Five Hours Apart
It is highly recommended to read this after Ashes and Gold and Ink and Silence, as this story is interwoven with the first few chapters of Ink and Silence.
-------------------------------------------------
Five hours apart.
Thirty-seven days without touching.
And one moment that changes everything.
Orion has never doubted Jackie.
Not through distance.
Not through temptation.
Not even when the rest of the world tells him college is meant for forgetting who you came from.
But one late-night FaceTime call—meant to bring them closer—does the opposite. A misunderstanding shatters trust, sends Jackie spiraling, and leaves Orion terrified that the girl he loves might slip through his fingers.
When they finally come face to face again, everything is on the line: the longing, the jealousy, the reassurance they both desperately need.
Still Yours is a short, intimate bonus story about distance, devotion, and choosing each other even when doubt hits hardest.
No love triangles.
No games.
Just a love that refuses to break.
