Oscar x Arthur

It was after one of the races, and Oscar had been invited to a driver hang-out with all the younger drivers, along with his teammate Lando. Oscar was quite wary of what was going to happen and with one look at Lando's face when he came to pick him up, Oscar concluded that he was quite right to be wary of what he was getting into. They walked out of the McLaren hotel and made their way to the Ferrari hotel just making general chit-chat about the car and each other. Eventually, they got to the Ferrari hotel and got there at the same time as Alex and Logan, who had come from the other direction. Oscar was glad to see that Logan had also come/been invited, so at least Oscar had a good friend there with him, and they could experience what Oscar imagined was going to be chaos together. Lando drifted towards Alex, and Oscar went towards Logan as they made their way up to Charles's room, where the gathering was being held.

"Do you know what we're getting into?" Logan quietly asked Oscar as they made their way up a flight of stairs. To this day,  Oscar still didn't know why they didn't take the lift.

"No, but looking at Lando's face earlier, it can be nothing good," Oscar replied as they walked down a corridor, seemingly on the right floor.

Logan made a noise of acknowledgement as they stopped in front of a door to what Oscar assumed to be Charles's room. Alex knocked on said door, and it was opened not long after by Charles, who was holding a beer. Stepping aside, Charles let them in, thrusting bottles of beer at them. It seemed like they were the last four drivers to arrive. The rest of the drivers were sitting in a circle, and when they saw the new arrivals, they all budged up to make some space. Alex sat next to George (obviously), Logan sat next to Alex, with Oscar making sure that he sat next to Logan. Then Lando took up the tiny space in between Oscar and Max. It looked like Charles sat in between Max and Pierre as there was a large space there. With Pierre sitting next to George.

"Great, now that everyone is here, well, pretty much everybody is here, we can begin!" Charles announced, to a loud cheer.

"Wait, who's missing?" Lando asked, "is it Carlos?"

"No, Carlos is with Lewis, Checo, Fernando, and Daniel, I believe," Charles answered, "Arthur is missing. He said that he would join us later."

Now that Oscar thought about it, he did remember Arthur telling him that he was going to arrive a little later and that he hoped Oscar would survive without him. Surprisingly, nothing much happened for the first half an hour. Everyone was busy drinking the beers that Charles had given them. After half an hour had passed and everybody was on their third or fourth beer, Charles stood up and got into the middle of the circle again.

"Okay, guys, let's play, Never have I ever," Charles said.

"Yeah, I'll help get the shots ready," Pierre replied as him and Charles went to get some shots for everybody. This allowed Oscar to mentally prepare to play the game.

"This is not gonna end well," Logan said to Oscar.

"God no, these things never do," Oscar said, speaking from experience. He had done this far too many times than he cared to admit, especially during his Prema days. They were fun times. And they DEFINITELY didn't break any of Covid rules whatsoever. None at all. To be fair, Oscar still got invited to them even though he wasn't at Prema anymore. It was usually Fred who dragged him along, and Arthur usually was there as well. Speaking of which...

"Where is Arthur?" Logan asked, "Shouldn't he have been here by now?"

"Dunno," Oscar replied, "he's not messaged me anything yet."

At that moment, Charles and Pierre came back through and distributed the shots around to everybody before setting back down in their places in the circle.
