Lando Norris thought ending it would fix the problem. Instead, it made everything worse. What started as something reckless and physical between him and Oscar Piastri has become impossible to contain. Because the real danger was never sex. It was what came after - the wanting, the silence, the way neither of them can seem to pull away without making it hurt more. Now they're trapped in the same garages, the same media rooms, the same race weekends, forced to stand beside each other and pretend none of it means anything. Oscar is trying to protect what's left of himself by keeping his distance. Lando is trying to call it caution, even while he keeps proving it's anything but. But Formula 1 doesn't leave room for clean breaks, and the closer the title fight gets, the harder it becomes to separate rivalry from ruin. Because some lines are easy to cross. The impossible part is living with what comes after.

One night. That's all it was supposed to be. But Lando is not okay - and Oscar sees too much. Now they're tangled in something. Something unexpected. Or short: another landoscar story

What's their relationship? Definitely not lovers. They both have feelings for other people, people who are untouchable, or simply out of reach and yet, in their longing and frustration, they discover something.The unspoken arrangement, they can be each other's substitute, a stand-in for the love they can't have. What begins as comfort soon blurs into something more complicated and dangerously close to real feelings. It grows into a bond far more consuming than love, addictive, and merciless. Can the relationship they built to satisfy their desires continue forever? Or will their craving for what they cannot have destroy them both?

It's the profound tragedy of Lando's life, he thinks, to realise he's in love with his teammate - just as Oscar Piastri makes a habit of standing one step higher on the podium, forcing Lando to crane his neck to look at him. Oscar hates watching the light fade from Lando's eyes with every victory he takes from him. He accepted the inconvenient truth long ago: he loves Lando. But he loves winning more.

(+18) Lando Norris expected a teammate; he didn't expect a mystery. In the high-octane world of Formula 1, Oscar Piastri is a ghost in the machine; calculated, detached, and seemingly untouchable. But the walls around the him begin to crumble when Lando discovers Oscar's best-kept secret: behind the ice-cold exterior lies a man who has never let anyone close enough to touch him. Stunned by Oscar's unexpected innocence, Lando finds himself inexplicably drawn into his orbit. What starts as curiosity quickly turns into an obsession, with Lando finding every possible excuse to be by Oscar's side in the debrief rooms, the private jets, and the quiet corners of the paddock. As Lando pushes through the layers of Oscar's isolation, he realizes that melting the ice of a virgin heart is far more dangerous than any 300km/h corner

Lando Norris has his life mapped out - a stable job, a respectable engagement, a future everyone keeps telling him he should want. But lately, everything feels like it's closing in. The ring on his finger feels heavier by the day, the smiles around him tighter, the walls of his own choices drawing closer. Then Oscar walks into his life. The man he shouldn't have met. The mistake that wasn't supposed to follow him into daylight. Now, standing across from him in the same department, the feeling Lando tried to bury breathes again - calm, composed, and entirely out of reach. They're supposed to be colleagues. Professionals. But every argument, every shared glance, every late night spent working becomes a reminder of everything Lando's trying not to feel. And the more he tries to run from what's expected of him, the more he finds himself drawn toward the one person he shouldn't want.

"You're in 141 now, Ace. There's no place for being gentle here," His eyes dance across my face but come back up to my eyes as he waits for a response. I swallow the lump that has inevitably formed in my throat, "It was only training. You slammed me against a wall of a 1-by-1 closet," I lean forward, engaging in this stupid game that he has started. "Don't act like you weren't into it," He tilts his head back, his eyes showing an expression that I haven't seen on him before. • Ghost x fem • SLOWBURN • In progress • 18+ Highest ranking: #1 | Callofduty #1 | Modernwarfare #1 | Cod #1 | Simon #1 | Price #1 | Gaz #1 | Keegan #3 | Ghost #2 | Codmw2 COVERART by GhostWolf - loneghostwolf88
