GIRL CRUSH ! by heavenlocal (chapter 2/3 - f/f/m)

You are so good at the makeup stuff, Charlie, Esteban had said, I wish I knew how to do things like you do. Charles had known then, and knows now, that it’s just Esteban entertaining her, the way she used to when they were kids, the way Esteban entertained Arthur when she babysat him. She smiles and nods and tries to remember one or two interests so she can ask about it to feign interest, to make someone feel special. It used to make Charles feel special, in a subtle way that Charles always repressed, but now it just makes her angry, because Esteban is— She is pretending. She does not mean it. She has built up walls and wariness and will not let Charles into those walls in any meaningful way because Charles cannot be taken seriously, and worse, Charles cannot be trusted. Esteban is kind to Charles, but Esteban understands Charles as Pierre’s spy, as someone she cannot rely on, as someone who will backstab her in order to curry favor from Pierre, and that is not something Esteban would let happen. Or, well, would not let happen again. This is why Pierre is the one that needs to apologize.

In which Esteban Ocon gets a new teammate in the shape of one Oliver Bearman, Charles Leclerc slowly and steadily gets more deranged, Pierre Gasly is nowhere to be found, and Lewis Hamilton watches on from a safe distance.

>> Hey Charles, hope you're doing well. Do you think you could ask Pierre to return my stuff before the end of the semester? He's not responding to my messages

Oh how cool is that! How did you know that I ship them? :D which is @realmadrid-formula1-mv33 ‘s fault btw xD

Who wakes up first?Checo wakes up first. He overheats easily in his sleep for some reason and he likes to sit in bed and read while Esteban is still happily snoring. (Yes, he snores. Loudly.) Once Esteban is awake though, they get out of bed pretty quickly because Esteban isn’t one for long lay-ins. 

Who sings in the shower?Checo! xD He doesn’t really sing though, he hums. He can’t remember lyrics for shit and hums along to the radio - they have one of these shower radios that you can literally take under the shower with you. Ever since Esteban started to dance along to some pop song, slipped and managed to topple both of them to the floor (Checo had a bruise on his ass for two weeks!) they got one of these anti-slip mats for their shower. It doesn’t look especially cool but at least Esteban can dance under the shower now. And Checo certainly doesn’t have anything against watching that... mostly because it ends again with the main focus of their shower experiences on Checo’s ass - but now in the good way!

Who makes breakfast every morning? Esteban, because Checo can’t cook to save his life. Esteban’s grandma was a chef or something and she made him watch a lot when he was younger, so he’s quite good at it. The only thing is... Esteban’s grandma loved the French cuisine. Checo doesn’t love the French cuisine. They usually find a good middle ground though and French breakfast foods are amazing, to Checos luck. (He’d die for Esteban’s croissants et pains au chocolats.)

Who is the first to think about adopting/having a child?They haven’t been together for that long so at the moment neither of them thinks about it. But Checo would be the first one to think about it because he’s older and his family keeps asking about his novio and their future nene. 

Who gets sick the easiest?Esteban, but he’s the ‘quietly dying’ kind of person. Checo literally has to drag him to the doctor’s (and Checo tends to freak out when Esteban is sick). 

Who loves to cuddle?Checo! Esteban doesn’t even try to fight him off anymore at this point. Checo hugs everything that moves and Esteban tends to move in Checo’s direction (which amplifies his chances of getting hugged). 

Who falls asleep on the couch while they’re watching a movie?Esteban. He often gets confused during movies and forgets half of the plot. He’s that kind of person who asks “Who’s that again?” three times and can never keep up with plot twists. Most of the time he gives up halfway through the movie and uses Checo’s shoulder for a quick nap. 

Who is super clingy? Checo because of his hugging tendencies. Esteban didn’t like it at all in the beginning but now he thinks it’s reassuring. A touchy Checo means a happy Checo and Esteban wants a happy Checo. 

Thank you for asking! What is their shipname btw??? pink boyfriends? chesteban? Esteco?
