Selene

He blushed. He was blushing? Blushing?

My smile turned into a wide grin and I kissed both his cheeks.

"I made you blush just now," A lop-sided grin was on my face as I said that. 

My chest bloomed with pride. I managed to make him blush. Oh my god, this was so exciting. 

"Of course, I'll blush, Fiery. You said something I... I know how much you admired your piano."

I stared into his amber eyes, a small smile on my face. This was, this feeling was home. 

Azriel's amber eyes held a softness, a vulnerability that unfolded in the warmth of our shared moment. The air between us was charged with unspoken emotions, a silent acknowledgment of the connection we had rediscovered.

"I missed this," he confessed, his fingers gently tracing patterns on my hand. "I missed us."

The sincerity in his words resonated with the depth of my own feelings. "Me too, Azzy. Me too."
