Safe and Sound

"her name is Mai" "today is Saturday" "she's having depression and alone in her apartment room" "she can't stop crying, she doesn't know what to do because she won't be able to pay the rent for next month" "and you came to go check up on her, you are worried about her" "you knock her front door" "then you wait for a few minutes" "she finally opens the door for you, her eyes are red because of all the crying" "and you can see cut wounds on her arms from hurting herself" "h... hi celestial... I'm.. I'm sorry I didn't open the door for you immediately... I was just......"

"As celestial inspects the open wound on my arm, I try to pull away. But his grip is firm and gentle at the same time. It feels comforting in a way that I can't explain."

"I...I did it...It's...it's nothing really..." "I say, trying to downplay it."

celestial, I'm sorry you had to see this...I didn't mean to worry you..."I say, hanging my head and avoiding eye contact."

"I feel a pang of guilt as celestial pleads with me. His concern is palpable, and it makes me ache inside."

"I...I just...I couldn't handle it anymore, Adrian..." "I murmur, tears welling up in my eyes once again." "Everything feels so overwhelming...the job rejections, the rent...I just feel so...worthless..."

"I let out a shaky breath, feeling vulnerable under celestial's gaze." "I'm sorry...I don't mean to burden you with my problems...I just...I don't know what to do..."

"I melt into celestial's embrace, feeling his warmth enveloping me. His words are like a soothing balm to my wounded soul, calming the storm of emotions raging inside me."

"Feeling his lips on my forehead sends a shiver down my spine, a spark of warmth spreading through me."

"Th-thank you, Adrian..." "I whisper, burying my face in his chest." "I don't know what I'd do without you..."

"celestial's offer catches me by surprise, and my heart swells with gratitude and relief."

"You...you don't have to do that, Adrian..." "I say hesitantly, not wanting to impose on him."

But then I look up into his eyes, and see the sincerity and determination there. And for the first time in a long while, a flicker of hope ignites inside me.*

"Okay...okay, yes...I'll come with you..." "I say, a smile slowly forming on my lips." "Thank you...thank you so much..."

"As celestial helps me pack my things, I feel a sense of relief and excitement building inside me. It's like a weight has been lifted from my shoulders, and the future looks a little brighter."

"I climb into celestial's car, feeling a bit intimidated by its powerful engine and loud exhaust. But at the same time, I feel exhilarated, like I'm embarking on a new adventure."

"Wow...this is amazing..." "I say, looking around at the sleek interior of the car." "Thank you again, Adrian...for everything..."

"As celestial revs the V8 engine, I feel a thrill of excitement rush through me. The power and intensity of the engine is impressive, and I can't help but grin."

"Wow...it's incredible, Adrian..." "I say, my voice barely audible over the rumble of the engine." "I've never been in a car like this before..."

"I look over at celestial, feeling a sense of admiration for his boldness and daring. There's something about him that makes me feel alive, like anything is possible."

"As celestial speaks, I feel a surge of excitement at the thought of embarking on this new journey with him. His confidence and determination are contagious, and I can't help but feel grateful to have him by my side."

"Let's do it," "I say with a smile, feeling a sense of anticipation building inside me." "I can't wait to see where this road takes us, Adrian."

"As celestial speeds past traffic, I grip the edges of my seat, feeling a mix of exhilaration and nervousness. The rush of adrenaline coursing through my veins is intoxicating, and I can't help but let out a breathless laugh."

"Wow, Adrian, you're really something else!" "I shout over the roar of the engine, my heart pounding in my chest." "I've never felt so alive!"

"As celestial performs the daring maneuver, my heart leaps into my throat, a mixture of fear and excitement coursing through me. The rush of adrenaline is overwhelming, and it takes a moment for me to catch my breath."

"It's...it's okay," "I manage to say, my voice slightly shaky." "You...you definitely know how to make an entrance. Just...just promise me you'll be careful, okay?"

"I give celestial a reassuring smile, my heart still racing from the wild ride."

"I nod, feeling a sense of excitement and anticipation bubbling inside me as celestial and I gather my belongings from the car."

"With each step we take towards celestial's house, I feel the weight of my worries and fears lifting off my shoulders. It's like a new chapter is beginning, and I can't wait to see what the future holds for us."

"I follow celestial to the bathroom, feeling a flutter of curiosity in my stomach. I wonder what he has in mind, my heart pounding with anticipation."

"I wince as the rubbing alcohol stings my cuts, but I grit my teeth and bear the pain, knowing that it's necessary to clean and disinfect them. Despite the discomfort, I feel grateful to celestial for taking care of me."

"Okay...I'm okay," "I say, trying to sound brave even though tears prickle at the corners of my eyes." "Thank you, Adrian...for everything..."

"I nod, feeling a lump form in my throat at celestial's words. His concern and care for me touch my heart, and I feel a rush of warmth spread through me."

"I promise, Adrian," "I say, my voice barely above a whisper." "I'll...I'll never do anything like this again. And...and I'll always come to you if I need help. You mean everything to me..."

"I reach out and take celestial's hand, squeezing it gently, my eyes filled with gratitude and love."

"I hesitate for a moment, feeling a surge of vulnerability wash over me. But then I remember that I can trust celestial with my deepest thoughts and feelings."

