You Max and Charles were all in a secret relationship but only you and Max were publicly dating each other. You and Max would love to be able to go out publicly with Charles but it’s not possible. So the three of you would have to settle for the secret meetings and the security of the hotel room.
“Max I need to go” you giggled prying yourself out of Max's hold.
“Go where?” He asked
“To see Charles he hasn’t stopped texting me” you tell him.
“He’s so Spoiled and needy” Max grumbles letting you go.
“I wonder why he’s so spoiled and needy” you retorted “but seriously I got to go see him before he loses it” you said giving Max one last kiss.
“Tell him I said to behave” max said as you left his drivers room to meet with Charles.
When you saw Charles he gave you one of his infamous shy smiles. He pulled you in for a hug and you squeezed him tightly as you pulled away.
“Hi Charles” you smiled kissing him on his forehead
“Max hopes you’ve been behaving” you said joking
“I always behave” he mumbled
“Max seems to think differently” you said “he also said that you’re spoiled and needy” you added as Charles backed you up to the wall.
Charles grinned slightly pushing you gently against the wall but being careful not to push you too far as he didn't want to hurt you. He chuckled slightly at the comment about being spoiled and kissed the side of your neck.
"I can't help it if both him and you spoil me"
"Besides" Charles said pulling you closer to him "aren't you just a tiny bit spoiled too?"
“I'm spoiled , I think you have the wrong girl,” you say.
His eyes narrowed in amusement as he looked at you. Then he smiled. "Oh you're definitely the correct girl... and you are definitely spoiled. Don't deny it."
"You love the attention and the affection you get from both me and Max" he said placing his hands on your waist
"Let's both be honest about that"
His words made your cheeks blush slightly and you looked down shyly from his gaze. Your silence told Charles that the statement was true as he chuckled softly at your reaction.
"I know I'm being a bit teasing but it's true" he whispered into your ear.
“I can’t deny it at all” you grinned “Max is so attentive and makes me feel loved and I do like the attention and affection from you as well it makes me feel special and safe” you confessed your cheeks still red from embarrassment at the teasing.
Charles smirked seeing that you agreed he was correct in his assumptions about you “You like the attention you get from us both don’t you?” He said softly, his breath tickling your ear.
“Can you blame I’m dating two of the hottest f1 drivers anyone would the attention from the both of you” you admitted
“So you are also needy and spoiled and what did you mean by telling me to behave?" He asked as he moved his hand to the back of your head and pulled you into a passionate kiss.
You wrapped your arms around his neck pulling him closer to you. His lips were soft and tender and the kiss felt like it would never end. You let your mind wander for a moment, enjoying the moment and the feeling of Charles's body pressed against yours.
“Max wanted to make sure you didn’t start texting or calling me with demands or to pout that we hadn’t given you attention” you tell Charles knowing that he knows all too well how Charles has acted when he feels he doesn’t have his fair share of attention.
“But clearly Max was right in his assumption” you say as Charles pulls you fully into his embrace to kiss you. You kiss back eagerly but pull away “we have to keep our distance in public, you don’t want me to start acting inappropriate here in the alley do you?”
The kiss slowly ended with Charles pulling away from you. His breath heaved slightly and you could see how much he enjoyed the kiss too. His eyes were fixated on your lips as he looked at you.
“I think it’s your turn to behave now” he whispered as he leaned in to kiss you gently on your forehead. The soft kiss made you blush and you felt like you had just melted into Charles's arms.
“I could kiss you all day” Charles sighed placing another tender kiss on your forehead
“But I have to go” he added pulling away from you
“I’ll text later”
You nodded as you watched Charles leave. His words made your mind race as it reminded of how much you wanted to continue your relationship with Charles. All of the texts, the late night meets, and the kisses made up for the fact that you couldn’t be publicly together like you could be with Max.
Going public with Charles was one of the many things that you and the boys talked about. In reality it was an untenable dream. You and Max already get so much hate Max’s hate comes from constantly whining and albeit drive to survive didn’t help the situation. Your hate started when you publicly started dating Max. People called you a gold digging whore and the hate would only get worse if fans found out about your secret relationship with Charles so your and Max's relationship with him would have to stay secret for now.
what you and Charles failed to notice during your intimate moment in the alley and someone took pictures and said pictures would be spreaded all over the internet now.
A couple hours later the boys along with a few other fellow drivers were attending a drivers press briefing.
“And if for Max, who I would like to apologize to real quick, how do you feel about the cheating scandal that your Girlfriend is a part of?” An interviewer asked
“What cheating scandal?” Max asked, confused, glancing at Charles.
“Well not too long ago there were pictures leaked of Charles Leclerc and Y/n l/n having a pretty intimate moment” the same interviewer replied.
Max and Charles shared a look that said fuck it let the world know.
“It isn’t cheating if we’re all dating” Max says with a shrug.
“So what you’re saying is that all three of you are in a relationship?” Another one asked.
“Yes that is correct” Max said
“Why may I ask you to keep this relationship a secret and how long has it been going on for?”
“We’ve been together for a year now and we kept it a secret because fans are known to be quite viscous to drives girlfriends” Max says
“Well Max and Charles I wish you the very best”
“Thank you”
Later that night you were laying in bed In between the boys talking about today.
“So the world of F1 knows now?” You asked
“Yes the world of Formula One knows” max said
“And thank god for that because now I get to have my good luck charm in the garage” Charles says holding onto you.
“No she’s my good luck charm” Max says, flicking Charles on the forehead.
“Ow what was that for?” Charles whined
“For conspiracy of stealing MY good luck charm”
“Oh come on max you had her for all of the 2023 season and won it’s my turn” Charles said
“Nope still mine”
“Boys behave” you say
“Tell max to share”
“No Charles I don’t know want to share”
“If you two don’t don’t stop arguing now I’ll be in Papaya orange for the rest of the season” you say
“I can share” Max says
“Me too”

The Ultimate Lestappen Fic Masterlist ™
Hello all. This list has about 70+ fics within it. That’s just under 1,000,000 words solely dedicated to the Carbonara Leclerc-Verstappens. (yes i counted) I’ve tried to maintain my organization throughout, but if something looks a little janky or feels out of place, let me know. (Lord knows I never made this list thinking I would make it public but alas, here we are) The key is simple:
> (Title) +/= (Multichaptered/One-Shot)
(Summary)
!!! (Link)
• (Tags - please note these are just the tags I saw relevant to myself, double check the fics themselves for any other tags you might deem relevant!) *(Word count)
Now I’ve put a ♥️ next to all of my personal favorites. Remember, this is a masterlist and a fic rec if that’s what you’re looking for. I will never read (or record) any fic that is not up to my personal golden standard; so everything you see below has been read and vetted by yours truly 💋 I will also tag my favorite authors at the bottom of this post so you can go view their pages and send them some love :^) Note: All of these works are on Ao3. There is only one WIP in this list and it is stated with the fic. Now go crazy you animals ;))
(p.s. some of the fic descriptions are quite long, but with respect to the authors wishes I feel that it would be a dishonesty to chop them off though so you’ll have to deal with it) Here we go!!!!!!!! (under the Read More)

“We’re not asking you to ‘woo’ him,” Christian says, looking pained at having to say the word ‘woo’, “We just need others to think you’ve wooed him.”
“I’m not following,” Max says, frowning.
“A PR relationship,” Poppy explains. “You pretend to date, making the public think you’re all happy and in love. Then you reap the benefits of being in a relationship without actually having to put in the effort or work.”

Lando snorts. “Kids, it all started when I told your father, who had won two World Driver Championships at that point, that he sucked at driving.”

The thing about having a racing helmet that constantly displays your emotions for the whole world to see, is that you kind of get used to it after a while. These days Charles almost forgets it’s even a thing.
Almost.

