Summary
Morning dawns. Aziraphale is snoring like the central heating kicking in after a chilly night, Bentley is dreaming of bone-shaped risk assessments, and Crowley—well, he’s wide awake, holding onto the fragile miracle of being here at all.
From a rooftop accident that left him blind as a kid, through to honeymooning with a husband that his guide dog believes should come with a warning label, Crowley reflects on the voices that shaped his path—and how one chaotic meeting on a train platform changed everything.
It’s exactly the sort of sentimental nonsense he’d mock—if it hadn’t happened to be his life.

Lovely slice of life with Crowley comparing his past to his present with Aziraphale. Beautifully written.

Summary
Twenty years ago, Aziraphale and Crowley met as teenagers while visiting Rome. They instantly formed the kind of horny, smitten bond neither would ever forget. They lost touch and haven't seen each other since that summer. When Crowley applies to work in Aziraphale's coffee shop after leaving his job as an architect, they're both full of doubt. Neither wants to ask if the other remembers, let alone admit their feelings. After all, who would still be in love with someone they met two decades ago? They turn, instead, to writing down their feelings.
But would they be brave enough to actually confess them instead of keeping them to themselves?

Summary
Love through the Ages.
It sounds so simple, doesn’t it?
For six thousand years, Aziraphale and Crowley have walked the Earth - bickering, bantering, circling each other like twin stars caught in orbit. Heaven and Hell gave them orders. Humanity gave them stories.
This is a chronicle of the love they witnessed and the love they learned. Told in glimpses and echoes, in stolen glances and almost-touching hands.
From Adam and Eve to Oscar Wilde’s last embrace and beyond, they drift through the cracks of time, watching humans dare, fight, suffer, and shine - for that elusive thing neither of them dares name.
Some loves end in tragedy. Some survive exile, silence, war, fire. And some - rare, impossible - end in sunlight.
This is not just a love story.
It’s all of them.
It’s theirs.

This is such a sweet gem of a story. Love seeing an outsider's POV of Aziraphale.

Title is a line from Arctic Monkeys, I Wanna Be Yours: "Secrets I have held in my heart... are harder to hide than I thought"Bookmarked by CuriousPupsicle

This splendid story reverses some actions and lines to get at the truth central to the romance between our favorite pair. It's like nothing else and I'm so glad I read it.
