A Harry Potter AU | Max Verstappen x Charles Leclerc | Enemies to Lovers | Slytherin x Gryffindor
Charles Leclerc has everything figured out: perfect grades, a polished prefect badge, and a future that shines brighter than a freshly polished broomstick. The last thing he needs is Max Verstappen - the infuriatingly charming Slytherin bad boy with a smirk for every rule he breaks and a nickname for everyone he annoys.
Especially sweetheart.
Which, apparently, is now Charles.
Forced to partner up in Potions and constantly thrown together by fate (or a sadistic Headmaster), Charles finds himself tangled in a rivalry he never asked for - one filled with late-night detentions, stolen glances, and an escalating war of pet names that feels dangerously like flirting.
He's everything Charles shouldn't want.
So why does it feel like Max is the only one who really sees him?
