Summary
“Lou,” he said quietly. “My hand.”
Anne leaned in before Louis could answer, smoothing a thumb over Harry’s shoulder. “It’ll be alright, love.”
Harry frowned at her, impatient even half-conscious. “That’s my dominant one.”

Louis felt his own chest tighten. Of course this would be the thing. The bakery. The dough, the piping bags, the muscle memory Harry trusted more than language some days.
Or: Louis and Harry are happily married until a car accident leaves Harry facing a long recovery, chronic pain, and a body that doesn’t feel like his anymore. Louis copes the only way he knows how: medication alarms, humor, and a stubborn refusal to fall apart. Unfortunately, denial is not a long-term care plan.
Or: Harry changes, Louis cracks, and Patricia the shower bench becomes part of the family.
