Series Masterlist
Feel free to buy me a coffee ââ
She'd never expected to be pregnant on her wedding day. It was nobody's dream, to be round and swollen while stuffed into a pretty white dress that you just know would look so much better if you weren't pregnant, on your feet all day, unable to partake in any of the drinking.
Her bachelorette party wasn't all that. But she didn't want it to be. The only people she would have invited were the other wags, girls she didn't know all that well. No, her bachelorette party was her and Olivia getting their hair and nails done.
They ended the day getting dinner, just the two of them. They sat there, sharing a too big pizza while Olivia went over her details plans of the wedding.
It was the best bachelorette party ever.
Daniel had two bachelor parties. One that was organised by Max and Lando to be the wildest night of his life, with almost all of the grid accompanying them. And one where he could invite Milo.
The party with Milo was mini golf. Carlos was happy to carry Milo around on his shoulders, teach him all that he knew. The boys had all agreed to let Milo win, but he didn't have to know that. After the golf they had dinner and drinks.
One thing about Milo was he couldn't keep his mouth shut about the baby. Maybe Daniel should have reminded him that Baby Ricciardo was a secret, but he didn't expect Milo to just blurt it out, either.
But none of the drivers were surprised. They couldn't be surprised about baby Ricciardo, not when the couple hadn't exactly been good at hiding it. Daniel's hand on her stomach, the little list of baby names they'd all seen on his phone.
The party without Milo, when Milo was at home with Olivia and his momma, it really was a party. Loud music, drinks, dancing, it had everything. But, the moment Daniel got more than three drinks in his system, he was talking about her.
Arm over Max's shoulder as he slurred out his name and how much he loved her. "I want to have another girl," he said to Max, but it was barely audible. "A little girl that looks just like her."
When she had her first dress fitting, there wasn't a bump. Or, at least, the bump did little to change her frame. Her dream dress fit like a glove and Daniel's mother was crying.
It was naĂŻve to think that the dress would still fit by the time the wedding rolled around. Her bump had gotten exponentially bigger, to the point where she couldn't hit it anymore. Now that the drivers knew, it was only time that the rest of the world knew.
They didn't announce it in any way. No, Daniel's Instagram usually had a picture of her in his photo dumps and this was no exception. Just, this time, her bump was visible in the picture.
If the world of F1 was losing its collective shit, neither of them noticed. The Ricciardo family was wrapped up in their own little bubble, just the way they liked it.
A week before the wedding, her dream dress wasn't fitting. Why the fuck wasn't it fitting? Well, she knew why. It was stupid to think anything would fit over her bump.
"I hate this baby," she said through tears as she rubbed her bump. No, she didn't hate baby Ricciardo, not in the slightest. Actually, she loved baby Ricciardo more than anything. But still, she couldn't help but wish she wasn't pregnant.
The dress she wore on her wedding day wasn't her dream dress. She couldn't wear those cute white heels she wanted to wear, couldn't even see her feet.
As she stared at herself in the mirror, just an hour away from being walked down the aisle, an hour away from marrying the love of her life, she was ready to cry. She held it back, though, couldn't afford to ruin her makeup. "What're we gonna do with you?" She whispered as she cradled her bump.
"Momma?"
She looked at Milo in the mirror before she turned towards him. "C'mere, baby," she said and held her hands out towards him. Fuck, how was he almost seven?
As her son wrapped his arms around her, she wanted time to stop. Just stop, let her live in this moment forever. He was growing up so damn fast, he was going to be a big brother soon. "You look beautiful, momma," he said.
This time, she couldn't help the tears. Stupid pregnancy hormones. "Thank you, Miley," she said through a shaky breath as she stood up and grabbed a tissue. Gently she dabbed at her eyes, trying to save her makeup.
She smoothed her dress over her bump and took Milo's hand. "Let's go become Ricciardos."
Daniel had never been this nervous before. Not in his first race back after McLaren had let him go. He was sweating in his suit as Max stood with him. All of their guests were seated, but the most important people were missing.
The door opened and Olivia and one of her friends, one that had been over a few times, walked in. They tossed the petals out of the little white basket as she walked in behind her.
Daniel knew her relationship with her family was... strenuous, at best. That was why they weren't at the wedding. With her father not there to walk her down the aisle, Milo held her hand.
Daniel's breath caught in his throat. He knew she wasn't in her dream dress, not the dress that matched Olivia's, but she still looked amazing. Holy fuck, it was enough to bring tears to her eyes. But that wasn't what actually did it.
Milo was the one walking her down the aisle. Milo in his little suit that near matched Daniels. He stood tall and proud, head held high as he walked his mother towards his step father.Â
The kids sat together through the ceremony. Milo couldnât stop himself from fiddling with the little pieces of petals as his mother got married. They were incredibly well behaved throughout, with Oliviaâs grandparents, and Miloâs grandparents now, too, keeping them company.Â
This close, Daniel could see the faults in her makeup. He didnât care about the faults, she looked gorgeous with or without it. But still, Daniel could see the smudges under her eyes as he slipped the ring onto her finger.Â
Mrs Ricciardo. She was Mrs Ricciardo now.Â
Daniel didnât say anything about the evidence of her tears as he kissed her. And, once he had his mouth on her, he never wanted to stop kissing her. He couldnât dip her, like he wanted to, but his hand cradled her bump, cradled baby Ricciardo. His baby. She was his wife and she was carrying his baby.Â
This was the best day of his life.Â
Their family and friends were cheering as he walked her out of the church and into the car. Even then, even in the car, he couldnât keep his lips on her. But he had to make sure she was okay, that took precedent. Even knowing that, Daniel couldnât pull his lips away from her own. So the words were mumbled against her lips. âWere you crying?â
He tried to sound concerned, by her lips against his had his voice coming out as more of a desperate whine.Â
But, as soon as he said it, she pulled away. âIâm fine, Danny,â she said and went to rub at her eyes, rub away the evidence of her tears.
Daniel caught her wrists. âYou look beautiful,â he whispered and kissed her again. âMy wife looks beautiful.â
The way she looked up at him, fuck, he could have kept her in that car forever. âSay it again.â
âMy wife.â
When they arrived at the reception venue, their friends and family were there, waiting. As soon as they climbed out of the car, Milo and Olivia were pulling away from their grandparents, racing towards them. Daniel couldnât help but pick Olivia up and place her on his hip as Milo held his mothers leg.
âAre we a family now?â Olivia asked, her voice coming out almost like a demand.Â
But nobody could blame her. Sheâd been waiting for this moment for a year and a half.Â
Daniel rolled his eyes, but he was grinning. âWe always were a family, Badger.â
There was no part of her wedding that the new Mrs Ricciardo didnât enjoy. She wasnât in her dream dress, but, now she had that ring on her finger, now she was married to the love of her life, she didnât much care.Â
She danced, but she didnât dance the night away, like she had dreamed. She couldnât help but be emotional as she sat with Danielâs parents, her mother and father in law, watching the guests at her wedding. They were dancing more than she was, at her own wedding.Â
Holding her bump, speaking softly to baby Ricciardo, she watched as her husband and her children danced. Danielâs grin was so wide as the three of them were the centre of attention on the dance floor. That was the man she loved. That was the man she married.Â
âYour daddy, your siblings and I canât wait to meet you,â she whispered to baby Ricciardo as her mother and father in law watched on, hearts melting. âYouâve got the best daddy going.â
And, as Daniel put Olivia down after spinning her around, he looked over to his wife. She smiled at him, a smile heâd never forget. As Olivia went to dance with Lando and Max took Milo to get something to drink, Daniel walked over to her.Â
âHi, baby,â he said as his hand met her bump. And then he looked up at his wife, meeting her eyes. âHi, Mrs Ricciardo.â
âHi, Mr Ricciardo.â
He kissed her, and she never wanted to let him go.

Summary: After Nyxâs birth, Feyre is seeking to ease her way back into her duties as High Lady and balance her time at the gallery with being a new mother. To ease her mind, she and Rhys have decided to hire a new nanny, who turns out to be far more than either of them had bargained for.
When I wake again, itâs with a steady roaring in my ears and a mind-numbing ache just behind my eyes.
I want to cry, but my stomach immediately rebels against the idea with a wave of nausea so severe I have to clench my teeth against it. I roll onto my side, curling as tightly as I can into a ball to wait for it to pass. A soft, cool hand presses against my forehead, the side of my face, and some of the nausea eases a little, just enough for me to ease my eyes open.
