Between Shadows and Sunlight - Landoscar
Between Shadows and Sunlight explores the agonizing silence of a man in love with his best friend, trapped by a secret he can never share. Lando Norris, a rising star in the world of F1, has spent months hiding the truth about his feelings for Oscar Piastri. The problem? Oscar has a girlfriend, Lily, and Lando's heartache is the price of his unspoken love.
Lando (smiling through the hurt): "You were incredible today, Oscar. You're unstoppable."
Oscar grins, oblivious to the storm inside Lando, the smile that lights up his face like a knife to Lando's chest.
Oscar: "Couldn't have done it without you, mate."
Yet every time Oscar pulls out his phone to text Lily, it cuts deeper. The woman who's stolen the place Lando secretly wanted for himself. He can't compete with her. He doesn't even want to try-he just wants to keep Oscar in his life, even if it's at a distance.
Lando (to himself): "He's happy with her. I can't ruin that. But God, it hurts so much."
As Oscar heads off to meet Lily, Lando smiles through the pain, burying his feelings even deeper. The ache of unspoken love becomes unbearable with every passing day. But he hides it all-because being close to Oscar is the only thing keeping him together.
Oscar (calling late at night): "Hey, I miss hanging out with you. Lily's great, but we haven't had a proper hang in a while."
Lando's heart skips, but he knows the truth. There's no room for him in Oscar's life, not when Lily is already there.
Lando: "I'm good, man. Don't worry about me."
Lando is caught between the love he'll never have and the friendship he's too afraid to lose. Between Shadows and Sunlight is a poignant story of unrequited love, loyalty, and the price of silence. Lando's heart longs to be free, but his fear of losing Oscar keeps him trapped in a world of quiet suffering.
