What Is Life?
Third PersonPhora's soulful voice filled the air, "Take Me to the Moon" setting a dreamy tone in Alessandro's luxurious bedroom. Morning sunlight filtered through the floor-to-ceiling windows, casting a warm glow.
Heaven slept peacefully, her curls sprawled across the pillow. Alessandro entered the room, carrying a tray laden with breakfast delights. He carefully placed it on the bedside table and sat beside her, his eyes drinking in the sight of Heaven.
Alessandro's heart swelled with affection. He leaned in, gently brushing a curl behind her ear.
"Buongiorno, bella," he whispered, his breath dancing across her skin.
Heaven stirred, her eyes fluttering open. She smiled, her voice laced with sleep.
"Morning, papi."
As Alessandro leaned in for a kiss, Heaven's hands flew up, palms pressing against his chest.
"Wait, wait! Morning breath," she protested, laughing.
Alessandro chuckled, his eyes crinkling.
"I don't care," he whispered, trying to kiss her.
Heaven playfully pushed him away, her fingers tracing his jaw.
"No, no, no!"
Alessandro persisted, his lips grazing hers.
As they wrestled, their laughter mingled with the soft music. Alessandro's hands cradled Heaven's face, his thumbs tracing her cheekbones. Heaven's fingers intertwined with his, her eyes sparkling.
Alessandro's gaze deepened, his eyes locking onto hers. The playfulness faded, replaced by a tender intensity. Heaven's lips curved, her breath catching.
In this fleeting moment, time stood still. Alessandro's heart pounded, his soul exposed. His voice barely above a whisper.
"I love you."
His words hung in the air, unexpected even to himself.
Heaven's hands stilled, her eyes locking onto his.
"You love me?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper.
Alessandro's face flushed pink. He stuttered.
"I-I didn't mean to tell you so soon."
Heaven's face lit up with a radiant smile. She grasped his face, her touch electrifying.
"I love you too, so, so much," she whispered, her eyes shining.
Alessandro's heart skipped a beat.
"So, so much?" he repeated, his voice filled with wonder.
Heaven nodded, her smile deepening.
"More than words can say, I love you in every way, with every beat of my heart."
Alessandro's eyes melted into hers.
