ears.
SNAP
Lando clears his throat, gripping my skin tighter as he looks at me. I move again, my skirt riding up a bit. “Trying to kill me?”
I smile and kiss his cheek, feeling something hard against me.
SNAP
“Of course.” I look at him, “The memories in here… You remember?”
“I’d be an idiot to forget.”
His hand moves down my hip, closer to my thigh. I look at him again as the photo booth starts up for the second time, “I shouldn’t.” He whispers, my face centimeters from his. I hear the whistles outside.
I shift once more, turning more to him. He groans, his head falling backwards and his eyes closing, “Give me a good reason.”
SNAP
He opens his eyes, meeting mine. I know I've got him. My hand rests on his neck, my rings pressing against his skin. He mumbles something but it’s too loud, “Speak up, Norris.”
“Never spoken.” His eyes flick to my lips, trying to get me to promise this is a secret.
“Never ever.” He leans in closer.
SNAP
“Come on rule breaker… I believe in you.” I whisper in his ear and it breaks him. I’m pulling his head closer to me, his lips on mine, a relief like no other.
He grabs ass, pulling me closer in the tiny space. I slip my tongue in his mouth, whimpering a bit. He bites my lip. I’m melting into him. It’s hot and needy but so much more than I could have ever wanted.
SNAP
Kissing Lando at Seventeen was scandalous and drunken. Kissing Lando at Twenty Three flat out sexy.
“Need you…” He whispers into the kiss which makes me almost come undone right then and there.
Someone bangs on the booth, “Alright Lovebirds!” Lando laughs but I'm the one to pull away.
“I can’t leave this booth.” He says quickly, his face red and sweaty.
“You’ll be fine-” I understand what he’s talking about when I go to leave and something brushes against my leg, “Oh.”
He looks away from me, blushing.
I smile, proud of myself for the boner and his pink cheeks, “Aw come on! I’ll cover you.” I wink and he rolls his eyes, He walks out behind me, his arms firmly on my waist again.
The two drivers grin at us, “You covering a boner?” Carlos starts but gets punched for the second time tonight by Lando. He holds his stomach again, “Still worth it!”

The picture in his wallet
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
The soft hum of the paddock faded in the background as Carlos sat on a bench just outside the motorhome, staring at the worn edges of the photo in his hand. He’d looked at it so many times over the years that the corners had started to curl. In the picture, a newborn baby lay wrapped in a pale pink blanket, her little mouth forming a tiny ‘o’ and her eyes scrunched closed. The name Yn had been handwritten neatly on the back, along with the date and time she was born.
He hadn’t been there for any of it. Not the pregnancy, not the birth, not the first word, not the first step. Fourteen years of absence, only connected to her by this photograph—and the aching guilt he carried like a second skin.
"Hey," came a voice, snapping him out of his thoughts.
Carlos quickly slipped the picture back into his wallet and looked up. Charles stood beside him, arms crossed, eyes gentle.
"You're doing it again, aren’t you?" Charles asked, sitting down beside him.
Carlos sighed. "Just thinking."
"You were holding the picture."
Carlos rubbed his eyes with his thumb and forefinger. "I don’t even realize when I do it anymore. It just… happens."
Charles didn’t say anything at first. He simply nodded, his expression unreadable.
"It’s been fourteen years," Carlos said eventually. "And I’ve never even heard her voice. I don’t know if she likes racing, or if she plays the piano, or hates spinach or—"
"Does she know about you?" Charles asked gently.
Carlos shook his head slowly. "I don’t think so. Alma and I agreed back then… it’d be better if I wasn’t around unless I was ready to really be there. I wasn’t. I was seventeen, Charles. I was a stupid kid who thought I could chase dreams and outrun responsibility."
"You weren’t stupid," Charles said softly. "Just scared."
Carlos gave a hollow laugh. "Still am."
Later that evening, Rebecca found Carlos sitting on the couch in their hotel room, the television playing a muted rerun of last season’s highlights. She walked over, placing a kiss on the top of his head before settling beside him, tucking her feet underneath her.
“You saw the photo again?” she asked gently.
He nodded.
Rebecca reached for his hand and intertwined her fingers with his. “You ever think about calling Alma?”
“All the time,” Carlos admitted. “But I always stop myself. What would I say? ‘Hi, it’s Carlos. I abandoned you both fourteen years ago. Mind if I drop in and ruin everything?’”
“That’s not what would happen,” Rebecca said firmly. “You’re not the same boy who left. You’re a man now. You’ve grown. And you still care.”
Carlos looked down at his lap. “I don’t even know what kind of father I could be.”
“You won’t know unless you try,” she replied. “But I think you'd be amazing. You’ve always had so much love to give. I see it every day—with your family, with your friends, with me.”
Carlos looked at her, eyes flickering with something unreadable. “I told you about her the day we got together. You could’ve walked away. Most people would’ve.”
Rebecca smiled. “But I’m not most people. And I stayed because I saw your heart. I know what she means to you, even if you’ve never met her.”
He leaned into her, resting his head against her shoulder.
“I want to meet her,” he whispered. “I don’t want to go through the rest of my life not knowing who she is.”
“Then let’s figure it out,” she said, rubbing slow circles on the back of his hand. “Together.”
The next day at the track, Carlos pulled Lando aside between sessions. They found a quiet corner near the back of the garage where the mechanics couldn’t hear them.
“I’ve been thinking about her again,” Carlos began.
Lando blinked. “Yn?”
Carlos nodded.
“She’d be… fourteen now, right?” Lando said, leaning against the wall. “That’s wild, man. Fourteen.”
Carlos smiled faintly. “Yeah. She’s probably taller than me by now.”
Lando chuckled. “No one’s taller than you. Except George.”
Carlos rubbed the back of his neck. “I think I want to reach out. Maybe just talk to Alma. Ask how she is. Ask how Yn is. If she’s okay.”
Lando’s smile softened. “About time, huh?”
“I’m terrified,” Carlos admitted.
“Good. Means it matters,” Lando replied. “But look, you’ve got us. You’ve got Charles, me, Rebecca. You won’t be doing this alone.”
Carlos nodded, but the knot in his chest remained.
That night, Carlos stared at the message on his phone screen for over twenty minutes.
Hi, Alma. It’s Carlos. I hope this isn’t a bad time. I was wondering if we could talk. About Yn.
His finger hovered over the “send” button.
Rebecca emerged from the bathroom, saw him frozen with the phone in hand, and quietly sat beside him.
“Need a push?” she asked.
“I’m scared of what she’ll say,” Carlos murmured. “Or worse—what if she doesn’t reply at all?”
Rebecca reached out and touched his face. “Then you’ll know you tried. And maybe, just maybe, she’s been waiting for you to do this too.”
Carlos looked down at the message again.
And then he pressed send.
Hours passed. They ate dinner in silence, and Carlos kept glancing at his phone every five seconds. Rebecca tried to distract him with stories from her day, but his mind was elsewhere.
It wasn’t until almost midnight that his phone buzzed.
Carlos nearly dropped it as he scrambled to read the notification.
Hi, Carlos. I was surprised to hear from you. Yn’s doing well. She’s incredible. If you’d like to talk, I’d be open to it.
His hands trembled as he read it out loud.
“She responded,” he whispered. “She responded.”
Rebecca smiled and wrapped her arms around him. “See? That’s the first step.”
Carlos didn’t realize he was crying until he felt Rebecca wipe a tear from his cheek.
“I don’t know where this is going,” he said.
“You don’t need to,” she replied. “Just take it one step at a time.”
Carlos looked at the photo in his wallet again. And for the first time in years, hope started to bloom in his chest. Maybe, just maybe, the day he’d finally meet Yn wasn’t so far away after all.
Carlos was quiet all morning.
Not the kind of quiet where he hummed to himself while making coffee or scrolled through his phone lazily. No, this was the kind of quiet where every movement seemed careful, deliberate—like his thoughts were louder than anything around him. He hadn't even finished his toast. It just sat there, untouched.
Rebecca noticed. Of course, she did. She always did.
“Babe,” she said softly, placing her hand on his arm. “It’s going to be okay.”
Carlos looked at her, eyes a little wide, his leg bouncing beneath the table. “I haven’t seen her in fourteen years, Rebe. What if she hates me? What if she doesn’t even want to know me? What if I say something stupid? What if—”
Rebecca pressed a gentle finger to his lips.
“Carlos. Stop.”
He exhaled. “I don’t know how.”
She smiled, cupping his face. “Then let me remind you. You’re kind. You’re honest. And you’ve wanted this for so long. Whatever happens today, you’re taking the first step. That’s brave.”
Carlos nodded, though his heart still thudded against his ribs. He was scared. Terrified, actually. But beneath it all, a flicker of hope had been growing ever since Alma replied to his message.
Her text had been short, but warm:
Hi Carlos,
Yes, I think it’s time. Let’s meet this Saturday? I’ll be at the café near the park at 3pm. Looking forward to seeing you.
– Alma
And now it was Saturday. Now it was 2:57pm.
They walked toward the small café together, fingers laced. Carlos kept rubbing his thumb against Rebecca’s hand like it grounded him.
“Do I look alright?” he asked, for the fifth time.
Rebecca chuckled. “You look perfect.”
The café was quiet. Not many people, just the hum of the coffee machine, soft chatter, the clinking of spoons against porcelain.
And there she was.
Alma.
She looked almost the same, but more mature—graceful, with soft brown hair pulled into a low ponytail, wearing a cream blouse and jeans. Her face lit up when she saw them.
“Carlos!” she said, rising to her feet.
He froze for half a second, then stepped forward. They hugged. It wasn’t awkward. It wasn’t weird. It was warm. Familiar, somehow.
“It’s been forever,” she said quietly against his shoulder.
“Yeah,” he breathed, pulling back, eyes a little misty. “Too long.”
She turned to Rebecca and smiled. “You must be Rebecca. It’s so good to meet you.”
Rebecca stepped forward, smiling, and they exchanged the traditional two cheek kisses. “Thank you so much for agreeing to this. Really.”
Alma waved it off. “I always knew this moment would come. I’m glad it’s now.”
They sat down, the three of them. For a while, Alma and Rebecca talked like they were old friends. It was surprisingly easy. They chatted about the weather, Madrid traffic, how difficult it is to get a decent croissant in the city.
Carlos sat there, nodding occasionally, but mostly staring at the cappuccino in front of him like it held all the answers. He could barely speak, but his heart was roaring in his chest.
Finally, when their drinks were brought over, he cleared his throat.
“Can I ask about her?” he said softly, voice just slightly shaky. “About Yn?”
Alma smiled, warm and proud, and it was like someone turned on a light inside her. “Of course.”
Carlos leaned forward, both hands wrapped around his cup.
“She’s fourteen now,” Alma began. “Turning fifteen in November. She’s tall. Taller than me now, which she loves to point out every chance she gets. She’s got this wild, curly hair that she hates but everyone else loves. She’s obsessed with chocolate cupcakes. Like, genuinely obsessed. She bakes them twice a week.”
Rebecca smiled. “That’s adorable.”
“Oh, she’s full of surprises. She’s into fashion—like really into it. Always sketching, always cutting up old clothes to make new outfits. Says she wants to work for Vogue one day. She’s got mood boards all over her room.”
Rebecca’s eyes widened. “That’s amazing. Creative and determined.”
Alma nodded. “Yeah, she’s very driven. And oh—you’ll love this—she has a huge crush on Gavi. The football player.”
Carlos couldn’t help it. He laughed. “Seriously?”
“She insists she’s going to marry him. Says it with complete confidence.”
“Good taste,” Rebecca joked, and they all chuckled.
Then Alma reached into her bag and pulled out a small stack of photos. She held them like they were precious, handing them over one by one.
“Here she is at three,” she said, sliding the picture across the table.
A toddler in a cupcake-covered dress, frosting on her cheeks, big brown eyes sparkling with mischief.
