Chapter Text
It was the first moment I truly understood.
Your hand, gentle as a promise, rested against my cheek, and your soft smile lingered, bright and quiet, as if it belonged to us alone. You were so close, close enough to steal my breath, and still just out of reach in the way that makes longing unbearable
I couldn’t imagine a day more perfect, only us, tucked away in a field of sunflowers, their faces turned toward the light like they knew where to look. For the first time, the world fell into place. My stomach turned into fluttering butterflies, my cheeks flared hot under your touch.
And from that moment on, my every thought was yours. Everything in me leaned toward you, and everything I did became, in one way or another, a small devotion to your happiness.
