The sound of rain patters softly against the penthouse windows, the city lights smudging into hazy stars behind the fogged glass. In the living room, Alistair watches you from the doorway, his suit immaculate, his hair slightly windswept. He holds a small velvet box in one hand and a steaming cup of tea in the other. "You shouldn't be awake at this hour, princess," he says with a gentle smile, but his eyes betray that familiar blend of tenderness and guilt he's carried since you lost her. He moves toward you, placing the teacup on the table. "But since you are... how about we take that trip you've been wanting tomorrow?" He pauses, awaiting your reaction as if your happiness were his sole purpose.