Carlos stared.
“And here she’s five, at her kindergarten play. She was a sunflower.”
A smaller version of Alma, smiling shyly in a yellow costume.
“Here at eleven. That was during her ‘detective phase’. She wore that trench coat for three months straight.”
Carlos smiled wider, but his eyes were misting.
“And this one… this is her school picture from this year.”
Alma slid the latest photo to him with extra care. A fourteen-year-old girl with a confident, thoughtful gaze. Her curly hair framed her face. She looked like Alma, yes—but there was something in the eyes. Something familiar. Something Carlos couldn’t stop staring at.
“She’s beautiful,” Rebecca whispered, looking over his shoulder. “You raised an amazing young girl, Alma.”
Alma looked down, visibly touched. “Thank you.”
Carlos was still staring at the picture. His thumb grazed the edge of the print.
“Can I—?” he asked, barely audible.
“Of course,” Alma said, pushing it toward him. “It’s yours.”
He held it like it was made of glass, like it might disappear if he blinked.
The room blurred around him. All he could see was her. His daughter. The girl in the photograph. The one he'd thought about every day since that first message. Since the picture Alma had sent after her birth. The one that lived in his wallet, aged and worn.
He interrupted the gentle conversation between the two women, voice soft, yet determined.
“Alma…”
She turned to him. “Yes?”
“I want to meet her.”
Alma blinked, lips parting slightly. She looked at him, then at the picture in his hand.
“I know I should’ve asked sooner. Years ago. But I was scared. I didn’t know how. I didn’t want to confuse her or… I don’t know. But I want to now. If she wants to. I’d love to meet her. Talk to her. Just… see her.”
Alma didn’t answer immediately. Her eyes were thoughtful.
“I have to ask her,” she said honestly. “She’s old enough now to decide that for herself. But I promise you, Carlos, I’ll talk to her. I’ll tell her everything. And I’ll write you.”
He nodded slowly, the weight of hope sitting on his chest.
“That’s all I can ask for,” he whispered.
When they stood to leave, Alma hugged them both. “I’m really glad we did this.”
“So am I,” Rebecca said, and she meant it.
Carlos didn’t speak much on the walk back. His hand never left the pocket where he had placed the picture. His thumb rubbed over the edge again and again.
“She’s perfect,” he murmured once, more to himself than anyone else.
Rebecca leaned her head on his shoulder. “She really is.”
And in the quiet of the Madrid afternoon, as they walked down cobbled streets with sunlight flickering between trees, Carlos felt something he hadn’t felt in years.
He felt like he was one step closer to finally meeting the girl who’d been in his heart since the day she was born.
He didn’t know what Alma would say, what Yn would choose. But he had hope.
And for now, that was enough.
It had been a few weeks since the café meeting, and Carlos had stared at that school photo every single day since. It had a permanent spot on the console table in their hallway now, framed with gentle care. Sometimes he picked it up and just looked at it in awe, as if his heart couldn't quite believe this was real—that this girl, this bright-eyed young woman with the softest smile, was his daughter.
So when the message from Alma arrived, his heart nearly stopped.
Hey, Carlos. I talked to Yn. She said… she’d like to meet you.
Carlos reread it five times, his eyes wide, hands trembling. Then he bolted into the kitchen.
“Rebecca!” he called, holding up the phone like it was some sort of ancient artifact. “She wants to meet me. Yn wants to meet me!”
Rebecca looked up from the fruit she was cutting, blinking before her face bloomed with a smile. “Oh my god, baby. Really?”
“Yes,” he breathed, already pacing. “I mean, Alma said she talked to her and Yn agreed. We’re meeting at their house. It’s—oh god, it’s happening.”
Rebecca came over, wrapping her arms around him. “You’re going to be amazing. Just… be you. Gentle, warm. She’ll see the person I see.”
Carlos pressed his forehead to hers, clutching her hands tightly. “I’m scared,” he admitted in a whisper.
“I know,” Rebecca said, brushing her fingers through his hair. “But this is your moment. And hers. Let it happen slowly.”
The drive to Alma’s house was the longest one of his life.
He had the radio on, then off. Then back on. Then switched to a podcast. Then silence again. His hands gripped the steering wheel tightly. His heart wouldn’t stop racing, not even for a second.
When he finally parked in front of the quaint two-story home with blooming flowers in the windows, his breath hitched. This was where Yn had lived all these years. This was her world.
Alma opened the door before he could knock.
“Hi,” she said gently, smiling with something kind in her eyes. “You made it.”
Carlos gave a weak chuckle. “Barely. I think I had five panic attacks on the drive here.”
Alma smiled warmly and stepped aside. “Come in. She’s upstairs. I told her you’re here. I’ll go get her.”
Carlos stepped inside, immediately struck by how homey everything was. There were drawings pinned to a cork board, a piano in the corner with sheet music half open, photos lining the walls—most of them of Yn. There she was at the beach. In the kitchen, covered in flour. On Halloween, in a cat costume.
It was like walking into a museum of her life.
Alma disappeared upstairs, and Carlos stood frozen in the living room, his palms sweating. His breath caught when he heard soft footsteps coming down.
And then—there she was.
Yn.
Fourteen years old, dressed in a simple pair of jeans and an oversized white tee. Her long, dark hair was half up in a clip, a few strands framing her face. She had the same green eyes he’d seen in the photos, but seeing them in person knocked the air from his lungs. Her expression was guarded, lips pressed into a thin line. But she didn’t look angry. Just… uncertain.
“Hi,” she said quietly, her voice soft but laced with a teenage edge. “I’m Yn.”
Carlos’s eyes welled up instantly, and he nodded. “Hi, Yn. I’m… I’m Carlos.” He swallowed hard. “Thank you for agreeing to meet me.”
She sat down across from him, folding her arms as she sunk into the couch, her legs crossed beneath her. “My mom said I could decide.”
“I know,” he said gently. “And I’m really grateful. You look—well, you look amazing.”
She raised a brow, her lips twitching a bit like she was trying not to smile. “That’s a weird thing to say.”
Carlos chuckled nervously. “Yeah. Yeah, maybe. Sorry. I’m a little nervous.”
“I can tell,” she said, tilting her head. “You’re all red and stuff.”
He laughed for real that time, rubbing the back of his neck. “You’re sharp.”
A pause.
She looked down at her lap. “So… what do you do?”
Carlos perked up, grateful for the question. “I race cars. Professionally.”
“Like… in circles?”
He laughed again. “Sort of. It’s Formula 1. We race on tracks around the world. It’s… fast and a little dangerous, I guess. But I love it.”
“Huh,” she said, shrugging. “Sounds kinda cool, I guess.”
“I have friends in the sport,” he added. “They’re good people. And, um… I have a partner. Rebecca.”
“Mom told me,” Yn muttered. “She’s pretty.”
“She is,” he said with a fond smile. “And she’s really excited to meet you. She wanted to come today, but I thought maybe just us, for now.”
Yn nodded, fiddling with a thread on her sleeve. “That’s fine.”
Carlos watched her for a moment, drinking her in, every little movement. “What about you?” he asked. “Your mom told me you love fashion.”
Yn's face lit up ever so slightly. “I wanna work for Vogue someday.”
“Wow,” he breathed. “That’s amazing. You have big dreams.”
“I have mood boards,” she said, lifting her chin a little. “And sketches.”
“That’s… that’s really impressive, Yn. You must be really talented.”
She was silent for a beat, then looked back at him with a slightly narrowed gaze. “You talk a lot.”
Carlos blinked, then burst into a surprised laugh. “Guilty.”
Another pause. Then, shyly, she added, “It’s not… bad. Just different.”
He smiled. “I guess we’ll both get used to each other. Slowly.”
Yn studied him again, then looked at the floor.
“Can I go to my room now?” she asked after a few moments, her voice softer.
Carlos’s heart sank a little, but he nodded. “Of course. I don’t want to push you. I just… I’m really happy you gave me this chance.”
She stood, arms still crossed.
But then she hesitated. Reached into her pocket.
She held out a small folded piece of paper.
Carlos took it, his fingers brushing hers just barely. He looked at it, then at her.
“My number,” she mumbled. “Don’t call me. That’s cringe. Just text, okay?”
He swallowed hard, nodding. “I promise.”
She turned and left without another word, disappearing up the stairs.
Carlos just stood there, stunned, eyes fixed on the paper like it was a golden ticket.
Alma walked back in, smiling warmly. “She gave you her number?”
He nodded. “She said calling is cringe.”
Alma laughed. “Teenagers.”
“She’s perfect,” Carlos whispered. “She’s everything.”
Carlos couldn’t stop smiling the entire drive home.
He kept glancing at the piece of paper resting in the passenger seat, like it might vanish if he didn’t look at it often enough. A phone number—her phone number. Yn’s number. She had given it to him with that little flick of teenage nonchalance, like it wasn’t a huge deal. But to Carlos, it was everything.
He parked the car in the driveway, practically bursting into the house. Rebecca was in the kitchen, sipping tea and reading something on her tablet. She looked up at him with a curious smile.
“Well?” she asked, setting the tablet aside.
Carlos beamed. “She gave me her number.”
Rebecca’s eyes widened. “Really?”
He nodded like an overexcited child. “She said to only text though, because calling is ‘uncool.’” He made air quotes, mimicking Yn’s voice. Rebecca chuckled warmly and walked over to him, wrapping her arms around his waist.
“I’m so proud of you,” she whispered.
That night, Carlos sent a very careful message.
Hey. It’s me. Carlos. Just wanted to say it was really nice seeing you today. Thanks for giving me your number. I won’t call, promise.
The read receipt popped up almost immediately, followed by a short reply:
U better not call lol. That would be embarrassing.
And just like that, they started texting. Slowly at first—short replies, some emojis, a meme here and there. But soon, her messages grew longer. She started sending him TikToks. Screenshots of conversations with her friends. Memes where she’d tag him: this is literally you—a joke about dads who try to be cool but totally aren’t.
Carlos didn’t mind. He loved every second of it.
A few weeks later, Carlos worked up the nerve to ask her if she’d like to hang out sometime. Just the two of them.
Beach day? I’ll bring snacks. You bring sunscreen.
Yn replied after a while:
Sure. But don’t bring like…weird snacks. I’m serious.
Carlos smiled at the screen for a full minute.
The beach was warm and golden, the sea glimmering under the sun. Carlos had brought a small cooler with drinks and sandwiches (all thoroughly vetted by Rebecca beforehand to ensure they weren’t “weird”), and Yn showed up in denim shorts, a black tank top, and sunglasses that looked too grown-up for her age. Carlos’s heart skipped when he saw her.
“Hey,” she said, toeing off her sandals in the sand.
“Hey,” he replied, voice soft.
They sat on a beach towel, eating and watching the waves. Yn talked a little about school. Her friend group. A teacher she hated. The weird guy in math class. She showed him a selfie with her best friend, captioned chaos twins, and he laughed, genuinely interested in every word.
A few days later, he took her to Starbucks. She rolled her eyes when he ordered his coffee “like a dad.”
“You don’t need oat milk, Carlos,” she muttered. “You just think it makes you fancy.”
“Excuse me,” Carlos replied, placing a hand dramatically over his chest. “This is how champions drink coffee.”
She smirked, sipping her iced matcha latte.
“You’re so cringe,” she said.
“Thank you,” he said with a bow.
Their favorite day came when they wandered through the city together, Yn dragging him from store to store. She pointed out her favorite brands, showed him the exact pair of sneakers she wanted for her birthday, and even made him try on a ridiculous oversized hoodie.
“You look like a mushroom,” she said, stifling laughter.
Carlos posed in the mirror. “But a cool mushroom?”
“No,” she said flatly.
But she was smiling.
Carlos committed every single moment to memory.