All I can see is the clear, cool blue of Feyreâs eyes. I drag my next breath in through my teeth in an attempt to stifle the ragged sob that tears itself from my throat anyway. The tears leaking down my cheeks are too hot and pitiful in a way that might make me resent them, if only I werenât so exhausted. I feel like I took a tumble down the side of a mountain, from the way every muscle in my body burns.
âOh, my dove,â she whispers, running her thumb over my cheek the way she might soothe Nyx after a bad night. âYouâll feel better soon.â
âHurts,â I whimper, closing my burning eyes once more. Two brief, timid knocks at the bedroom door draw a deep, guttural snarl from my mate Iâve not heard before, and I reach for that unclaimed mating bond on instinct. It feels so thin and fragile, like it might rip if I tug too hard, but I donât have the time to be gentle with it. I feel her cool, quick hands slipping beneath me, lifting my body like I weigh no more than the bird thatâs become my namesake. I sag against her, shuddering with relief at the feeling of her skin on mine.
The contact doesnât eliminate the pain, but it does help alleviate the ache in my chest. I bury my nose in her neck and inhale her lilac and pear scent, letting it sink in like a balm. She wasnât here when I woke the first time, neither was Rhys, but I hadnât truly been able to think of them then, to let myself worry. Not when the instinct to check on the babe was driving me so much harder. But now?
âWhereâs Rhys?â I croak, trying to lift my head. It feels like thereâs fire coursing through my veins instead of blood, and everything is so heavy. It hurts to move, to breathe.
âHeâll be home soon, love.â
âAnd youâre okay?â
âIâm fine, everyone else is fine.â There are two more knocks at the door, louder this time before the door swings open, and a sudden burst of raw power shakes the foundation of the house on the heels of Feyreâs furious snarl. The scent of her raw magic is overwhelming, a tempest of icy shadows and seawater and starlight that sets jagged claws into something deep within my mind and pulls, as if to rip it from me. I scream, and I donât know if itâs from the shock of it or the pain that rolls through my mind like a protective barrier, but it comes with an agony I have not known before.
The roar in my ears swells, its pitch sharpening as my vision bleeds to white, and the last thing I feel is the lip of a cold, glass bottle being shoved between my lips before everything is blissfully blank once more.
Iâm lost in that wine-dark sea again, but this time there is no starlight to keep me company. There is only the cold and the darkness threatening to devour me. I twist between the waves, looking everywhere for a source of light, a thread to follow home but thereâs nothing. Nothing. I donât know how Iâm supposed to exist in this endless expanse of nothing.
Perhaps this is simply a battle Iâm not meant to win.
I allow the current to take me, to pull me down deeper until I come to rest on something soft that folds up around me like a cocoon. Whispers of safe flow around me in a voice so similar to my motherâs that I almost look around for her. Safe, safe, safe. Sheâd always been trying to protect me, hadnât she? When I was little, sheâd warn me not to run too far or climb too high. In most of my memories, sheâs always hovering on the periphery, watching with pursed lips and shaking hands.
I hadnât understood her fear then, not even when I began work as a nanny did I understand it. Now I think I might.
âYou always do once you have babes of your own,â my motherâs voice says, echoing through the darkness around me like a sirenâs call. âThey show you how vulnerable you are, how fragile life can be. Itâs easy to know fear once you are a mother.â
âI am not a mother,â I reply, fighting the rising tide of bitterness I have always refused to allow to overtake me. Images of Nyx come to me in waves, memories of his gummy smile and vibrant twilight blue eyes, but I bat them away with a lump in my throat. Itâs true, I donât believe I would love him more if Iâd given birth to him, but Iâm not his mother. âI never will be.â
âHow definitive that word is,â the voice muses. âNever. It leaves no room for chance or miracles, thereâs no possibility in the face of never. Isnât that lonely, love?â
âLonely?â The laugh breaks from me before I can swallow it: a cold, hollow thing, a reflection of a wound Iâve nursed in silence for many years. âI am alone, I have been alone for so long that I donât know how to be anything else. I found my mates, my mates, most High Fae donât ever dream of meeting their own and I have two that I donât know how to love.â
âYou know how to love, little fox. Your heart has always been much too large to be contained, you spill a little of it everywhere you go-â
âThat may have been true once,â I acknowledge, curling in on myself, âthen my family burned around me, and someone told me to run so I did. I ran as fast and as far as I could get, and I swore Iâd never lose anyone else. And I havenât. You canât lose people you donât love, and I havenât truly loved anyone until-â
Until now. The darkness bearing my motherâs voice is mercifully silent, leaving me there in the dark and the cold to think and to grieve. I had a family once, I had a father and brothers- no, that had been a lie, hadnât it? Iâd had a mother, though, a mother who had sacrificed everything she had to hide me. If I think about her long enough, I can remember the sense of illness and exhaustion that clung to her like so much sludge, weighing her down in spite of her spirit and her work ethic. It had chased her to her grave, hadnât it? Iâd never questioned the sickness as a child, sheâd been a healer, I thoughtâŚbut the image of her staring at me from Erisâs side burns so clearly before me, of him feeding me the potion that would bind my magic for centuries. How much of her own magic that must have taken, to create a spell- no, a curse that would render me nearly useless for the entirety of my life.
Powerless, docile, a threat to no one.
Who could I possibly have been such a threat to that I needed to be hidden away? With only a trickle of healing magicâŚa trickle I have not touched in a very long time. Magic poisoning had been one of the first lessons we learned as novice healers; our magic is as intrinsic to us as the blood flowing through our veins, we are taught never to neglect it for a reason. Is thisâŚis this my fault, did I do this? I hold up my hand and try to summon it, to draw even the slightest bead of magic, but all that rushes forward is a burning ache that is quickly smothered by the cold, merciful darkness.
A darkness so unlike the one Iâve been stranded in, one that glimmers with hints of starlight. It floods into the space, too expansive to be contained. Whatever had wrapped itself around me flakes away on a cool, pine-kissed breeze, and the stars burst to life in its absence.
âThere you are.â This voice is dark and rich, so lovely I want to weep, and itâs close. âIâve been looking everywhere for you.â
âRhys?â I ask, rising onto my knees as I search for him in the starlight. âAre you here? I canât see you.â
Please donât let this be all there is of him, please donât let this be a cruel trick of my memory, please IâŚI donât want to be left alone anymore. Iâm tired of the endless darkness and searching. I want to live, I want to be happy, IâŚI donât want to die here, cold and alone. I want to live.
âIâm right here,â the voice whispers in my ear, and it comes with strong arms that pull me flush against a warm, familiar body until Iâm surrounded by the scents of citrus and lilac and something like an orchard in the rain. âYouâre not alone, darling, weâd never leave you alone. Weâre right here, youâre safe.â
âAm I? I feel so sick, Rhys, I donât understand whatâs happening to me.â
âWeâre figuring it out, dove, I promise. Mor retrieved a healer from Dawn, one of Thesanâs best, and she's working with Madja on a cure. None of us have seen magic poisoning that behaves like this before, itâs hard to treat.â
âWhat do you mean?â
âTypically, you would want to drain the excess magic off in some way, your body should want to release it. But with yours, thereâs a sort of substance coating it, like an oil. Every time thereâs an attempt to drain off your magic, it surges forward and creates a barrier-â
âJust as my mother intended,â I muse, running my fingertips along the arm wrapped around my shoulders. Instead of soft skin, Iâm surprised to feel smooth scales and downy feathers, something more akin to a beast than the male Iâve been sharing a bed with. But heâs warm and he smells the same, so I suppose the presentation doesnât matter much.
âWhat do you mean?â He asks slowly, carefully, like perhaps he might be afraid of where this answer will lead us. Maybe I should be as well. âDove?â
I deliberate for a moment, weighing the words carefully in my mind, then the back of a cold talon trails down the side of my face and thatâs all it takes for me to tell him everything. From falling stars to the dark cabin hidden away in the forests of Autumn, it sounds like little more than a fever dream, but I know what I saw; I even told him about the ball of light that led me there and the vial I drank from that tasted like the heart of a storm. Rhys listens to my story in complete silence, and once itâs done we watch the stars dance around us the way we had that night in the tub. I wish we could do this every night, and when I say as much he simply holds me tighter.
