THIS IS FANFICTION! I DON'T OWN THE QUEENS GAMBIT, OR ANY CHARACTERS FROM THE SHOW OR BOOK!
At 7 years old, his best friend disappeared from his life.
Now 19 years later, US Chess Champion Benny Watts takes a chance on a new friend outside his world of chess when he is introduced to Margaret, the quiet tattoo artist and photographer friend of Cleo's. What happens when he steps out of the black and white of the chess board, and into Margaret's world of color? Perhaps his comfort zone isn't a world of 64 checkered squares after all. Perhaps it's just wherever she is.