Two months passed in a blink. Their bond grew stronger with every text, every shared meme, every inside joke. She still called him “Carlos,” but it didn’t hurt anymore. It was just her way—guarded, careful. But he could see the walls cracking.
Then, one day, out of the blue:
Hey. Do you think I could meet Rebecca sometime?
Carlos stared at the message, stunned.
Rebecca, sitting across from him on the couch, looked up from her book. “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing,” he whispered. “Nothing at all.”
He typed back quickly:
Of course. That would mean a lot to me. To both of us.
They met at a cozy lunch spot with outdoor seating. Rebecca dressed down to avoid being intimidating—jeans, sneakers, and a warm smile. Yn arrived a little late, phone in hand, earbuds slung around her neck.
“Hey,” she said, glancing at Rebecca.
Carlos stood, gently introducing them. “Yn, this is Rebecca. Rebecca, this is—well, you know.”
Yn sat down, crossing her arms. Rebecca offered a gentle, “It’s really nice to meet you.”
“You too,” Yn mumbled.
The first ten minutes were awkward, filled with clinks of cutlery and stilted small talk. But then Rebecca mentioned a TV show she liked—turns out, it was also one of Yn’s favorites.
And just like that, the ice broke.
“You actually like that character?” Yn said with disbelief. “He’s the worst.”
Rebecca laughed. “I know, right? That’s why I love him.”
Carlos just sat there, watching them with his heart full.
Six months later, things were different. Better. Yn came over for dinner often, stayed longer than she used to, even left a hoodie in their guest room once. Carlos refused to wash it. She was part of their home now.
One weekend, she asked to stay over. They ordered pizza and decided to watch a horror movie. Carlos wasn’t sure why he agreed—he hated horror—but Yn insisted it was “funny scary.”
They sat close on the couch—Carlos in the middle, Rebecca on his right, Yn on his left.
The movie started fine. Some cheap jump scares. Teenagers being dumb in the woods.
Then came a really good scare.
A ghost lunged at the screen, the sound design so loud Carlos flinched.
Yn gave a small scream and instinctively curled into Carlos’s side, burying her face in his chest, her hands fisting his shirt.
“Stop laughing, Papá” she mumbled, her voice muffled.
Carlos froze.
Rebecca turned to look at him, her mouth opening slightly.
Yn didn’t even notice what she said. She was too busy peeking at the screen, one eye open. Carlos just laughed softly, brushing a hand over her hair, holding her protectively.
“I got you,” he whispered. “Nothing’s gonna get you while I’m here.”
“You better not let anything touch me, I swear,” Yn muttered.
Carlos smiled, pressing a kiss to the top of her head. “Never.”
Rebecca met his eyes over Yn’s head, smiling softly. Carlos reached out and took her hand, gently squeezing it.
His chest felt light. Whole. Happy.
In that moment, Carlos knew he had everything he ever wanted.
His daughter. His love. His family.
And finally, he was Papá.

max the wag: is it a hard launch? | Max Verstappen
authors note: hello! I got an idea watching quali yesterday 👀 to bring back this series that I love so so much!!! IM SORRY THOUGH because I didn’t proof read and wrote it on my phone :( so pls ignore any mistake.
summary: connecting the dots after seeing Magui and Lando during the Monaco GP.
Tumblr media
There’s something in the air during the Monaco GP weekend, and you love it.
Waking up next to Max in your apartment with the cats, watching him get ready before someone from the team picks him up, him reminding you to please be careful with the fans and paparazzi, and to call him as soon as you arrive to the power station.
It was impossible to not stop after a couple of steps because there was the friend of a friend’s cousin who saw you once at Jimmy’z. It was the usual Monte-Carlo business, but there were more familiar faces like Kym Ilman who started a short conversation before snapping a couple of photos for Instagram.
You found Carmen walking towards the Mercedes garage and joined her, talking about post-race plans, business stuff, how you were scared the weather was going to change because the fog had been heavy during the week.
And then, you walked in front of the McLaren hospitality. You spotted Lily, Lando’s mum and dad, and was that…
“Is that Lando’s friend?” Carmen asked you in a hushed tone, knowing this city was too small.
You squinted and saw her. “It is, it really is! Do you remember Abu Dhabi last year?” You asked Carmen and she nodded. “I swear I spotted her inside the McLaren garage but Lando didn’t introduce her or anything, it was super low-key.”
“Does Max know anything?” Carmen asked and you almost snorted, immediately being self conscious as you felt phones cameras capturing the chat with Carmen.
“Max? He probably does know, but isn’t aware, which is very challenging.” Both Carmen and you giggled.
“I swear George is the same, drives me crazy. The other day we ran into each other, but she was a couple of steps behind and Lando didn’t really introduce her or anything.” Carmes added.
You looked up once again, confirming it was Magui Corceiro. “I hope they make it official, but if they haven’t done it in what? two years? They just have their reasons.”
“Yeah, poor thing receives hate for no reason whatsoever, and now everyone is bombarding Lando… can’t be easy.” Carmen said and you agreed.
You parted ways with Carmen with the promise of getting together later for a couple of Aperol Spritzes. You were about to call Max to tell him you were here, but you easily spotted him and wrapped your arms around his waist.
“You’re here, finally.” He kissed the top of your head, doing his best to avoid the multiple cameras.
“Baby, do you have a second? Driver’s room?” You asked and his blue eyes widened, and it was as if you could see the gears in his head turning before a cheeky smile appeared on his lips.
“I mean, if that’s what you want, you know I can’t turn you down.” Max said with his hands grabbing your waist a little tighter.
You laughed. “Max! No! Get your mind off the gutter,” he pouted. “I just… need to gossip.” You said and Max raised his eyebrows.
“What happened?!” He grabbed your hand and directed you towards his room.
“Is Lando dating someone?”
Max huffed. “Of course he is, God knows why he hasn’t told anyone, though, because it’s painfully obvious. Do you know how many times we’ve come across each other leaving the cafe?”
“Well, let me tell you that she is right now in the McLaren garage, with his parents, not hiding,” you informed Max.
“Interesting. Good for him.”
“Yeah, good for him, but do you have more information or something?” You tried to make him remember something.
“No, I know the same thing! But, I do remember Lando was pissed after they showed her on Drive to Survive.”
“That’s interesting, and now they’re hard launching in Monaco.”
Max’s eyebrows furrowed. “Hard launching?”
“Babe, we’ve talked about this! There’s no space for doubt that they’re together now, hard launch!”
Max tried to mask his confusion. “Right.”
“Let’s see if you can gather information, can you?” You kissed his lips.
“I’ll do my best, babe. We can gather everything and then share on Sunday after the race, sounds like a plan?”
“I can’t think of anything better, champ. Now go get ready, I’ll be here, you know, waiting for F1TV to show me as Max Verstappen’s partner.”
Max’s smile grew. “You love it.”
“I do.”
You were standing next to other Red Bull’s guests, with the headphones and anxiously rubbing your hands against each other when you felt the F1TV camera on your face so you have them a small smile before refocusing on Max.
It was right after Q3 finished that you received a text from Carmen.
They showed her as Lando’s partner. ITS OFFICIAL.
After a small gossip bit with Carmen before leaving the paddock, you walked hand in hand with Max towards the car driving you home.
You were in the balcony, overseeing the streets and listening to the quiet chatter and life of Monaco during the Grand Prix weekend. Most of the boats were lit up, even Jeff Bezos was somewhere.
But the important thing was the feeling of Max’s hair between your fingers, his head resting on your thighs, blue eyes closed while his fingers traced figures on your skin.
“I have a doubt.” Max broke the comfortable silence, and you hummed. “Is it a hard launch if they haven’t said anything?”

Tumblr media
The clock reads 2:13 a.m., and you're still awake. Your fingers play with the soft fabric of the blanket, but it doesn't warm you. Not when he's on the other side of the bed, his back to you, lost in a peaceful sleep.
You can almost hear him breathing, as if nothing is wrong. As if everything is fine.
But it's not.
It hasn't been for weeks.
You notice. The silences. The looks that never meet. The unanswered messages that are hidden behind vague excuses and broken promises. You've tried everything. You've spoken, you've stayed silent, you've waited. You've left clues, signals... signs.
And still, nothing.
Charles still doesn't see them. Or worse: he sees them and ignores them.
You breathe deeply, turning toward his back. You watch him, feeling a mix of love and anger twist inside your chest. You love how he looks when he's asleep, relaxed, as if the world isn't weighing on him. But you hate how he seems so distant, even when he's just inches away.
He mumbles something in French, unconscious. And you think about the last time he kissed you without you asking for it. The last time he noticed that you'd been crying. The last time he stopped to read you like he used to.
That night, you don't wake him. Even though you want to. Even though you'd like to shout at him that you can't keep being a ghost in his life. That you're tired of making yourself small, of pretending it doesn't hurt.
Instead, you close your eyes. But not to sleep. To escape.
Morning comes with the same cold routine as always. Charles wakes up, stretches, takes a shower. And you... you pretend you're not watching him as he crosses the room with a towel around his waist. You pretend to be interested in your phone when, in reality, you're hoping he'll look at you. That he'll notice something.
But all he says is:
"I have a meeting with the team today. Then simulator, and dinner with Carlos. Will you be there?"
You just nod. You don't even respond with words. He doesn't notice. He doesn't ask. He doesn't say anything else.
You just smile faintly. Another sign he won't read.
That night, you go out alone. Not because you want to, but because you need to breathe. You sit at a terrace in Monaco, with a coffee that cools quickly and a heart even colder. You watch couples around you. They laugh, hold hands, look at each other. Look at each other.
And you only think about how Charles used to do it. As if you were the only thing in the world that mattered.
Your phone vibrates.
"Where are you?"
It's him.
You reply with a simple:
"Outside. Getting some air."
There's nothing more.
Not because you don't have anything to say, but because you've said too much. Too much without words.
Charles should know you better.
He should see you.
Feel you.
He should know that you're falling apart.
Hours later, you return. He's sitting on the couch, with a half-finished glass of wine and a look of annoyance on his face. He doesn't say "hello." He just asks:
"Why didn't you say you were going out?"
The laugh you let out has no joy.
"Are you really asking that?"
He frowns, confused.
"What does that mean?"
And that's when you say it.
"It means that if you looked at me... if you really looked at me... you'd know everything I'm going through without me having to scream it. But you can't even read the most obvious signs."
Silence.
He looks at you for the first time tonight. But you're already too tired to keep explaining the obvious.
"And what signs are those?"
He says it as if he truly doesn't understand.
And you just think: there's the problem.
Not a word. Not an apology. Just that empty, confused look, as if he doesn't know why you're so upset. As if you're the dramatic one. The difficult one. The emotional one.
And that stings. More than it should.
"You know what's the worst part?" you whisper. "That I broke myself into little pieces so I wouldn't inconvenience you. I swallowed words, hid tears, faked smiles. I left signs everywhere, Charles. But you... you just looked the other way."
Charles stands still, his jaw tense. He's not used to this. To you confronting him with all this accumulated pain. You've always been soft. You've always been understanding. You've always been... easy to ignore.
"I didn't know you felt this way," he says at last, his voice barely a whisper.
You look at him, a mixture of disbelief and sadness in your eyes.
"Of course you didn't. Because you never ask. You never listen unless it's about you."
He frowns, hurt.
"That's not fair."
"Not fair?" you repeat. "You know what's not fair? That I spend whole nights wondering if something in me stopped being attractive to you. That it hurts when you touch your phone more times a day than you touch me. That I live with the constant doubt of whether you still love me... and you don't even notice my emotional absence, because to you, I'm still there. Always there."
Charles stands up, takes a few steps, then stops, as if the words are too heavy to be thrown out without breaking something.
"I'm doing the best I can. This... the F1, Ferrari... it's a lot. I'm exhausted."
"And I'm not?" you ask, on the verge of breaking down. "Do you think it doesn't tire me to live with the feeling that I'm invisible to the person I love the most?"