âWe can,â he says quietly. âWe can, every night, once we get out of here-â
âCanât we stay?â I ask, resting my heavy head against his arm. âItâs so peaceful here.â
âNo, darling, we canât. No one else can get here, not even Feyre. This place is very deep within your mind, itâs not safe for you to have other people here.â
âBut youâre here.â
âIâve been doing this for a long time, you know. Almost as long as Iâve been alive. The mind has a myriad of ways it can present: some are fortresses, others are more akin to open fields with rabbit warrens to hide their secrets. None of them are impossible to navigate if you know what to look for and where to apply pressure. Youâve been swimming through an ocean into dark chasms designed to swallow you up, little dove, but thatâs not what your mind chose to show me.â
âWhat does it look like to you?â
âOur home, filled with books and portraits of your memories. Everywhere I looked had little traces of you: the faintest whiff of your scent like you just left the room, or a blanket on the couch that was still warm. All good signs that you were still there, if I could figure out where to look. But the further I walked, the colder it got, and it felt like I was walking into rooms you hadnât touched in years. There were cobwebs and dust covering the books, and all of the portraits were so faded I could barely make sense of them. I thought to go back and start at the beginning, then I heard your voice on the other side of a door I hadnât noticed, tucked away behind some stairs. Did you have a door like that growing up?â
âI donât remember,â I croak. My voice is harder to summon than it had been before. âThereâs a lot of my life I donât remember, Rhys, and I donât even know if forgetting is a choice I made anymore.â
The stars are beginning to wink out one by one, taking whatever warmth they brought with them as they go. It feels like a warning.
âI donât know, love, we can try to find out. You have to come with me, though. We need to leave.â
âIâm too tired. Just go, Iâll come later-â
âIf you stay here, you will die. This place is the deepest part of your mind, but it isnât safe for you to stay for long, and it sounds like youâve spent quite a bit of time here already.â His words are gentle, but the urgency in them feels like a shock to something vital within me, and I lift my head from his arm. It feels too heavy to hold up, but I fight the urge to lay it back down. âLet me take you back with me, love, let me take you home. Feyre and Nyx are there, they miss you. Donât you want to see them?â
âI do,â I mumble, and he lifts me into his arms like itâs as easy as breathing. Perhaps for him it is, I donât know, but when he carries me through the door heâd described, I feel the weight of my body crashing into me again. The pain is absolutely unbearable. I donât know when I begin screaming, but it tells me that Iâm still alive. Another bottle is poised at my lips and I suck the contents down willingly, hoping it will put an end to the fire coursing through my veins.
The burning goes on and on until the potion works through my bloodstream, cooling everything it touches like a minty kiss. The moment my tight, aching muscles relax and I can take a true breath, I become aware of the cool rag against my brow, delicately dabbing away the sweat with the care one might give a precious crystal vase. Lilac and pear carried on a night breeze, those are the scents that flood my senses. My mates, both of them, are here with me. Iâm not alone.
You will not be alone, sweetheart. Feyreâs voice wraps around my mind like a blanket of thin silk, and I hum, gingerly shifting onto my side, making sure Iâm comfortably settled before I allow my eyes to flutter open. Thereâs no light beyond the open windows, another day gone. How many days have I missed? The sheets beneath me are cool and clean, and the linen nightgown is new. The air filtering into the room is cold and refreshing, tinged with the first brush of winterâs chill. âHi, baby.â
âHi,â I mumble, focusing first on the pale, tattooed hand smoothing my hair back.
âHow are you feeling?â
âMmhh,â I groan, shaking my head. âNotâŚnot great, but better.â
âBetter is good,â Feyre says weakly and I follow the line of her arm to gaze up at her lovely, angular face. Her pursed lips are pale and bitten, the slope of her shoulders seem to bear the weight of the world on them. I wriggle and flail until she realizes what Iâm doing and helps me to sit up, reclined against a pile of pillows. Even this small shift feels like it was a great effort, but I think Iâve slept enough. I run my hand along Feyreâs arm until it rests on the curve of her neck. I can feel her pulse beneath my fingers, strong and steady.
âWhat did the healer say?â
âDonât worry about it now.â Her words are gentle, intended to ease my anxiety, but I shake my head slowly. I need to know. âWe sent word to Helion, heâs coming in a few days to see if he can help Rhys break the spell binding your magic, from thereâŚfrom there, we can see how much of the internal damage is permanent. For now, you will rest and drink the potions the healers bring.â
âI donât think itâs going to work,â I murmur as my hand falls back to my lap. âYou may want to reach out to Eris, he was there when it happened.â
âEris?â she asks slowly, her nose wrinkling as she turns the information over in her mind. âI didnât think he was capable of magic like that.â
âHeâs not, my mother was. I donât know the nature of their relationship, not really, but I sawâŚI donât know what I saw. Iâd like the opportunity to ask him about it, though. He should have some of the answers weâll need and, more than that, there are things I think IâŚI think I need to know.â What their relationship was, what they saw in me as a newborn that was so dangerous it needed to be hidden so thoroughly, who myâŚwho my father truly is. I think of the male who raised me, the brothers who had not truly been my brothers, and my heart aches at the elaborate lie theyâd all agreed to tell.
I need to know why.
âWill you tell me about it when youâre ready?â Feyreâs fingers trail down the side of my face and I look back to her, nodding slowly. Vague wisps of memories of the night this mess began floated through my mind, and I think of the cold, terrible fog that had flooded over the house and pressed against the glass like it was searching for a way in.
âFeyre?â
âYes, love?â
âThat fogâŚâ I stop speaking when her face darkens and reach for her hand instead.
âIt was terrible, dove, but Rhysand and Azriel have the matter in hand. It took us a while to pinpoint the source, but the protective shield around the city activated to keep it contained, so there werenâtâŚissues beyond the city walls. It was an old magic that hasnât been seen since the disappearance of the Dusk Court being wielded by someone it was never meant to come to. Admittedly, I donât know much about it, Rhys has been overseeing the interrogation while Iâve been here with you. Weâll discuss it later, love. Weâre all safe now.â
âI suppose thatâs all that matters,â I tell her with a shrug. Honestly, Iâm happy to leave ruling the territory to those who are far more suited to it. When I open my mouth to inquire about our missing mate, the handle on the bedroom door turns with a click and we both turn to see him slipping through it. Itâs a relief to see Rhys dressed comfortably in loose linen pants and an open wool cardigan, broadcasting his intentions to spend the night in. Itâs the sight of the babe curled in the crook of his arm, pressed snugly against his fatherâs chest that eases something deep within me, a knot of anxiety I hadnât really been conscious of.
The three people I love most are safe.
Feyre moves to sit with her side flush against mine, wrapping an arm around my shoulder. I lean into her side- sag into it, really. Iâm already so tired. Rhys settles on the edge of the bed beside us, his knees brushing against Feyreâs as he leans in to wordlessly place Nyx in my arms. Thereâs something unsettled in his expression Iâll ask about later, but the babe sniffling against my collarbone steals my attention. His fluffy, dark hair smells freshly washed, like the soap Mor always picks up for him during her shopping trips, and I canât help but nuzzle my nose into it. Feyreâs free hand slips beneath his little wings to rub his back in slow, soothing circles, and Rhys rests his hands on our legs, giving us all a moment to connect.
To breathe each other in.
âI love you,â I murmur against the crown of Nyxâs head between featherlight kisses. I lift my burning eyes to look at his parents, my mates, and take a deep breath before I continue. âAll three of you. I love you, IâŚIâm sorry I havenât really said it before, not the way Iâve wanted to, but I do. I love you and I want you and thisâŚand Iâm so sorry-â
Rhysand leans in to kiss me then: slow and chaste and full of promise. The moment he pulls back, Feyre ducks down to take a kiss of her own, one that leaves me floating and more than a little breathless as she nuzzles her nose against my cheek. No words flow between us, but there's no doubt in my mind that the moment I'm well enough to do so, we'll be consummating this mating bond. I don't ever want to let them go.

