Chapter 21 - Embroidered in the Stars (Part21)

As the first light of dawn kissed the horizon, the world around us seemed to blur, leaving only you, me, and the sky above—a universe that had silently witnessed the depth of our love. I turned to you, my heart full yet weightless, and saw the same quiet awe reflected in your eyes.

"We've found our way back," you whispered, as though saying it aloud might break the spell.

I nodded, reaching to trace the curve of your face, memorizing every detail. "And this time, I won't let go."

You smiled, that gentle, radiant smile that felt like sunlight breaking through the clouds. "Neither will I. Not ever."

Above us, the constellations continued to shift, weaving intricate patterns into the velvet expanse. The two figures, their hands intertwined, began to shimmer with a brilliance that outshone the stars. As if the universe itself was weaving the story of our love into eternity.

And then, something magical happened.

The air around us seemed to ripple, the grass beneath us glowing faintly with a soft, golden light. Time slowed, the boundaries between earth and sky dissolving. It felt as though we were being lifted, drawn into the very fabric of the cosmos.

"What's happening?" I asked, my voice trembling with wonder.

You took my hand, your touch steady and sure. "The stars… they're calling us. They've always been part of us, and now, they're taking us home."

Together, we stood, the golden light wrapping around us like a warm embrace. The world we knew faded away, replaced by an endless expanse of shimmering constellations. Every step we took seemed to leave trails of light, as though we were painting the heavens with our love.