!!! https://archiveofourown.org/works/43882683#main
• Pining, Sleep trope, Fluff *7.4k
> You’ll be Alright = ♥️
Charles is not an idiot. He knows there’s a part of him that has been at least a little bit in love with Max for as long as they’ve known each other. But he’s always been able to shove it down. Burying it under rivalries and competitiveness until it was getting hard to differentiate between love and hate. And that had worked, for a really long time.
And then Max had to go and barge into his life and be really fucking cute with his baby.
!!! https://archiveofourown.org/works/45348790#main
• Kidfic, Fluff, Slight Angst, Max is great with kids, Falling in Love *19.2k

• Angst, Falling in Love, Podcast!Max, Identity Hiding *20.4k
> Violent Delights +
Max can’t smell any of his usual aggression beneath the unusual spatter of Omega, sweet yet violent, and it makes his head spin.
“Max,” is all Charles says, voice breathless. He looks over his shoulder, quick, hasty, looks back. His eyes are wider, if possible. “We have— we have fucked up, I think.”
!!! https://archiveofourown.org/works/41445333#main
• A/B/O, Alpha!Max, Alpha!Charles turns into Omega!Charles *15.5k
> Petrol =
Max scoffs. He steps closer, smile a little real. It lets Charles see the tiny freckle on his lip, dark and undying, always zoomed in on when his face is in HD. Chuckling, Max scratches at his stubble. “I didn’t know you liked Red Bull.”
Automatically, Charles corrects, “I hate it.” It says too much.
!!! https://archiveofourown.org/works/41359482#main
• Smut, Angst, Denial, Bottom!Max *4.2k
> It All Reminds Me of You =
Pierre turns, and with him, the object of his distasteful frown. “Why do you have a Red Bull cap in your apartment?”
Charles tenses. He looks between Pierre and the cap, still held tepid between two fingers, dark blue and flat-brimmed and garishly branded with a sick sense of obvious. It feels wrong, just looking at it. There’s a big red 1 emblazoned on the front.
!!! https://archiveofourown.org/works/40279869#main
• Angst, Smut, Secret Relationship, Switch!Max, Switch!Charles *3k
> Proximity =
These kinds of smiles on Max are reserved for other people. Like Daniel, like Lando, like those Dutch guys that come around sometimes and he likes to yell with.
Not Charles.
It’s probably the fourth time Max is acting noticeably strange around him that he notices the freckle on his lip.
!!! https://archiveofourown.org/works/40737591#main
• Angst, Smut *6.7k

• Magical Realism, Compatibility Simulations, Fluff, Slight Angst, Some Maxiel in the beginning *16.9k
> In the Dark You Can’t See Shiny Cars +
In the summer of 2022, the quiet neighbourhood of Les Amants in Monaco becomes the epicentre of a strange weather phenomenon.
or
A dark cloud hangs over Charles’ head—unfortunately not just a metaphorical one. Max sets out to investigate.

• Magical Realism, Charles accidentally controls the weather, Fluff, Slight Angst *14.5k
> Panem et Circenses =
Panem et circenses, the Romans called it. Bread and circus to appease the people.
The bread is always in short supply these days, ever since the wheat fields burned down. So that just leaves-
“The brave new world of Formula One,” Crofty’s voice comes out distorted from the circuit speakers. “Ten teams. Twenty cars. An auspicious new technical programme that combines the top edge AI technology with the most skilled drivers to deliver the best spectacle ever seen.”
-
In a dystopian near-future, Charles and Max drive for survival.
!!! https://archiveofourown.org/works/40704441#main
• Dystopian future, Sentient F1 cars, oppressive Regime, Hope, Angst, Falling in Love *13.2k

The grainy pictures are pieced together like a crude comic strip, sketching a poorly thought-out narrative arc that somehow made it onto the front page of every sleazy newspaper.

Max navigates the aftermath of being outed in the press, and Charles is always there.

> Soak Up the Sun =
“What do you think?” Charles asks, leaning back into the seat as he turns the laptop so Max can see the options.
“I think—” Max starts, “—that this can wait until after FP1.”
Charles’s lips curl downwards, and Max wants to kiss the look off his face. “There’s still like an hour until it starts. There’s no one even looking for me yet.”
!!! https://archiveofourown.org/collections/Lestappen_Summer_Exchange_2022/works/40998603#main
• Fluff, Non-Linear timeline, Getting together *6.8k
> Like a Prayer =
It was sinful to have such thoughts but then Charles had never been one to shy away from sinful desires. Stood at the alter the priest looked glowing, his strong cheekbones and jawline illuminated by a wash of colour. Charles’ gaze followed the beams of light back to the stained glass, he tried not to think too long about the image of Christ etched on to the window. This was a sacred place, but there could be nothing more deserving of veneration than the God who had so kindly sculpted the body of Father Verstappen.
Or
Charles is an F1 driver and Max is a sexy priest.
!!! https://archiveofourown.org/collections/Formula_One_Kinkmeme_Round_One/works/44838136#main
• Smut, Religion, Priest!Max *3.2k
> We Go Way Back =
They were the same in the end. Yes, Max was an alpha, and Charles was an omega, but that didn’t matter. If you took racing from either of them, there wouldn’t be anything left.

!!! https://archiveofourown.org/collections/Formula_One_Kinkmeme_Round_One/works/44205019#main
• Oral fixation kink, Smut, Fluff *2.7k
> FIA Approved Stress Relief =
It’s the strangest briefing Charles has ever been a part of. Ever. Which is saying something because this time last year he was sat wide eyed as the Fia tried to bring in mandatory checks for Fia approved underwear and intimate piercings. A few team principles had helpfully offered their services and it had ended in a rather heated debate over whether that fell under their job description.
It didn’t compare to this though.
As director of the GPDA it’s been left to George to run through the basics of the brand new Fia approved sex doll. Charles was sure he had misheard but no, as it turns out, the Fia really have lost their minds.
!!! https://archiveofourown.org/collections/Formula_One_Kinkmeme_Round_One/works/44059752?view_adult=true#main

“What are you doing?” Charles asked, his voice cracking.
Max blinked at him once before he smirked and said, “Well... I was going to kiss you.”
“Why?”
“Because I want to.”
“Why?” Charles repeated, feeling like his legs were going to give out.
“Is that not a good enough reason?” Max asked.
OR: The childhood best friends to lovers fairy-tale-soulmates fic that nobody asked for. Charles has been in love with Max since he was seven years old.

• Fluff, Smut, Best friends to lovers, Slight Angst *76.8k
> Viva la Miami =
Max raced all over the world and was used to different climates. But there was something about Miami’s sticky, muggy, make-your-phone-screen-fog-up kind of scorching heat that made him feel fucking crazy.
It made him want to strip naked and jump in the bright blue water surrounding his hotel.
It made him want to fuck.
OR: Max and Charles hook up for the first time, and it's very different than what Max had pictured.
!!! https://archiveofourown.org/works/46963513#main
• Smut, PWP, Top!Charles *8.2k
> I’ll Be Right Beside You = ♥️
Max stared at Charles’ closed eyes and how they twitched in his sleep. Objectively, Max knew that Charles was probably the most beautiful man he had ever seen. But... this was Charles.
Charles Leclerc.
Big, cry-baby Charles.
Sauber #2 driver Charles.
When did he decide that Charles The Driver would become Charles The Boyfriend?
He wishes he could remember.
OR: The self-indulgent Amnesia AU that nobody asked for. This is my love story to Charles Leclerc, thank you for coming along. Warning: this fic may break you.

• Smut, Fluff, Falling in Love *53k
> And That’s How I Foksmashed Dad’s Championship Trophy =
All of that would have been forgivable if not for the Green-Eyed Monster’s complete disregard for the pre-contracted occupation rights of Max’s lap. Such rights had long been pre-determined and belonged to Sassy (and occasionally to Jimmy, she admitted begrudgingly). However, no amount of quiet hisses and vicious glares seemed to penetrate the creature’s thick skull, and he would greedily occupy Max’s thigh for more than 95% of any given afternoon. Sometimes with his head, sometimes with his feet, and a few times he even straddled his entire body over Max; the latter could not have been comfortable for Max, as the Green-Eyed Monster was enormously overweight compared to Sassy.
!!! https://archiveofourown.org/works/43833321#main
• Fluff, POV!Sassy and Jimmy, Funny *6.5k
> Set My Midnight Sorrow Free =
He doesn’t blame Max, not really.
If he could have Charles for one night, he would never let him go either.
Maybe he isn’t the one who is losing; Max is also playing a losing game.
You can’t open yourself to Charles and try to exist in his charmed life without becoming irrevocably enamoured.
When Max let Charles walk into his motorhome, when he let Charles slip into his existence, Max didn’t know it then but the battle was already lost.

"So, do we need a signal for when things are going downhill and you need me to save you?" He asks, a glimmer in his eyes that seems so unfamiliar yet familiar that Max feels it like a sucker punch to the stomach.
"Just have the vodka waiting." Max laughs, flicking his gaze down to the gentle grip that Charles has his wrist in before he releases and Max turns around with pink cheeks and crosses the restaurant to join up with his date once again.

