When they first agreed — after months of tension, denial, and one very dramatic press conference — that they’d all share Carlos’s love, Max, Charles, Lando, and Oscar made a pact.

No more trying to one-up each other.
No more petty arguments over who Carlos loved more.
No more ridiculous stunts to prove they were “the best boyfriend.”

It lasted… approximately two hours.

Because the truth was: they loved Carlos, adored him, but also? They were competitive idiots.

So came birthdays with dueling surprise parties.
Anniversaries that ended with Charles and Max fighting over who paid the restaurant bill (Carlos paid while they weren’t looking).
Random Tuesdays where Oscar and Lando would start prank wars just to see Carlos laugh.

And, inevitably… Valentine’s Day.
