She laid on her side with her arm folded under her head, facing him as her eyes stayed focused on his dark orbs. He too laid beside her in a similar posture in silence as their eyes conversed.
“I’m sorry.” She whispered telepathically to him.
He furrowed his brows, “for what?”
A sadness seeped into her eyes as she pursed her lips together, “for breaking your heart.”
He smiled as he reached forward and tucked a hair strand behind her ear. The gentle light from the moonlight that filtered in through the window onto his king-sized bed was enough to lighten up her angelic face. “As long as I am able to see you, to see you smile, my heart is intact, Elle.”
Listening to his words echo in her mind, she felt herself melting under his presence. He was the kindest soul she had ever met.