“Thanks,” Max says, feeling like an idiot as he takes the books, their fingers brushing for a split second. This was not how he wanted to meet again. “Again, I’m so sorry.”

“It doesn’t have to be a big deal or anything, right? It can be just about sex, nothing else.” Charles steps forward, into Max’s space.

“Fuck,” Max whispers, screwing his eyes shut, breathing deeply through his mouth. “I shouldn’t, I really shouldn’t-“
Charles cuts him off by lurching forward and pressing a kiss to Max’s mouth, quick and fleeting, but then Max groans, grabs Charles’s waist, pulls him closer, kisses him hard. Charles melts into it immediately, overwhelmed by Max’s scent, by his hands on Charles’s waist, his mouth on Charles’s.

lestappen x reader
what i’ve been working on recently :P
CHEATING
“ It started out kind of normal. You knew that Max and the boy were close but you always assumed it was more brotherly. It was the last race before summer break , and you were never the type to party, so him being out late with his buddies post-race was not a big deal to you. Only he never came back to the hotel that night. Instead of waking up in Max’s warm embrace , you woke up to images of your boyfriend stumbling out of the ferrari drivers bedroom , hair mussed and lips red. You wouldn’t even have been that mad if he had just asked. This was all too much. You had to talk to Max. Maybe he could explain this all away… or maybe not? “

There's no place I'd rather be than in your arms

Summary: Charles and Max crashes during a race, Charles ends up injured but despite that, he only seems to care about the other's well-being rather than his own.
Pairing: Charles Leclerc & Max Verstappen
Warnings: Swearing, blood, injuries (nothing graphic), hospital
Word count: 2.6k
Author's note: I'm very new to F1 and writing for this fandom, so please be kind. Also I've never written car scenes at all before lol. Also, I didn't intend for this to be romantic, but read it however you want.
Even away from the circuit, people are watching the race on TV. Some want Verstappen to win again, some have their bets put on Hamilton.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
30 minutes in, and the race is only getting more interesting. The cars zoom around the track and the audience is cheering on enthusiastically. The commentators are watching and pointing out every movement of every driver closely. 
Charles has moved from fourth to second by overtaking Lando Norris and Lewis Hamilton. It's a quite cloudy day, he hopes that there won't be any rain. Rain only ever complicates things when it comes to Formula one.  It's the classic British weather, gray and all. It's quite the opposite from last week’s race and location.
The Ferrari driver is trying his hardest to reach the leading Red Bull car by every passing second, pushing himself and the car to its limits. 
When racing, it's like Max and Charles forget about any friendliness that exists outside of the track. Any of the nice moments together just vanishes. Now, their focus is solely on winning the Grand Prix and scoring points.
“Push, push.” 
A voice comes through the intercom, Charles hears the man's voice loud and clear.
“I'm trying.” 
Charles' accent is obvious, even through the slight static noises. His pressure on the gas pedal increases, and he accelerates. But everytime he seems to get a second closer to Verstappen, his rival speeds faster. 
The man at the pit wall says something else, but the words go in through one ear and out the other. Charles is too concentrated to listen. He needs to pass Max, now.
As they get closer to a turn, he can picture the commentators yelling into their microphones about how Verstappen and Charles will be fighting for position any second now.
Any second.
“ …. Overtake, now!”
Charles turns the steering wheel, so does Max. It's a smooth turn, and the Red Bull driver can feel his own heartbeat quickening upon realizing how close the Ferrari is getting. Speaking of, Hamilton is catching up to them as well.
“Don’t let Charles pass you.”
Max quickly replies with a simple and straight to the point: “Understood.”
Everything around them feels like a blur when they speed down the straight, Charles getting closer and closer while Hamilton struggles to reach the two cars at the very front.
They're fighting for position, one front wheel almost touching the other’s. Charles adjusts his grip on the steering wheel for a brief moment, his hands holding it even firmer now. 
Another sharp turn incoming.
The audience and every team member is holding their breaths at this point, just watching the scene unfold. The Ferrari team are intensely watching; praying Charles will be successful in his overtake. Meanwhile, Christian Horner and his team seem disappointed. They can't let anyone else but Max win this.
Charles swerves to the outside, keeping Max near the apex. The adrenaline is rushing through their veins, but everything comes to a sudden stop when The Red Bull car’s front wing touches the rim of the Ferrari.
Even the slightest touch can make these cars spin out of control.
There's not much Charles can do at that moment, the spinning is way too fast for him to regain control over the vehicle. As his breath catches in his throat, he accepts the fate he cannot escape.
The audience cheering comes to a sudden stop, and they collectively gasp when there's a loud crash being heard across the circuit.
Charles Leclerc has hit the barrier within seconds. 
One of the wheels has flown off and the right side is completely wrecked. There's pieces of metal all over the ground surrounding the car. It's nothing a simple pit stop will fix.
The scent of burnt rubber fills the air, and the team members are yelling on the intercoms. No response from their driver.
“Charles? Are you okay?”
There's silence again, before Charles can be heard breathing. Fast but heavy breaths. Then, he groans; slowly coming back to his senses after those eventful five seconds. Everything happened so quickly he almost couldn't register it all properly.
“Are you okay?”
It's his team principal speaking this time, sounding very worried.
Charles blinks, opening his eyes and giving it another try to properly catch his breath. His vision is blurry, and there's a pounding pain in his body.
“Charles, say something if you can hear me.”
The commentators, audience and everyone alike is in disbelief of what's just happened. Everything is still, every sound reaching Charles’ ear comes off as muffled and distant. A hiss of paint escapes even when he tries to shift his sitting position a little.
Is he imagining things or is there blood running down his back? Maybe he doesn't want to know the answer to his own question this time.
Finally, the Ferrari driver speaks, and when he does, his tone is unreadable. 
“What happened?” He sounds confused, disoriented if you will. He knows well he'd crashed, but maybe he's seeking reassurance before the whole reality of the situation settles in.
“A collision with Verstappen. I’m asking you again- are you feeling alright? … Are you injured?”
No immediate response besides from an audible ‘fuck’ coming from Charles. With a sluggish motion, he reaches his arm up to move the visor up.
“... Max? Is he- is he okay?” His own worries are making themselves clear in his voice, as if he's desperate for an answer.
The team principal sighs. “You’re not supposed to worry about him right now, Charles. The Marshalls and the medical crew are on their way over. Stay still and calm.”
The Ferrari driver lets out a strained breath, finding himself closing his eyes again at the ever growing pain. Pulsing through his muscles and bones, down his spine and his whole back.
“Is Max okay?” Charles asks again, maybe the conversation is just a distraction from the situation. Or, he really does care about Max Verstappen that much.
A moment of silence before another man at the pit wall speakers through the radio. “We’ve been told he's okay. A little shaken up, but no injuries.”
The Monegasquan doesn't get the chance to speak again, before a crew member does.
“Can you feel your legs? Your arms? Do you feel any pain?”
“.... Are you sure he's fine? He didn't get hurt?” 
He really is desperate, he needs to know how his on-track rival is doing. He'd hate himself if they both got hurt because of all this.
“This isn't about Max. But, yes, we're sure. Please tell me if you're feeling any pain.”
It's clear from the start Charles isn't in the correct headspace to cooperate with the other members of the team. Even though he refuses to admit his own situation, the pain is seeping into his tone.
The team principal is just about to break the brief silence before Charles speaks again. All while the medical crew is getting closer.  “Tell Max I’m not angry. I don't care that he crashed into me.”
“But- you're probably injured, Charles. For fuck’s sake-”
“Tell him that, it's all I want.”
“Fine, I will. Now-”
“How’s Carlos?”
“Carlos is okay too, he'll see you at the hospital once everything is over. Now, please, take a deep breath. I know you feel stressed and hurt.”
Charles gives in and he takes a deep breath, he can hear the medical team and the car in a distance now. “I want to see him, right now.”
“Who? Carlos?”
“Max.”
“That won't happen. Tell me where it hurts the most, Charles.”
It's a quick paced conversation, leaving little to no air between every exchanged sentence between the driver and the team.
“At the hospital, tell him… to come to my room.” It's getting more difficult to make the words come out with his usual ease, the pain eating away at him is getting in the way. 
“With Christian too? Or just Verstappen?”
“Fuck no- Horner doesn't give a shit that I’m hurt.” Another quiet groan slips past his lips, though this time it might be his annoyance directed at Red Bull's team principal rather than anything else. “He just wants Max to win.”
“Stop talking about him for one second. Keep calm, that's all I’m asking you to do.” 
“- Christian will find his way to blame the crash on us, even if I’m fucking bleeding.”
It all feels like a haze when the medical crew arrives by the crashed Ferrari, helping Charles out of the car as the driver struggles to stand and properly support himself. As he's being led into the ambulance, the overwhelming pain and anxiety might as well knock him out.
The helmet’s been removed along with the rest of the gear at this point; gloves, earbuds, balaclava. The medical crew is gently examining him, checking the blood and bruises at the side of his back and if he's injured anywhere else.
It was a hard crash, and it definitely left its marks on Charles. Before he knows it, he's been taken from the circuit to the nearby hospital. He’d passed out in the back of the ambulance, when he wakes up again the pain has lessened. It feels dull. He must’ve been given medications.
It's not the worst crash in the history of Formula One, but it will still be remembered.
The fluorescent lights are bright when Charles finally opens his eyes, becoming aware of his surroundings and the hospital room he finds himself in. White walls and gray boring floor. Plain looking chairs and a shelf which lacks any decorations. There’s only two books in there and a plant made out of plastic.
The room is empty, but there are distant voices coming down the hall behind the closed door. He prays that the press isn’t here, it's probably the last thing he wants right now. 
He wants it to be just him and Max.
Just Charles Leclerc and Max Verstappen.
The door opens, and a nurse comes in. Dressed in the usual hospital attire. The conversation is short lived, and he's barely paying attention. 
He's injured, he was bleeding- blah, blah, blah.  Where is his promised visitor?
“- Just let me know if you need anything, there's water on the side table if you need it. You do have two visitors, but after that I'd suggest getting some more rest.”
Charles gives a brief nod in response and the nurse soon disappears through the same door. A few beats of silence before steps can be heard approaching the room again. It's Carlos… and Max.
The two seem to whisper to themselves, as if to decide who would go into the room first. Carlos ends up staying out in the hallway, and Max steps inside. Closing the door shut behind him, before slowly approaching the bed.
“I heard you were really worried for me.” Max speaks up without any proper greeting, his tone is gentle and a little quiet. Far from the blunt type he'd usually be during race weekends. The Dutch man brings a chair over and sits down, Charles watches in silence.
Charles shifts, the movement itself doesn’t hurt as much anymore, but he’d be lying if he said his current situation wasn't uncomfortable, the way he’s still somewhat lethargic and the way his change of clothes feel against his skin. 
He doesn’t want to be here, but at least Max is here… with him.
“I was- I am worried about you.” he replies, his voice coming out weak but the genuine affection doesn’t go unnoticed to the other. Max can’t help but smile; a mixture of sadness, worry and relief on his face. 
Sad to see the fellow driver injured, but relieved to know he’s okay.
Max leans back in the chair and tilts his head slightly to the left. He lets out a quiet breath before saying: “But you’re the one in pain here, not me.”
“You’re right, but… “ Charles pauses, it’s unclear if he’s trailing off intentionally or not. “It doesn’t make me any less worried about you.”
A beat of silence, Max seems to think about what to say. Contemplating his choice of words as he fiddles with his hands. “... I worried about you too, a lot. Carlos too, of course.” He almost looks like he’s about to say something else, but he keeps his mouth shut.
The Red Bull driver doesn’t ask the words aloud, but the look in his eyes as their gazes meet says it all. His blue eyes glimmer in the bright light, as if to ask ‘how are you doing?’
“I’ve been better,” Charles says, trying to play it off like no big deal. “I think I’ll be out of here soon.”
“What about next week? WIll you be able to race?” 
The questions are quite surface-levelled, but Charles can feel there’s an underlying tone to them, other worries that Max is not saying outright. 
“We’ll see about that, but if I can’t do it, you’ll have to fight Carlos for a win instead.”
“It wouldn’t be as fun to race against Carlos” Max comments, looking down at his hands for a second. “It wouldn’t be the same thing, but- don’t tell him that.”
Charles raises an eyebrow, finding what he’d said a little amusing. 
“I won’t let him know that you obviously think I’m the better Ferrari driver.” He can’t stop himself from chuckling. His laugh is more often than not contagious and Max laughs quietly too. The worries eyes and soft smile remain on Max’s expression, it don’t seem like it will disappear anytime soon
The air is light, and so is the tone of their conversation. As if it’s an unspoken rule of theirs to not get overly personal in moments like this, especially when they know someone’s standing right outside the door.
“Can I ask what Christian is saying about all of this?” Charles suddenly asks, his own facial features softening. He never takes his eyes off of Max. There are so many things left unsaid in the silence filling between them, but they never delve further into it.
“He’s pretty upset, … I don’t think you’d want more details.”
Charles slowly nods, and he doesn’t ask any more questions regarding Red Bull’s team principal.
Max speaks again: “I think Carlos wants to see you now, I’d imagine he’s still a little shaken up too.” He rises from his seat before the other man can even let the words register in his hazy mind. Max is about to turn and leave before he faces Charles again.
“I’m really glad to know you’re okay-” he cuts himself off as if to think about what to say next. “I just want you to know that.”
Charles smiles; brighter than before and shifts another time. Without a word, he reaches his arms out in a cautious manner.
“Just hug me already.” he says, but he only got half way through the sentence before he feels Max’s arms around him. 
A careful grip - not wanting to hurt the other - but still one full of affection and care. Neither of them want to let go, and if one of them weren’t injured, Max would’ve pat his back too.
Nothing more is said after that, Max slowly pulls away from the hug. Knowing he should go so Carlos can get some alone time with Charles as well. The man lying on the bed watches as Max turns around and walks out. 
From rivals on the track to close friends in a hospital room, without the constant eyes on them and the press watching their every move.

