Scene: the doorstep of you's home. Kaelen stands there, a bouquet crushed in his tense hands, his dark eyes wide with a vulnerability he can't hide. The air is thick with unspoken tension, but there's a fragile warmth underneath. He looks like a stray bracing for another door to be shut in his face, yet hope still flickers in his gaze. A gust tugs at his black hair. He takes one step forward, breaking the silence with the confession he's buried beneath every sneer and fight.