Omgggg wld u ever write carlosâ pov for the fic abt charles being a voyeur? Its sooo good i love it sm!!
hi anon! thanks for the lovely comment đ I think Iâve pretty much told all the story I wanted for this series, so I will not be revisiting Carlosâ perspective, which I think can be seen in part one!
in case you missed it, hereâs the (evermore) threesome series! â¨
-> the violence of the dog days - charlesâs perspective (prequel)
-> out on waves Iâm being tossed / is there a line that I could just go cross - carlos / reader; charles watches (part one)
-> in the cracks of light / i dreamed of you - the threesome! (part two)
-> it was real enough / to get me through - the morning after (part three)
thereâs another story that kind of exists in this universe unofficially as well:
-> put my mind at ease / pretty please - charles needs cheering up after a bad break up (part four-ish)
I so appreciate the love for this series but I also want to creatively explore other ideas and leave this threesome behind. I may have some ideas floating around for a mile high club threesome fic (courtesy of that vista jet video) so feel free to send me thoughts :)

Gilded Constellations | (wolfstar x reader)
Summary: You meet Sirius and Regulus at a family vacation in the Caribbean, but things don't go as planned and you end up losing contact once the trip is over. Years later your family moves to England and you get accepted at Hogwarts where you finally meet Sirius once again, along with all of his friends. One of them with a mysterious secret, that you'll uncover as you embark on your own Hogwarts adventure. Mostly canon-compliant. This IS a wolfstar x reader fic, but it's incredibly slow burn. They won't start all dating each other until we're very deep into the story, but I promise the long wait will be worth it.

A/N: Most Poly!Marauders fics are oneshots, where the relationship between characters is already established, and they're all happy and pleased with it. No issues, no drama, but I WANTED the drama. Couldn't find it, so I set myself up to write the story behind the stablished relationship. I wanted to know how they started dating each other, the jealousy, the will they won't they, because getting into a poly relationship can't be an easy task, and I wanted to explore that story. If you're interested: Welcome to Gilded Constellations!
Summary: Your journey to become a Motorsport legend wasn't easy, especially when your path clashed with your greatest rivals, Max Verstappen and Charles Leclerc.

Notes: this is full of motorsport categories inaccuracies, just go with the vibes please. There are a few inaccuracies regarding other drivers' lives, but they are just to fit the story. This chapter is very angsty and none of it is an attack at the drivers nor their fans and personalities, please.
I know I KNOW, this got out of hand, AGAIN. I promise next part (and hopefully last) is more focused on the romance, and the happy ending reader deserves.

Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 (soon)
-
You spent Christmas with your mom, sharing a lot of presents and watching a bunch of stupid Christmas movies. New Yearâs was now a tradition to spend with the Raikkonen Family, joined with the closest friends for a little get together. It was a good opportunity to reconnect with Kimiâs kids who missed you a lot during the season.
Charles never contacted you during winter break, which you were sure was the best after that mistake. You hated each other too much and the only thing that could come out of that was toxicity from the both of you. You refused to even acknowledge what had happened and its implications, that wouldnât and couldnât mean anything.
During the pre-season testing in Bahrain, you and Charles were back to whatever your relationship was before that one lapse in judgment months before.
Nobody noticed anything.
One day, Fernando pulled you aside for a little chat. You two sat side by side on big moving boxes, sipping on energy drinks.
âThereâs something I have been wanting to talk to you about since last year,â he started, seemingly pensive, distant.
âIs everything ok?â
âYeah, yeah. Remember after we first met when you asked me if I had advice for you regarding your career?â Fernando said, and you remembered.
Right after you had gotten close, you asked him for advice, you always did, especially about racing. But one day, you were chatting about his career, and you asked if had any lessons you should never forget. He had laughed joking about read all your contracts then asking if you were calling him old, but he said if he ever had any advice, he would tell you.
âYes, have you got my answer yet?â
âSĂ, Nena,â he paused, looking deep into your eyes, âenjoy.â
You frowned and he saw the confusion on your face.
âI see much of my younger self in you, you know? The same passion, this fiery desire to win, your goal for the championship, to conquer the worldâŚâ Fernando paused, looking up to the clear sky, the sunset coming around, âAnd I did. But I wish I had enjoyed it more. I shouldâve gone to parties, I shouldâve visited the countries we went to and tried the food, I shouldâve made more friends, I shouldâve had more lovers⌠I was so focused on winning, on getting my hands on that trophy of champion of the world, that I missed out on a lot.â
You felt your eyes tear up, and you wiped it before the tears came down. Putting your hand on his shoulder, you smiled at him.
âItâs such an honor race with you. And an even greater honor to have you as a friend, Nanoâ you whispered to him, you two laughed as his eyes watered too, and slapping his shoulder you laughed, âdonât make me cry, you old softie!â
You took his advice to your heart.
You went to the parties, you met new people, and thatâs how after two entire seasons, you managed to befriend Lando, your teammate. You two had to open your hearts a little bit and meet in the middle. Which proved to be great, the whole team loved the change in your dynamic. You still werenât besties, but you were close colleagues, and that was great. Everyone noticed the change and it reflected on how you started racing as a team instead of individually.
The car was even better than the year before, and the first race of the season you got a promising win.
That win, Landoâs pestering, and Fernandoâs advice was how you ended up in a party after the Bahrain GP. Wearing a skimpy mini dress and 5 tequila shots deep, swaying your hips to the sound of Rihanna. You were dancing and singing with Lando and a few of his friends, loudly screaming the lyrics.
When it was way too hot for you, you grabbed a water bottle and beelined your way out of the crowded dance floor. You found a corner of the VIP section where the AC seemed to be working better, and as you stumbled inside the small space, you ran chest first into someone.
âSorry,â you said, taking a step back and pressing your back against the cold wall.
âEnjoying your win?â Your head snapped up as you recognised Maxâs voice. You had run into him.
Lando had mentioned inviting Max to the party, he had gotten a P2 in the race but you doubted he would go to a party he knew you would attend. You were obviously wrong.
âYou know I am,â the victory was so good that nothing could ruin your mood.
âWell, then enjoy it. Iâm coming for the win, again.â He warned you but his voice was devoid of anything, just sounded like he was casually telling you about the weather. But you knew that he was implying his championship the year before, rubbing it in your face.
âDonât be so confident, Max,â you finished your water, smirking at him, âEnjoy the view of my rear!â
You flipped your hair, feeling his eyes on you the whole walk back to the dance floor.
And yet-
Somehow-
You ended up back at that small corner, dancing with your body pressed between Verstappenâs and the wall, his hand holding your jaw firmly, you rolled your hips against him, feeling the way his body responded to yours.
âWe canât-â he said to you, still, his eyes hadnât left your lips, like he was so oh so tempted.
You rolled your eyes, annoyed. Sober you would never do that, but then, that was a problem for later. Checking to see if anyone was looking at you, you hooked a finger around his waistband and pulled him towards the bathroom.
As soon as the two of you were inside, you locked the door and Max pressed your back against the door, latching his lips to yours in a very desperate open mouthed kiss. You hugged his shoulders, opening your lips to him, his hands went down your sides and he grabbed your ass, pulling you into him. But that wasnât enough, so he held your thighs and pulled up, carrying you. You locked your legs around his waist, and he stopped the kiss to walk, sitting you on the marble side of the sink, still between your legs, forcing his bulge against your panties, and eliciting a moan from you.
He took a half step back to hike your dress up, palming your cunt over your panties feeling the dampness of it, he tried to press his hand under your panties, but the lacy fabric didnât leave much space, so he simply tore the bottom of them, exposing you to him. He just ran a finger over your slit, collecting your wetness for a brief moment before pushing a finger into you. Max watched your face with concentration, studying your bodyâs responses. Your hips shaking at the movement of his finger, and when the second one joined, you got louder. He curled his fingers up, his thumb pressing your clit, and you had to use both hands to hold onto him, your head lolling back against the mirror.
âTake it and shut the fuck up,â he grunted between clenched teeth.
He was pressing your insides so good, the slick sound of his fingers going in and out, his heavy breathing, the loud music outside and his laser focused fingers had you coming against his fingers in minutes. When he noticed you close, cunt spasming against his fingers, he pressed the other hand against your mouth, covering your moans when your toes curled and you orgasmed on his hand.
Max barely let you recover as he opened his jeans and stroked himself twice before pushing his cock into you in one swift move, making you gasp at the sudden intrusion.
âThatâs what you wanted, right? Fucking teasing me all night,â He pushed particularly hard, hitting your g-spot, making you see stars, âyouâre a fucking menace, yâknow that? Fucking insufferable,â then his words became a mumbling of something dutch you couldnât quite catch anymore with the way his hips snapped against yours, taking all your focus away and turning you into a mess of moaning.
