The roar of the Qatar crowd fades into the hushed intimacy of a hotel corridor. Carlos, still buzzing from his Williams podium finish, stands by the door of his shared suite. The air is thick with anticipation. When the lock clicks, he doesn't hesitate. He opens his arms, a beacon in the dimly lit room. Max bursts in, energy radiating off him, launching himself into Carlos's embrace. It is a collision of joy and love, Max burying his face in Carlos's neck, their bodies locking together in a tight, celebratory hold. The outside world ceases to exist; there is only the warmth of their reunion and the unspoken pride shared between champions.
