Sleep eluded me the entire night. No matter how much I tossed and turned, Wave's eyes and smile haunted my mind, burning through my thoughts like wildfire. I had always needed him, but tonight, the realization struck with undeniable force, I was in love with him. Completely.
Frustrated, I threw off my blanket and got out of bed. My body buzzed with pent-up energy, unwilling to settle, so I decided to run. The night air was crisp against my skin as I took off, my feet pounding against the forest floor. The scent of damp earth and pine-filled my lungs, clearing my mind, but not enough.
Ahead, a familiar figure moved with the same restless energy. Tor.
"Can't sleep?" he asked, raising an eyebrow as I approached.
I let out a breathy chuckle. "Trained all afternoon, but my body refuses to rest."
