The world is beautiful.
That much you understand.
You loved the colors, the aromas, and the sights. They were all enchanting, almost as if you could sit down surrounded by them for hours and lose track of yourself, who you are, where you are, what you are. The world is engrossing, it's fantastical, and it's sweet. With adventures around the corner and love in the little things, you could say that you were enchanted by the world, you were content. You couldn't ask for anything more than what you had, it was perfect.
In your little home on a cliff by the sea, the view was perfect. You could watch the soft waves roll over each other all day, and with the light winds blowing over the grassy knoll you sat on it was like this scene was straight out of a storybook, it was wondrous. You could sit here forever and ever and not feel a single qualm about it. The fresh air and the calming sounds, the scenery was magical, almost. Like someone cast a spell over you and wished you happiness.
"There you are, love," Taeyong sits next to you on the grassy hill, bringing one knee up and resting his arm on it while he looked over at you with an amused smile. He played with the wedding ring on his finger, turning it around slowly. At the moment you held a blue butterfly in your hands, and you stared at it with such delicate features, he couldn't help but fall in love all over again. You leaned your head on his shoulder and sighed.
"What do they think of, Taeyong?" You continued to focus your gaze on the butterfly, memorizing the magnificent patterns on its wings that went beautifully with the royal blue. It stayed perched on the gem that adorned your wedding ring, not doing much aside from simply existing, and yet it was still one of the most beautiful things you had ever seen. "I wonder if they have worries like us, if they think about how their friends are doing, how they'll get home, and whatnot." Taeyong combs through your hair gently.
"My love, they're just butterflies," he chuckles. "They're not as advanced as we are, rather simplistic. They come and go. At most, I believe they think about what to eat next."
"You and your science facts," you pout when the butterfly flies away. Taeyong wrapped an arm around your waist and brought you closer, laying your head on his shoulder while the two of you looked up at the blue skies. Your eyes once again caught the butterfly, moving without a care.