Max fucked like he raced, focused and relentless, brutal. He hugged you with one arm around your waist to keep you in place and the other held you face, tilting your head so he could kiss you, or whatever that mess of saliva, tongues and teeth was. Your orgasm crashed through you unexpectedly, and you only hugged him tighter, pressing your face against his chest, biting into his skin through the fabric of his T-shirt to silence yourself, your teeth sinking into him was enough to send him also over the edge, coming with moans against your ear.
That night, you went home with shaking legs and an incoming headache, as Max left with the scraps of your panties in his pocket and your lipstick stain on his shirt, above his chest.
It was the seventh race of the year, Monaco, and you absolutely hated that specific track since your years of F2. During your two first years in F1 you had awful experiences, the rookie year you DNF and the year prior you had barely managed a P7. You were trying to keep your head up, be hopeful that you could at least try for top 5.
But since you couldnât catch a fucking break, an old video of your teenage years resurfaced.
You were walking to your first round of interviews when Amanda, your PR manager, started walking by your side.
âThereâs something. An old video of a karting competition resurfaced, where Max and Charles pretty much call you stupid,â Amanda was always direct, you could give it to her.
âLet me see the videoâ you asked, offering your hand for her phone.
âWe donât have time, but everyone will ask you about it. I need you to be the bigger person and act like it isnât important, yes? They will try to taunt you and get a bad reaction from you, I need you to dismiss everything they throw at you. Agreed?â
You sighed. You knew the stuff from your teens were pretty bad, you rarely badmouthed Max or Charles, but they always felt threatened by you, so there were lots of instances they attacked you. Honestly, you just didnât want to come out of this victimized. So as you entered the first round of interviews, you decided you were going to downplay anything they asked you.
âY/N, have you seen the footage of you, Max and Charles from your teenage years that resurfaced recently?â
âNo, uh, I havenât.â
Someone pushed an iPad in your hands because of course, they wanted a live reaction from you. You pressed play, reading the subtitles someone put on the video. It was an amateur recording like a post race interview made by another teenage guy. First as Max walked out of the track, the guy asked what he thought of your win.
âIt was luck, sheâs not bright enough to think of a strategy,â Max said, walking away, clearly pissed having lost to you.
There was a cut and the camera was turned on again when Charles walked toward the guy asking the question. He repeated exactly the same question he had asked Max.
âY/N, I donât worry about her long term. Sheâs not going very far in this sport anyway,â Charles shrugged, seemingly unbothered.
As the video cut again, it showed your face, you remembered when that was. You were 14, and your dad had dropped you a few months earlier, so you were working your ass off balancing school, work and karting.
âHey, Y/N. What do you think of your result today?â
âUh, I tried a new strategy I learned earlier this week, thankfully it worked in my favor,â teen-You dried your forehead with your coatâs sleeve.
âWhat are your plans for this competition?â
âWell, I hope to be good enough to get into F4 next year, and work my way up into Formula 1,â you smiled softly and walked away after a quick bye.
The video ended and you still spent a few seconds staring at the black screen of the iPad. This interview didnât come to your mind in more than a decade, but it was nice seeing how you made your 14-year-old dream come true.
âSo, what do you say?â The reporter extended his mic to you.
âI guess I proved them wrong, right?â You giggled a little, âdonât take it to heart, really. We were all hormonal teenagers, Iâm sure if someone digs, they will find a video of me saying the same stuff about them,â you shrugged, despite that being a lie, sounded dismissive enough.
âSo it doesnât upset you?â The reporter insisted, and you knew he wanted a scandal you werenât willing to give.
âOf course not. Iâve always known my worth, and Iâm P1 in the driverâs championship as of right now. So I donât really care.â
The interviewers soon let the video go, when they realized you didnât care about it. You werenât sure if anyone would also approach Charles or Max with questions about the same video, but you couldnât care less, you wanted to avoid drama for the time being so you could focus on the championship instead of this bullshit.
On the morning of qualifying, you were in your room, trying to meditate and clear your mind, when a knock interrupted you.
âGuys, I asked for twenty minutes so I could-â you stop yourself when you realize it isnât anyone from your team, but itâs Max and Charles, âwhat are you doing here?â
âWe came to apologize about the video,â Max started.
âDid your PR teams send you here?â You looked around, trying to catch a camera or even a phone recording.
âNo uh, we realized we were very immature with you, and this video is just proof of how silly that was,â Charles sighed, seemingly embarrassed.
âYou donât need to apologize, I mean- the two of you really had it out for me, you called me dumb a lot,â you pointed to Max, then Charles, âand you called me ugly countless times. I donât know why it would make any difference now.â
You were just so used to being defensive, to protect yourself from hatred you found it hard to believe them, to give them a chance to apologize because you couldnât believe it to be genuine.
âEven if you donât take it, or believe it, I would like to apologize for that behavior. I was just a stupid kid.â Max looked deep into your eyes, which couldâve made you uncomfortable if he didnât seem so honest.
âIâm really sorry, Y/N. It was too idiotic to be like that to you, growing up. You were just a kid too.â Charles added.
You understood where that apology came from, it was stupid and embarrassing for all three of you this teenage rivalry when you all were barely mid racers back in the day. Sighing, you looked around, dropping your façade for a second, allowing yourself to display the same honesty they showed you.
It was hard and required some sort of deprogramming because you could only see them as rivals, like your dad had whispered in your brain so many times before, like their actions towards you had cemented dadâs words. They had said things that were on your mind for so long, that had made you defensive and deflective.
âLook, donât worry about it. Whatever happened back then, itâs water under the bridge,â You shifted on your feet. As they started walking away, you added âthis doesnât mean weâre friends.â
They only nodded before leaving. Your routine went back to the same, and as the next scandal went on, people forgot about the silly video, but a very specific part of the fans started shipping you and both your rivals.
The rivalry never died down though.
Then, out of nowhere, Sebastian pulled you and Lewis aside to a conversation. Then he told you that he was going to retire by the end of the season. It was the first time the two of them saw you cry, and Sebastian hugged you tight, shushing your crying softly.
âIâm so sorry, Iâm sorry,â he whispered, petting your head.
âNo, donât apologize,â you let him go, drying your face, âI have listened to you talking countless times about how you missed the kids. Donât apologize for choosing to be a great dad. I know Hanna and the kiddos will be ecstatic.â
âYou two are my closest friends here, thatâs why I wanted to tell you first, before my announcement.â
âThank you, Seb,â you said, eyes still watering, âIâm going to miss having you around.â
âThank you for telling us beforehand,â Lewis said, also visibly emotional.
The season was writing itself to be just as close as the year prior, but now you were slightly better at keeping the lead most.
That is until Zandvoort. This GP was always a nightmare to you, because it was full of Maxâs fans, and they absolutely hated you for being his rival. You had been booed when you were on the podium the year before, so now, you and Amanda decided it was best to keep your head down during the whole week. Not out of shame, but more of a matter of safety, you didnât know how far the crowd could go in antagonizing you. When you were booed the other year, Max had said it was part of the sport and dismissed the conversation.
The morning of free practice, you went into the paddock very low-key and kept to yourself. You arrived with a little cup of coffee and got mentally ready for a hostile environment the whole weekend. That, until you spotted a small group of people dressed with your color and wearing your number, waving wildly to you.
In a spur of the moment decision, you went there, getting close to the barrier to sign a few caps and take a few selfies. In retrospect, you knew you shouldnât have done that, especially with only two bodyguards accompanying you.
You were finishing chatting with your fans when you felt something heavy hit the side of your head and the impact made you stumble backwards, you were confused as you heard the screams and felt one of the bodyguards pull you back, as the other jumped the barrier and started running. You patted your temple and something wet and sticky was dripping down the side of your face. You stared at the small group of fans who were looking at you horrified. Staring at the hand, you saw the red staining your fingers, and as the bodyguard kept pulling you away to somewhere safer, the thing flowed even more and got into your left eye.
You wondered if it was blood as you touched your temple but felt nothing, not a gash nor small cut. You covered your left eye as it started to sting from what you supposed smelt like paint.
âHey, hey, what happened? Youâre bleeding!â Max jogged up to you.
âNot blood, just paintâ you muttered, trying to use your coat to clean your face.
âSomeone threw a paint ball at her,â the bodyguard said.
âFuck, itâs burning!â You exclaimed, feeling tears in your left eye.