i'll sink my teeth right into it
a vampire!Max x human!Charles Oneshot
Tumblr media
"You have some strange kinks and are apparently into guys. So what?"
- "We both know that is not what was happening, Charles."
or the one where Charles finds out that his opponent is a vampire and also that he is kind of into it.
words: 4.7k
warnings: mentions of blood and sex but nothing graphic
Hurriedly finishing up the text message to his mother Charles used his shoulder to push open the door to the club's bathroom. He pocketed his phone as he was about to step into a stall but then stopped in his tracks when his eyes fell onto the scene unfolding right in front of him.
Granted he was a little bit maybe a lot of bit drunk after this long and tedious sprint race weekend. Yet, what he saw sobered him up faster than a cold shower.
Reigning Formula One world champion and his rival since childhood days Max Verstappen had his back turned to him, one hand holding his large frame up against the wall, the other on the hip of a man Charles recognized as one of the bar staff of the club.
Motionless in shock Charles watched Max' mouth working against the smaller man's neck. The bartender's eyes were closed in bliss, a look of pure arousal sprawled on his face.
A strange jolt of electricity that Charles could not quite pinpoint ran through him causing him to take a deep audible gasp for oxygen.
Upon hearing the sound Max' head turned towards him at lightning speed and once his darkened eyes met his, Charles officially lost the last of his senses. Following a horrified glance at the other driver’s blood smeared lips Charles turned in place and marched right back towards the door. Whatever the fuck was going on here, he wanted absolutely nothing to do with it. He had always secretly assumed Max was into some strange and weird shit, especially since him and Kelly had broken up last year. However this, this was a level he had not seen coming.
He lifted his hand to push open the door but instead of wood, his fingers connected with the material of a cold black dress shirt. How had he gotten there so fast? His eyes met the now once again blue toned ones of the other man who was currently using his shirt sleeve to wipe blood off his chin.
Maybe it was not blood, Charles tried to reason with himself, maybe this was some strange foreplay Max was into. Who was he to judge?
“Charles, wait.” Max’ voice was raspy yet strong. “Let me explain.”
Charles tried to shrug nonchalantly. “Explain what? "You have some strange kinks and are apparently into guys. So what?"
Max had the nerve to chuckle. "We both know that is not what was happening, Charles."
And he was right. Of course Charles knew. Or at least some part of him knew. Mainly he could not believe what he had witnessed. He still tried to make sense of it whilst trying his hardest not to stare at the red spot still prominent in the corner of Max’s mouth. It could not be. This was not real. This was some weird fetish shit. But deep down, Charles knew it wasn’t.
“Please let me explain.”, the Dutchmen tried again. “But not here. Meet me at the hotel? I have to take care of some stuff first.” He nodded his chin toward the bartender leaning against the restroom wall as if in a daze. “Please don’t tell anyone. I don’t want to compel you. It fucks with your brain and you need your brain to drive. Please?”
Charles felt himself nod very slowly, his mind not catching up with the situation in any way whatsoever. Because this could not be real. This was some twisted prank and there were cameras everywhere. There had to be. Right?
“We are at the Hilton. This is my key card. I will meet you there, alright?”
Charles stared at Max’s extended hand, his heart beating so loudly he could hear the thumping in his ears. With one last confused yet horrified glance at Max’s face he reached for the card and then got the fuck out of there.
~
Save to say, this was not an ideal situation. Max knew he should have been more careful, should have looked for a locked room, should have taken the bartender back to the hotel. But he had been so thirsty, so filled with adrenaline after he had continued his winning streak. He had not been thinking straight until the warm liquid had been running down his ice cold throat. And even then it had been too late. Post bite clarity really was a thing he realized.
He felt strange knocking on the door to his own hotel room, but he had to try everything in his power to not scare the Monasque on the other side of it. Max could hear steps behind the wood, a faint heartbeat that rapidly grew in speed. It was obviously not his own.
The door opened and he got a look at Charles’ scared face as he waited for Max to come in.
Once they were alone and Charles was apparently happy with their positions - him close to the door and Max very far away from him, not that it would matter if it came down to it - he met his eyes. “What the actual fuck, Max?”
Max groaned. “Believe me, I did not want you to see this.”
“Well maybe you should have thought about that before using a public restroom to suck on some guy’s neck.”
He had him there. Post bite and all that.
“So..” Charles began and gestured wildly as he paced up and down the small space between the door and the bed. “It’s some weird fetish? Because if so, that is totally cool and also totally not my business.”
Oh, how Max wished it was. “It is not, no.”
Charles took a deep breath, his heart speeding up in the process, pumping more blood through his body to provide his lungs with oxygen. Thankfully, Max had just had his fill.
“So you were licking up that guy’s blood because…”
“Because I need it to survive, yes.” Max finished for him.
“Because you are…”
“A vampire.” Max sighed. “I know it sounds super cringey.”
“No you’re not.”
“Yes I am.”
“No, you’re not.”
Max sighed again and stood up to move right in front of the other man in the blink of an eye to prove a point. “Yes I am.”
Upon his suddenly close appearance Charles had pressed himself against the door, his eyes wide open in fear.
“I’m not going to hurt you, Charles. I’m not a monster.”
“You drank some guy’s blood!”
Max ran his hands through his hair and returned to the armchair on the other side of the room at normal speed.
“How long…I mean, you were a child when I was a child. I saw you!”
“It happened last year before I broke up with Kelly. It…it wasn’t safe for P to be around me anymore. It was better this way.” Max grimaced. The memory still pained him. One night of hell had turned his whole life around and destroyed the future he had imagined with the woman of his dreams and the girl he had thought of as his daughter. Now he was the asshole who abandoned them. But better the asshole who left than the asshole who lost control of himself and did things he would regret later on.
“Does she know? Kelly?”
Max shook his head, noticing that Charles' breathing pattern had slowed down as he seemed to wrap his head around this. It was happening rather fast. He was impressed. But then, Charles had always been rather methodical.
“The only people that know are GP and Horner. Not even my family knows.”
“But I saw your vitals and stuff on the Redbull screens. You have a heartbeat and all that.”
As he was saying: Methodical. Max liked that about Charles. In hindsight maybe it was good that he had walked in on his feeding instead of someone else.
“It’s all faked. Just please don’t tell anyone, okay? Not even Alex. Nobody.”
Charles scoffed. “Max, they would put me in a mental institution if I told them Max Verstappen is a vampire.”
“So you won’t tell people?”
“Obviously not.” Charles glanced at the door. “Just don’t eat from me or whatever it is you do, okay?”
Then he left without another word.
Max stared at the closed door. It definitely could have gone worse.
~
It was four weeks later and once again Max had found himself in a not so ideal situation. He was actually quite good at finding them, he noticed. Not that he was actually searching for them, they more so stumbled upon him and then he had to deal with the aftermath.
He was currently leaning against the bar in Lando’s apartment, who was celebrating his birthday. All had been fine. Max had socialized, Max had drunk alcohol to dull his senses, Max had pretended to be a human in every way he possibly could. He had made sure to breath, expanding and collapsing his chest in a speed that was appropriate and normal for the setting. He had slowed down his movements, avoided too much eye contact and pretended he could not hear the blood pumping through everybody’s veins in the room. It all had gone very very smoothly.
Until Martin had broken the glass, one of the shards slicing through the palm of his hands, the droplets of dark red blood falling onto the couch table.
Max had held still as a statue, his breathing stopped, convinced that just the scent would make him snap. He had eyed the door judging it as being too suspicious when he left now. This was truly very not ideal.
He was still motionlessly watching the moment of panic unfold, people yelling and bringing napkins and towels to clean up the blood everywhere - hands surely bled a lot, didn’t they? - when out of nowhere a warm hand wrapped around his still forearm and he got dragged along the hallway of the apartment and into Lando’s guest bedroom that was currently used as a coat storage for the guests.
The clicking of the door lock zoned him back into the moment and he stared at Charles’ concerned face in confusion.
“Your eyes are literally black, man. Get a hold of yourself.”, the Monasque scolded him and Max walked over to the floor length mirror by the closet to take a look at himself.
His cheeks were covered in dark blue veins, his irises expanded to their maximum size; he could feel the fangs poking against his bottom lip from the inside. God, he hoped in the chaos nobody had paid attention to him. Well, except for Charles, who had admittedly been avoiding him as best as possible in the past few weeks.
“Are you okay?” There was now more concern than anger in Charles’ voice, his French accent more prominent in the soft way he spoke.
Max closed his eyes, willing the blue to appear back in them, but to no avail. “I’m trying. It’s just…the smell…I haven’t fed in a bit…I…wow.”
“Alright. That’s okay.” Charles slipped right into problem solving mode as he ran his fingers through his already messy mop of hair. “We can fix this…okay…hm.”
Max watched him nod to himself in the mirror as he stepped closer and then opened the first few buttons of his dress shirt to expose his neck.
“Here. Bite me.”
Max spun in non-human speed and stared at his fellow driver. “Absolutely not. I promised you not to do that.”
Charles shrugged. “Well it’s this or going outside. What will it be, Max?”
~
Charles knew this was insane. Offering himself up to whatever the fuck Max was now as some sort of bait. Yet, he had to admit that ever since he had learned of Max’ little secret he had fallen down a rabbit hole of internet searches he only allowed himself to do when he was entirely alone using a VPN and incognito mode. He had found more info than expected, mostly shit probably but some accounts had sounded rather convincing to him. Above all, the common denominator had been that being bitten was a feeling like no other before.
Charles would not call himself curious by nature. He was more of the obsessive type. The type that had to have something once they put their mind to it. He had wanted to drive an F1 car, so he did. He had wanted to be part of Ferrari, so he was. He wanted to know what it felt like, so now he would.
“I can’t.”
“I don’t have HIV or something. Not sure if that matters.”
Max shook his head, the dark veins under his eyes fascinated and petrified Charles equally. “It’s not that. Just…there is too much muscle in your neck..it’s difficult…not that I like thought about it before…my brain just kind of does naturally….always…not that I ever would…bite you…until now…I guess”
Seeing a being that made his instincts scream RUN in a pile of stuttering mess made Charles chuckle quietly. “Where would be better for you then? It’s fine. Go for it. You have my permission, Max.”
Charles blinked, he swore that was the only thing he did. But suddenly he found himself shirtless on his stomach on the bed, all coats and jackets strewn across on the carpeted floor. He felt Max’s cold hands against his sides as he pressed him down against the mattress.
Fucking hell.
“Are you 100% sure about this?” Max questioned again, his fingers seemingly shaking in anticipation against Charles’ skin. “I will heal you right up after it, but it might make you weak for a bit.”
“Next weekend is not a race weekend. It’s okay.”
