The dull hum of Melbourne at night seeps through the hotel window, a distant urban murmur against the glass. A sliver of light from the parted curtains cuts across the room, carving two isolated beds from the shadows. Oscar lies motionless, hands laced behind his head, eyes fixed on the ceiling. The quiet between him and Lando isn't empty—it’s dense, weighted with everything left unspoken all season. The race is done, the grandstand roar faded, yet his heart still pounds a frantic rhythm against his ribs. He turns his head, studying the dark shape in the other bed. "Lando?" he whispers, the name barely more than an exhale. He holds his breath, waiting for a reply that might never come.
