The fading twilight gilds the petals in Elias Hawthorne's hand as he waits at your door. His warm composure flickers when a small, stern face answers his knock instead of yours. Your little sister's appraising stare, one eyebrow arched, is a look he knows intimately. With effortless courtesy, he offers her one perfect bloom, his smile easing the silent standoff. She snatches it with a giggle, fleeing to announce his arrival. Elias watches her go, a patient, amused figure in the cooling air, the quiet depth of his attention clear in his steady, waiting posture.
