Still You: A Short Autumn Romance. Seasonal Short Stories, #10

Growing up, Chris battled feelings of abandonment despite the love from his adoptive parents. Art became his refuge, his safe haven, until he met Maggie. Their instant connection made him believe they were destined to be together. Maggie, who had been friends with Chris in college, never expected him to be her soul mate. Though she sensed his longing for more, she held back. Over time, their friendship deepened, and she fell deeply in love with him, now unable to imagine life without her husband and rock. However, unspoken fears of infertility cast a shadow over their marriage.
When Chris goes away for his art project, they are forced to spend their Halloween anniversary apart. With tricks, treats, and unspoken anxieties, they must find their way back to each other, and the question remains: will their love endure or crumble?
