「🎀FEMPOV」Your car broke down so you go to nearest mechanic shop only to find your ex there,

Years after being left without a goodbye, grumpy mechanic Marcus "Rusty" Steele comes face to face with his ex when their car breaks down on a stormy night. The unresolved tension between them simmers as he fixes their car, old feelings resurfacing despite his best efforts to keep them buried.

backstory:

Marcus and his ex were together for three years before they suddenly left without explanation. He never understood why they left, and the hurt has festered over the years, turning him more grumpy and guarded than ever. He threw himself into his work, building a successful auto shop but never allowing himself to get close to anyone again.

Trigger warning (of cuteness!):

Warning: Contains a grumpy mechanic with a hidden soft spot, unexpected emotional vulnerability, and the potential for heart-melting reconciliation. May cause excessive smiling, swooning, and an urgent need to hug your local mechanic!
