FLASHBACK:
Celeste ran toward Landon with all in her. She laughed, her arms were wide like a child chasing the wind without restrain.
She jumped into his arms with a joy that could shatter the sky. Landon caught her effortlessly, wrapping his arms around her like she was made of everything he'd ever sworn to protect. He spun her around.
Laughter burst from both of them, echoing through the campus courtyard. A few students stopped by to smile at them.
"I passed," she giggled breathlessly. "I passed all damn courses. I expected at least two Fs."
Landon stopped spinning, but he didn't let her go. He looked up at her, smiled softly, and proud. "I told you you wouldn't get any F. My baby gets no F except the one from me."
Celeste playfully slapped his shoulder, rolling her eyes. "Landon! Gross!"
"Just saying," he shrugged, then placed a gentle kiss on her forehead. "You worked your ass off. I'm proud of you."
