Chapter-43: Call

The next morning, Aaron woke up to the sunlight filtering through the blinds of his apartment. He stretched, letting the warmth of the sun wash over him, a stark contrast to the coolness of the night that lingered in the room. The soft rays touched his skin like a gentle caress, pulling him further from the remnants of sleep.

That hangout had been surprisingly fun, filled with laughter, games, and Daisy's infectious energy. It had been weeks since that night, and though he hadn't kept in regular contact with her, something about her lingered in his mind. It wasn't romantic—at least, not yet—but there was definitely an interest. Daisy wasn't like most of the celebrities he'd come across. She felt… real.
