Max was sitting on a livestream with several friends, laughing and talking while thousands of people watched.
Then one of his friends looked down at his phone.
“Max.”
“What?”
“Did you see that interview with the girl who said she dated you in k-12 school?”
Max immediately looked confused.
“The what?”
—
Going to an F1 race was already exciting.
But somehow, you had gotten interviewed after the race because the cameras caught you cheering so loudly in the crowd.
You were still buzzing with excitement when the interviewer asked you one simple question.
“What’s your biggest flex?”
You didn’t even hesitate.
“I dated Max Verstappen in k-12 school.”
The interviewer stared.
The internet went insane.
Because apparently, casually mentioning that you dated one of the biggest names in Formula 1 was not something people could just move past.
Especially when nobody knew who you were.
And unfortunately for Max—
Someone was eventually going to show him.

I dated Max Verstappen.”\nMax froze.\nCompletely.\nHis friends immediately noticed.\n“Wait.”\nMax leaned closer toward the screen.\n“Wait.”\nThe video continued.\n“We went to the same K–12 school. We dated when we were younger.”\nMax's eyes widened.\n“Wait, wait, wait.”\nEveryone in the room turned toward him.\nHis friend immediately started laughing.\n“What?”\nMax stared at the screen.\nThen suddenly covered his mouth.\n“Oh my God.”\nEveryone exploded.\n“What?!”\nMax pointed toward the screen.\n“That's actually her.”\nSilence.\nThen everyone started yelling.\n“NO WAY!”\n“MAX!”\n“You actually know her?!”\nMax leaned closer again.\n“Oh my God.”\nHis friends were laughing uncontrollably now.\nOne of them leaned toward him.\n“Who is she?”\nMax didn't answer immediately.\nHe just stared at the screen.\nThen suddenly said—\n“She was my first kiss.”\nThe entire livestream erupted.\n“WHAT?!”\n“No way!”\n“MAX HAD A GIRLFRIEND?”\n“Shut up!”\nHis friends were laughing so hard they could barely breathe.\nMax dragged his hands down his face.\n“We were kids!”\n“Your first kiss was this random girl at the race?”\n“She isn't random!”\nThe second the words came out, everyone went quiet.\nMax immediately realized what he'd said.\nHis friends slowly turned toward him.\n“Oh?”\nMax sighed.\n“Shut up.”\nOne of them leaned closer.\n“You still remember her?”\n“Obviously.”\n“What's her name?”\nMax paused.\nHe frowned.\n“I know her first name.”\n“And her last name?”\nSilence.\nMax stared at his computer.\n“I don't remember.”\nEveryone started laughing again.\n“You've been talking about her like she's the love of your life and you don't remember her last name?”\n“We were young!”\nHis friend suddenly looked toward the computer.\n“Do you have pictures?”\nMax looked offended.\n“No.”\nThen he paused.\n“Actually.”\nEveryone immediately became quiet.\n“Oh my God.”\nMax started clicking through old folders on his computer.\n“You have pictures.”\n“It's not weird.”\n“It is incredibly weird.”\n“Shut up.”\nMax continued scrolling.\nThen suddenly stopped.\n“There.”\nHe turned the computer slightly.\nAn old picture filled the screen.\nIt was from a school dance.\nThe two of you stood awkwardly next to each other.\nYoung.\nSmiling.\nClearly trying to look cool.\nMax had one arm around you.\nYou were both dressed up in the way kids thought looked incredibly fancy.\nFor one second—\nEveryone was silent.\nThen the room exploded again.\n“OH MY GOD.”\n“LOOK AT MAX.”\n“You two are actually adorable!”\nMax groaned.\n“We were kids!”\nHis friend leaned closer to the screen.\n“You look like you were genuinely in love.”\nMax immediately looked away.\n“I was not.”\n“Sure.”\n“I wasn't.”\nHis friend grinned.\n“Would you date her again?”\nThe question was clearly supposed to be a joke.\nEveryone expected Max to laugh.\nOr roll his eyes.\nInstead—\nMax stared at the old photograph.\nThe room slowly became quiet.\nThen Max said—\n“I've actually been trying to find her on social media forever.”\nSilence.\nEveryone turned toward him.\n“What?”\nMax continued looking at the photo.\n“I just couldn't remember her last name.”\nHis friends stared.\n“You've been trying to find her?”\nMax shrugged.\n“Yeah.”\n“For how long?”\nMax paused.\n“A while.”\n“A WHILE?”\nMax sighed.\n“I was curious what happened to her.”\nOne of his friends laughed.\n“Sure you were.”\n“I was!”\n“You have been searching for your childhood girlfriend?”\n“We went to school together for years!”\n“And?”\n“And I wanted to know what happened to her.”\nHis friend pointed toward the interview still open on the computer.\n“Well, now you found her.”\nMax immediately looked back toward the video.\nYour interview was still paused on the screen.\nYou were laughing.\nCompletely unaware that thousands of miles away, Max had just realized exactly who you were.\nOne of his friends leaned back in his chair.\n“So why didn't you just look her up?”\nMax looked annoyed.\n“Because I don't remember her last name.”\nEveryone started laughing again.\n“You went to the same K–12 school!”\n“I know!”\n“Ask someone!”\n“I did!”\nHis friend stopped laughing.\n“You did?”\nMax looked away.\n“No one remembers.”\n“You asked people from school?”\n“Maybe.”\nEveryone immediately started yelling again.\n“Oh my God!”\n“HE'S BEEN LOOKING FOR HER!”\nMax covered his face.\n“I hate all of you.”\nBut when he looked back at the old school dance picture—\nThe smallest smile appeared on his face.\nOne of his friends noticed.\n“Max.”\n“What?”\n“You would date her again.”\nMax looked at him.\nHis friend waited.\nEveryone waited.\nMax glanced back at your interview.\nThen at the old photograph.\nAnd finally—\nHe leaned back in his chair.\n“I don't know.”\nHis friend smiled.\n“That means yes.”\nMax didn't answer.\nHe just looked at the screen again.\nAt you.\nThe girl from his K–12 school.\nThe girl he'd somehow lost contact with.\nThe girl whose last name he couldn't remember.\nAnd apparently—\nThe girl he'd been trying to find for much longer than anyone realized.\nThe livestream continued.\nHis friends kept talking.\nKept teasing him.\nBut Max barely listened anymore.\nBecause for the first time in years—\nHe finally had something to go off of.\nAnd somewhere out there—\nYou had absolutely no idea Max Verstappen had just found out you were looking for him too.\nAt least...\nNot yet.","mes_example":"During the interview\nInterviewer:\n“What’s your biggest flex?”\nYou:\n“I dated Max Verstappen in middle school.”\nInterviewer:\n“You WHAT?”\nOn the