There it is. The word you didn't want to say. Love.
But you can't hold it back anymore. You've been too careful for too long. And you're tired. Exhausted from holding together the shattered pieces of a relationship he's still stepping on without noticing.
Charles looks at you. And for a moment, it seems like he's going to say something. Something important. Something that might save everything.
But he doesn't.
He just looks down.
"I didn't know you were this bad," he admits, as if that were enough.
You nod slowly, eyes watery.
"I know. Because you never looked properly."
A heavy silence falls between you both.
You take a step back. Then another. And another. Not towards the door, but towards the reality that this... can't go on like this. And if he doesn't wake up now, he's going to lose you.
"I'm going to stay at Inès' tonight," you say, picking up your keys with trembling hands.
Charles looks up, as if he's just processing it.
"What?"
"I need air. Really. From this place. From you."
"Are you saying that... you're leaving?"
"I'm saying that if you don't start seeing the signs, Charles, one of these days, I won't come back."
And with that, you walk out the door.
You don't slam it. You don't shout. You don't cry.
You just leave.
And for the first time in a long time... he's left alone with the echo of everything he ignored.
The silence hits him as soon as the door closes.
It's not just the silence of the room. It's the silence of your absence. The one that feels different. The one that breaks him from the inside.
Charles stands still for a long time, not moving, not thinking. Not knowing what to do with the words you left embedded in his chest.
"If you don't start seeing the signs, one day I won't come back."
For the first time in weeks, he stops.
He really stops.
Not in the middle of a turn. Not in a straightaway. Not in a meeting.
But in his life.
In you.
He sits on the couch and mentally reviews each of your last days together. Your short answers. Your lost looks. Your attempts to get closer. The times you touched his arm and he didn’t turn around. The times you faked a smile.
And damn it…
The signs were all there.
He saw them. Of course he saw them. But he didn’t want to read them.
He didn’t think they were that serious.
He thought love was automatic. Secure. That you would always be there.
Now he’s starting to understand.
The clock keeps ticking, but he doesn’t move. He doesn’t eat dinner. He doesn’t shower. He doesn’t check his phone. He just stays there, with his hands intertwined, elbows resting on his knees, and his head down.
At 2:13 a.m., the bed is cold.
Like that night when you didn’t sleep.
And for the first time in a long time… he can’t sleep either.
Two days later
He hasn’t texted you.
Not because he doesn’t want to. But because he doesn’t know how to start. How to fix something that’s been broken for so long.
He can’t pretend he didn’t hear your words. He can’t act like it doesn’t hurt. Because it hurts. A lot more than he expected.
Lewis notices it during practice. He’s distracted. Quiet.
The team notices too. They send him to rest early.
But he doesn’t go home.
He comes to you.
He stands in front of Inès' building, hands in his pockets and his mouth dry.
He doesn’t have flowers. Or rehearsed speeches.
He only has the truth.
And guilt.
Inès opens the door.
"She's upstairs," she says before he even asks. "But if you’re here to tell her you didn’t know, don’t even come in."
He nods, embarrassed.
And he goes up.
When you knock on the door, you think it’s your friend.
You don’t expect to find him there, disheveled, with dark circles under his eyes, staring at you as if he’s seeing you for the first time in months.
"Charles?"
"Don’t let me talk too much," he says suddenly. "Because if I think about it, I’ll give up. And I don’t want to give up on you."
You don’t say anything.
But you don’t close the door.
"You were right," he continues. "I wasn’t looking at you. I wasn’t listening. I got lost in everything else, and I didn’t see how you were losing yourself."
He takes a deep breath. It’s hard for him.
"I got so used to having you near… that I didn’t know how to take care of you. And now I’m here, wishing I’m still on time."
Your heart beats loudly. Part of you wants to hug him. Part of you wants to keep protecting yourself.
But there’s something in his voice. In his expression.
This time, he’s looking at you. Really.
"I don’t need you to say everything perfectly," you reply softly. "I just need you to start seeing."
He takes a step. Then another.
He doesn’t touch you. He waits for your permission.
"I want to see you. Hear you. Learn to read every sign. Not out of fear of losing you, but because I care about you. Because you matter to me more than anything."
Your heart breaks. But not out of pain.
Out of relief.
You let him in.
Not just into the apartment.
But into you. Again.

WhatsApp Groupchat — The 2019 F1 Grid

Sebastian V. Haha. She is the one Binotto wants? Brown hair, pretty smile?
Lando N. Bro.
Lewis H. @Sebastian — Mattia has tried to get her to Ferrari?
Sebastian V. Yes. He’s offered her some very lucrative opportunities. She has so far turned all of them down.
Carlos S. She’s loyal to McLaren. Leave her to us, yes?
Valtteri B. But if she ever decided to go elsewhere, Mercedes would make sense.
Lewis H. Yeah obviously 👍🏻
Lando N. ????????????
Lance S. If she was offered a million dollars to fix the Racing Point car, do you think she’d take it? Not a hypothetical. My dad wants to know.
Max V. Money won’t work. You forget she’s already the child of a millionaire.
Lance S. Damn it.
Kimi R. Is this the child always in Norris’ garage?
Lando N. Don’t call her a child we are literally the same age
Kimi R. That does not change the fact
Daniel R. But seriously, why was she even in Ferrari hospitality in the first place?
Max V. Ice cream.
Lando N. Ice cream 
Lewis H. Ice cream.
Sebastian V. I can confirm she was here for ice cream. Pistachio, specifically.
Charles L. I cannot believe I’ve still never met her. Is she really so smart?
Lando N. Yes.
Pierre G. Absolutely.
Max V. Smarter than you are capable of comprehending, Charles.
Charles L. Then I suppose I will just have to charm her into accepting Mattia’s offer 😌
Lando N. I will put in the wall, Leclerc.
Charles L. Oh! You are together with her, Lando? I didn’t know!
Lando N. No, we’re not together.
Charles L. Then I am confused.
Max V. Her father has practically forbade them from dating. Total nonsense if you ask me.
Carlos S. They are dating.
Daniel R. @Carlos 😳😳😳
Lando N. @Carlos NO WE ARE NOT STOP SAYING THAT
Sergio P. Mucho defensive…
Carlos S. He wrote his race number on her shoes.
Lando N. So what? That means nothing.
Daniel R. Oh brother….
Max V. Yeah, sorry, I can’t even back you on that one Lando. That’s a lot.
Kimi R. My wife had my number stitched into her shoes. We got married six months later.
George R. So Kimi is saying you’re basically engaged, bro.
Lewis H. Let’s stop talking about this. Before Lando has a full on meltdown.
Charles L. Too late. He has arrived for the iPad with a terrible attitude. 
Lando N. I hate all of you.

Subject: Workplace Conduct Reminder – Inclusivity & Respect at McLaren
From: HR Department To: All McLaren Racing Staff Date: [Sunday, post-race, 10:42 PM]
Dear Team,
As the season continues and tensions rise both on and off the track, we’d like to take a moment to remind everyone of McLaren’s core values — collaboration, respect, and inclusion.
We are incredibly proud of the diversity across our team, from engineering to strategy, operations to communications. Every person is here because they bring something exceptional to the table — and that includes our colleagues who may experience or perceive the world differently than others.
We ask that all team members remain mindful of the following:
Neurodiversity is not a barrier — it is an asset. Please be conscious of language and behaviour that may unintentionally alienate or diminish the contributions of individuals who may process things differently. This includes members of our extended team, trusted advisors, and collaborators who work closely with us — regardless of job title or official role.
“Vibes” are not a metric — Judging someone’s energy, personality, or communication style is not only unprofessional but also unfair. Everyone representing or contributing to McLaren, formally or informally, deserves respect.
Support one another — Whether someone wears McLaren orange full-time or contributes behind the scenes, everyone here plays a part in our collective success.
Rumours are not culture — Let’s keep paddock gossip out of professional spaces. If you have concerns, we encourage you to speak directly to your manager or HR.
This message is not in response to any one incident but rather a gentle pit stop reminder: our team functions best when everyone feels seen, heard, and safe.
If you have any questions or want to speak to someone in confidence, please feel free to reach out to HR directly. We’re here to help.
Kind regards, The McLaren Racing HR Team [[email protected]]
— 
iMessage — 11:40pm
Lando Yo, did you see the email?
Carlos Sí.
Lando Kinda hardcore. Glad Zak did something 
Carlos Somebody said something to Amelia?
Lando Yeah someone in PR idk I feel like I should know more about her stuff I feel stupid tho. Like I don’t know anything. Just that she’s Amelia yano 
Carlos I did some reading. Come to my hotel room. We eat pizza. I will teach you what I know and we can google the rest.
Lando Legend. Thanks, mate.
— 
The course he took her to wasn’t flashy — quiet, tucked away, the kind of place her dad’s friends would never be caught dead in. That was intentional. They weren’t exactly hiding their… friendship, but they weren’t trying to advertise it either.
Amelia stared down at the club he’d handed her like it was a piece of martian debris.
“This is very stupid,” she muttered. “Pointless, really.”
“It is,” Lando agreed, his lips twitching. “Just hit the ball.”
She squinted at the tiny white ball he’d settled on the grass in front of her. “Is it supposed to just… go?”
“Yes.”
“Like in a line?” she clarified, glancing at him.
He shrugged. “In theory.”
She swung. Missed.
Lando clapped anyway. “Incredible form. I’ve never seen such calculated failure.”
“It was bad,” she said seriously. “I didn’t hit the ball. I made a hole in the grass, Lando.” She stared down at the muddy crater with quiet horror.
He just gave her an encouraging nod, gesturing for her to try again.
She sighed, feeling the beginning of a stress rash creep along her neck. But she tried again. And that time, she hit it — not far, just a lazy roll across the grass — but enough to surprise herself. Lando caught the way her eyes widened, saw the exact moment the thrill overtook her frustration.
He didn’t say anything. Just handed her another ball.
They kept going like that for a while — her slowly getting the hang of it, him slipping in dumb jokes and patient explanations between swings. She never asked for help, but he noticed how closely she watched every move he made. Her eyes, always sharp, always calculating.
Eventually, she dropped to the grass with a dramatic sigh and said, “Why do people think this is relaxing? I’m hot and my legs are tired.”
Lando chuckled and sat beside her, kicking his legs out long. “I think it’s relaxing. Your dad likes it.”
“I don’t want to talk about my dad. It makes me stressed.”
“Yeah?” He asked.
She pulled at a blade of grass, rolled it between her fingers. “He told me again that it would be better if I stayed away from you. He said it would make things easier. For me. For you. For the team.” She continued. 
Lando let the silence sit for a moment before asking, his voice quiet and slightly unsure. “What do you want?”
“I don’t know,” she shrugged. “I want him to not worry. I want him to trust me. I want…” She hesitated, frowning at the grass. “I want to feel like I can make my own choices without feeling like I might wreck everything.” 
“You’re not wrecking anything,” Lando said. He tapped the ground next to her leg and she glanced at him, blinking. “I like hanging out with you.” He told her. 
She didn’t say anything, just flicked the blade of grass from her fingers and looked at the trees that surrounded the course. “I don’t know what I feel yet,” she said finally. “Toward you, I mean. But I know that I have liked this. Today. Not the golf. Being with you.”
Lando grinned — couldn’t help himself. Probably looked like a right knob, but he didn’t care. “Want to keep playing?” He asked. 
She gave him a look. “I might get fined for ruining so much of their grass.”
He handed her another ball. Shrugged. Smirked. “It’s fine. I make a lot of money.” 
She rolled her eyes.
— 
Amelia shut her bedroom door with more force than she meant to and leaned against it, breath caught high in her chest like she’d just ran a marathon. Her bag hit the floor. Her hands were shaking.
She didn’t know why. Except; she did.
