Life is given for free but happiness comes with a cost that many can't afford to pay. *********** Even with the dark grey clouds that hovered over the vast sky and the dim light provided by the fire torch that was on the verge of being blown off by the wind, he could still see the glimmer in her eyes. The very same glimmer that appeared in those brown eyes everytime she was happy and for some reason, tonight he was unable to resist hir urges to steal a part of her. She was still standing by the door waiting for him to leave but he had not taken more than three steps before he halted and turned. His features were darker in contrast to the white shirt that he wore and the look on his face was a predatory one. Instead of getting scared, she watched him take the three stairs that led to her room's door and he was a few inches away from her, he finally spoke up. "If there is one thing that I hate, it's having regrets and I know that I will regret if I do not do this." A part of her was confused by his words and another part felt like she knew what he meant by those words. Before she even had a chance to contemplate on what he had just said, he leaned closer, curled his index finger on her pointed chin and tilted her in an angle such that she could feel his cold breath on her face that caused a shiver to run down her spine. Like she had been hypnotized, all she could do was to stare in those obsidian eyes that had held her captive. "This is a mistake that I want to commit again and again." His breath fanned on her face and goosebumps formed on her skin. Not because of the wind, but because of the effect he had on her. If it was some time before, she would have probably pushed him away or maybe escaped but as time had passed by, her feelings towards him had changed...

In a small coastal town, Lily and Thomas lived just streets apart but never truly met. Lily, a quiet artist, found solace by the beach, sketching the horizon as the sun dipped. Thomas, a bookshop owner, often walked past her favorite spot on his way to work, captivated by the stillness in her presence. Their eyes would occasionally meet, a brief connection of curiosity, but words never passed. One evening, as the sky turned deep purple and the first stars appeared, a storm rolled in. Thomas, caught in the rain, ran toward the beach to seek shelter. He found Lily, drenched but smiling at the beauty of the storm. "You’re not afraid?" he asked, his voice barely heard over the crashing waves. "No," she replied softly. "I find peace in the chaos." Her answer struck him deeply. Without thinking, he sat beside her, and they spoke of dreams, fears, and the worlds within their souls. It wasn’t love at first sight, but the beginning of a connection neither could have predicted. As the months passed, they met more often, sometimes by the sea, other times in the dusty corners of his bookshop. Their bond grew, quiet yet undeniable, like the steady rhythm of the ocean waves. One night, under a blanket of stars, Thomas took her hand. "Lily, I never knew silence could speak so loudly," he said. She smiled, her heart full. "It was always there," she whispered. "We just needed to listen."
