    Summary

    Max just needs to make it one more week. One more week and the championship will be over, for better or for worse, and he can finally lie down and rest his weary body. Close his eyes and block out the world tilting around him, swirling, violent.

    Max just needs to make it one more week. One more hour. One more breath, then another, then another. In for four, hold for four, out.

    Max just needs to make it a little bit farther. He can do it. He can.

    ---

    Max suffers in Jeddah.

    Summary

    Sweet Child O’ Mine by Guns N’ Roses plays when the stranger does step in, maybe a little after 7:30. They've only been officially open for a few moments, so he doesn’t hear the bell jingle, fully immersed with singing along at a low volume.

    “Am I interrupting something?”

    Sebastian does not shriek, nor does he screech or scream or whatever you could describe the noise that escaped him. He turns around frantically from where he was setting out pastries, scrambling for his phone to turn the volume down.

    “Oh mein Gott.” He breathes, pressing his lips into a thin line. “How’d you get in here so quietly?”

    or
    Sebastian might have a small crush on a customer. Maybe he’s trying too hard, opening early, bringing back retired items on the menu. He doesn’t mean to kidnap a kid with said crush in the process.

    (There’s no way Sebastian could overlook bruises upon bruises. The real problem is trying to convince Max that he doesn’t have to bear those on his own.)

    Summary

    “Oh my god, he’s going to take out Verstappen.”
    ---
    "Let me make this clear, Sonny,” Leclerc spat his name mockingly, voice dropping lower, his accent becoming thicker, “you’re only on this grid because your friend is an idiot with too much money. You don’t have the skill to be one of us, and so you’ve turned to reckless idiocy as your only strategy. I don’t care what you do in last place, because it’s where you belong and you’re away from everyone else, but if you even think about going after Max again?”
    Leclerc leaned closer, his green eyes blazing as his voice dropped to a cold whisper. “I’m going to make you regret ever coming back here. You think the media hates you now? You think it’s bad now?” He laughed cruelly. “You won’t be able to leave the damn bathroom without being attacked. Your name will be dragged so thoroughly through the mud that no racing team will accept you. You’ll never race again, professionally or recreationally. Anywhere.”

    Or:

    Sonny Hayes thought he had figured out everything in F1, including Max Verstappen. He had not figured out Charles Leclerc, Scuderia Ferrari racing driver.

    He learns that the hard way.

    Summary

    It is a little-known fact that Max is an omega.

    It is also a little-known fact that Max is actually very fashionable.

    It’s an even lesser-known fact that he likes to look pretty.