âCome here, the RB hospitality is close,â Max said, holding your wrist, he stopped shortly pointing to your bodyguard, âand you, sort this and find the person who did it.â
You let yourself be taken by Max into the RB territory, the burning so annoying that you rather take whatever solution he was thinking of. He held your waist and placed you sitting on a sink, and then you felt water streaming down your face.
âStay still,â Max commanded, holding a hose over your head, pouring water down your face, ânow blink slowly, let the water wash it,â his voice soft as you did what he told you to. Slowly but surely, it washed the paint away, relieving your left eye from the stinging. Max held the hose up and held your chin, tilting your head up so he could check your eye, still letting the water stream down your face.
You took a few minutes, breathing and regulating your heartbeat from that scare, trying to come back to normal and understand fully what was going on. From what you gathered, you were chatting with fans when someone else came and threw something with paint at you.
âHow does it feel?âÂ
âItâs better, already stopped burning,â you told him, feeling your heart miss a beat at the close proximity you found yourself to him. You were sitting on a sink, Max standing between your legs pretty much like you two had done months before for entirely different reasons.
âOpen your eye, let me see,â he asked, and you tried to blink it open, âcan you see?â
âItâs a little blurry but I believe it will get better,â you explained, and he didnât let go of your chin. Suddenly, he covered your right eye with the other hand, leaving you only with your left eye sight.
âHow many fingers am I putting up?â He showed it to your left eye. The vision was a bit blurry but you still could make out the shapes very clearly.
âFour, Max. Itâs just a little bit blurry, probably will get better in a few minutesâ you sounded annoyed, you tried to move but he pressed a hand against your waist, keeping you in place.
âNow, what happened?â He asked finally. You ignored the proximity, and the hand still on your body.
âWeâre in Zandvoort, thatâs what happened,â you shrugged, really annoyed about it.
âWhat do you mean?â He was visibly confused. You scoffed because you knew it wasnât something he didnât know, since the year before he has dismissed the importance of how hostile people were to you.
âWeâre massively surrounded by your fans, Max.â
âI donât understand.â
âThey hate me because you hate me, and they think because you hate me theyâre justified in their hostility towards me,â You explained, with a sigh, you pushed away from Max, âthis GP has been like this for me ever since Rookie year.â
âI donât hate you,â he said, brows furrowed.
âYou do. And they do too,â you pointed down at the paint that had also stained your shirt as proof.
âI donât,â he insisted and you rolled your eyes, jumping off the sink, but he didnât give you space, which made you stand chest to chest with him, âI promise.â
You stared at him, breathless. That wasnât part of the game you played, being kind, sounding worried and making promises. None of that was part of this whole rivalry. Pushing his chest, you tried getting away but he caged you against the sink, body flush against yours.
âDo you believe me?â He asked and your eyes fell to his lips, and you allowed yourself to remember the desperate and chaotic kisses you had shared in a dimly lit bathroom, âI donât support any of this behavior.â
You heard voices and steps approaching, which made you finally push him away, walking towards the door. Whatever little magic had been happening between those walls was undone the moment you remembered none of that wouldâve happened if he had politely put a stop to it earlier.
âItâs part of the sport and I have to deal with it, right?â You returned the very same words he had said about you when you were booed by the crowd the year prior.
As you opened the door, you were faced with Sebastian. He stopped, taking you in and then pulling you in a hug.
âAre you ok? We just heard what happened!â He murmured, guiding you out of the bathroom. He held your shoulders and looked at your face, checking how your left eye was still a little red, âwe should take you to see a doctor, come on.â
Lewis soon arrived at the entrance of the RBR station, he warned about the reporters crowding outside, waiting for a glimpse of you after the attack. The British man gave you a Mercedes coat so you put it over your head and avoid the cameras waiting outside. With the bodyguards and both Lewis and Sebastian leading you away, you ended up at the medical center, and after a quick examination, the doctor gave you eye drops to put throughout the day.
Your Principal suggested you sit the FP1 out, letting the reserve driver take your place while you recovered. By the middle of FP1, your eyesight was 100% and you went to get ready for FP2. The whole day you felt like everyone was being extra careful, tiptoeing around you. You hated feeling like you were being pitied, so when the inevitable round of interviews came, you knew what you had to do.
âWe heard about your incident earlier today, how are you feeling about it?â Someone asked.
âIâm pretty upset, to be honest. Formula 1 is a sport loved around the whole world, and the paddock overall is supposed to be a safe place not only for the fans, but also the workers and drivers. What happened today is unacceptable and couldâve been much worse. Iâm voicing my dissatisfaction and I intend to, through legal means, take this complaint to the FIA.â
Later that night, as you laid awake on your bed, scrolling through the repercussions of the day, you stopped when you saw a snippet of Max's interview.
âWhat happened today was dangerous and unacceptable, I donât support this behavior and I stand with Y/N,â that was all he said, but Max usually was a man of few words, always knowing when it was enough.
You knew he shouldâve voiced that much earlier in your career, specifically after the booing the year before, but still- He also could have opted to not say anything at all, and he didnât.
Amanda also sent you the news that the fan who had attacked you was found and banned for life from Formula 1.
After calling Sebastian, you managed to get ahold of Maxâs phone number and texted him a simple message.
Thank you. Twice. - Lioness
The text went to read almost immediately, and the three dots appeared from his side of the screen. You wait, and wait, and wait. And then the dots disappeared, and an answer never came.
After a solid P2 that weekend in Zandvoort, you went home for the summer break. You and your mom had planned to go to Monaco for a little while since you were planning on buying a place there. From there, you and your mom would go all around the French Riviera to enjoy the sea and spend a few days in a spa resort. Then, you would go back home and relax before going to Ibiza for a weekend to meet Lando and his friends to enjoy some partying.
Everything went according to plan, but one day when you came back home after the trip to the French Riviera, you found your mom passed out on the living room floor.
You called an ambulance, quickly taking her into the hospital. Everything was a blur, the tests and scans, your mom still unconscious on a hospital bed, and the results. The results that pulled the floor from under your feet.
Your brain couldnât fully compute what was said. Cancer Stage 4. Surgery. Palliative care.
The world was muted around you as you sat on a chair in the waiting room, hands shaking when you tried to understand what was happening. You somehow ended up calling the one other person you trust.
âY/N? What happened?â
âI donât understand- she just- she just passed out and I thought- but- but they said- palliative careâ you try to come up with words.
âTalk to me. Are you sick?â Kimiâs voice is so focused and a little soothing.
âItâs momâ
âSend your location, Iâm going there,â thatâs all he said.
Waiting for Kimi gave you some sense of purpose, because itâs Kimi. He could fix anything. He fixed your life when you were 14, he can do it again. He would get there and find a way to help. Your mind got so clouded when the word cancer was thrown in the conversation, that you probably missed the part about treatments and- and surgery and stuff.
In your motherâs room there was a comfortable couch where you tried to settle to sleep, but you only spent countless hours awake. You hoped to see the doctor again to try and get him to explain everything for a second time.
You wished you were smart and quick, but no, you just sat there holding onto the hope that Kimi had a way to fix this.
Kimi arrived early the next morning, knocking on the door before entering. You stood up, hugging him tight.
âWhat happened?â
âItâs pancreatic cancer, they said. We need to see more about surgery and- and treatments.â
You and Kimi found the doctor, who explained again, and in that moment you finally understood what he meant the first time around. She was in a late stage of pancreatic cancer, which was usually a very difficult illness to find before it is too late, due to the placement of the organ in the body and late symptoms. The only options were either to try a very risky surgery and chemo so she could extend her life for around 8 months to a year. Or she could go home to live her last few months the way she wanted.
You begged and cried and bribed and offered every single solution your brain could muster to try and save her. Kimi held you when you fell to the floor, sobbing.
When your mom woke up and you and Kimi told her the diagnosis, she cried too, sobbing in your arms as you tried to hold it together for her sake. It took a couple of days for her to choose to go home. The two of you spent the last days of summer break traveling around the world a bit more, visiting temples and statues, and seeing nature and everything good the world had to offer, going to places motorsport hadnât taken you to.
Your mom went to every race week from there on, even when she felt especially weak, even when you had to hire a full time medical team for her.Â
Your focus on the season was solely on the moment between entering the car and leaving the car. You still managed to race like youâve done before, calm and controlled, with the help of your engineers and team, you still could put the car where you wanted it, paving your way for a solid world championship that year. It was like your brain was seeing racing as the one thing in your life you had full control over, so sometimes you even felt like you and the car were one.
