“ An auction?”
Oscar sat on the bed as Logan went through the email detailing the event.
“Yeah, to raise money for Williams.” Logan sounded tired. It was a tough race but he’s sounded tired since the beginning of the season.
Concern bubbled up in Oscar’s chest, a worry that had Oscar wondering if the FIA should be involved. “Are there rules about what you guys will have to do? Or rules about what you guys can’t do?”
Logan looked up, an eyebrow raised in bewilderment before realizing what Oscar meant. “Oh! No, no, no. We can’t do anything like that. It’s more about spending time, lunches, photo ops. That kind of stuff. Most of the people bidding are companies, podcasts, and other content creators. It’s only for two weeks.”
“Oh… that’s good.” Oscar felt the worry brewing in his chest settle a bit. He knew Williams wasn’t as wealthy as McLaren and a lot of other teams but pimping out their drivers was an issue that Oscar was sure the GPDA would crack down on. “Can anyone bid?”
“Uh, yeah? If you have the money, I think so.” Logan smiled with that cute grin that had Oscar’s heart doing flips like it was Simone Biles. “Why? Thinking of using that hard-earned McLaren money and bidding on me?”
‘Yes.’ Oscar thought. ‘I could get you all to myself for two weeks.’ ”
“No,” Oscar said, like a liar. “I think I’ll let others have a chance. Some charity might want you to do some press for them. It wouldn’t be right for me to take you from them.”
Logan laughed and with the sunlight from the window making his hair glow like a halo, Oscar was sure he died and was in heaven. “How charitable. Hopefully someone cool gets me for the two weeks and not a company that wants me to film two weeks worth of media content.”
How was Oscar supposed to know that he would regret refusing to bid? More importantly, how was he supposed to know that Kyle Kirkwood had enough money to bid on Logan?
Alex was whisked away by a wonderful charity that connected kids and wildlife rescue efforts. George had actually won the bid and set up a whole thing for Alex to collaborate with a charity that his boyfriend was an avid supporter of. Now the couple are filming a cute mini-series about them going around rescuing hedgehogs and taking kids to the zoo. It’s obviously going to bring in millions for conservation and outreach.
If Oscar knew he could do that, he would’ve done so. He’s done media activities to support conservation efforts and Logan loved the ocean. But no, Oscar was dumb and unromantic and as punishment for his sins, he had to watch Kyle Kirkwood whisk his best friend – their best friend? – back to the states for “rest and relaxation.”
“F1 drivers are so busy and Logan’s rarely home. So I thought being in the US and with friends and family would help him out. Balancing stress and learning how to relax is important for mental health,” was Kyle Kirkwood’s reasoning when asked by Skysports.
Fans ate this up, talking about how homesick Logan and the other non-European drivers must be and how wonderful it was that drivers were prioritizing not only their own mental health but also each other’s.
Oscar bit his bottom lip hard while watching the video of Logan realizing who bid a whole $500,000 on him. Oscar didn’t even know Indycar drivers earned that much. He could see the anxiety on Logan’s face as he was on stage, wondering if anyone was even going to place a bid before someone started the bid at $50,000 and a back and forth ensued as the number got higher and higher and Logan’s anxiety turned to happiness and then genuine worry about who had bid so much on him. Which, in Oscar’s opinion, was a low bid. If he was there, he would’ve bid a million and been done with it. Would his parents and financial advisors be pissed? Maybe, but they would see it was for a good cause.
But he didn’t bid, because again, he was an idiot and sat on the sidelines as Logan's shocked expression turned to joy and he flashed that stunning, angelic smile that should only be reserved for him, at the “wonderful” Kyle Kirkwood. So now the two of them were off to the States and Logan, for what seemed to be the first time in his life, has started posting stories and photo dumps on his time in the States.