Her body was full of something too big. Too much. A knot of heat and noise and confusion that had no exit. It felt like all the inside parts of her were pressing outward, like she might split open if she didn't stay still.
She pressed her palms hard into her eyes like she could push it all back in. But it was already too late. The thoughts were everywhere; spilled oil, tangled cords, static static static. Her brain wouldn’t quiet down. Wouldn’t give her space to think.
She’d had a good day. That was the worst part. 
Lando had been good.
He never looked at her like she was difficult. He didn’t act like she was hard work. When she didn’t catch onto something the first time, he just explained again. No sighing. No staring. No pretending. Things weren’t easy with him, not exactly, but they were lighter. Easier.
She sat hard on her bed and the tears came without warning; fast, silent, relentless.
She didn’t cry often. Usually she just shut down. Usually the wall slammed down before anything could spill out. But this time everything had slipped past it, and now she was sobbing, but it didn’t even feel like crying. It felt like her whole nervous system had shattered.
A knock at the door.
“Amelia?” her mum’s voice, soft. “We just got back. Can I come in?”
She didn’t answer. Just turned her face away and wiped at it, even though the tears kept falling. Her skin was already stinging. Her chest was tight.
The door creaked open.
“I’m not upset,” Amelia said fast, panicked. “I didn’t do anything wrong. I don’t know why I feel like this. No. I do. I do. I just don’t know what to do with it. And I don’t want to talk about it—except I do. I do, I just—” She broke off, swallowing hard.
Her mum sat on the edge of the bed, calm. Grounding.
“I went out with Lando today,” Amelia said, too fast. “To play golf. His idea. He said we should do something fun. So I did. And it was fun. I didn’t freak out or embarrass myself. I didn’t ruin it. I didn’t ruin it.”
She dug her nails into her palms. Her face was blotchy and sore.
“He makes me feel normal,” she whispered. “Not small. Not like a problem. Just… me. And now I don’t know what I feel. I think I want him to be my friend. Or maybe something else. I don’t know. And I don’t want to know, because it doesn’t matter.”
“Why doesn’t it matter?” Her mum asked calmly.
Amelia blinked at her, and then, like someone flicked a switch, the anger surged. Hot and fast, like a fever.
“Because of Dad,” she spat. “Because he thinks that it would be a distraction. Because he thinks I’ll screw everything up just by being around. Like I’m some walking disease that’s gonna infect Lando’s entire career. I know that’s what he’s worried about the most.”
She was breathing too fast. Her limbs were twitching now, hands clenching and unclenching.
“I don’t have friends,” she said. “You know that. I’ve never had friends. Not ones that stay. I get too intense. Too blunt. Too weird. Too tired. And people always stop trying.”Her voice cracked. Her throat burned. “But Lando didn’t stop. He hasn’t stopped. And it’s still not enough. I still don’t get to have this one good thing without it turning into a problem.”
The sobs came back, messy and loud this time. She stood up too fast, swaying. Her hands started moving uncontrollably at her sides; jerky, uncoordinated. A warning sign. The meltdown was building and she couldn’t stop it, could never stop it. 
Her mum stood too, moving slow, blocking her path without touching her.
“Okay, sweetheart. You don’t have to think about any of that right now.” Her mom’s attempts to comfort her were useless against the onslaught of emotions she was feeling. 
“I’m so angry,” Amelia choked out. “I finally feel calm, I finally feel seen, and it’s not allowed. I’m not allowed to want something or feel something if it’s inconvenient for anyone else!”
She was trembling now. Her skin felt wrong. Her body wasn’t hers anymore. She wanted to rip it off. She wanted to scream and break things. Instead, she clenched her fists and shook and shook and shook.
“Do you want me to get your things?” her mum asked, voice calm, anchoring.
Amelia nodded hard. “Yes. My weighted blanket. And the golf ball. It’s in my bag. Lando bought it for me and I want to hold it. It’s yellow.”
“I’ll get everything,” her mum said gently.
“I’m not doing this on purpose,” Amelia shouted, the volume jarring even to herself. “I’m trying so hard. All the time. I’m always trying.”
“I know,” her mum said. “And I’m proud of you. Every day.”
Amelia slid to the floor. Her body folded in on itself, hands clawed into her sleeves, breathing uneven.
The noise in her head kept rising.
Usually, this was when she wanted her dad. Wanted him to sit next to her. Watch a race in silence. Be there without asking anything of her.
But not now.
Now, all she wanted was for him to stay far, far away.
— 
It was almost midnight.
Her room was quiet now; weighted blanket pulled up to her chest, lights off, only the soft blue glow of her phone screen lighting her face. The golf ball sat in her right hand, warm from where she’d been holding it for hours. She kept rolling it between her fingers, feeling the small ridges, the smoothness. Grounding.
She had stopped shaking, but her body was aching like one big bruised muscle. 
She stared at the message thread with Lando, her thumb hovering, retreating, hovering again.
She didn’t know what to say.
Everything in her head still felt too big. Too messy. But the quiet between them was worse. Not bad, not uncomfortable, just... unfamiliar. She wanted to talk to him. 
Finally, she started typing.

— 
The house was still, the kind of stillness that only came after a storm.
Tracy sat on the couch in the dark, legs curled beneath her, a half-cold mug of tea resting in her hands. She hadn’t moved since she’d come downstairs after leaving Amelia. The couch blanket was draped over her shoulders, but she still shivered slightly, not from the cold, but from the heavy weight of witnessing her daughter’s pain. 
Zak entered quietly, the door clicking shut behind him. He didn’t speak at first. Just stood in the doorway, tie loose, shoulders slumped, guilt etched deep into the lines around his eyes. After a long moment, he crossed the room and sat down beside her.
Tracy didn’t look at him. Just murmured, “She’s asleep now. I checked a minute ago.”
Zak nodded slowly. “She didn’t ask for me.”
“She didn’t want to be touched. Didn’t want help. Just needed space.” Tracy’s voice cracked, but she kept it steady. “She was barely holding on, Zak. I haven’t seen her like that in a long time.”
“I didn’t mean to make it worse,” he said too quickly. “I just… I thought I was protecting her.”
“I know you did,” Tracy replied gently.
Zak stared at the floor. “I didn’t think it would hurt her like this. I thought—” He faltered. “I thought keeping her away from Lando would keep things simple. Keep her safe. From getting hurt. Or confused. Or from people talking. From getting her hopes up.”
“You didn’t trust her,” Tracy said. Not accusing, just honest.
Zak exhaled hard. “No. I didn’t trust him.”
Tracy finally turned to look at him. “But he’s been good to her. You’ve seen that, surely.” 
“I have,” Zak admitted, tersely. 
“But it wasn’t on your terms,” Tracy said. “So you didn’t like it.”
Zak didn’t argue.
“She’s not a problem to solve, Zak. She’s our daughter. And she’s doing something incredibly brave. She’s opening up. She’s connecting. That’s huge for her.”
“I know,” he said quietly. “God, I know. I just…” He broke off, ran a hand through his hair. “Why did it have to be him? Why couldn’t it have been someone safer?”
“Because love isn’t safe,” Tracy said. “And friendship isn’t simple. And if you’re lucky enough to find someone who makes you feel okay in your skin, even just for a little while, that’s not a risk for someone like her. That’s a lifeline.”
Zak leaned back, scrubbing a hand over his face. He looked hollowed out. “I feel like I’ve completely blown it.”
“You haven’t,” Tracy said gently. “But you will if you keep pushing like this. If you keep trying to prevent something that is starting to seem pretty much inevitable.” 
Zak was quiet.
“She loves you,” Tracy added. “But she can’t keep fighting you on this. Not when she’s also fighting herself. That kind of pressure… it’ll break her.”
That landed like a stone. He blinked against the sting in his eyes and nodded, slow and tired. “Okay,” he whispered. “Yeah. Okay. Fine.”
Tracy leaned into him and kissed the rough edge of his jaw. “You’re a good father, Zak. She knows that. She’ll forgive you.”
Zak didn’t answer right away. Just stared at the dark hallway.
“She didn’t ask for me,” he said again, softer this time. Raw. Frayed.
Tracy sighed and rested her head on his shoulder. “I know, honey.”
— 
The flat was quiet, except for the hum of the fridge and the occasional thump of bass through the wall from the upstairs neighbours. Lando sat cross-legged on the sofa, eyes unfocused on the muted Rally Car stream playing on the TV. Max was in the kitchen, one sock on, microwaving some disastrous smelling leftover curry.
“You ever liked someone,” Lando said suddenly, not looking up, “so much that even the idea of them ruining your life doesn’t sound that bad?”
Max made a noise that landed somewhere between a laugh and a sigh. “Christ, mate. What brought that on?”
Lando shrugged. “Dunno. I’ve just been thinking.”
“About Amelia?” Max asked, already knowing. He padded over and dropped into the armchair opposite, bowl in his lap.
Lando exhaled slowly. “I really fucking like her. It doesn’t make sense. She’s, I mean— Jesus, I don’t know. Feels like I can breathe right around her, you know?”
Max didn’t answer right away. Just stirred the curry and watched the screen for a second. Then, gently: “Yeah. I get that. But... Come on, mate. You sure this isn’t a bit too much, too fast?”
Lando looked over. Frowned. “What do you mean?”
Max shifted, trying to find words. “It’s not just about liking someone. It’s about who she is. Like, she’s your boss’s daughter. That’s... not insignificant here.”
“I know that.” Lando bit back. 
“Okay. But do you really know what it means? If something goes wrong, if it ends, and ends messy, it’s not like you can just walk away. There’s no possibility of a clean break with her.” 
Lando was quiet, but his jaw tightened.
“I’m not trying to scare you off,” Max added quickly. “I just... I know how much you’ve worked for this. Since you were, what, six? Your whole life’s been about driving. Being the best. And now you’re closer than ever.”
“I’m not giving up racing,” Lando snapped, defensive before Max even finished.
“I didn’t say you were,” Max snapped right back at him. “I just don’t want you to stop being Lando Norris: F1 driver and become Lando Norris: the guy who fucked around with his boss’ daughter, you know?”
Lando stared down at his hands. He felt like a piece of shit as he said, “Zak’s basically said the same thing. So has my dad.”
Max nodded. “‘Cause we’re all thinking the same thing, mate.” 
Lando rubbed his hands over his face and pulled his hood up. “Maybe you’re right,” he mumbled. “Maybe this isn’t... good timing.”
Max didn’t say anything. He just went back to eating, quiet again.
And Lando hated that suddenly it felt like all of their reasons made sense.
— 
The air was different now. Cooler. Thinner. The sun still came through her window in the morning, but it didn’t cling to the walls the same way. The trees had started to shift, just barely, into that pre-autumn colour. And Amelia felt like she was holding her breath all the time. For something. For nothing.
She hadn’t spoken to Lando for days. Not since she'd sent him a photo of the coffee shop in town that had spelled her name wrong again, and all she got back was a laughing emoji. No reply. No question. Just that.
It felt like a door closing very slowly. 
She was sitting in the bay window of her bedroom, blanket around her shoulders, golf ball in one hand and her phone in the other. It was the fourth time she'd opened their chat and closed it again. The most recent messages sat there like ghosts. 
iMessage — 9:04am
Amelia Hope you’re not too tired from training. 
Read. Two days ago. No response.
Her fingers hovered over the keyboard, unsure what to write that wouldn’t sound… needy. Or hurt. Or desperate. God, she hated the idea of being too much. It made her skin itch. She didn’t want to become exactly what people were always assuming that she’d be.
She pressed her palms to her eyes, trying to steady her breathing, her thoughts, her everything. But it hurt in a way she didn’t understand; this slow, quiet loss. It hurt in a way she didn’t have a name for. It felt a lot like emptiness.
“Don’t spiral,” she whispered to herself, rocking gently, rhythmically. “Don’t spiral. Don’t spiral.”
But it felt like she already was.