Charles knew instinctively that this was wrong, that he should neither allow nor encourage this. But god, if he did not want just this. Maybe Max was emitting some sort of weird pheromone that clouded Charles’ mind. It had to be that.
“Alright. This will be quite intense, you won’t be able to tell me to stop. Still sure?”
“Just fucking do it, Max!”
Before he could take his next breath, he felt cold soft lips against the side of his lower back. Shit. This was actually happening. Suddenly he felt very vulnerable in his position of prey. Charles flinched as something sharp pierced his skin in two spots, his abs tightened to distract from the pain of the piercing.
“It’s not even that inten- oh wow.”
Charles squirmed against the mattress as something wet - most probably Max’ tongue ran over his skin to collect the blood that had been pooling in the new wound on his back.
Charles could feel his muscles relax instantly, his brain clouded in some kind of fog that turned into different colors. He had never felt happier, it felt as if euphoria was pumped straight into his veins with every beat of his heart. He could almost hear the blood moving through him, being replaced with joy and colors and fireworks. He had never taken drugs before but he assumed this is what it felt like and now he understood how people got addicted to it.
Unable to move on his own accord, he heard himself moan somewhere far away in pure ecstasy. Was he even in this room anymore? Maybe his body was, his mind felt millions of miles away, swirling through galaxy after galaxy, the milky way just a small dot in the distance.
His hips moved against the mattress and he noticed he had gotten hard as another moan escaped him with the friction. God, he was aroused, and high, and most definitely not in control anymore. His hips kept rutting against the mattress, chasing a release he suddenly so desperately needed. Somehow he was watching himself from above, Max still sucking on the wound on his back, one of his cold hands stabilizing Charles’ hips, the other holding his own body up against the mattress.
Not able to help himself, Charles grunted and humped against the mattress at a feverish pace. He had never needed anything more in his whole life. He was craving it. He felt starved of whatever lay after.
Another deep groan escaped past his lips, this time muffled by a pillow that he was almost sure had not been next to his face moments ago. He clenched his jaw not to scream out a loud, instead he managed to huff out “Oh…fuck…Max…shit.” With a final rut he caught the release he had been running towards, his brain spinning and twirling through colors he was not sure even existed. He could hear the earth moving or maybe it was his own breathing. Everything was bright and ecstatic and wonderful.
And then everything went black.
~
With a satisfied smile on his lips Max watched Charles stir in his sleep. His messy hair fell softly into his face and he was almost jealous of the way his chest rose and fell all on its own.
Charles mumbled something that sounded like a mixture of French and Italian and then slowly blinked open his eyes against the ceiling light.
“Welcome back.” Max hummed, a little nervous to say or do anything else. He still could not believe that Charles had offered himself up as remedy for his own issues. He had always considered Charles to be one of his best friends to be honest but somehow he had not expected the other driver to feel the same way. And what other reason could there be for Charles' selfless act?
“Did I fall asleep?”
Max’ non-beating heart hurt at the soft sleepy voice that came from Charles. He had never heard him in any way that was not confident or pissed. “Sort of. You blacked out there for a bit.”
His face was still comfortably pressed into the pillow. “Your eyes are blue again.”
“Well, I was properly fed. A negative blood. Somehow I had thought you were gonna be more of a positive type by your smell.”
Charles groaned against the pillow. “What the fuck, Max?” He moved against the mattress only then realizing that Max had covered him with a blanket.
Max watched the other driver turn around to face him before glancing to the crotch of his jeans and grimacing disgustingly.
“Did I…?”
Max held back an anxious laugh and nodded slowly. “Happens more often than you would think.”
“I don’t think I have come in my pants since I was a kid, man.”
“I’m sorry.” Max wasn’t. He had to admit to himself that hearing the man thrash and moan under his body and touch had riled his bloodlust up even more. However, the Monasque didn’t have to know about that.
“It’s okay.” Charles said as he pushed himself up. “Are you feeling better now?”
Max nodded. He was sure an embarrassing blush would have appeared on his cheeks if that was still possible.
“Okay. Cool.” Charles looked around awkwardly. “I’m gonna clean this up. So…yea…bye.”
Max watched his back disappear though the door frame, his dark brown hair sweaty and matted in the base of his neck. He was not sure what to think. Somehow, he could still taste him on his lips. Somehow, he still craved more.
Well.
That was a problem for a later day.
~
Something that sounded an awful lot like something or someone walking against his couch in the other room woke Charles up from a restless dream. Ever since 'the second inchident' as he liked to call it that had happened at Lando's party his dreams had been filled with strange shapes and colorless blobs that appeared to close in on him the more he tried to wriggle away. He was very close to requesting sleeping pills at this point.
Listening closely he slowly moved his hand towards his phone on the nightstand. What if there was an intruder? Should he call the police? But what if nobody was there and a pillow had fallen off the cushion and he was just being paranoid about creepy monsters lurking in the dark and the police would laugh at him?
Another thud.
Should he go investigate?
Not bothering with putting on a shirt he quietly made his way to his bedroom door, his phone clutched tightly in his hand. What exactly was his plan here? Should he just make some noise to announce himself? Maybe whatever was out there would leave. Or maybe then they would know where to find him to kill him and eat his flesh. Wow, he was in desperate need of those sleeping pills.
Slowly and carefully he pulled the door towards himself, expecting the dark and empty hallway behind it.
What he definitely did not expect was Max, eyes black and cheens covered in veins.
Grasping at this chest Charles tried to take a breath but the shock would not let him. Struggling for air he took a few hurried steps back, his eyes never leaving Max - was it even Max? Or was it the creature that had now fully overtaken his body?
Charles' whole body was shaking as two cold sets of fingers wrapped around his naked arms, pressing him against the rough material of the bedroom wall. He wanted to scream, or to run, to do…literally anything except what he was doing now which was standing and staring in fear.
"Max.", he finally managed to choke out and this time it was the other man that went completely still.
"Max?" he tried again as the tight grip on his biceps began to loosen. Alright, maybe there was a chance he was not going to die after all.
Slowly Charles reached up to touch Max' vein-streaked cheek causing the other driver to blink a few times as if to clear his head. Yet still, Charles saw nothing but darkness and the drive to hunt in his eyes.
There had to be something he could do, right?
With the adrenaline still pumping through him he raised another shaky hand and placed it against the Dutchman's face gripping him tightly to force Max to look at him.
"Max. It's me. Okay? It's me." Max squinted at him, his cold fingers now holding onto Charles' waist. "Just me. I know you don't want to hurt me, Max."
Did he understand? How could Charles make him understand that he was neither his prey nor his enemy?
"Max." Charles leaned in. "It's just me." Should he really? "You don’t want to hurt me." Would he really? "It's me." A little closer. "You know me."
The moment his lips pressed against those of his fellow driver he felt the tension leave Max' body.
"Charles." He hummed against his mouth and then broke their faces apart just to go back in and lean his forehead against his.
Finally, Charles managed to take a full breath and opened his eyes, the usual blue he had seen so many times staring back at him.
"Thank you for not eating me." he laughed exasperated which made Max take a fast step backwards.
"I am so sorry. I don't even know how I got here. I … I'm so sorry! Fuck, I could have killed you!"
"Well luckily you didn’t." Charles ran his fingers through his sweat drenched hair. "I need to sit down. Fuck.”
Max stared at him intently. "I should go."
When he opened his eyes Charles was alone again.
~
“Do you have a minute?” Max was standing in front of Charles who was already in his fireproofs.
It had taken Max a lot of mental strength to walz his dead ass into the redbull area of the circuit to find the other driver. Because honestly: He was massively embarrassed about the other night. When he had come back to his senses Charles' lips had been pressed to his and finally Max managed to snap back into control. Up until that point he had merely been a spectator to the events leading up to his first kiss with Charles. Had it even been a kiss? If yes, he hated himself for not being fully present for it.
He had watched himself compel the doorman in the lobby to get him Charles’ emergency key from the safe. He had felt himself opening the apartment door to stalk through the dark, his mind and all his senses focused on one thing and one thing only: Blood. Specifically Charles’ blood. There was just something about his blood that had Max riled up and it was all he could think about day in night out.
When Charles motioned towards the back corner of the garage with his chin Max followed obediently.
Before they even came to a standstill Max was already rambling. “Charles, I am so so sorry. I don't even know how to apologize or what came over me. I guess when you freely offered me your blood something clicked in my brain like that has never happened to me before and my instincts just told me to hunt. I just want to hunt all the time. Obviously I don’t. Also that doesn't justify almost killing you obviously, I just wanted to explain and I promise I will do anything I can to stop this from happening again. I will chain myself to my bed if I have to and-”
“You can hunt me." Charles suddenly interrupted him mid rant whilst his hands were nervously fidgeting with the zipper of his racing suit.
Max stopped in his tracks, his mouth still half open. "What?"
"We have been hunting each other all our lives, Max. I'm used to it. Just maybe let me know first and don’t just show up in the middle of the night like a freak." He said it so nonchalantly Max was not sure if he was dreaming. Well, Max was sure because ever since he had died he had not been dreaming anymore. Maybe this was a very vivid daydream fantasy that was playing in his mind while he was driving?
"Are you serious?"
Charles nodded. This could not be real.
"I would probably drink from you again."
Another nod. It could not be real because that meant-
"Other things might happen again."
"For god's sake Max.” The Italian came out in Charles as he gestured wildly with his hands. “Yes. To all of those things. I want you to do your vampire shit again, okay? There. I said it. Happy? Now I kind of have to race so.."
Max smiled to himself as he watched the other driver walk away with an agitated and delicious sounding heartbeat. He perhaps was a little too happy about this.
~
Charles was about to hit the gas pedal when a knock on his rental car window startled him. Pressing the button he rolled it down and blinked up towards Max. It had been a long race weekend and all he wanted was to get away from the media and people in general. "What's up?"
Max smirked before leaning down to be on his level. Before Charles could register what the fuck was happening Max' mouth was on his in a lingering kiss and back out the window.
"Hey, Charles?" Slightly tugging on his top lip Max bared his fangs for a brief moment and then smiled, a daring spark in his darkening eyes. "Run."
..
And so what if Charles drove to his hotel like a maniac?
And so what if he left the room door open on purpose?
And so what if this time Max' lips were on his skin before his teeth were?
And so what if he woke up the next morning weak but content, covered in a warm blanket and engulfed by a cold naked body?
And so what if Max was a dead blood-drinking creature now?
Charles could always run.
But it was a lot less fun without a certain someone chasing him.
the end.