Happy to be back in the states!🦅

It brought an uncomfortable feeling to Oscar’s heart. Logan never really posted about them on his Instagram. Heck, the only drivers featured on Logan’s instagram were Oscar himself and Alex, but mainly Alex. However, Kyle was always there with a like or a comment. When people were attacking Logan about Bahrain, even though it was the steering wheel’s fault, Kyle was out there defending him with screenshots.
Mclaren F1 🧡
Lando
Can you chill with the sighing? I can hear you sulking from my room🙄
Oscar
I’m not sighing
Or sulking
Lando
Sorry, my mistake
Being insanely jealous and sad that Logan is on a cute trip with his Florida bestie and you’re here alone🤪
Oscar
Go die
Lando
that’s not very nice
Oscar
Suck it up
It’s bad enough Carlos is here
Now you come after me
Lando
My boyfriend is here to support me🥰
You could benefit from that
Oscar
From Carlos supporting me? No thanks
Lando
No, from you getting a boyfriend
Oscar
No thanks
I’ll die alone
You should do that too
Lando
🥲
I know you’re just saying these things because you’re hurt
Oscar
I’m not hurt
Lando
Acceptance is the first step to healing
Oscar
Can I ask you something?
Lando
Sorry, I’m not interested in a threesome
I’m too possessive of Carlos
Oscar
NO!
NOT THAT!
WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?
WHY WOULD ANYONE WANT CARLOS?
Lando
Hey!
There is a wonderful team out there who will appreciate Carlos
Not my fault you’re blind and can’t see beauty when it’s in front of you
But what’s up?
Oscar
Do you think Logan is happier with Kyle than me?
Lando
No, I think he’s very happy with you
Everyone sees how happy he is next to you
Oscar
I know
But what if Logan is happier in the states
Lando
Well, then it won’t be your fault Logan is happier there
It’s the sport
And Williams
He’s happy with you, trust me
***
Oscar lay down on the bed of his driver’s room, his phone held to his chest. This sport was cruel and unfair. Everyone coming into it knew it, but not once did he think it would take his best friend away from him.
He knows how unreliable Williams has been this season. Taking Logan’s car away, promising him upgrades only for them not to fit, the comments from commentators – Oscar sees the light fade in Logan’s eyes day by day.
Oscars felt his eyes burn and start to water as he closed his eyes. It felt so selfish wanting Logan to stay in this sport that didn't treat him well, but what would Oscar do without him? Logan could go off somewhere and meet other people, ones who could coax a wonderful smile to his face and make him feel loved in a way this sport and his team haven’t.
He knew Jenson was racing in WEC and wondered if Logan could join it. Jenson would take care of Logan, would look out for him and Logan would still be here in Europe. If Logan joined Indycar, they might never see each other ever again.
FOP
Fred
How’s the US?
And Indycar?
Logan
It’s great!
In Indianapolis today
Fred
Are you testing out a car?
Logan
No, attending a test drive with Kyle
I get to be at the pit wall though
Fred
Don’t leave us for them 😓
Logan
How would I leave?
I don’t even think the Williams contract would let me drive an Indycar
Oscar
How is Indianapolis?
Logan
It’s nice
Staying at Colton’s house
Kyle’s teammate
Oscar
How are they treating you?
Logan
Everyone’s treated me really well
A couple drivers invited me out for dinner
Romain invited me out for a flight
Overall, it’s really fun!
There’s a charity race happening this weekend so I’m attending as a guest of Andretti
Oscar turned off his phone and tucked it under the pillow.
Logan was happier there. Everyone’s treating him so well, inviting him out, making him feel at home. ‘What did I do wrong? Why isn’t he happier with me?’

@Andrettiindy
We have a new guest! 🦅

@Andrettiindy
Best investment Kyle ever made
[VIDEO
Logan was in the passenger seat of a large SUV. Colton was in the driver seat and Kyle was in the back.
“So we’re picking up lunch for the team today-” Colton started off.
“And I’m here,” Logan chimed in.
“And Logan’s here. We needed an extra set of hands and Marcus was busy.”
“Is this what guests of Andretti do? Help run errands.” Logan laughed.
“Well, you’re technically mine. So yes, you will run errands for us today.” Kyle teased.
“Spent so much money for a glorified Uber Eats driver.” Logan swatted at Kyle who jumped back with a dramatic protest.
“I’m doing this for your mental health, Logan.” Kyle defended himself as Colton laughed.]