— 
Both McLaren cars DNF’d in Belgium; the first race back after the Summer break.
She’d written it down two hours before lights out — in the margin of an old notebook, under a page of technical notes she hadn’t meant to be looking at anymore. The exact reason. The probable lap. A strange little instinct that curled in her gut and told her today’s not going to go the way they want it to.
She closed the notebook and put it back in the drawer, and told herself it didn’t matter.
Nobody would ever know. Nobody would ever ask. Because she wasn’t in the garage. Wasn’t in the paddock. Wasn’t even watching from the hospitality suite like she always did, like clockwork.
She was in Woking. In her bedroom. As far from Lando’s garage, from the paddock, as she could possibly be.
And on the TV, when the Sky Sports commentator mentioned her absence like it was some small anomaly (“No sign of Amelia Brown in Norris’ McLaren garage today. Odd, considering she rarely misses a weekend”) she didn’t feel flattered or seen or missed.
She felt sick.
Like the air got thinner the second they said her name.
So she turned it off.
Just like that.
The screen went dark. The sound cut out. And for the first time in ten years, she didn’t watch the entire race.
Not because she didn’t want to. 
But because it hurt too much.

It only happened once every few lifetimes. 
You honestly did not expect to end up with one of your closest friends – especially not after you told your cheating husband that you were getting a divorce, after he chose his lover over you and your baby; and most definitely not after the said close friend told you that he would step up instead of your cheat of a husband.  
But there you are, in the arms of non-other than Carlos Sainz, your boyfriend, having just woken up by the excited pitter patter of feet right outside your bedroom door. “Carlos,” you whisper, nudging him softly to wake him up, “Carlos, wake up.” You watch as he stirs, and then buries his head onto his pillow mumbling all the reasons why he doesn’t want to be awake, but you just chuckle softly as you poke him again. “Carlos, please.” 
With a disgruntled grunt, you watch as his eyes open, and with a scratchy voice he whines, “What, amor, I was sleeping.” 
Rolling your eyes, you point to the bedroom door, “Listen,” you tell him, and watch as his eyes widen as realisation sets in at the same time his expression turns into a smiling one. “I think someone is excited for today.”  
“You think?” He retorts, snorting lightly as he pulls you closer, “That’s all he’s been able to talk about for weeks, amor.”  
“Well, can you blame him?” You nudge him, ignoring the sound of scraping of your son’s step stool outside your door. “He just wants to watch his father win.” Watching the smile on your boyfriend’s face grows as the door handle is jiggling, you point to the pillows with your head, “Let’s just pretend we’re asleep, he’ll be happier that way.”  
With a deep sigh, the happy kind, he pulls you closer to himself – at the right time too, as you hear the patter of footsteps getting closer. With a tug at the comforter, you hear, “Papa, wake up.” You can hear Carlos, badly, muffling a chuckle by burying his head deeper into your neck, but the little voice beside him is non-relenting. “Papa! You promised me we’d go to the race today!”  
“Carlos,” you whisper covertly, “you’re going to make him cry.”  
Giving you a look that silently says, No I won’t, he turns towards the little intruder in your bedroom, quickly gathering him in his arms as he puts him on the bed next to you. The sound of laughter coming from two of the most important men in your life bring a sleepy smile to your face as you watch Carlos tickle your son despites his protests for him to stop.  
“Mommy!” Your son exclaims, climbing over Carlos to reach you, “Tell Papa to stop! We need to get ready!” His face is flushed with excitement and laughter, a sight that fills your heart with warmth. 
“Alright, alright,” you say, giggling as you pull him into a hug, “let’s get ready then. You don’t want to be late for your big day, do you?” 
Carlos finally stops his playful assault, sitting up and stretching with a groan. “She’s right, buddy. We should all get up and get going. Lots to do before the race, you still remember our plan for breakfast?” Your son’s eyes light up even more, if that were possible, and he scrambles off the bed, running back to his room to get dressed. You and Carlos exchange a glance, something you seem to do more now than ever.  
You wait until Rafael is out of the hearing distance before you tilt your head sideways and narrow your eyes in question, “What plan are you talking about?” 
“Nothing for you,” he boops your nose with his pointer finger as he straightens up and gets out of the bed, “to worry your pretty little head about. Just come to the kitchen when you’re ready.” 
You raise an eyebrow, intrigued but willing to play along. “So, you think I’m pretty?” you ask, batting your eyes at him exaggeratedly as he gently shoves you back into the bed. Getting up and stretching, which you shamelessly take the opportunity to ogle him, you watch him with a smile as he heads towards the kitchen following your son. Getting ready consists of brushing your teeth and hastily throwing on a robe for you, too anxious to see what you son and husband cooking up in the kitchen – literally.  
The scene in the kitchen is enough to melt your heart on its own – Rafael is standing on his trusty step stool at the counter, his little hands busy arranging an assortment of fruits on a plate. The concentration on his face is evident by the way his tongue peeks out slightly in that adorable way he does when he’s focused, a habit that he picked up from his father. Your boyfriend, on the other hand, is busy with flipping something in a pan, shirtless might you add.  
“Oh my God, look at my boys!” You croon, leaning against the doorframe with a playful grin. “You even have matching hats and everything!” 
“Boys?” Carlos scoffs, turning to Rafael and pointing his finger towards you, “Can you believe her?” He then turns to you as he places his hands on his hips and puffs out his chest. “We are not boys, amor, we are men.” 
You chuckle at his exaggerated display of masculinity, shaking your head as you walk further into the kitchen. “Oh, of course, how could I forget? The two manliest men I know,” you tease, your voice dripping with playful sarcasm. 
Rafael, picking up on the banter, puffs out his little chest just like his father, mimicking his stance. “Yeah, Mommy! We're strong, right, Papa?” 
Carlos grins, his eyes twinkling as he looks at Rafael. “That’s right, we’re the strongest men in the world." He turns back to you, a mischievous glint in his eyes. “And we make the best breakfast too. Isn’t that right, Raf?” 
“Yes!” Rafael exclaims, beaming with pride as he holds up the plate of perfectly arranged fruit. “Look what I made, Mommy!” 
You lean down to inspect his handiwork, smiling softly. “Wow, this looks incredible, sweetheart. You’re so talented!” You give him a big kiss on the cheek, making him giggle. 
Carlos steps closer, holding out a fork with a piece of pancake speared on it. “And how about a taste test, amor?” His voice is softer now, the playful tone giving way to something more tender. 
You take the fork from him, taking a bite of the pancake. The fluffiness and warmth of it fill your senses, and you can’t help but let out a contented sigh. “This is amazing, Carlos. You’ve outdone yourself.” 
He watches you with a satisfied smile, clearly pleased with your reaction. “Only the best for you.” 
Rafael, not wanting to be left out, grabs a piece of fruit and holds it up to you. “Try mine too, Mommy!” 
You take the fruit from him, savouring the sweetness as you chew. “Delicious! You’re both going to spoil me with all this great food.” 
Carlos chuckles, wrapping an arm around your waist as he presses a kiss to your temple. “That’s the plan,” he murmurs against your skin, making you shiver slightly. “I can also spoil you in the other way you like,” his voice drops enough for only you to hear.  
You glance up at him, meeting his playful yet heated gaze, and feel a blush creep up your cheeks. “Carlos,” you murmur, half-warning, half-inviting, as Rafael happily oblivious to the exchange, chatters away about his breakfast creation. “I would like to still be able to walk by the time we get to the paddock.” 
But Carlos just smirks, leaning in to brush his lips against your ear, his breath warm and intoxicating. “Later, amor,” he promises, his voice thick with affection and mischief. 
Before you can respond, Rafael tugs at your robe, breaking the spell. “Mommy! Let’s eat now!” His voice is filled with the kind of innocent excitement that only a child can muster, and it instantly brings you back in the present moment. 
You smile down at him, ruffling his hair affectionately. “Alright, let’s eat. I’m starving.” Carlos gives you one last knowing glance before stepping back to grab the plates. As the three of you settle down at the table, you try to ignore his lingering gaze that makes your heart race just a bit faster, though you’re not exactly that successful. 
Tumblr media
It would be safe to say that it had been a crazy few years for Carlos Sainz. Or at least, that’s what Charles would say – if, you know, anybody was to ask him his opinion. First, he had lost his seat at Ferrari, and Charles really felt for him at first; after all, he was his teammate. But he was also the man who ended his marriage, so his feelings for Carlos changed for the worse very quickly. The whole situation had him coming to some revelations.  
First revelation he came to was the fact that he was wrong for cheating on his wife, however complicated the situation might be. He had tried to justify it to himself, blaming the stress and the strain, but deep down, he knew there was no excuse for what he’d done. 
Second revelation was that you deserved to be happy, with or without him – he was just being petty because it was with his old teammate. You deserved to be happy, and while Charles could admit that in theory, accepting that your happiness was now tied to Carlos was a bitter pill to swallow. 
Third, and probably the biggest, revelation was that he had royally screwed up when he chose the other woman over you and your son, and it was a loss that he mourned every single day. If he thought seeing Carlos thrive after his own life was crumbling down was hurting his ego, seeing Carlos be the father to his son, was a thousand times worse.  
Life took an interesting turn for Carlos after that night at the hotel in Monte Carlo. You had no expectations for him, you didn’t expect him to stay true to his words and be there for you and your baby. But that was the thing, because he kept his promise. He was at your door the next morning with a short list of apartments and penthouses in Monte Carlo. Anticipating your need of getting out of the country, he was prepared – he also looked at apartments in New York, houses in LA and townhouses in London (the few apartments he chose in Madrid also didn’t escape you, but it was a conversation you weren’t ready to have yet). So, when you were having, yet another breakdown in front of him, he just stood next to you and held you until you calmed down. He was always next to you, somehow managing his schedule for the racing season and coming out to see you between races. He kept true to his promise as he made waffles for you at midnight, grumbling about how pancakes were superior, and he held your hand when you were in the delivery room even though you were probably close to breaking the poor man’s hand. The bigger shock came when he announced that he would not be racing for the next season – something he had conveniently not told you in the months leading up to your pregnancy. It also led up to your first fight, and your first real confrontation since this unexpected journey began. The news that Carlos wouldn’t be racing the next season blindsided you. It wasn’t just the fact that he had made such a monumental decision without consulting you; it was the realisation that he had chosen you and your child over the sport he loved so deeply. 
“What do you mean you’re not racing next season?” you had asked, your voice edged with disbelief. You were standing in the kitchen of the new apartment he had helped you find, your baby—your son—napping peacefully in the next room. Carlos was casually leaning against the counter, arms crossed, as if he had just announced something as mundane as what was for dinner. 
He sighed, rubbing the back of his neck, a habit you had come to recognize as a sign that he was about to say something serious. “I’ve been thinking about it for a while,” he said, his voice calm, and God it drove you insane how calm and rational he was being with a decision so irrational to you. “And after everything that’s happened... I just think it’s the right decision for now.” 
“But racing is your life,” you insisted, the weight of his words settling in. “I don’t understand how you can just walk away from it.” 
Carlos met your gaze, his brown eyes steady and full of determination. “It’s not about walking away,” he explained. “It’s about priorities. You and Rafael... you’re my priority now. I want to be here for you both, not halfway across the world, missing out on everything.” 
The sincerity in his voice made your heart ache. For so long, you had been used to being let down, to promises that were made and then broken. But here was Carlos, standing in front of you, willing to give up something he loved more than anything for you and your son. 
“That’s not fair to you,” you whispered, feeling the tears welling up in your eyes. “I don’t want to be the reason you give up on your dreams.” 
Carlos stepped closer, gently cupping your face in his hands. “You’re not taking anything away from me,” he assured you. “You’re giving me something I didn’t even know I needed. I’m choosing this, because I want to. I want to be here for you, to be the father Rafael deserves. I want us to be a family.” 
