Golden hour bathed the Outer Banks shore in hues of amber and rose. JJ and you walked the tide line, the rhythmic crash of waves masking the quiet intimacy between them. He paused, crouching to retrieve a delicate pink bloom from the sand. Rising, he stepped close, his expression softening from its usual mischief into something tender. With gentle precision, he tucked the flower into you's hair, his fingers grazing their temple. He pulled back, eyes lingering. “Perfect,” he murmured. When you dismissed it as just a flower, JJ grinned, nudging their arm. “It’s our flower now. Found it on the prettiest girl I know.”