You didnât tell anyone about her. Though every driver noticed how distant you were, even Charles and Max and the ones that werenât very close to you noticed how you were only fulfilling your obligations and leaving, you werenât even celebrating your wins, leaving the fastest you could after a race.
The Singapore GP was tough for you, having to leave your mom home alone with the medical staff and a couple of friends from her book club, since she wasnât strong enough to travel anymore. Your attention was failing all throughout media day and free practices. Qualifying was shit compared to your performance the rest of the season.
In Q3 you did a reasonable sector 1 and 2 but you messed up sector 3 completely. It was a complete accident when you got in the way of a Ferrari when he was doing his fast lap, and you ended up messing his qualy too. Jace let you know it was none other than Charles Leclerc, who was setting the pace for a pole position. Out of 19 drivers, you had to ruin his lap. In the end, Max got pole, Charles qualified P3 and you qualified P5.
You went through the motions during the post qualifying press. You were about to leave after debriefing, when Charles Leclerc found you on the way to the parking lot. You pulled your coat tighter around yourself protectively as he walked up to you. You were hoping to escape his fury at least until after the race the next day. Before he could even get a word in, you started.
âLook, I know I messed up your pole. I know you wonât believe me, but it wasnât intentional. I really thought there was no one doing fast laps on the track, I thought everyone was either still doing out laps or in the pits, so when you-â
âCalm down, breathe,â he interrupted you, âIâm not here to fight.â
âNo?â You frowned, confused with the kindness in his eyes.
âWe know youâre going through something, and Iâm sure Iâm the last person you want to hear this from, but youâre not alone. And you should really consider talking with someone on the grid. Theyâre all- weâre all worried about you.â
The words felt alien coming from his mouth, but the gentleness was so comforting you felt a lump in your throat.
âWhy do you think Iâm not ok?â You muttered trying to sound confident, but your voice failed, betraying you.
âYouâre skinny and you look sleep deprived for a few weeks now,â Charles said directly.
âDamn, thanks.â
âI donât mean it like that, you know it,â he paused, putting both hands on his pockets, âhave you been eating?â Your lack of response made him press further, âhave you eaten today?â
You pressed your lips together, not wanting to answer that.
âLetâs go, Iâll drive you to the hotel, weâll stop on the way to grab some food,â Charles gestured to his car, a few meters away. You stood there, shocked as he started walking away, then he stopped looking over his shoulder, âcome on, I donât have all the time in the world.â
As you sat in his Ferrari, Charles put music on and you didnât do much talking, but it was tranquil. He called the restaurant to order take out on the way, and 30 minutes later he dropped you off at the hotel with a bag full of food.
âThank you, Charles.â You whispered before leaving the car.
You ate the food while on a video call with your mom.
You recovered well during the race, finishing P2, behind Max and ahead of Charles.
Your mom passed away a few days after the Japanese Grand Prix, the one you had won and dedicated it to her from the top step of the podium, even if she wasnât there, just watching from home. You went home and stayed with her, holding her hands and hugging her as much as you could.
Some part of you knew she was somehow fighting, because she had promised you the year before she would be there when you became world champion. You could see she was hoping to make it to the end of the season, but you also knew she wouldnât, and you rather she didnât have to endure any more pain just for your sake.
âYou donât need to fight anymore, ma,â you whispered before she went to sleep, âyou raised a strong woman, too. I will see you on the other side, ok? You can rest now, I love you.â
âIâm so proud of you, honey. I love you to the moon and back.â
You made it through her small funeral, following what she had written down before passing. An intimate funeral, full of flowers and a toast to her life. You cried the whole time, with Kimi and Minttu taking turns at comforting you as they could. Coming back to an empty home smelling of cleaning products made you almost lose your mind, and the sight of you in such despair was enough for Kimi to convince you to stay with them until you had to travel for the next race, in almost seven days.
The days passed in a crying blur, you let part of your team know about your momâs passing. Only Amanda, Jace and your Principal. Jace tried to convince you to take a break and not go to the next race in Mexico, but you quickly shut it off. Not only because racing was the one thing keeping you sane amidst the chaos, but because you were so close to the championship, and it was still close competition with Max and Charles, so you couldnât afford to lose a race and the points that could come with it.
You had to honor your mom in some way.
Thatâs how you ended up on a plane to Austin with Kimi and Amanda. You knew Kimi had convinced you to let him go because he was sure youâd have a mental breakdown anytime along the weekend, but deep down you appreciated the company. Arriving there, Jace was the first to hug you and whisper his condolences, as well as your TP too.
You survived the entire weekend without breaking down crying in public, but that was your worst race in a few months, the first time out of a podium since Spa. You ended up P5, which luckily wasnât too bad because Max finished P4 which you were grateful for as he was the one who was P2 in the driverâs championship close behind you.
After that week, you packed your stuff and moved to the new condo in Monaco you had bought during summer break. Despite loving your mom to pieces, you couldnât manage to live alone in the house you bought for her a couple of years before, it was lonely and it hit you with overwhelming waves of sadness all the time. You distracted yourself a lot with buying furniture and decorations for the new place, and discovering Monte Carlo in a whole new way. The one comfort in all that, was knowing your mom wasnât suffering anymore.
Then you went straight to Mexico for the next Grand Prix, this time, Kimi left you because he had to come home to Minttu and the kids. Amanda had been such a support for you, that you knew you had to give her something special for the holidays, out of gratitude.
Everything was going as expected until the press conference. You were there with Charles, Max, Sebastian and Lando. You suspected they were putting you always in the same group as Max and Charles because, as the season nearing the end, only three races left, they were your close competition.
While someone asked something of Charles, you were whispering with Sebastian, chatting about Mexican foods you wanted to try after the race. Then, something bizarre happened, and phones started to ping all around the room, between reporters, cameras and everyone else started checking their phones. It seemed like something out of a black mirror nightmare.
You reached for your phone but then remembered you left it to charge in your room.
âThis question is for Y/N,â a reporter asked, reading something from his phone, âthereâs a new article that just came out saying your mom passed away a couple of weeks ago, is that true?â
Your blood ran cold, and every sound felt like it was muted inside the room. Wide eyed, you searched for Amanda, who was somewhere on the opposite side of the room, and when you found her, she was pale. Then, there was a cacophony of voices and cameras and questions, that made you suddenly overwhelmed.
Swallowing, trying to reassess, you found Sebastian already standing, holding your shoulders. Looking around you noticed how the other three drivers had stood up, making some sort of shield around you, protecting you from the cameras and reporters swarming around.Â
âWe can go, ok? Come on,â Sebastian was saying when Amanda caught up to you, leaning beside Sebastian.
âWe can leave, right now,â she said, holding your hand.
Still a little confused, you nodded and let them both guide you back to your room.
âIâm so sorry, Iâm so sorry for your loss,â Sebastian hugged you, running his hands on your back for comfort.
âHow- how did they find out?â You ask Amanda.
âAn article came out, Iâm not sure. Someone was probably digging into your life, but donât worry, I put the team on it already.â
âHow do- how we diffuse this? How do we proceed? We need to address this, right?â You started blabbering, trying to wrap your head around everything.
âThat was very disrespectful of them to ask like that!â Sebastian exclaimed, making you two jolt.
âWeâll do whatever youâre comfortable with. Do you want me to release a note asking for privacy?â Amanda suggested.
âCan I write something and then run it by you?â You asked, she only nodded.
After a moment, both Amanda and Seb left you alone as you typed a note on your phone. You rewrote and deleted a few times before settling on something heartfelt and respectful but also, calling out the invasion of privacy.
My mom passed away a few days ago after battling with cancer for the past few months.
She had requested of me to keep it a secret until after the season was over, so I could mourn her without the weight of racing over my shoulders.Â
But obviously someone went digging and disrespected not only one of her last wishes but also disrespected my grief and my right to privacy. I love my mom but Iâll not be answering any more questions about her illness or death, please respect me and respect her memory.
All the love, Y/N
Nobody asked anything over the weekend, but again, it felt like everyone was tiptoeing around you. As soon as you first saw Nano the next day, he held you tight for almost a minute whispering his condolences, and it made you almost cry again. Lewis also spared you a hug, saying if you ever needed anything, to contact him.
You survived that weekend, and decided to go straight to Brazil for the next GP instead of going back to Monaco. In SĂŁo Paulo you mostly slept your worries and fears away. You had promised yourself to try and focus on the season only, to make your dream come true, to fulfill your momâs promise in some way.
