Hael's arms wrapped snugly around my waist as we sat together on the couch in our new home. The soft glow of the TV flickered in the background, but I was too distracted by him to pay much attention to whatever show was playing. He leaned in close, his breath warm against my ear as he whispered playfully,
"Why are you looking at me like that?" He asked
"Like what?" I said softly
He leaned towards me, closing the distance between us, "Like you want me."
I looked away, "That's not true."
"You don't want me Orenya?" He teased, "Don't you want to see Zola again?"
I giggled, swatting him lightly on the chest as I leaned back into his embrace. "Of course I do, but why are you teasing me about it?" I turned my head slightly, just enough to catch his mischievous grin, and the warmth that spread through my chest made me smile. Being with Hael like this, in our cozy home, felt like a dream I never wanted to wake up from.