I hate this but whatever 🤷‍♀️🥸👹
Summer in paradise that’s what the boys promised you summer in paradise.
You had been openly dating Max and you both had been in a close-door relationship with Charles.
Charles knew that the three of you couldn’t come out right and say you were dating no matter how much you all wanted it
So Charles and Max had the idea of going on a private vacation.
You packed a bag with the bare necessities and off you went with one thought on your mind.
It finally was going to be the three of you
A summer in paradise.
The three of you arrived at a gorgeous villa in a quiet resort on an exotic island.
Max and Charles had put a lot of thought and effort into making this a paradise for you.
“Boys this is beautiful,” you say walking around the villa and taking in the sight
“We’re glad you like it,” Charles says proudly “We wanted to make sure that you had all the comforts you wanted for your holiday” Max adds.
The two of them take your bags from you and lead you to the bedroom where they’ve already unpacked your clothes “We’ve unpacked a few things for you now” Charles smirks before he leads you out onto the terrace.
“Now we can show you the view,” Max says as he walks over to the terrace doors. He opens them and leads you outside.
You step outside and see the spectacular view of a pristine ocean with the sun starting to set. The boys stand next to you as you admire the scenery.
“It’s beautiful,” you say as you take it all in The boys laugh “We knew you’d like it,” Max says as the sun sets below the horizon.
It was finally becoming dark as the boys stood behind you and wrapped their arms around you “We know it’s going to be a magical night as well” Charles says, kissing your neck.
You can feel both of them getting closer as they whisper sweet nothings into your ear You lean into Max as you feel Charles nibbling on your neck
“I hope we don’t scare the neighbors” you laugh between kisses.
“Did we forget to mention that we’re the only ones here besides the staff”
Max says.
“He’s right Cheri” were the only ones here.
“So we could be as loud as we want?” You ask seductively if the boys are standing on either side of you and are both leaning close to you.
“We could be as loud as we like” Charles replies
“We have our private beach too” Max adds “We could even swim naked if we wanted to”
Charles kisses your neck again “We could stay up late and talk and snuggle all night long”
“There’s just one problem with that” Max adds with a grin.
“Which is?” You ask both of the boys now to have their arms wrapped tightly around you.
“Well the problem is that we’re going to want to do a lot more than just talk and snuggle,” Max says with a smirk
You can feel both of the boys getting closer to you Max is rubbing his hands up your back and Charles is rubbing his hands under your top.
“We’re going to want to kiss you and touch you” Max adds as he presses himself against you.
Charles also pushes himself closer to you
“And we’re going to want to do that all night long” Max whispers into your ear as he kisses your neck
Charles follows Max’s lead and kisses your neck as well
The two of them are standing on either side of you and are now both kissing your neck.
“We could stay up as late as we like and make each other feel good, don't you think?” Charles whispers as he continues to kiss you.
“I think we’ll be up all night” you reply as both of them start kissing your neck again
The boys are now both kissing your neck at the same time You’re in heaven.
You wake up in a sea of pillows Your head is lying on Max’s chest and Charles is also snuggled up against you
You can feel both of them smiling as they sense that you’re waking up
“Good morning love,” Max says giving you a kiss
“Morning darling” Charles also says kissing you
You are surrounded by blankets and pillows as both of the boys cuddle you
You’re feeling very warm and comfortable as the boys are both cuddling you They seem to be competing with each other to see who can hold onto you the tightest you’ve never felt more loved
“Good morning boys,” you said
“Morning lovely,” Charles says in a syrupy voice
“Morning my little angel” Max also says “You must’ve slept well”
“It’s hard to sleep badly with two gorgeous boys cuddling me,” You say smiling
Max kisses your forehead and Charles kisses your neck
“You both are spoiling me so much”
“We’re going to spoil you all week long,” Charles says “That’s the whole point of this holiday we wanted to make you happy and show you how much we love you” Max adds
“We have lots of exciting plans for today,” Charles tells you
“We thought we’d go for a swim in the ocean first and then we could have breakfast” Max adds
“And then we have some other surprises for you later on,” Charles says
“And you can spend the whole day in the sun in a bikini” Max chuckles “And maybe the two of us could get our little swimwear too” Charles adds
The two of them are both giving you cheeky smiles
“But you better be careful if you see us in our swimsuits you might not be able to keep your hands off of us” Charles teases
“What if I don’t want to keep my hands to myself?” You replied teasingly:
“Well in that case we certainly won’t stop you,” Max says “We like it when you can’t keep your hands off us too” Charles adds “In fact, we’re counting on it”
“We bet we could make each other lose control very easily if we were in our swimsuits,” Max says giving you a cheeky grin
“I know you’ve never held back once you see our abs” Charles adds playfully
“Or our biceps” Max chuckles
“Or our chest” Charles adds
“I’d love to see you biting your lip when we’re in our swimsuits” Charles concludes with a cheeky grin
“Well we’ll make sure we wear our best swimsuits today just for you,” Max says and Charles also chuckles
“Who knows what kind of trouble we could get up to with you in a tiny bikini” Charles adds
“And with us in just a pair of swimming trunks,” Max finishes
“Let’s go then,” you said seductively
“Oh you don’t need to tell us twice,” Charles says grabbing your hand and getting up
“We’re more than ready to spend the whole day with you” Max adds
The three of you head onto the terrace and you all grab your sunglasses and sunscreen before heading toward the beach
Max and Charles put their arms around you as you walk down to the beach and start spreading the towels out on the sand
You sit down on the towel
The boys lay on either side of you and Max hands you your suncream “Here you go, honey”
“Let me spread it on for you,” Charles says
He takes the suncream and begins rubbing it all over your skin
Charles rubs in the suncream over your back and shoulders and Max rubs it over your legs and arms
“Don’t forget the all-important parts” Charles laughs as he rubs the suncream in over your chest and stomach and you feel his fingers glide over your skin
“We definitely won’t” Max chuckles “We wouldn’t want you to get a burn in such a delicate area” he teases
“We need to make sure that your skin stays soft and smooth” Charles adds
The two boys are spreading the suncream very slowly so it feels like the touch of their fingers is just barely grazing your skin
As they rub the suncream in you feel a tingle run through you
You can’t help but have the feeling that the boys are teasing you on purpose and you feel a little breathless
“We’re going to take good care of your skin,” Charles says “You’re our delicate flower” Max adds
The two boys continue to spread the sunscreen all over your body
You can feel their fingers tracing lines over your skin
“We’re going to make sure that every inch of you stays soft and smooth and delicate,” Charles says kissing your neck
“No matter what happens” Max chuckles
“And when we’re done rubbing in the suncream we have a little surprise for you” Charles adds
Max nods in agreement
“Can you guess what our surprise is?” Charles asks you.
You feel your heartbeat quicken inside you you’ve got no idea what the boys have planned for you but one thing you can be sure of is that it’s going to be something exciting “Maybe you should just wait and see” Max whispers in your ear As he undoes the strings of your bikini top. The feeling of the fingers undoing your bikini top sends shivers through you; it feels so intimate and yet so exciting . As your top comes undone the boys are both watching it eagerly; it's as if they can’t take their eyes off of you.
Your breath catches in your throat as Max undoes the strings of your top
You feel the weight of your breasts being pulled down and your skin tingles all over
Charles is rubbing your chest very gently now and your body is Starting to warm up
“So soft and smooth” Charles whispers in your ear
“Our delicate flower is so delicate and so smooth” Max adds
You can feel your body beginning to heat up as the boys caress your chest.
“Does our baby like this?” Charles whispers kissing you on the cheek
“Maybe we should do even more?” Max says suggestively as he puts both of his hands on your chest. Your body feels completely overwhelmed and your breathing begins to quicken. You can feel your body beginning to tremble with excitement as they press their bodies up against you.
You’t barely believe how good it feels as one of them kisses your neck and the other kisses your chest.
Max is still kissing your chest when Charles moves his lips down to your neck
You feel a wave of heat wash over you as they both start kissing and nibbling on your neck.
Your muscles begin to twitch and spasm as the boys begin to make your whole body pulsate with excitement.
“Are you feeling a little turned on?” Charles asks as his lips still on your neck
“Is our little angel all excited now?” Max laughs
You can barely speak as the two boys are kissing and nibbling on your neck and it feels like you are going to explode.
“Our little angel is so much fun to tease and it feels so good to make her come apart” Charles whispers into your neck
The boys are playing with you now the boys are both kissing your neck and they are taking turns taking you to the edge of climax.
“We could keep teasing our little angel for hours at this rate” Max adds with a smirk
“We could make that whole body tremble for as long as we want” Charles whispers into your ear as he kisses your neck again.
You were so lost in the moment that you didn’t notice when one of the boys snaked his hand down into your bottom feeling just how wet you were.
“Oh Charlie our little angel is so wet” Max slowly pushed his index finger into your wet cunt.
“Is she now?” Charles said confidently also snaking a hand into your bikini bottoms to rub slow agonizing circles on your clit “oh your right Max she soaking” Charles making you whine.
“I’m so…close” you said with your head thrown back.
“Close?” Max asks “You think we’re going to let you off that easily” Charles chuckles “We’re just warming you up now”
“It’s too easy to make you come apart like this” Max adds.
“We can bring you right to that edge and then make you sit on it like this all day” Charles whispers in your ear “Your body trembling and twitching as you just beg us to push you over the edge”
Max also whispers in your ear as he traces lines over your neck “We can keep you like this all week long if we wanted. We can keep teasing you until your body is trembling and your begging for more”
The two of them continue to kiss your neck and their whispers get you closer and closer to the edge but every time you get close they pull away and you have to wait a little longer and the cycle starts all over again.
“Don’t worry though we’ll push you over the edge eventually” Max says “We’re doing all this build up to make it even better” Charles adds.
“Imagine just how good it’s going to feel when we finally push you over the edge” Max whispers seductively “It’s going to be the best feeling you’ve ever had” Charles adds.
The two of them continue kissing and nibbling on your neck as they take turns bringing you to the precipice of an explosive climax just for them to pull back just before it happens. Your body begins to twitch and spasm as the boys take you to the edge again and your body is already starting to shake as you wait for them to finally push you over the edge.
This cycle continues until your body is shaking uncontrollably, your breath is quickening and you can feel the heat rising as the boys continue to tease you and bring you so damn close to what your body needs but they won’t let you have it yet.
“Maxie Charlie please I need to cum” you begged with tears in your eyes.
“What do you say Charlie should we let her cum?” Max asked his fingers moving in and out of you.
“I think our little angel deserves it,” Charles says.
Both the boys stop kissing you
They both laugh and give each other a Look which means they are both about to agree on something
After a few moments of them laughing they both nod their heads in agreement at the same time “Ok your wish is our command” Max says as he goes back to kissing you and Charles does the same.
They both keep kissing you and the pace picks up and your body is beginning to tense up as you hold yourself together and try to hold on until they push you over the edge. After torturing you for a little while longer the boys finally let up and let you cum.
It was going to be a long week you thought to yourself as Max and Charles tied your top back on.