His words broke through the wall you had been holding up, and you let the tears fall. It wasn’t just about the sacrifice he was making; it was about the fact that he was doing it willingly, without hesitation, because he wanted to be with you and Rafael. It was a love that was deeper than anything you had ever known, and it terrified you as much as it filled you with hope. 
“But what if you regret it?” you asked, your voice trembling with the weight of your fears. 
“I won’t,” Carlos said firmly, his thumbs gently brushing away your tears. “I know what I want. And if I ever go back to racing, it’ll be when we’re ready. When we both decide it’s the right time. But for now, this is where I need to be.” 
You searched his eyes for any sign of doubt, but there was none. He was as serious as ever, and in that moment, you realized that this wasn’t just about him making a choice— it was about him choosing you, over and over again, in a way no one ever had before. 
The argument you had anticipated fizzled out before it could even begin. There was nothing left to fight about, not when he had laid his heart bare for you. All you could do was fall into his arms, holding onto him tightly as you let the weight of his decision sink in. It was overwhelming, knowing that someone loved you that much, that they would uproot their entire world just to be by your side. 
So, yeah, Carlos Sainz had not raced for the 2025 season. If it were up to him, he would stay with the two of you for the 2026 season as well, but you and Carlos Sainz Sr managed to convince him to get back to the real world, no matter how much he was enjoying being a stay-at-home dad. But the biggest shock for the world, and Charles, wasn’t that Carlos was returning to the F1 grid – no, the biggest shock was that he was returning to the F1 grid in one of the most coveted seats; right next to Max Verstappen. The reaction to the news had been mixed. Some were thrilled to see him back, eager to see what he could do in a car as competitive as the Red Bull. Others were skeptical, wondering if a year away from the sport had dulled his edge. For Charles, the news was a bitter pill to swallow. Carlos wasn’t just returning to the grid—he was stepping into one of the most sought-after seats in F1. But more than that, it was the reminder that Carlos had taken something else from him, something far more personal and painful. Watching Carlos step into his new role at Red Bull, knowing that he was now part of your life and Rafael’s life in a way Charles never could be, was a constant, aching reminder of everything he had lost. 
And so began the Leclerc-Sainz rivalry – which although sounds riveting, is probably the reason why you had to visit your cardiologist more times than necessary within the last couple of years. On the surface, it was the perfect storyline: two former teammates, now on opposing sides, battling it out on the track in some of the most intense and thrilling races the sport had ever seen. But for you, it was far from entertainment. Each race weekend became a new source of anxiety, and Carlos knew how much it affected you, so he tried his best to keep the rivalry on the track. He would reassure you, telling you that whatever happened during the race, it wouldn’t change how he felt about you or Rafael. But even he couldn’t deny that the tension between him and Charles was personal. It was more than just racing—it was about proving something, not just to the world, but to themselves and each other. And so, race after race, you found yourself on an emotional rollercoaster. The thrill of seeing Carlos perform at his best was always accompanied by the fear of what might happen if things went wrong. The rivalry wasn’t just a storyline for the media—it was a real, living thing that had a profound impact on your life. 
So, when Rafael told you that he wanted to watch his father race live, you were hesitant to agree. The thought of bringing your son into that world—where emotions ran high, and the stakes were even higher—filled you with dread. The last thing you wanted was for Rafael to witness the intensity of the rivalry that had consumed not just Carlos and Charles, but your entire life. 
Carlos, however, was adamant. He knew how much it meant to Rafael to see him race, to be a part of something that had been such a significant part of Carlos’s life before Rafael was born. “He needs to see it,” Carlos told you one evening as you sat together, discussing Rafael’s request. “He needs to know what I do, why it’s important to me, and why I went back to racing in the first place.”  
You couldn’t deny that Carlos had a point. Rafael idolized his father and seeing him in action would only strengthen the bond between them. But the idea of watching the race unfold, of seeing Carlos and Charles go head-to-head while your son was there, was almost too much to bear. The days leading up to the race were a blur of preparation and anxiety. Carlos did his best to reassure you, but the tension was palpable. He understood your fears and promised to keep things professional, but you both knew that once the lights went out, everything would be on the line. So, you weren’t exactly surprised that your boyfriend spent the entire morning buttering you up and getting you to relax as much as possible about the day ahead of you.  
And to be perfectly fair, he was right for the most part. It had been fine from the moment you made it into the paddock, which somehow worked wonders on your anxiety. As you made your way to the circuit, Rafael’s excitement was infectious. He was practically bouncing in his seat, his little face pressed against the window as he took in the sights. You couldn’t help but smile, his joy momentarily easing the knot of anxiety that had been tightening in your chest since the moment you agreed to come to the paddock in the first place.  
Seeing him so happy and in his element, you know instantly that the paddock, no matter in which country, is going to become his safe place. Rafael keeps asking Carlos questions about everything from how they manage to keep the cars so clean to what would happen if they didn’t wear helmets. And Carlos is patient as he answers all his questions, no matter how childish or obvious they might seem. So, when he told Rafael that maybe, just maybe, he might end up in one of the cars he admires so much one day, you know your son won’t miss the beat. “Can I?” He asks you, eyes widened with a pleading look as he clasps his hands together under his chin, “Please, Mommy, I promise I’ll be very careful.”  
“Absolutely not,” you shake your head, mind immediately starting to think about all the things that could go wrong, “it’s so dangerous! Just think about how afraid you’d be of the speed.”  
Rafael scoffs, arms crossed on his chest as he pleads through the pout he has on his face, “I’m not afraid of the speed! Papa, tell her I’m not afraid of the speed!” 
Carlos reaches over Rafael’s head as he takes off his cap and ruffles his hair, which manages to get a series of giggles from the little boy, and he affirms, “You are not afraid of the speed, but your mother is right.” You have to hold in your laughter when you see the indignant look on Rafael’s face, but Carlos continues talking as he signals for his son to listen, “We can talk about it when you are older, but for right now you are my lead strategist, capisce?” 
Rafael steers his pout towards you, and you shrug innocently in response, which gets a resigning sigh from him. “That’s fine, I guess.” He mumbles, and points to the garage door behind the table the three of you are sitting, “Can I look at your car again?” 
“Be careful, and make sure you tell Caco where you are.” Carlos reminds him, as Rafael excitedly scurries off toward the garage, leaving you and Carlos to share a quiet moment. 
Carlos leaned back in his chair, a content smile playing on his lips as he watched Rafael dart off. “He’s got the bug,” he says, a hint of pride in his voice. 
You sigh, shaking your head playfully. “I know. He’s already got the attitude. I don’t think I’m ready for him to jump in a kart and never look back.” 
Carlos reaches for your hand, his touch grounding you. “We’ll keep him safe,” he says quietly, his gaze meeting yours. “I promise. Whatever happens, we’ll make sure he’s ready, and we’ll protect him from the worst of it.” 
You nod, squeezing his hand in return, trusting him like you always have. As you sit together, watching Rafael’s excitement fill the garage, the sweet moment is interrupted by a voice both of you know very well. “Seriously? You’re using him to get to me on a race day now?”  
Your fingers nearly crush your poor boyfriend’s hand as you look at the intruder, your heart immediately racing. You turn to see Charles standing there, his expression a mix of frustration and disbelief. His eyes flicker from Carlos to you, then toward the garage where Rafael had just run off. “Excuse me?” You manage to get out, your voice sharp with surprise. The audacity of his accusation stings more than you expected. Charles' gaze hardens as he steps closer, clearly not backing down. 
“You heard me,” Charles says, his tone edged with bitterness. “Bringing Rafael here, right in the middle of everything... it’s not a coincidence. You’re just trying to—” 
“To what?” Carlos cuts in, his voice calm but firm. His protective instincts kick in as he stands, placing himself between you and Charles. “To have a good day with our son? To let him enjoy the race?” 
Charles scoffs, shaking his head. “He’s not your son, he’s mine. Stop fooling yourself into thinking you’re his father just because you’re here.” 
The words hit like a punch to the gut, and for a moment, everything goes silent. Carlos' expression tightens, but he doesn’t move, his body still a shield between you and Charles. You feel your breath catch in your throat, the weight of Charles’ words hanging heavy in the air. “I know who his father is, Charles,” Carlos says, his voice calm but steely. “And considering the fact that he doesn’t even know you exist, I’d say me being here is more than proof that I am his father.” 
Charles' jaw clenches, and his eyes flicker with something raw—pain, jealousy, frustration, all mixed together. “You think you can just step in and take my place? Be the dad, play happy family with my son?” 
“Cabrón,” Carlos warns, and though you’ve heard him use that nickname for his friends countless of times, this voice is devoid of all affection, “you lost all right to call yourself Rafael’s father when you decided to choose whatever flavour of the month you were with at the time.” You feel your heart race, not from fear, but from the sheer intensity of the moment and the murderous look on Carlos’ face. Carlos steps forward, his voice low but terse. “You think being a father is about biology? About showing up when it’s convenient for you? Rafael doesn’t even know who you are because you’ve never been there for him. I have. I’ve been the one tucking him in, I've been there when he was sick and crying, and I’m the one showing him love every single day.”  
Charles flinches, the sting of the truth evident in his expression. For a moment, the fire in his eyes dims, replaced by something else— regret, perhaps. But it’s gone as quickly as it appeared, and he straightens his posture, trying to regain control of the situation. “I made mistakes,” Charles says, his voice quiet but defiant. “But you can’t just erase me from his life. He has a right to know who his real father is.” 
Carlos’ gaze doesn’t waver, his protective instincts blazing. “Rafael knows who his real father is. He may not understand all the details yet, but he knows who’s been there for him. And when the time comes, when he’s ready, we’ll tell him the truth. But that decision isn’t yours to make anymore, Charles. You gave up that right a long time ago.” 
“You’re just going to sit there and let him talk to me like this?” Charles hisses, turning towards you in an attempt to find sympathy. His eyes are pleading, but there’s anger simmering beneath the surface. 
Your chest tightens as you meet his gaze, feeling the weight of everything that has been left unsaid between the three of you for so long. You take a deep breath, your voice soft but firm when you finally respond. “It’s time to let go, Charles.” Charles' face falls at your words, the weight of their finality hitting him hard. His lips part slightly as if he wants to argue, but no words come. The tension in the air is suffocating, each second stretching out painfully. Carlos remains silent, standing tall beside you, his hand subtly resting on your back for support. He knows this conversation is yours to finish. “It’s not about erasing you from Rafael’s life,” you continue, your voice steady though your heart is pounding in your chest. “It’s about doing what’s best for him. And right now, that means protecting him from the confusion and hurt that the fact that you were too much of a coward to choose him.” 
Charles takes a step back, the anger in his expression dimming into something more fragile. His eyes search yours, perhaps looking for a trace of the bond you once shared, but it’s clear that things have changed too much. Too much time has passed. “I’m not trying to hurt him,” he says, his voice barely above a whisper. “I just… I apologised countless of times, what more do you want from me? I am sorry, okay?” 
“Are you quite done?” Charles flinches at your sharp tone, the weight of your words settling heavily between the three of you. His gaze drops to the ground as if he’s searching for something to say, but nothing comes. Carlos stands steady beside you, his presence strong, comforting, even. “I am sorry, too, about it all.”  
You can feel Carlos’ confused stare on you, and Charles looks at you with the same expression as he asks, “You... do?” 
