          I sat on the windowsill, staring deeply and sleepily into the night sky. The cold, refreshing air flowed around me. A wax candle sat with me on the windowsill, its light dancing in the chilling breeze. The moonlight cast faint shadows upon rooftops and chimneys. I would spend most of my time sitting on the windowsill, waiting for a messenger bird to return with a message of my anonymous love.

          Minutes later, a messenger pigeon landed on the outside of the windowsill. A letter was attached with a string wrapped around its leg. I gently untied the string, releasing the letter. I opened it and read it using the light of the moon.

"May you have the sweetest dreams tonight.

- Your love"

          I smiled. I stood up and walked over to my desk, and slid a small piece of paper in front of me. I wrote,

"And may your dreams be even sweeter.

- Your drowsy love"

          I used the old string to tie my message to the pigeon. I sent it off, knowing that we would both sleep soundly tonight.

A/N: OOOOOO I NEED TO SEE THIS ANIMATED-
tbh I was imagining the rooftop things (like the whole setting) to be in Italy or Italian styled houses since I'm obsessed with Italy)
the message system is so cute fjgujdkznxgyskanhdukvhkgm
