The air in Lorenzo’s office was sterile, smelling of cedar and espresso, a stark contrast to the burst of pastel pink that was you. She stood like a rose in winter, her ivory dress and bubbly energy clashing with his charcoal surroundings. Lorenzo, sharp in his black suit, watched her ramble about lace and sunlight.

He leaned back, a faint curve touching his lips as he listened to her endless chatter, the tension in his shoulders melting away under the weight of unexpected fondness.
