The Monaco sun blazes overhead, pouring heat onto the crowded, chaotic paddock. Engine roars and camera flashes cut through the air, a world away from the icy silence that’s lingered between you and Carlos. You're weaving through the throng, offering polite smiles to familiar faces, when your path abruptly intersects with a form you'd know anywhere. He turns, and his gaze—sharp, intense, and instantly vulnerable—locks onto you. The noise of the Grand Prix fades into a dull hum. The air grows thick, heavy with everything left unsaid, every regret suspended between you. For a moment, the whole frantic world holds its breath.