“Well, you’re technically mine.”
“What does he have that I don’t? Is it because he’s from Florida? I’m a driver, I have money, I can learn how to fish if that’s what he wants.” Oscar ranted. “If he was with me, I’d never have him run errands. He could relax, go to the beach, and do whatever he wanted.”
“Maybe he likes doing those things,” said Arthur, earning himself a glare. “I’m just saying! Maybe he likes helping out.”
“He’s supposed to be relaxing.” Oscar pouted, balancing a cup of water on the armchair of Charles’s apartment. After his home race joke, they’ve been having “family dinner” with Max, Leo, and Ollie and sometimes Arthur joins.
“It seems like he’s happy. So you shouldn’t worry too much” Ollie moved so Leo could climb on his lap.
“I know. It’s just… I just feel worried I guess.”
“Are you worried or are you jealous?” Sometimes Oscar forgets that Max is incredibly perceptive.
“Jealous? Why would I be jealous?” That only earned him incredulous looks from the rest of the room.

Logan💙
Oscar
Are you just running errands for them?
Logan💙
A little bit
The teams busy with the charity event and Kyle and Colton have media
Oscar
I thought you were meant to be relaxing
Logan💙
You know me
I can’t just lie down
Besides I really like it and the teams genuinely wonderful
Oscar
How is Andretti?
Logan💙
Really nice
It’s a team run by drivers so they just understand you more
Also, it’s been so long since I’ve grilled so it was fun to re-learn how to do it
Oscar
How are Kyle and Colton?
Logan💙
They’re wonderful!
Kyle and Colton rented a motor home so I’m staying with them
We went bar hopping a couple days ago
Bad idea
Was so hungover 😭
Went to dinner with the drivers today
Oscar
Who was at dinner?
Logan💙
The whole grid
Apparently there was a mix up with the reservations and they had all the drivers in a large private room instead of separate tables for each team
Oscar
😧
How was that?
Logan💙
It was actually really fun
I didn’t think a lot of the drivers would talk to me
But it was great
Pato talked about his dog, Alex talked about jury duty
David showed me his meme folder
Oscar
I’m glad everyone's been great to you
I was really worried about the whole auction thing
Logan💙
Yeah I was too
Oscar
Totally understand if you don’t want to answer
But do you like Indycar more than F1?
Logan💙
I love F1 and everything about it but everyone in Indycar is just so nice and welcoming. Like I got lost on my way walking to the restaurant and the guys from Penske offered me a ride.
I don’t want to be ungrateful about my opportunity to race in F1 but I don’t think I’ll ever feel like I belong
***
You’re losing him. If you had just bid, he’d be yours.
Oscar curled up on his bed scrolling through the photos Logan had sent.
-A photo of the airfield he and Romain were flying from and an aerial view of the fields below
| “Got to see IMS from above!”
-A selfie of him with all the Penske drivers and Josef Newgarden behind the wheel
|“They’re all so cool. If Will Power ever decides to lead a cult, I will join it.”
-A photo of everyone at dinner with him in between Kyle and David and across from Pato
| “They’re all so nice!”
-A photo of Alex Palou’s DHL pride livery.
|“Do you think Williams will ever let me run a Pride livery? What about a Bi livery since we can just use the Williams blue?”
-A dramatic crying hamster with the LS2 hat.
|“David found this for me. I’m sending this to James next time he doesn’t give me upgrades.”
-A photo of Logan with Norbi, Pato’s corgi.
|“He’s so cute and he loves me!”
-A photo of Kyle, Colton, and Logan squeezed onto a bed with Alexander Rossi in the background.
|"Rossi has this massage bed. I'm getting this when I come back."
Oscar always knew that Indycar’s environment was different. Some drivers had remarked that PR was less strict and drivers felt more relaxed when it comes to their media duties. He heard a lot of drivers were very good friends off track as well. Pato was good friends with Felix, Alexander Rossi had a podcast with James Hinchcliffe, everyone seemed to get along better.
He knew Logan wasn’t getting that in F1. The rigidity of everything, the strict media, how Logan seemed to never fit in the way Oscar did. He knew Logan got along well with Alex and George and Jenson but this was different. He was clicking with everyone in Indycar. Heck, he was in bed with Kyle and Colton! That photo sent Oscar's blood pressure skyrocketing through the roof.
I could buy a massage bed and Logan can lay in it with me.

