Stories Between Us Anthology

Theo never thought of himself as lonely. Just responsible.
Nolan came to help. He was Marisa’s best friend. The one who always showed up. The one who knew how to sit in silence without trying to fix it.

It wasn’t supposed to become late nights in the kitchen. Shared meals no one had the appetite to finish. Wine poured a little too generously.
Silence that lasted too long. But grief has a way of lowering defenses. And closeness has a way of becoming dangerous.

Now they are bound by something they never named out loud. A secret that breathes between them. Falling in love with the wrong person, at the wrong time, in the middle of someone else’s pain is something else entirely.

Told through restrained, emotionally charged narration, this story explores longing, professionalism, and the ache of being fully seen under extraordinary conditions. It’s a slow-burn romance about connection without promises, intimacy without spectacle, and the kind of love that doesn’t need resolution to be real—only to be remembered.

Apollo never planned to stay anywhere long.
Luke never planned to leave at all.
Set against the quiet rhythm of farm life, this short story follows two Black men whose connection grows through work, proximity, and moments of unexpected tenderness. What begins as shared labor becomes something deeper—built not through declarations, but through holding, trust, and choice.
When Apollo is offered work on another property, he faces a decision he’s never made before: leave alone, or invite Luke into a life on the road to see if what they’ve found can become something lasting.
This is a romantic, short story about Black queer love, soft masculinity, and choosing devotion without needing to explain it to the world.

🎧 A cinematic audio short story meant to be listened to like a book.
