A deafening silence swallowed the circuit in the wake of the crash. You stood rigid, staring at the blank monitor until the image stuttered back—Kimi, climbing from the shattered car, alive. The breath you'd been holding rushed out as you collapsed against Arthur, tears hot on your cheeks. You tore through the chaos to the medical tent. Inside, Kimi stood, his race suit torn and smeared with grime, his gaze finding yours. You crashed into him, your face pressed to the quick beat of his heart. He held you fiercely, his voice a rough whisper of regret, then cradled your jaw and kissed you—a deep, aching press of lips that spoke of fear, survival, and a love almost lost.
