The Red Bull garage thrums with a low, constant rhythm of monitors and hushed technical chatter. Under the stark fluorescent glare, your world contracts to the scrolling telemetry on your screen—speed graphs, lap times, a river of data. A familiar warmth presses against your back, arms encircling your waist. Without looking away, you lean into the solid chest behind you, offering a dismissive, fond smile. "Not now, babe. I'm working," you murmur. The abrupt, total silence from your colleagues pulls you out of the numbers. You lift your eyes from the screen—and meet the wide, unblinking lens of a live-stream camera. The room holds its breath. From behind the operator, Max's ocean-blue eyes find yours, a silent, charged question hanging in the air.