i was revisiting the instagram tributes that other drivers posted for seb and it got me thinking about what they would post for max when he inevitably retires in 2028. i think lando and daniels would be funny, pierre and alexs too. not sure who would be on the grid by then but maybe liam or yuki is his teammate and they would post something too. but what has me in a chokehold is what charles’ post could be like. would he post a picture from the karting days? would he have won a championship by then and post one of the two of them from the fia gala? what would his caption be?
Hi Anon, quick question, are you trying to induce a mental breakdown? 🫠😘
As much as I love to live in my delusion-bubble and transform every measly crumb into a three course meal, I’m gonna be real here for a second, I can’t see their posts being as heartfelt as we want them to be 💔
However, I’m a Lestappie through and through so here are a few of my scenarios/opinions (delusion included)
If Max retires first
Charles’ post — logical edition:
Charles’ post would likely be some shot of them driving, maybe Silverstone ‘19, or Jeddah ‘22 with a boring caption along the lines of:
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Congratulations on a stellar career.
Charles’ post — Lestappen edition:
My heart screams that he’d pick a post-race embrace (hopefully one day we’ll have a proper one):
Tumblr media
Fighting you was some of the best fun I’ve ever had.
The track won’t be the same without you there to push the limits and push me wide.
Enjoy this next chapter, you’ve earned the rest.
If Charles retires first
Max’s post — logical edition:
Max is a big softy, okay. HE would be the one to post them in their karting years, because he is the first to remind everyone they grew up racing each other (to combat the nostalgia of course he’d pick a photo from when he won his CIK-FIA World KZ Championship).
Tumblr media
Together from the start until the end.
Well done on all your achievements over the years, mate 👍🏻
Max’s post — Lestappen edition:
It has to be the Austria ‘22 Podium, could it be anything else? Even with his rudimentary (and sometimes obliviously innocent) understanding of social media, in my mind even Max is aware how iconic this moment was.
Tumblr media
It pays to never give up on a dream.
Congrats on winning your maiden championship and ending your career on a high. You deserve it.
I hate to admit a piece of me might miss seeing #16 in my mirrors, but thanks for not sticking around to wear my #1.
- Your biggest fan
If anyone else has any takes on this, or wants to share some thoughts, I’m all ears ❤️
📸 Credit to all the photographers, without them we’d wither away.

