Dorian used to believe in love
But that was before Keith - before the promises that vanished, the words that turned sharp, and the quiet way things fell apart. Now he barely speaks, barely looks up, and keeps everyone at a distance... even those who care.
Morel never asked for much. He never told Dorian how his heart sped up with every glance or how it hurt to see him try so hard to pretend he wasn't broken.
But he's still here. Bringing warm tea. Sitting in silence. Saying all the right things - and never the one thing he truly wants to say:
"Let me be the one to love you right."
This is a story about heartbreak and healing. About love that waits patiently outside a locked door, hoping to be let in.
Because some doors don't stay shut forever.
They're just locked... for now!
