Charles and Max are both worried about what will happen after the end of the 2023 season. With three months to do nothing- to just sit and wait to see each other again, in opposite sides of the same city. But it seems like they can't avoid each other no matter if there's a race or not...

This is a slow burn, angst filled and not completely "IRL" compliant fic. Some things like race results, names and places aren't changed- but Max and Charles are both single, both live in the same city and are falling for each other at an alarming rate. Their names symbolizes the POV you're in, even if everything is written in third person!

There will be NSFW in this fic- but it'll be mentioned in the beginning of the chapter if you want to avoid it!

❝They call him the Dutch Lion.❞ ❝Yeah? To be honest, I think he's more like Scar from The Lion King, but whatever.❞ In the high-pressure world of Formula 1, Red Bull Racing is crumbling. Half the team has quit, morale is at an all-time low, and Max Verstappen-the reigning champion-is battling not just a losing season but a mountain of frustration, anger, and self-hatred. Known for his icy demeanor and explosive temper, Max feels more isolated than ever, unwilling to accept the changes around him. The last thing he wants is a new Personal Assistant. Enter Emilia "Emmy" Jones, a vibrant redhead who seems to radiate sunshine wherever she goes. She's everything Max despises in this moment of chaos-optimistic, talkative, and insufferably cheerful. To Max, she's a storm he didn't see coming, and no amount of biting sarcasm or coldness can drive her away. Emmy is determined to do her job, even if it means braving the tempest that is Max Verstappen. What Max doesn't realize is that Emmy isn't just some cheerful distraction. Beneath her bright smiles and playful energy, she's hiding her own storm. She's not the unshakable beam of positivity he assumes-she's a force of nature battling scars of her own. And while Max can't stand her constant happiness at first, it doesn't take long for him to see that Emmy isn't just sunshine. She's a hurricane-wild, fierce, and unpredictable. And she might just be what Red Bull, and Max, need to survive. Because sometimes, it's the storms that reshape everything.

Heading into the 2024 season, Max doesn't know if he can keep his feelings locked inside for much longer. Canonly follows the entire 2024 F1 season, with chapters posted after every race.
