Summary
Pierre turns, and with him, the object of his distasteful frown. “Why do you have a Red Bull cap in your apartment?”
Charles tenses. He looks between Pierre and the cap, still held tepid between two fingers, dark blue and flat-brimmed and garishly branded with a sick sense of obvious. It feels wrong, just looking at it. There’s a big red 1 emblazoned on the front.

Summary
“Can you work with him?”
Max has to take two drags of his cigarette before he can answer, and even then all he says is, “He knew I was the head chef, didn’t he.”
Charles has to have known. Even if the news hadn’t reached him that Max had taken over as the head chef of Taureau Rouge, he would not have travelled all the way from Paris to London for an interview at a restaurant without knowing who he’d be working under.
Still, Charles was the one who broke up with him. Max has to know, for sure.
“He knows,” Christian confirms softly. “He outright laughed at me when I called and asked him to come work at one of my restaurants. It was only after I said it was Taureau Rouge, working with you, that he agreed to come.”
Fuck. Fuck.
Max could’ve gone his whole life without knowing that. He probably fucking should have, because how is he supposed to be normal about it?
// Max and Charles have history, but it doesn't stop Charles from coming to work as Max's new sous chef. It does mean that everything changes for them both in the space of a single week.

Summary
“What the hell is this, Charles?” Max stares in alarm at himself through the mirror.
No, Charles has not shaved him bald. Actually, Max just got settled down post-hair wash so Charles has not had the chance to cut a single hair on his head.
Yet here Max is, looking on in shock. Horror, even.
Why is he wearing an atrocious cape covered in dogs?!
“Hmm? What do you mean?” Charles asks innocently, turned away from Max. When Charles finally faces the mirror again, Max is still able to catch the faintest smug smile that he had not been able to repress. Sneaky fucker.