@logansargeant
Thank you for inviting me! @Andrettiindy
| @patriciooward
looking hot 🔥
| @davidmalukas
Nice to see you trading in the team kit for once
Oscar was going to drown himself in his hotel bathtub. Logan’s post was of him in a cream linen button up, jeans, and a silver chain. Logan had never dressed like that in front of Oscar. From Oscar's understanding, Logan's closet consisted of black and gray t-shirts, the occasional button down, and his team kit. He didn't even know Logan knew what linen was, but obviously he was wrong, which seems to be the trend for the past week.
Oscar must be going insane. He felt like he was going insane. His mind was racing, his heart had an ache that felt like it was being stepped on by an elephant. He was confused and dizzy and it felt like nothing in the world made sense.
Logan was thriving and happy, happier than Oscar has seen him ever be in F1. He was getting invited to dinners and outings and the drivers were so friendly to him, friendlier than any driver in F1 had ever been.
But I'm not there. Is Logan fine with that? Is he that happy even though I'm not there?
🧡 F1 + Indy 🧡
Oscar
How's Logan?
Lando
Why are you asking this chat?
go ask him yourself
Oscar
he will always say he's fine
I just want to make sure
Lando
Jealous

Alexander Rossi
I imagine you'd visiting prefer Andretti over Arrow McLaren
Lando

Oscar
Will someone just tell me that Logan is okay?
Pato O’Ward
He seemed fine?
He was really talkative at dinner
Walked Norbi, Diane, and Brunner for us this morning
We went shopping together for that cute outfit he wore
Oscar
He never goes shopping with me...
Did he talk about me?
I know Kyle “won” him
But why are you guys borrowing him?
Pato O’Ward

Also Norbi is really attached to him
It’s kind of upsetting
Alexander Rossi
He needed an outfit for his date today
Oscar

Alexander Rossi
Why are you upset?
Nolan
Homophobic?
Lando
We are not homophobic!
I am literally gay!
Pato O’Ward

Oscar
I’m not homophobic
I’m gay too
Just surprised Logan didn’t tell me he was going on a date with Kyle
I know Logan's really hot but why Kyle
Alexander Rossi

Oscar
Logan is stunning
He is everyone’s type!
Nolan
So is the issue that you’re not his type?
Pato O’Ward

Lando
It’s rude to kick someone when they’re down
Oscar
I’m not into him
Alexander Rossi

[photo of Oscar curled up in his driver room swiping through photos of Logan]
Nolan

