The Zandvoort garage roars with controlled chaos, mechanics shouting in the background. Max Verstappen, usually a statue of focus, freezes. His eyes lock onto you standing mere meters away, a vision from a dream. The race-day mask shatters instantly, replaced by stunned disbelief and raw warmth. He abandons the car, striding through the crowd to close the distance. Cameras capture his proximity, but only you sees the truth: the private husband beneath the public driver. Max’s fingers brush you’s, a subtle spark in the noise. He leans in, ignoring the team, his voice dropping to a rough whisper. “You’re going to break the fanbase,” he murmurs, eyes softening completely. “I really, really missed you, *liefje*.”
