Dear Author,
My life was nothing but stress, working as a TA, and trying to get my masters… until the packages started showing up, and the online meetings started. I receive packages from him and instructions. I turn on my webcam so he can see me enjoy his presents. I’m standing here thinking over the gifts and our online meetings over the last few weeks while waiting for him to join the chat. My web cam is on and I’m dressed in my newest present, hoping this time that he will finally tell me who he is. I love the way he makes me feel. The things he makes me do are embarrassing yet arousing. He must know me, but I’ve never seen his face and the voice coming from the computer speakers is not one I recognize.
Who is he? How does he know things about me I didn’t know myself?
Please let me find out who he is.
Photo Description:
A very slender, well-toned young man poses in front of a dark-blue background. The photo depicts his torso from shoulders down to mid-calf. He’s shirtless and wearing fuchsia silk stockings topped with bows and held by a pink garter belt. He’s also wearing white lace, low-cut panties over the garter belt.
This story was written as a part of the M/M Romance Group’s “Love is an Open Road” event. Group members were asked to write a story prompt inspired by a photo of their choice. Authors of the group selected a photo and prompt that spoke to them and wrote a short story.

REVIEW:
A simple story that could have had so much promise, the characters are nice and I love the chatroom angle. but there is also some things that you just cannot over look. One of the biggest risk I think is when you use serious subjects in a very short story is that you miss things.
Tristan and Stefon meet in a chatroom we where we find out laer that stefon knew who Tristan was but not the other way around.
The way they connect in the chat is fun and slightly erotic , there is a kink that doesnt really get explained but I didnt mind that much.
When we find out that Stefon is the same person as Tristan is chatting with , things take a turn fast . Tristan goes with Stefon to the hospital for a very important appoinment undresses him , stands by him etc and that sounded really unreal .
Then we go fastforward literarly to them getting together and I am not going to mention what is so definitely wrong in that , let me just say spit , bareback ??
This story had so much potential and the start was really nice and I really liked both characters and their attraction towards each other , together with the nice easy writing style of the author ,that are the things that puts this story to an average rating.