Oscar
😭
What does Kyle have that I don’t?
I’m a driver too!
I have money!
I’ve also known Logan for a very long time!
What is it?
Is it his hair because I will cut my hair?
Alexander Rossi
This is sad
Pato O’Ward
Screams Desperate
Oscar
You’re also McLaren drivers
You should be on my side
Sabotage the date!
Lando
Was not expecting this side of you
Oscar
Shut up! 😭
I try so hard and I just want to be with him
And I’m losing him to some guy in Florida
Nolan
Kyle’s very nice
And really thoughtful
Oscar
I can be nice and thoughtful
Nolan
Didn’t you forget to wish him happy birthday on Instagram last year?
But you remembered Lando’s birthday
[screenshot]
Oscar
That was an accident
I was drunk on New Years Eve
I can change
I can be better for him
Pato O’Ward
It is nice that he is befriending everyone on the grid
There's rumors he might join Indycar
Oscar
He's not joining!
He's staying in F1
Pato O’Ward
Aww
But I like him here
Oscar
You can't have him
Alexander Rossi
because you want him?
Oscar
No
It's just that F1 is his dream
I don't want him to settle for anything less
Lando
This is some delulu behavior
Oscar
He is my friend
Is it wrong to want my friend to succeed??
Nolan
But what if he's happier in Indycar?
Oscar
he won't be
Nolan
He has his best friend here
He's welcomed here
Whatever team he goes to could treat him better
Oscar
...
We could always have him drive the #6 Arrow McLaren
Nolan
😧😭🥺
Alexander Rossi
You'd like seeing him in papaya wouldn't you
or do you only like him in #81 papaya
Besides, we never said he was going on a date with Kyle
Oscar
...
I hate you all
Lando
Oscar just stood up and cheered
Oscar
shut up
Pato O’Ward
Kyle and a couple others are going to a gay bar
We want to set Logan up
He was talking about how he was looking for a boyfriend
Said something about his type not being into him
Oscar
Who?
Who isn't into him?
I'll fight him
Pato O’Ward
He didn't say a name but his description was:
a driver, kind, brown hair, cute eyes, would like to binge watch TV with him, non-European, known each other for a while
Oscar
That could be anyone
Pato O’Ward
...
Alexander Rossi
...
Nolan
...
Lando
and yet you ask what you're doing wrong?
It's you!
He likes you!
Oscar
Me!
Pato O’Ward
yes
Alexander Rossi
yes
Nolan
yes
****
Oscar waited until he got back to his apartment and took a nap before he planned to call Logan. He was already acting like a raging lunatic, there was no reason to act like that when talking to Logan.
Logan's jacket was thrown over the couch and the blue and white blanket he curled up with for movie nights was in a pile at the end of the soda. The bergamot candle he bought for Oscar's apartment sat on the coffee table, the wicks would need to be re-trimmed before they lit it for the next movie night. Oscar felt homesick looking around his apartment, which made him feel more insane because this was his home. The apartment was always cold because Logan ran hot and hugging Logan was equivalent to hugging a hot pack.
Oscar pulled the blanket over himself, inhaling the floral, woody scent of Logan's cologne. His chest hurt, his eyes stung, and it felt so hard to breathe, Oscar wondered if he was having a heart attack.
‘I just realized I love him and that he might like me. They're going to take him from me.’
"Hello, Oscar?" A voice called out, Logan's voice.
Oscar poked his head out from the blanket to see he had accidentally pressed 'FaceTime'.
"Oscar? What happened?" Logan sounded so concerned it made Oscar cry all over again. It was so embarrassing. He wasn't the one losing his seat or his place in this sport. No, he was crying over a crush because he was dumb and his wonderful crush, who was an angel on earth and was going through all that awful stuff, was worried about him.
"Is everything alright? Oscar? What's wrong?" Logan sounded so frantic. "Hey, it's okay. Everything will be okay. No one died right?"
Oscar sniffled, pulling on the blanket to wipe his eyes. "No, no one died. I'm okay. Sorry for that."
"It's okay, just tell me what happened."
“Are you going to Indycar?” Oscar braced himself for the response.
Logan’s eyes seemed to widen before he gave an awkward smile. “I don’t know to be honest. I’ve gotten offers from Indycar but I would really like to stay in F1. I think I’d miss you too much if I was in the States all the time.”