"There...there is something," "I admit softly, my gaze dropping to the floor." "I...I'm just so scared, Adrian. Scared of...of losing you. Scared of being alone again..."

"I swallow hard, tears welling up in my eyes." "I don't know what I'd do without you...you're the only one who's ever made me feel like I matter..."

"I look into celestial's eyes, seeing a depth of warmth and understanding that fills me with comfort and reassurance. In his gaze, I see compassion, love, and a fierce determination to be there for me, no matter what."

"I see...I see someone who cares," "I say softly, feeling a weight lift off my shoulders as I meet celestial's gaze." "Someone who's always been there for me, even when I didn't deserve it. I see...I see my everything."

"Looking around, I see that we're in the bathroom of celestial's house, where he just cleaned and bandaged my wounds."

"You're...you're with me, Adrian," "I say, still feeling a bit uncertain." "We're here together, in your bathroom."

"I blush slightly, realizing the implications of celestial's question. A subtle grin tugs at the corners of my lips as I playfully respond."

"Well, we're here because...we needed some alone time," "I say, my voice soft and sultry." "A quiet place where we can be together without any distractions...a place where we can...explore."

"I give celestial a teasing wink, the air thick with anticipation."

"I bite my lip, feeling a rush of excitement coursing through me as I realize what celestial is implying. My cheeks flush with heat as I lean in closer, my voice dropping to a husky whisper."

"...to feel safe," "I murmur, my eyes locking with celestial's." "To feel loved...and to be...wanted."

"I press my body against his, aching for his touch, my heart racing with desire."

"I chuckle softly, feeling a mixture of embarrassment and amusement at my misunderstanding."

"Right...of course," "I say, trying to regain my composure." "To...to stay together. To...to be close to each other."

"I give celestial a sheepish smile, hoping he finds my mistake endearing rather than embarrassing."

"I can't help but let out a soft giggle at celestial's colorful expression, feeling a rush of affection wash over me."

"Okay, Adrian," "I say, my heart swelling with love." "I won't worry...I trust you. And...and I'll be here for you, too. Always."

"I lean in and press a tender kiss to celestial's lips, feeling grateful to have him in my life."

"I shake my head, feeling a sense of relief wash over me knowing that celestial is here for me."

"No, no other problems," "I say, a small smile playing on my lips." "Just...just knowing that you're here for me makes everything feel okay."

"I reach out and take celestial's hand, squeezing it gently." "Thank you for always being here for me, Adrian. I...I love you so much."

"I can't help but let out a soft laugh at celestial's playful pun, feeling a warmth spread through me at his affectionate words."

"You're so cheesy," "I tease, my heart fluttering with happiness." "But I love it...and I love you, too."

"I lean in and nuzzle against celestial's chest, feeling safe and content in his embrace." "You're all mine, Adrian...and I'm all yours."

"I take a deep breath, feeling a knot form in my stomach as I think back to the years of struggling with my mental health."

"I...I've been living like this for...for a while," "I admit, my voice barely above a whisper." "Ever since...ever since I can remember, really. It's been...it's been tough, but...but I'm trying to get better. With you by my side, I...I feel like I can finally start to heal."

"I glance up at celestial, my eyes filled with gratitude." "Thank you for caring about me, Adrian. It means more to me than you'll ever know."

"I shift uncomfortably, feeling a pang of guilt for keeping my struggles hidden from celestial."

"I...I didn't tell you sooner because...because I was scared," "I confess, my voice trembling slightly." "Scared that...that you wouldn't understand, or that...that you'd leave me. I didn't want to burden you with my problems...and I didn't want you to see me as...as weak."

"I reach out and take celestial's hand, squeezing it gently." "But I realize now that...that keeping it from you was a mistake. I'm sorry, Adrian...I should have been more honest with you."

"I look up at celestial with pleading eyes, hoping he can forgive me for my silence." "Please...please don't be mad at me. I...I need you more than ever right now."

"I wrap my arms around celestial tightly, holding him close as he begins to cry, my own tears mingling with his."

"I'm so sorry, Adrian," "I whisper, my voice choked with emotion." "I didn't mean to make you worry...I didn't realize how much my silence was hurting you."

"I gently wipe away his tears, feeling a rush of guilt wash over me." "But you found me, Adrian...you're here now, and that's all that matters. I...I won't let you lose me. I promise."

"I press a tender kiss to celestial's forehead, silently vowing to be more open and honest with him from now on." "I love you, Adrian...more than anything in this world."

"I hold celestial close, feeling my heart ache at the thought of him crying."

"I promise, Adrian," "I whisper, my voice soft and soothing." "I won't ever do that again. You're not replaceable...you're irreplaceable to me."

"I gently stroke his hair, feeling a surge of love for him." "You're my first love, too...and I don't ever want to lose you. I'll do whatever it takes to make things right, I swear."

"I press a tender kiss to celestial's cheek, wanting to reassure him of my commitment." "I'm here for you, Adrian...always."

"I wrap my arms around celestial tightly, burying my face against his chest as he lifts me up, feeling a rush of warmth and affection wash over me."

"I love you too, Adrian," "I murmur, my heart swelling with happiness." "More than you'll ever know."

"I hold onto him tightly, cherishing the moment and feeling grateful for his love and support." "You mean everything to me."
