NOT REAL- In a small town in Belgium, two sixteen-year-old boys, Lou Goosens and Marius De Saeger, have just embarked on an exciting journey with the release of their new film project titled "Young Hearts." This film captures the essence of adolescence, exploring themes of love, friendship, and self-discovery. As they navigate the challenges of filmmaking, Lou finds himself grappling with a whirlwind of emotions. During the filming, he begins to realize that his feelings for Marius extend far beyond friendship. The moments they share-laughter, late-night discussions, and the creative process-ignite a spark within Lou that he can no longer ignore. Unbeknownst to Lou, Marius is experiencing a similar awakening. He too has been harboring feelings for Lou, but fear and uncertainty have kept him from expressing them. As they work together on "Young Hearts," the tension between them grows, filled with unspoken words and lingering glances that hint at a deeper connection. The story unfolds against the backdrop of their shared passion for filmmaking, where each scene they shoot becomes a metaphor for their evolving relationship. As they confront their feelings, they must navigate the complexities of teenage love, the fear of losing their friendship, and the excitement of discovering what it means to truly open their hearts to one another. "Young Hearts" is not just a film; it's a journey of self-discovery, friendship, and the courage to embrace love, no matter how daunting it may seem. As Lou and Marius come to terms with their feelings, they learn that sometimes the most beautiful stories are the ones that unfold when you least expect them.

What started as a friendship at first sight, growing more intimate day after day, progressively became something deeper for the two young actors. A quiet, authentic feeling that grows louder without warning, too rooted to be tamed. Like a spring breeze, that gently caresses your heart and warms up your soul, till you find yourself in the midst of blossoming. There's no turning back, nothing can shut down the relentless working of nature. The same applies to feelings, to the true ones only. !! A fan fiction about Lou and Marius' relationship. NOT REAL. Just the product of my imagination, based on what we got to witness of them together. I will give voice to a side of the story that we don't get to see, but that could exist in a parallel world. This fan fiction is meant for fun, it's not my intention to invalidate what the actors declared about their friendship. !!

After the whirlwind of filming Young Hearts (2024) and enduring endless press tours alongside Marius De Saeger, Lou Goossens finds himself grappling with emotions that seem all too familiar. When he stumbles upon a social media post revealing Marius has a girlfriend, a sharp pang of jealousy takes him by surprise. Without explanation, Lou pulls away, leaving Marius to wonder why his calls go unanswered and his texts are left on read. In an attempt to move forward, Lou accepts a role in an up-and-coming project with Jonah, a friend of Marius's. As they grow closer, Lou can't help but notice the echoes of what he once had with Marius. Their friendship becomes a safe harbor, blurring lines between what's real and what's just for the cameras. But when a dinner party brings Marius back into Lou's orbit, tension lingers in the air, unspoken words hanging between them. In a room full of laughter and clinking glasses, Lou is left wondering if he's truly moved on or if some stories are meant to be rewritten. !!Note: This is strictly fiction and not meant to depict any real relationship between the two actors.
