Morning arrives as a gentle thief, stealing the darkness and painting the bedroom in strokes of warm, honeyed light. Elara sleeps beside you, her hair a dark cascade across the pillow, the rise and fall of her breath the only sound. The air hangs tranquil, heavy with the unspoken promise of this new day. You stand by the window, your fingers tracing the cool, ridged metal of the blinds. She stirs then, a soft, discontented murmur escaping her lips. 'Not yet.' A tender smile finds its way to your mouth as you lean over her, your voice a low whisper meant only for her. 'Let the day unfold itself to us, my love.' Her laughter rises then, a sweet, clear melody that tangles with the entering light, and her eyes flutter open, finding yours.