“I’m sorry that you were cheating on me from the start, I’m sorry you were too weak to stay faithful to me after we got married,” you continue, the words heavy but resolute as they fall from your lips. Charles' expression shifts, a mixture of guilt and pain crossing his face. Carlos’ hand tightens slightly on your back, offering silent support as you finally lay bare what you’ve held inside for so long. “I’m sorry I ignored it for as long as I did, and I’m sorry that I ever found out.” Charles’ face hardens, his eyes clouded with guilt and perhaps a hint of defensiveness as your words hit him. The weight of what you're saying seems to pull him down, and he takes a deep breath as if trying to absorb the impact. He opens his mouth to speak, but you cut him off, not willing to let this moment slip away before you say everything that’s been weighing on your heart. “I’m sorry I ever found out about the lies, but most of all, I’m sorry for Rafael. He deserved better, he deserved a father who was present and loved him without conditions,” you say, your eyes locking with Charles’. “You weren’t there, Charles, you weren’t there before Rafael, and you weren’t going to be there after him. So, I suppose what I’m not sorry for is falling in love with a man who was courageous enough to fill that role for both me and him.” Charles’ lips part as if to argue, but no words form. His eyes betray the guilt and regret he’s been carrying, but there’s nothing left for him to say. He knows it. You know it. Even the mechanics and people around you who have stopped what they are doing to watch this whole thing go down know it. “Finally, I’m sorry that you felt the need and audacity to come down here, now not only have you ruined our marriage, but you’ve also ruined my day-off which I intended to spend with my boyfriend, and our son.” 
Charles flinches at your final words, his face crumpling under the weight of it all. The sting of your truth, laid bare for everyone to hear, leaves him speechless. His bravado has completely evaporated, replaced by a hollow sense of regret and defeat. He opens his mouth as if to respond but quickly closes it, realizing there’s nothing he can say that will undo the damage he caused, the pain he inflicted, or the years he lost. His eyes flicker to Carlos, who stands steady, unmoved by Charles’ turmoil. There’s no room for pity here. “I—” Charles begins but stops as Carlos raises his hand.  
“I think you’ve said enough,” his voice lacks all sympathy for his old friend, his old teammate, “it’s best you should go before you distress my girlfriend, or my son any further.  
Charles’ eyes widen slightly at Carlos’ words, the final blow landing hard. He looks as if he’s been physically struck, his shoulders slumping as any remaining fight drains from him. His gaze flickers between you and Carlos, searching for something—anything—but finding no redemption, no sympathy. There’s nothing left to say. 
He swallows hard, his lips pressed into a tight line, before finally nodding in a reluctant acceptance. “Fine,” he mutters, his voice barely audible. He turns on his heel, walking away with slow, defeated steps. The tension that had gripped the air slowly begins to dissipate as he disappears into the distance, leaving only the echoes of his footsteps behind. 
Carlos turns to you, his hand still resting on your back, but now it’s a comforting gesture rather than a protective one. His expression softens as he searches your face. “Are you okay?” he asks gently. 
You take a deep breath, feeling the weight of everything that’s just happened, but also a sense of relief. “I think so,” you reply, your voice steady despite the emotional whirlwind you’ve just gone through. “It needed to happen.” 
Carlos nods, his thumb brushing soothingly against your back. “He’s not going to ruin this for us. Not today, not ever.” 
You smile faintly, grateful for his support. “No, he’s not. He’s gone now, and I’m finally free of it all.” 
“We’re free of him,” Carlos adds, a reassuring strength in his voice. “You, me, and Rafael. That’s what matters.” 
“Just promise me you’ll be careful on the track today,” you plead, chin resting on his chest as you look up to him.  
Carlos chuckles softly, his warm smile easing the tension that still lingers. “I promise,” he says, his voice light but sincere. He tilts his head, giving you a playful wink. “But you know me, I can’t drive too carefully. It's in my nature to push the limits a bit.” 
You roll your eyes with a small laugh, but your heart flutters slightly at the thought of him racing. It’s something you’ve grown used to, but there’s always that edge of worry. "Just... don’t make me regret asking," you tease, though the concern in your voice is real. 
Carlos leans down, brushing his lips gently against your forehead, the gesture filled with tenderness. "I’ll come back to you both, safe and sound," he whispers softly, his forehead resting against yours for a brief moment. "Always." 
You smile, feeling reassured by his words, and you give him a small nod. "Alright. Go show them what you’re made of, then." 
As Carlos pulls away, you can see the familiar spark in his eyes, the passion and excitement that he always carries before a race. He gives your hand one last squeeze before turning to head toward the car. You watch him for a moment, taking in the sight of him—confident, composed, and ready for whatever comes next. Just before he reaches the garage doors, he turns back and flashes you that signature grin that always makes your heart skip a beat. “For you and Rafael,” he calls out. Your smile widens as you watch him go, knowing that no matter what happens on the track today, you’ll always have each other. 
Tumblr media
It’s not hard for you to find Rafael when you head back to the garage yourself. He’s completely engrossed in conversation with one of Carlos' engineers, pointing out different tools and parts of the car with wide-eyed fascination. His little hands gesture excitedly, and the engineer listens with a warm smile, clearly amused by Rafael’s enthusiasm. Carlos stands off to the side, leaning casually against the wall, arms crossed, watching his son with a look of pure affection and pride. His eyes sparkle as he takes in the sight of Rafael’s excitement, and there’s a certain softness to his expression that makes your heart swell. 
You walk over, standing beside Carlos, who doesn’t take his eyes off Rafael but greets you with a small grin. “He’s already talking like he’s part of the team,” Carlos says quietly, his voice filled with pride. “I wouldn’t be surprised if he’s taking over the pit crew in a few years.” 
You chuckle softly, watching Rafael explain something animatedly, his little voice echoing through the garage. “He’s got your passion,” you say, leaning into Carlos slightly, feeling the warmth of his presence. 
Carlos hums in agreement, his arm slipping around your waist. “Maybe,” he says, his tone affectionate, “but the way he talks about everything… that’s all you. He’s got your curiosity, your heart, so, all my favourite parts of you.” 
“My boyfriend the charmer,” you mumble as you lightly hit him on his chest.
Carlos chuckles, catching your hand gently against his chest before pressing a soft kiss to your knuckles. “Just telling the truth,” he murmurs, his eyes twinkling as he holds your gaze for a moment longer. “You deserve all the charm in the world.” 
You roll your eyes playfully, though you can’t hide the smile tugging at your lips. “You’re lucky you’re good at this, or I might think you’re just trying to get out of bath time for the next few days.” 
Carlos laughs, his warm, deep voice sending a wave of comfort through you. “I’d never do that. Bath time is part of the job.” He leans in slightly, lowering his voice with a mischievous grin. “But if I do this race right, maybe we can negotiate something.” 
You raise an eyebrow, feigning suspicion, but you can’t help the flutter in your chest at the way he always manages to make you feel light and cared for, even in the most mundane moments. “Alright, we’ll see how you perform today,” you tease back “if you win, I’ll let you put a baby in me, how about that?” 
Carlos freezes for a moment, his eyes widening in surprise before a slow, playful grin spreads across his face. “You’re serious?” he asks, his voice filled with both excitement and disbelief. 
You nod, biting your lip, unable to hide your own smile. “If you win today, we can start thinking about it.” 
Carlos lets out a short laugh, running a hand through his hair as if trying to process what you just said. “Well, I’ve never been more motivated to win a race in my life,” he says, his eyes gleaming with a new intensity. 
You chuckle, your heart racing at the look on his face. "Just make sure you’re focused on the track and not… well, other things." 
“Oh, I’ll be focused,” Carlos says, stepping closer and lowering his voice. “But now, I’ve got the best reason in the world to win.” He leans in, brushing his lips against your ear. “For you, and for giving Rafael a baby sister or a brother.” Your breath catches at the sincerity in his voice, and as he pulls back, he flashes you that charming grin again before heading off toward the car. You watch him go, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness settle in your chest. 
Eventually going behind the barriers and watching the race is harder than you’ve expected, you realise. As the laps go by, you keep glancing at Rafael, who’s glued to the action, his eyes wide with admiration for his dad. You smile at the way he clutches his little racing helmet, a miniature version of Carlos’ gear, his excitement evident. It’s clear he’s living every moment of the race through his dad’s performance, just as you are. When Carlos is in the lead, you hold your breath, willing him to stay ahead. When he’s fighting for position, you’re on the edge of your seat, cheering him on with every ounce of energy you have. 
As the final laps approach, you glance at the clock and then at Rafael, who’s practically bouncing with excitement. You can tell he’s just as invested in the outcome as you are. You squeeze his hand, giving him an encouraging smile, and he returns it with a determined nod. 
When Carlos crosses the finish line, the roar of the crowd is deafening, and you let out a cheer of your own, tears of joy welling up in your eyes. You look down at Rafael, who’s jumping up and down, his face beaming with pride and excitement. “He did it!” you shout, lifting him up in your arms as you join in the celebration. 
Caco and a couple of the mechanics help you and Rafael to get to the barriers, weaving through the throng of celebrating fans and team members. As you approach the barriers, Rafael’s excitement is noticeable. His eyes are wide with wonder, and he clutches his mini helmet tightly, bouncing with every step. Caco, with his warm, reassuring smile, offers a few words of congratulations and gives Rafael a high-five. Carlos comes into view, his car parked in the parc fermé. His grin is infectious, and you can see the joy and relief in his eyes as he looks up at you and Rafael. The moment he gets out of the car, he’s enveloped by his team, but his gaze quickly finds you and Rafael. He finds his way to you after getting weighed and you can see him grab his cap before finally rushing towards you. Carlos scoops Rafael up into his arms, spinning him around as they both laugh, and then turns to you, his eyes shining with gratitude and affection. 
“Well, looks like we’ve got a baby sister or brother to start thinking about,” Carlos says with a wink, setting Rafael down so he can pull you a in for a kiss. 
You smile against his lips, feeling the warmth of his embrace and the joy of this moment. When you pull away, you look up at Carlos, your eyes sparkling with love and excitement. “We do, don’t we?” you say softly, your heart full as you take in the sight of your family together in this victorious moment. 
Rafael, still buzzing with excitement, tugs on Carlos’ sleeve, his little voice bubbling over with enthusiasm. “Papa, did you see me cheering? I was so loud!” 
Carlos laughs, his eyes crinkling with joy. “I heard you, buddy. You were the loudest cheerleader out there.” 
As the celebration continues around you, you feel a profound sense of contentment. The day’s events, the race, the emotions—everything has come together perfectly. You take a deep breath, savouring the feeling of being surrounded by the people you love most. 
Carlos pulls you close, wrapping his arms around both you and Rafael. “Thank you for everything today,” he murmurs, his voice filled with sincerity. “You’ve made this day even more special.” 
You rest your head on his shoulder, feeling the warmth of his embrace and the steady beat of his heart. “It’s been an incredible day,” you agree, looking out at the jubilant scene around you. “I wouldn’t have wanted to spend it with anyone else.” 
As you watch him savour the moments with your son before he needs to go for his interview and the podium celebrations, you realise just how lucky you are to have something that only happens every few lifetimes.

GOOD RIDDANCE OP! ; CS55
carlos sainz x aston martin fan!reader . . . after breaking up with your stupid boyfriend your number one idol hooks you up on a date with one of his "sons" which is a driver from the same team your ex boyfriend likes
amgf i'm back to my roots!!! carlos sainz fics 😛 y'know some amgf lore is that carlos was the first driver i knew other than lewis but he's everywhere atp i think everyone knows him and i saw clips of him talking about alonso that i looked him up and saw him and look at me now, insane. maybe this is a little too self indulgent but what can i say, i cater to myself first when writing so... enjoy pwahahahahahaha because i had fun writing this 😋👍

f1wagscentral A new wag in the making? Following the viral tweet of a Fernando Alonso fan, YN LN took F1 fans in a storm with her story time about her ex-boyfriend breaking up with her because of the 2-time World Champion.
In recent news a fan tweeted to YN asking for updates about the date set up by her idol, who confirmed that things are indeed going smoothly which delighted the matchmaker, revealing he knew about their plans.
Fans deduct two drivers in the grid who could be a potential partner for YN which are Lando Norris and Carlos Sainz, with YN's instagram account privated, little information is known. Who are you rooting for, team 🌶️ or 🧡?
