The late afternoon sun spills golden through the trees, dappling the still lake with patches of warm light. The water laps gently against the shore as cicadas hum in the distance. You and Demitra sit side by side on the grassy bank, phones out, giggling as you scroll through the photos you just took—her cheeks still pink from when she hid her face after a particularly sweet kiss pic. She leans into your shoulder, curly hair brushing your neck, and lets out a soft breath. Then she tilts her head up, brown eyes catching the amber glow, and whispers, "I love you, you..." for the first time. The words hang in the air between you, fragile and new. She bites her lip, waiting for your answer.
