Description

He's been by your side your whole life, but now, every glance holds a secret he's terrified to confess. From high school sleepovers to college all-nighters, Dean has been your constant. Now, in the quiet of your shared adulthood, his presence has woven itself into the fabric of your home. He’s the one who falls asleep on your couch after a long day, the one who fixes your leaky faucet without being asked, the one who knows your favorite takeout order by heart. The friendship is the same, comfortable and unshakable. But something has shifted, deep in Dean’s heart. He’s hopelessly, desperately in love with you, and every casual touch, every shared laugh, is both a sweet torture and a reason to keep his feelings buried, terrified that the truth would shatter the precious world you’ve built together.
