—————————————
true to his word, there was a knock on elodie's door ten minutes later. she gave herself one last check in the mirror, her undereyes were visibly puffy and red even under the concealer, but she couldn't just leave him out there in the hall. she huffed, and made her way to the door.
when she opened it, she was greeted with timothée. he had a gift bag in one hand and his other being in his pocket. he gave her a sad smile, and stepped in once she opened the door further for him. he placed the bag on a table nearby. "i told you i'd see you in the-" she was cut off when he gently pulled her in for a hug, his chin resting on the top of her head. one hand rested on the middle of her back and another around her waist.
"i'm really sorry." he mumbled into her hair, and kissed the top of it carefully. she wrapped both her arms around him, engulfing the smell of his shirt. they remained like that for a while, swaying back and forth, not noticing the passer-by's watching in confusion from the hall, since she had left the door open. he pulled away, his hand moving from her waist to her cheek, forcing her to look him in the eye.
he took in the redness of the tip of her nose and her cheeks, her bloodshot eyes. the eyelash surrounding them still slightly wet with tears. he planted another gentle kiss on both sides of her face, rubbing away the stained mascara she missed when doing her makeup. "i'm so sorry, baby." he whispered, almost inaudible to her, and she would've missed it if they weren't breathing the same air as one another.
"what's in the bag?" elodie mumbled, earning a strange look from timothée, before he separated from her and handed her the bag. she took a peek inside, finding a wrapped cube and a small stuffed animal. she took out the stuffed animal first, observing it. it was a brown cow, with a little buttercup being held behind the collar. "i found that, on the way here. it was growing between the gap in the bricks, so i got it for you." she smiled, but immediately dropped it, remembering she should be pissed off with him at the moment.
"it's cute. thankyou." next, she pulled out the wrapped cube, giving it a little shake. when it made no noise, she unwrapped it to find a box. elodie looked up and timothée, who had shoved his hands into his pockets and suddenly found a strong interest in the floorboards. she opened it to find a ring with her birthstone inside. it was a ruby in the shape of a diamond, surrounded by silver almost spike-like patterns to hold it in place. she could see her own reflection in the silver.
"timothée i-" she began, but found herself at a loss of words as they died out on her tongue. "i don't know what to say, it's... it's beautiful."
"i don't want you to think i'm trying to buy your forgiveness, i've had it wrapped for a week or two now and was saving it for a special occasion. but, i figured it'd be nice to give it to you now." he mumbled.
timothée finally looked up to her, not really too interested in the oak he stood on anymore. when he did, she was only a couple of inches away from his face. "don't ever forget a date again." she spoke blankly.
"no, never. i'll set like, 4 reminders every day. every hour, actually-" she laughed and shook her head st him, interrupting him with a kiss. he froze for a second, before eagerly kissing her back. if it were up to him, he'd never pull away from her, not for the world. he'd be more than content to spend every second of the rest of his life kissing her in her dining room, with the front door wide open so everyone could see him with the girl who made him the happiest man on earth.
although, i guess you can't kiss your girlfriend if you decide to stop breathing. "i have an empty house tonight. marley won't be home till tomorrow afternoon." elodie spoke through kisses she couldn't bring herself to stop giving.
"say no more." she did in fact, did not say much after that.
