    Who cares if the circumstances are odd and strange things keep happening, at least the boss is hot.

    —or—
    Mafia Restaurant fic where Max gets a new job, sometimes shit goes down and Charles isn’t particularly happy about it.

    Summary

    “What is wrong with you?” Seb accuses. “What are you looking at?”

    Lewis flips the invitation around, holding it up to the screen so Seb can see it through FaceTime.

    “Ah,” Seb says. “Yes, mine arrived yesterday. They’re eager, aren’t they?”

    Lewis purses his lips, then pulls the invite away so he can read over it again.

    Charles Leclerc

    Invite you to celebrate their wedding

    17.08.24

     

    “Do you think about getting married?” Seb asks.

    Lewis can’t help his scoff. “Seb.”

    “What?” Seb asks innocently. “You are 38 now, surely it is time to settle down.”

    “And get some bees?” Lewis asks wryly, flipping the invitation over so it’s face down.

    Seb shrugs. “There are worse things.”

    Lewis struggles to swallow down the lump that’s suddenly formed in his throat. His shoulder aches, a phantom pain that his doctor says is more psychosomatic than ongoing complications.

    “Yeah,” he agrees quietly. “I guess there are.”

    Summary

    Oscar was cool, calm and collected. Ok maybe not cool since it was currently 27 degrees out and he had not stopped sweating since they arrived in Saudi Arabia, but he was calm and collected, for the most part. And also in love with his teammate, which does not help with the calm part of this equation. But he was burning. He stood on the podium, sweating through his race suit, a restlessness in his limbs causing him to twitch. Being from such a magical family, Oscar should have expected this. Even then, he was still doubtful anything was happening.

    Or

    The grid has magic, Oscar grows wings, falls in love with his teammate, and wins Miami. Not necessarily in that order

    Summary

    “If you were stuck in a timeloop, and you knew you had to stop something from happening, what would you do?”

    “What 10-questions-to-ask-your-teammate-to-get-to-know-them site did you get that one from?” Lewis laughs, as he moves to pull the balaclava over his head. They have 5 minutes until they have to be ready in the car and admittedly, this moment might not be the best time to ask this kind of question.

    “No, I mean it,” Charles insists, lifting his helmet from the stand, but holding it awkwardly in his hands, maintaining eye contact. “If you were stuck, what would you do?”

    Lewis places his hand on his shoulder lightly, squeezing once. “We can talk about this after the race, yes?”

    There won’t be an after the race, Charles thinks bitterly, but he nods his head anyway. “Yeah,” he agrees, “after the race, sure.”

    --

    or: max crashes, charles deals with it more or less well, and the universe decides to meddle by having charles relive the same day over and over again
