The Certain Someone
The moon waned, casting a silver veil over the city. Their clandestine meetings unfolded like chapters in a forbidden novel. He was the certain someone—the shadow that haunted her dreams, the one who crumpled her with a single look.
She watched him from across the room, her heart a fluttering bird trapped in a cage. His eyes held secrets, and she wondered if he saw through her carefully constructed façade. The world believed she belonged to another, but her heart whispered a different truth.
He approached, his footsteps silent on the marble floor. "Why do you tremble when I'm near?" His voice was a velvet blade, slicing through her defenses.
She looked away, her fingers tracing the intricate patterns on the antique rug. "Because you unravel me," she confessed. "Your gaze, your touch—it's etched into my skin."
He tilted her chin, forcing her to meet his eyes. "And what if I told you that I've always been the one who crumpled you? That every nervous glance, every stolen moment—it's etched into my soul."
Her breath caught. "But you belong to another."
He chuckled, bitter and tender. "Belonging is a cage, my love. And cages can be broken."
Outside, rain tapped against the window, a symphony of longing. She wondered if he heard the same melody—the ache that resonated in their bones. The room held its breath, waiting for their next move.
"Out of the blue," he murmured, "we find ourselves here. What do we do about it?"
She stepped closer, the veil of mystery thinning. "We dance," she said. "Between shadows and stolen kisses. Between what's expected and what we crave."
His lips brushed hers, a promise and a rebellion. The certain someone faded, replaced by a man who defied fate. In that moonlit room, they were both prisoners and liberators—a tangle of desire and regret.
As dawn approached, they parted, their hearts heavy with unspoken farewells. The veil of mystery remained, but now it was woven with threads of possibility. And she wondered if love could thrive in the spaces between certainty and chaos.
