    Summary

    When Axel is cast as Lucas in Skam France, he thinks he’s ready—for the lines, the cameras, the chemistry. But as filming progresses and his scenes with Maxence grow more intimate, the boundaries blur. Between character and self. Between performance and something else.

    He tells himself it’s just acting. Until it isn’t.

    Author’s Note:

    I started this story when Skam France was still airing, not knowing what it would become. It was the first thing I wrote that truly mattered—and it taught me more than I can say about writing, rhythm, and character. Coming back now is about doing it justice.

    Some chapters and scenes have been reworked or removed, and some beautiful comments once attached to them are now gone.

    If you left a comment—thank you.
    Your words meant (and still mean) more than I can explain. You were part of why I kept going.

    If you like the story now (still a work in progress—because why stop before reaching true literature?), it would mean the world if you left a new one.

    This is a fictional story inspired by real events and appearances. The show is real. The romantic relationship? Pure imagination.
