Nadia has dedicated her life to swimming. She has one goal-to stand on the top of the podium again and again at the world's most prestigious competitions. When she's not swimming, she's sleeping, eating or immersing herself in the high-speed world of Formula 1. 

As the World Championship in Bahrain approaches, Nadia's world takes an unexpected turn. A chance meeting with someone at the event sparks a connection that could lead her to her long-time role models. But there's one in particular whose presence lingers in her thoughts, someone who may just become more than just a passing figure in her life.

As she navigates the pressure of her swimming career and the allure of a new, exciting world, Nadia finds herself caught between her dedication to the pool and a growing attraction she can't seem to escape. Could this be the start of something much more than a fleeting connection?

Note:
This story is a LN ff, but it's not focused in the Formula 1 world completely, as the main character is a swimmer, so a lot of the time we get to see her world as well.
 Also, potentially triggering themes include body shaming/disordered eating habits; sh scars; sexual abuse.

After I'm done, I will go back and edit any mistakes/plot holes, etc. Please bear with me!!

CRAWLING BACK TO YOU - Charles Leclerc [ff] by hiddenwritingcorner
71 parts Complete Mature
"You're dead to me, Charles," she gasped. "You promised, Mar!" he yelled after her. She came to a halt. Without a second glance, she replied, "And I've kept mine for way too long." -------- Margot has loved Charles since they were kids hitting the karting tracks and dreaming of futures bigger than their small heads could fathom. But when Charles became a driver in Formula 1, soaring through the ranks while people whispered his name in awe, the boy who once held her hand and promised forever disappeared into a world of speed, fame, and shallow affections-leaving Margot and her heart behind. To him, she is a memory of the past he can remember or discard at will. To her, he's the ache she can't forget and the betrayal she can't forgive. But when a single drunk dial and an everlasting heartbreak bring their lives crashing back together, Margot must decide whether the boy she loved still lives inside the man who broke her, and if her love is worth rebuilding from the shards he left behind. ❗content warning: strong language, mature scenes, death, panic attacks [FINISHED] ⚠️ This is a work of fiction!

29 parts Ongoing Mature
Struck with the reality of how fast and fleeting life was, Charles had come to value cherish and love three things in his short time on Earth. 1. FAMILY ---- loosing his Godfather Jules Bianchi and his father whilst still very young taught him to value and cherish every moment be it joyful or disappointing. You never know when it would be the last time. 2. VALUE OF FRIENDSHIPS -------- Life as an Formula 1 driver is not an easy one, no one in the world could and would understand the life better than the 20 drivers on the grid. Cherish every laughter, fail, every podium, celebrate every crash that doesn't end up in death. Rivalries are fleeting but friendships can and would they last a lifetime. This does not mean he won't fight for a WDC should he be able to. This maturity came later on. He is still a work in progress 3. LOVE---- He loves love, wants love and has found love in his current relationship. OR HAS HE?
