I wrote Charioteer (Book by Mary Renault) gay fanfiction.
Here is the summary:
After the long shadows of war, Laurie and Ralph steal away for a single week in the countryside — two men chasing a little peace in a world that will never quite allow it.
They call it a holiday.
The villagers think them school friends.
And for seven days, under sunlight and rain, they pretend that’s true.
Between shared rooms, small lies, and quiet laughter, they discover a gentler kind of courage — the bravery of existing openly, if only for a moment.
A story of wit, tenderness, and the fragile joy of being seen, Two Men and a Week of Sunlight is about love that hides in plain sight, and the beauty of everything that lasts just long enough to matter.
