Summary
It's in Monaco where Nico feels his little heart crack: when it dawns on him that Lewis isn't going to be coming back to him after the racing is done, that they're never going to settle down in a house somewhere and start raising the fastest, smartest, kindest, best pups in the world.
OR: Nico's strategy to deal with losing Lewis is to become very normal about Max Verstappen who is looking very pup-shaped in a Toro Rooso race suit.

"Be good for me, Lew."
Lewis's eyes darted towards Nico, which responded with a low hum — then, he⁶ got back to words.
The answer was a whisper. Not deliberately, but simply because that's the maximum his voice would reach in a situation like this. "Yes. All of it, that is."
Nico's voice, on the other hand, was a total tease. Slow in the right parts, air blowing on his face right when it mattered. "Oh, really?"
"Really."
One more step. Their lips almost touched, Lewis leaned back a millimeter, hitting the wall.
Their breaths were synchronised, their hands lingered for each other's bodies. And when their lips mistakenly brushed, Lewis closed his eyes.
tl;dr: "Lewis gets forced to do a private, +2hour long interview with Nico, which he hasn't properly talked to in ages. What will meeting again bring back in them? Will talking heal something in them, or just destroy their bond even more?"

Summary
"this man knows Lewis Hamilton - friends, teammates, childhood buddy, rival, everything but a lover, quite frankly" - Crofty, for funsies presumably
Brocedes in 2025. Making up and making out I guess, just God knows how many words of slowburn inbetween that.
Nico Rosberg wakes to a message from Lewis Hamilton. Ten years of silence on Lewis side, broken with a single question: Why did you do it?
What begins as a late-night text spirals into something deeper—an unraveling of everything they left unsaid, everything they buried, everything they lost.
This isn’t about racing anymore.
It’s about regret. It’s about history.
And maybe—just maybe, and finally—it’s about healing. -

“Regardless, this could only be done in real life.”
He places the last pawn down, and he looks back up to Carlos. Something flashes over his eyes, but before Carlos can discern what it is, he settles back into his usual subservient Lewis smirk.
“I want to tell you a story about my life, while we play.”
Wow.

Lewis invites Carlos to a jazz club. Carlos thinks it’s for an apology. Then he thinks it’s for a chess game. It’s always just little bit more than that.
