The Boy in Gray Sweat Pants. Neighbors & Roommates, #6

Some people fall in love with fireworks. Caleb and Luca fall in love over coffee. It starts with one overnight stay. Then another. Before long, Luca is already in Caleb's kitchen when he wakes up-making coffee without asking, padding across the floor in bare feet, fitting into Caleb's quiet life as though he'd always belonged there. Caleb tells himself it's only temporary. He knows better. Keeping his distance should have been easy.
Instead, the walls between them disappear one ordinary morning at a time. Shared routines become shared lives. Comfortable silence becomes something deeper. The little moments neither of them notice at first slowly become everything. And for the first time in a long time, Caleb stops waiting for happiness to disappear. It doesn't. Set against the familiar streets of Kansas City, this heartfelt slow-burn MM romance celebrates the beauty of ordinary love-the kind built in kitchens, lazy mornings, inside jokes, and everyday moments that quietly change two lives forever.
Sometimes the greatest love stories don't begin with a spark. They begin by simply coming home.
