Downloading Romeo and Julian (A Near-Tragedy Near Verona)
Dear Author,
These young men have pure heart and even pure love. However, their respective families stand on their chance to be together.
Photo Description: An iron balcony rail, two dark-haired young men, a tender moment. The man above leans down to extend his hand, smiling. The white-shirted man below grasps the rail in one fist and with the other brings the back of his lover's hand to his mouth for a kiss, eyes closed.
This story was written as a part of the M/M Romance Group's "Hot Summer Days" event. Group members were asked to write a story prompt inspired by a photo of their choice. Authors of the group selected a photo and prompt that spoke to them and wrote a short story.
