Summary
The first thing Lewis thought when he saw the kid was, fuck, he’s fast. It didn’t matter though, because he was fighting Nico for the championship and Max was in Toro Rosso fighting for points, but then Lewis blinked and Nico was gone. Nico had won, waved a smug smile and a title in Lewis' face and dissapeared off the grid, leaving him with a teammate who was young, hungry, desperate, in their silver car wearing their white suit sporting their Mercedes logo as a last fuck you to Lewis. There, you lost, and you lost me too.
Or, Max goes to Mercedes for 2017

Summary
Charles stares at him intently, “Last time was an anomaly.”
Not for the first time, Max recalls the awkward swell of humiliation after Charles had told him to stop. The hairs on the back of his neck prickle at the memory of everything that followed, “Yeah, that better not happen again.”
After Monaco, Max thought he’d made up his mind about Charles, and their little arrangement.
They’re in Azerbaijan and Charles is everywhere: in his head, in his messages, in his hotel room…
Will Max be able to hold onto his resolve, or will his attempts at self-denial only prolong the inevitable?

Summary
Charles looks like he's fighting a smile when he demands, “Say it again.”
“Boyfriend?” Max makes sure, slightly incredulous, feeling like he's officially lost, squandered, ruined for anyone else.
"Yeah, I– yeah, that.”
Max grins.
“Charles,” he sings, leaning over the lights, close enough that their noses brush, “Be my boyfriend, my Monegasque tart, my sexy smart-mouthed rival–”

Summary
On the drive back to the hotel Max had turned to him, blue eyes fierce and piercing.
“Promise me you won’t stop being angry. You’re angry because you know what you can do. Use it, control it, let it fuel you. Other people won’t understand but that doesn’t matter, you know what you’re capable of.”
You and me, he’d seemed to say, we’re the same.

Or: Charles leaves Ferrari, tries to win a championship, and learns some things about belonging. All the while, Max is there.

Summary
"Alright", he says. "You go first".
Charles hesitates for a moment; rethinks whether or not he's finally making that one mistake that ends him for good. The words tumble out of his mouth almost without permission. "My name is Charles".
The man's smile gets even wider, eyes boring into his. Charles feels a shiver run down his spine. "Pleased to meet you, Charles. I'm Carlos".

Summary
There is no version of love that matches comfort. No, love is like a fist hitting square into his jaw. Love is pain.
Charles smiles, green eyes twinkling under the artificial lights, his slender fingers toying with the loose strings of his bracelet. Max watches, with a heavy weight on his chest bringing him down and a knot tied on his throat. Love hurts. He wants nothing but to reach out and hold his hand and let Charles run his index fingers through his palm, mapping out his veins, but he can’t. He can’t.

"Fine, I will," Charles juts his chin out.
