In the ruthless world of Formula 1, Omega Charles Leclerc has learned to keep his head down and his heart guarded. Branded weak by his peers and abandoned by the ones who were supposed to protect him, Charles survives on grit, silence, and sheer speed. But scars don't fade just because the lights go green. When Alpha Max Verstappen enters his orbit-unapologetic, intense, and infuriatingly persistent-Charles finds himself torn between the fear of falling again and the flicker of something he thought he'd lost: hope. And as two former champions, Sebastian Vettel and Kimi Räikkönen, and one very bubbly Daniel Ricciardo, step out of retirement to protect the broken-hearted Monegasque, the paddock becomes more than just a racetrack. It becomes home. It becomes war. It becomes a chance at something more. "Because some alphas don't want to own you- They just want to help you fly".

Hidden in Plain Sight LESTAPPEN | friends to lovers | dark romance | hurt/comfort | explicit Everyone always said Charles and Max were too close to be "just best friends." They laughed it off. Years of shared rides home, inside jokes, drunken crashes on each other's couches; of course they were close. That was normal. That was safe. Until the night Charles's world falls apart. One cheated-on Valentine's Day, one too many drinks, and one quiet bedroom later, the line they never dared cross finally snaps. Grief tastes like beer and salt. Comfort tastes like teeth on skin. And the boy who was always supposed to just "be there" for Charles suddenly isn't gentle anymore; he's possessive, overwhelming, ravenous, whispering I've got you like a threat and a vow at the same time. Because some feelings don't hide. They wait. A raw, messy, bite-marked story about the moment two best friends stop pretending they were ever just friends; and how love can look a lot like ruin before it looks like healing.

Two boys destined to be the rivalry of the future but what happens when they fall in love? The story of how to young boys came to meet, and eventually fall in love. But ofcourse it can't always be smooth sailing.

This is the story of what would've, could've, should've been. In another universe. The story of two boys linked by something they simply can't ignore anymore.

But one reckless, drunk night at the Monaco GP after party changed everything. Their messy encounter in a bathroom stall was supposed to be a mistake-something they could both forget and move past.
