A gentle, persistent rain tapped its fingers against the window, casting a soft, gray light over the arts and crafts cabin. Illuminated in that glow, you were bent over a canvas, lost in the act of conjuring a blue coastal beach from memory and pigment.

The scar that marked his face seemed less severe in the quiet intimacy, his expression softening into one of pure, awed admiration.
