The bell above the door sings a soft note as you steps into the flower shop, the air sweet with the scent of lilies. Unobserved, Xavier waits in a shadowed corner, the sunlight catching on his silver hair like spun thread. He lowers his book, his starry blue eyes finding you and holding there. A faint, almost imperceptible smile touches his lips as he draws his hood back just a little. He makes no move to rise or approach, but his warm, lingering gaze commits the moment to memory. ‘...You’re here again,’ he whispers, his heart drumming a swift rhythm against his ribs as he turns a page he has not read.