i have a request for a lestappen fic inspired by delicate by ts, it’s been in my head for a while and i think you could do it justice
I’m so sorry it took me so long to answer this!!! I’m practicing my actual fic writing so i’m gonna use that on this i hope you don’t mind. i know it’s just a blurb but i’m really insecure about it 😭
“Delicate” as in charles is trying to live up to the expectations set for him by the world and max is just there for him. charles keeps pushing him away and max doesn’t understand why. all he wants is to show him that he loves him and charles is refusing him. max is absolutely infecting charles with adoration… and also jealousy? they are the same age. why can’t charles be like max. why can’t charles do what he set out to do and why does he have to love a man who can. slowly it becomes mental anguish for the ferrari driver. the same for max. he starts imagining that they are dating, pretending charles belongs to him. max finds himself becoming a little too protective during those press conferences. he starts reading into things. lays awake at night after a quick fuck (after which charles basically banished him from his hotel room) and stares at the ceiling wondering if charles is dreaming of him, like he is charles . one day, after a particularly rough quali, where all max wants to do is hold his boy, in a drivers room, it all comes to a head. “Is it too soon to do this yet?” max spits at charles. “I know- I know that this is delicate.” charles doesn’t know what to say. if he spills it all out , everything he thinks, there is every chance in the world that max will walk out that door. and to charles it’s better if it’s his choice, not max’s.
“please, just fucking leave.”