If Oscar’s heart could dance, it would be doing the flamenco right now. “I-I think I’d miss you too.”
“Why are you asking?” Logan sat up on the couch, allowing Oscar to see the light blue linen set Logan was wearing with the first two buttons left unbuttoned.
Oscar felt like he was going to be condemned to hell for how he was looking at Logan - pale smooth skin against the blue linen, a silver chain laying over the gentle curves of his collar bone, and the murderous intent to claw out the throats of any man who could ogle at him in that night club. Oscar felt his throat go dry.
Kyle and a couple others are going to a gay bar
We want to set Logan up
He was talking about how he was looking for a boyfriend
Said something about his type not being into him
“What are you doing tonight?” He needed to know, to confirm that Logan really was going to that bar. That if Oscar did not throw himself on the ground and sacrifice his dignity right here and now, Logan truly would be gone forever.
”I’m going to this gay bar with a couple of the guys. Kyle, Colton, the McLaren guys, David, and I believe Scott and Josef might be joining us as well. Pato and Kyle were really excited about it and picked out this outfit for me.” Logan grinned when he talked about the shopping trip.
Oscar bit his bottom lip. So they weren’t lying about going to a bar and looking for a boyfriend for Logan. Some tall, American guy that would dance with Logan with his hands around Logan’s slim waist and his mouth on— “Please don’t go!”
Logan was quite taken aback by the outburst. “What?”
Logan was already going to be taken from him on the grid, ripped away from his F1 dreams by a team that couldn’t care less about him. If a nice American guy claims him, Oscar might never see him again. His best friend, shipped off to Indycar, taken care of by a guy that was not Oscar, waking up next to a guy that was not Oscar.
”I love you.” Oscar felt like he had run a marathon with how fast his heart was beating. “I love you, Logan. More than anything else in the world, I love you. I should have bid on you. We could have gone to Australia and seen the ocean. I should have told you sooner but I just, I just…” He took in deep breaths after deep breaths, his heart and lungs felt unable to process the sheer amount of love and affection he needed to express.
”Hey, Oscar,” Logan said in his soft gentle voice. “It’s okay, deep breaths okay?”
Oscar’s breathing evened out as he smushed his face into the couch, trying to regain his bearing.
“That’s it. Are you feeling better now?” Logan soothed.
Oscar nodded, his chin still resting on the couch as he looked into the camera. “Yeah.” That was so embarrassing. Who confesses like that?
Logan awkwardly laughed. “Good, I’d hate for my boyfriend to have worked himself into a panic attack over a confession.”
Oscar’s eyes widened, “Boyfriend?”
”Um, yeah, boyfriend.” Logan started to look a little panicked. “Unless you don’t want to be boyfriends, that’s okay. I took it a bit fast, didn’t I? We can just be friends and see where we go from there. Or we could-“
”I want to be your husband. I want to be with you forever.” Oscar blurted out. Too fast? Oscar felt it was too slow. A shared apartment in Monaco, a house in Britain, and a home in Indianapolis where he could wake up to Logan in their bed and come home to Logan lounging on the couch.
”You haven’t even proposed yet, so that is not happening. I want a ring and the whole thing that goes with it.” Logan laughed. “Boyfriends for now should be fine, but we can talk about it when I come back.”
“Okay, boyfriends.” The words sounded weird, like they weren’t enough, like they could be and should be so much more.
”Anyways, it’s time for me to get going. Pato and the others are coming soon.” Logan started to get up.
Oscar’s heart started to sink. “You’re still going? What if someone tries to get with you? We haven’t even started dating yet, you’re practically fair game for everyone there with eyes. What if Kyle wants to get with you?”
Logan looked at Oscar like he had grown two heads. “Kyle is dating Colton, he is very clearly dating Colton. Why do you think I was staying at Colton’s home? Besides, I promised the guys I would go since I’ll be back in Europe soon. You don’t need to worry about it Oscar, even if everyone else wants me, I would only want you.” Logan winked.