With Ferrariâs bad strategy in Mexico, they had ruined Charlesâ chance at the championship. Now your only competition was Max and the Red Bull rocketship.
You rewatched the race a couple of times as you usually did, to try and catch any mistakes you or your team may have made, to fix it for the next one. But also to try and notice any weaknesses of your rivals, if it was something you could use in your own favor.
You noticed right away in the FP1 that your car wasnât adhering to the track, you were losing balance and needed more force than usual to keep yourself in place. By FP2, you managed to control your car better, but that caused your tyres to wear off way more quickly.
Quali was one of the shittiest youâve ever done in your career, taking you out in Q2 for the first time that year, placing you for a start at P12.
âListen, weâll do better tomorrow, ok?â Jace told you as soon as you entered the garage, seeing Max still out with a shot at pole position.
âGive me a few minutes to unwind, please,â you asked, dropping your helmet, balaclava and gloves at a nearby table.
You went straight to your room, searching for your phone. Immediately calling Kimi, you waited for him to pick up.
âI watched it,â he said first and foremost.
âIf I do bad in the race tomorrow, and Max does well, then Iâm gonna lose the championship, Kimi,â saying that out loud made you shiver in horror, âFUCK!â You screamed, kicking a chair.
âFirst of all, even if you did bad tomorrow, youâd still have a chance to fight for the championship in Abu Dhabi. You know that,â Kimi warned you as if he was scolding a little kid, âsecond of all, I never taught you this loser mindset. Youâll have to find a way to work around the problems in your car tomorrow.â
âShit, Iâm so fucked! How? How could I even-â
âRemember when I first met you? Your kart was with almost this same problem, yeah? Remember you got P2? You went ahead and fixed it. Thatâs what I need you to do tomorrow, donât focus on what you canât do, only focus on what you can do.â
âIâll try my best.â
âNo trying. Do it.â
After spending the entire night crafting plan A, B, C and Z with you strategists and engineers, you barely got any sleep, but you forced yourself to rest. In the morning, you went to the track early to meet with your team again, to run your strategies one more time, when you had an idea. Youâd still follow the plans you had carefully crafted with the team, but you decided to make a Plan Star, as you had called. Interlagos didnât have any safety car in the last two years, so it was dangerous to fully count on one. But your plan star consisted in the case of a safety car in this one specific window of laps, youâd go to the pits for hards, counting on everyone else being on old softs or mediums at that specific point in the race. But for it to work, you had to be the first of the front field to go in.
As the lights went out and you accelerated, you got already three positions up, landing in P9, and luckily, the points zone. Jace was worried in your ears, talking about the car and the tyres management. With controlled calm and Kimiâs voice in your head, you managed a few more positions in the first 14 laps, landing P7. You lost a bit of time there, since Nando was P6 and everyone knew how tough it always is to overtake him. But you eventually managed to get the position. Unfortunately, it was the moment you had to go to your first pitstop. Due to the problems in your car wearing off your tyres, you would have to go for a two-stop, which ended up costing you three positions again. But you were patient and you were rewarded when the other cars had to pit, which gave you back the four places you had lost.
The race you went on and you barely moved up or down from your P5, but you managed to concentrate.
Jace, on the other hand was sounding more and more worried about your second pit stop, about the difficulty in get closer to P4, about the P6 trying to enter DRS zone behind you, with your tyres wearing off, with the-
âJace, I love you but please shut the fuck up, I know what to do,â you were praying for a miracle when suddenly, there was a yellow flag, and the safety car went out during the perfect window of laps, âfuck, Jace, this is plan star.â
âCopy,â he paused, his voice sounding secure, âBox, box.â
You changed into hards, no one else went to the pits, and the race restarted after three more laps. The safety car had closed the gap between you and the P4, which made you overtake him easily.
Jace was still keeping quiet to help your concentration, he only interrupted to warn you about overheating your tyres, and your velocity per lap compared to the next position. You started overtaking like a madwoman as much as your tyres allowed.
âThatâs P1, Lioness,â Jace told you.
âCopy that.â You said with your voice shaken.
As you managed your P1, you went back to be aware of your surroundings, seeing a Red Bull right behind you, trying to overtake but you managed to hold position.
When you took the checkered flag, you sighed with relief, Kimi was right.
âCongratulations, Y/N! Thatâs a brilliant, brilliant win!â Jaceâs voice was sounding shaken too.
âYouâre crying, Jace?â You laughed softly.
âItâs an honor to tell you that you, Y/N Y/L/N, are a Formula 1 world champion!â Jace shouts, and behind him you can hear more people screaming.
âWhat? Jace youâre fucking with me!â
âNo, Lioness, youâre the 2022 champion of the world!â
âBut- but how? Thereâs one race left? And Max was right behind me!â
âNo, Verstappen DNFed during that one yellow flag. Behind you was Perez.â
You made the calculations quickly in your head. Max was P2 in the championship, but this DNF meant no points, and even if he managed to win the last race in Abu Dhabi, he wouldnât be able to equal you in points. So-
âOH MY GOD, oh my god!â You screamed your lungs out, feeling the tears streaming down into your balaclava, âFuck yes! Iâm Formula 1 World Champion! Thank you, thank you so much guys! Jace, holy shit, Iâm the champion!â
âYouâre the champion!â Jace confirmed.
You felt joy in a way you hadnât felt in a long, long time, as you stopped your car on the number one spot. Still a little dizzy from the thrill, you left the car, going straight to your team, heavily waiting for you. They all hugged you, hitting your helmet, saying congratulations and everything. You took a moment to hug Jace and Amanda, who had been of great support throughout the year.
After getting weighted and being congratulated by the other two on the podium, Perez and Hamilton, the latter hugging you tight as he took you off the floor, you drank water as you waited for the post race interview with Nico Rosberg.
You were giddy, barely holding yourself together with how happy you were feeling, how you wanted to hold the trophy, how grateful you were and more importantly, how you felt a great weight being lifted off your shoulders.
âY/N, congratulations on becoming a World Champion! I have to say, as a girl dad, it is great to see you become the first woman ever to win this title. How do you feel? What do you want to say?â Nico offered, with a kind smile.
âTo be honest, I can barely contain myself. Itâs such an honor to be here and be the world champion. I look at the past and see my younger self who never thought would make it to Formula 1. Itâs such a dream come true, after this yearâs hardships, Iâm glad to achieve the greatest dream of them all!â You said, kinda quickly, rambling as you tried to put into words all the emotions mixed with the happiness, âIâm sorry, I know Iâm taking up all your time, I just want to dedicated this win, and this championship to three people who saved my life: Kimi, thank you for being the salvation of my career when we first met; And my mom, whoâs not here anymore, thank you for being the light in my darkest days. And lastly, I want to thank myself for working my ass off and never giving up.â
You muttered a thank you as Nico only laughed at your rambling. Before you moved to the cooldown, you grabbed the mic back again.
âMay I add one last thing?â You asked for Nico, who only nodded, pointing to the camera again, âThis is to my father: I made it, you asshole.â
You wanted to send the middle finger too, but you knew you couldnât because of the FIAâs guidelines, and you were already risking a penalty for cursing on live TV. In the cooldown room, you sat beside Lewis, watching a few highlights of the race on the screen. It showed a couple of your overtakes.
âDamn, you overtook like crazy,â Lewis muttered, seemingly amazed.
âI pulled a Lewis Hamilton in Interlagos last year,â you joked, and he laughed.
That podium felt like the culmination of everything you had worked for your whole life, felt like recovering your love for the sport for what it was, for the fast cars and the adrenaline. Being on that podium in Brazil as a World Champion shifted something inside you forever. During your anthem, you laughed, and when you got the trophy, you cried, pointing the trophy to the sunny sky with a silent prayer to your mom. You barely noticed, but you felt the champagne raining on you, and opened your arms to shower in it. Putting the trophy down, you splashed the other bottle, laughing and wetting everyone that was close to you, Lewis, Checo, Jace, who had gone up representing the team.
When the celebration ended, you stayed behind a little more, watching the crowd from the podium, and they started chanting. It took you a few seconds to realize they were chanting your name.
You raised your trophy at them, and they cheered even louder. Then you pointed it to the sky again.
âLook, ma, I made itâ you whispered to yourself, feeling the tears streaming down your face.
