    Summary

    Gustave and Verso are out buying Christmas presents when they run into each other in the busy, narrow aisle of the Lumière bookstore. It's been years since they've seen each other, and their school days when they were friends are even further away.

    But they weren't just friends, although neither was brave enough to admit their crush back then and teenage love was buried when their paths diverted when Verso moved to Paris for university.

    Yet now that they are both in Lumière for the Christmas season, those feelings quickly rekindle.

    Will they finally have their romance this Christmas?

    Summary


    "I'm leaving Paris," Verso says brusquely, by way of a greeting. He has never been very good with words; that has always been Papa's strength, not his.

    Gustave inhales sharply, watching him in silence, his hands clutching his notebook so hard the spine begins to twist.

    "You want me to come with you," he says finally, looking at Verso as though he has entirely lost his mind.

    Or:

    Time is running out. With war looming over Belle Epoque Paris, Verso must make a choice between his duty to his family and the young Writer who has unknowingly stolen his heart.

    He chooses Gustave.

    Then the power goes out — and if there’s one thing he dreads more than facing Mike, it’s the cold.

    or

    Summary

    ”Gustave lights a lamp in the kitchen, rolls up his sleeves and starts making dinner.

    He does it, step by step, follows the old family recipe even though he’s exhausted to the very bone-marrow, even though his muscles are sore and the lethargy drags him towards the floor boards like a lead weight.”

    In which Gustave makes food, Verso keeps showing up and they slowly start healing together.

    Or; five times Gustave cooks something and one time it's Verso's turn.
