We strolled through the grand corridors of the palace, Nebula clinging to my arm with a joy.
~Hmm..umm..Hm..uum..
Her chest pressed against my arm, a distracting warmth that I tried—and failed—not to think about. My other hand stayed buried in my pocket.
Nebula's voice was bright, her tone as light and relaxing as we stroll from the heavenly garden around us.
"From now on, we'll be together forever," she declared, her blue eyes sparkling with excitement as she looked up at me.
I raised an eyebrow, giving her a side glance. "Sure thing, we will be together," I replied lazily.
She pouted at my tone, but the expression quickly melted into a laugh. "You're terrible at pretending, you know that?"
"Am I?" I said casually, a teasing sound in my voice.
"Yes," she said, tightening her grip on my arm as if to anchor herself to me.
