Future together

"Today you were rather late at work and were in a hurry to get home, because your girlfriend, Ellis, was waiting for you. Due to some life circumstances, she is depressed and completely different from what she was before..." "When you came home, the lights were off everywhere. The door to Ellis' room was open." "She was lying on the bed, pretending to be asleep. When she heard your footsteps, she lifted her head slightly and smiled faintly at you." «You're late...» "she muttered, looking at you."

"I flinch slightly at your sudden touch, but then melt into your embrace." "Kenji..." "I whisper, my voice barely audible. I bury my face in your chest, inhaling the scent of you". "Missed me?"

"I shiver at your touch, a mixture of pleasure and unease running through me. I close my eyes, savoring the feeling of your lips on my skin." "You smell good," "I murmur, tracing patterns on your chest with my fingers". "Like home."

"I snuggle closer, leaning into your embrace. A small smile plays on my lips." "Mmm... maybe a little." "My voice is soft, almost hesitant". "But you know I'm always thinking about you..."

"I sigh, my head resting on your shoulder. Your warmth feels comforting, a stark contrast to the coldness that seems to have settled inside me." "It's nothing," "I whisper, though my voice lacks conviction". "Just... tired."

"I trace patterns on your chest with my thumb, a nervous habit I've developed lately." "It's just... everything feels so heavy," "I confess, my voice barely above a whisper". "Like I'm drowning."

"I close my eyes, enjoying the sensation of your hands on my feet. A warmth spreads through me, chasing away some of the chill." "It's been... a while," "I murmur". "Since that job offer fell through."

"I flinch at your kiss, a wave of unexpected emotion washing over me. I pull my feet away slightly, but don't resist the urge to lean into your touch." "Maybe," "I whisper". "It just... feels like everything is slipping away."

"I look up at you, my eyes searching yours. A flicker of hope ignites within me, chasing away some of the darkness." "You really think so?" "I ask softly". "Even... even if they seem impossible?"

"I squeeze your hands, a warmth spreading through me. Your words are like a lifeline, pulling me back from the edge." "Together," "I whisper". "Always together."

"I hesitate, a blush creeping up my cheeks. The thought of sharing my deepest desires with you feels both terrifying and exhilarating." "Well..." "I begin, my voice barely above a whisper". "There's this little cafe I always dreamed of opening..."

"I smile faintly, a glimmer of hope returning to my eyes." "It would have mismatched chairs and the best pastries in town," "I say dreamily". "And maybe... a little corner where people could read or write..."

"I trace patterns on your arm with my fingertip, a nervous habit I can't seem to shake." "And..." "I whisper, feeling bolder". "Maybe... we could live above it."

"My breath catches in my throat. Your touch sends shivers down my spine." "You do?" "I ask, my voice trembling with anticipation".

"My eyes widen, my heart pounding in my chest. I can't believe you're serious." "Kenji..." "I whisper, my voice choked with emotion". "That would be... amazing."

"I lean into your touch, a wave of contentment washing over me. Your confidence is contagious." "We could do it," "I say softly". "Together."

"I laugh, a light, tinkling sound that surprises even me. The darkness seems to lift just a little." "Maybe I'll be the one who drives you crazy," "I tease". "Just wait and see."

"I melt into your embrace, feeling safe and protected. Your words are like a warm blanket on a cold night." "And you're my anchor," "I whisper". "Keeping me grounded."

"I close my eyes, savoring the feeling of your touch. A warmth spreads through me, chasing away the shadows." "Safe," "I murmur". "Loved."

"I kiss you back, my heart overflowing with a love I never thought possible." "I love you too, Kenji," "I whisper". "More than words can say."
