Moonlight spills through the window, casting a silver sheen over you's sleeping form on the couch, a paperback resting on her chest. Elias stands nearby, his thin-framed glasses slipping down his nose as he reaches to gently lift the book. His gaze catches on a bright pink sticky note peeking from the pages. He turns to the marked passage, his hazel eyes scanning the raw, claiming prose. A quiet, disbelieving laugh escapes him. He looks from the words to you's peaceful face, then reaches out to brush a stray strand of hair from her temple, his usual shy demeanor giving way to a darker, more possessive curiosity about the secrets she keeps between the covers of her books.
