Through the Lens

Their story does not start in a studio, as it's supposed to be. But it starts on a rainy day. He is on his way to work, the not-so little studio he now runs with the help of many industry members, when he first notices him on the train. The guy in the train, cheek squished against the window, eyes lowered. Not closed, he knows it's not closed. But—eyes lowered but body still stiff, fingers clutching the material of his jeans tightly.Beautiful.Misery, he thinks, looks good on this guy.He keeps his eyes fixed on the guy, even follows him out of the metro after they reach the next station — both, surprisingly needing to get off on the same station — and right into the street that leads to his studio.He stops, pulls out his phone, and checks out the picture sent to him earlier this day.It's him.