Oscar blushed intensely before burying his head into the sofa. “You can’t just say things like that.”
“You’re my boyfriend! Of course I can!” Logan teased, only making Oscar’s face become redder and redder. “Anyways, I have to go. I’ll call you later and we can talk more about everything that’s happened, okay?”
Oscar nodded. “Okay, I love you.”
“I love you too, Oscar.” The words came so naturally for Logan. Love came so naturally for Logan. He loved fiercely, and gently, and so full of compassion that it felt unreal for Oscar to possess some of it.
But he did it. He did it. Within the span of a 10 minute phone call, he had managed to bag the love of his life. He pulled the blanket tightly to him and squealed. Logan said he loved him! He said he loved Oscar!
In a couple days, Logan would walk through the doors all dressed up in another linen number and dragging a backpack and two suitcases, one of which was filled with stuff the others had insisted on giving him. Oscar would be waiting, ready to jump on his new boyfriend, to feel the bodyheat he so dearly missed in their freezing apartment. He would drag him to the bedroom and tell him to not worry about dinner or unpacking, they could all wait. What Oscar needed came first.
It was a few days before they flew out for the next race and Logan was unpacking his luggage from his time in the USA. Some would consider them to be moving too fast when Oscar cleared out half his closet in his Monaco and UK apartments for Logan, but they didn’t know what he knew. Which is that he loved Logan more than life itself and would do anything, absolutely anything, for him.
“Look at this!” Logan smiled and held up a pink and white t-shirt, on the back was the number 27 and the words KIRKWOOD.
Oscar looked up from his laptop and made a face.
“What? I love this! Besides the cotton is really soft, I might wear this as pajamas.” Logan folded the shirt.
“Why did they give you so many t-shirts? You already have enough,” Oscar tried to kick over the pile of clothes but was quickly swatted away by Logan.
“You can never have enough shirts, Oscar.”
“You can’t even wear them into the Paddock.”
Logan laughed. “That’s true but I can wear them at home.”
“Or you could wear nothing at home.” Oscar smirked before getting a shirt thrown at him.
“OSCAR!” Logan’s face was bright red.
“What? I certainly wouldn’t mind. Besides, I’d rip the shirt off anyways. Can’t believe I have to come home to another guy’s name on my boyfriend's back.” Oscar pouted. “You can just ask me for shirts. I get them for free.”
“I already have McLaren shirts though.” Logan smiled.
“You do?” Oscar didn’t expect Logan to be one step ahead of him, already buying clothes with Oscar’s name and number on them.
“Yep!” Logan pulled out shirts with O’WARD #5 and ROSSI #4.
“No!” Oscar lunged for them, falling into Logan’s trap as he wrestled him to the floor and sat on him.
“Gotcha!”
“Logan! Get rid of them! You don’t need another McLaren driver in this house!” Oscar kicked his legs back and forth like a kid.
Logan only chuckled as he bent down for a kiss. “There’s no need to be jealous, I’m with you remember, only you.”
That did not stop Oscar’s pouting. “I want you to wear my stuff though.”
“Well, with the way things are going, I could end up without a car half-way through the season. That way I can be your WAG and wear your merch.” Logan slowly got off but Oscar, being a bit of a baby, decided to lay his head on Logan’s lap and wrap his arm around Logan’s waist, burying his face in Logan’s stomach.
“What are you working on?” Logan looked over at the laptop.
WHY YOU SHOULD HIRE/KEEP LOGAN SARGEANT? was the title of the powerpoint.
“I had George send me his template from when he was pitching Alex for the William’s seat. I have all your data on there, your driving history, everything. You can use it for Williams or any other team or motorsport you decide to do. I-I just don’t want you to go somewhere that I can’t reach.” Oscar murmured, his face still in Logan’s stomach.
“Oh, baby,” Logan cooed, placing a kiss on Oscar’s head. “I would never leave you. Even if I do join Indycar, there aren’t any cute Australians named Oscar Piastri who could force me to stray. But thank you, really thank you for looking out for me. I love you.”
Oscar hugged tighter, “I love you more than anything in the world.”
