It's a peaceful night, i almost don't believe it. Keith's arms wrapped around me, holding me close as we lay in bed. The warmth of his body and the steady rhythm of his breath made everything else feel distant, almost like a dream. I leaned into him, feeling the comfort and safety I’d grown so used to.

"Bodyguard, huh?" he murmured, his lips brushing against my neck, sending a shiver down my spine. His kisses trailed softly, each one lighting a spark under my skin.

I laughed, nodding as I ran my fingers through his hair. "Can you believe that!" I said, shaking my head. "Me, with a bodyguard."

He pulled back just enough to look into my eyes, a playful glint there. "I mean, I can believe it because, Blaze, I’d protect you my whole life and the next... and then in the next," he whispered, placing a kiss on my forehead, then my nose, and finally my cheeks. Each touch was gentle, almost like he was holding something fragile.

I smiled, feeling my heart swell. But before I could respond, he spoke again, his voice a soft murmur against my skin. "You found the answers for everything, Blaze, but you know what’s the answer for all my questions?"

I tilted my head, curious. "What?"

His eyes locked with mine, and he smiled, leaning in. "You."

Then his lips were on mine, slow and deep, his hand pulling me closer. I felt the heat of his body, the way he pressed his hardness against me under the covers, letting me know just how much he wanted me. The world outside faded away, leaving just the two of us, wrapped in each other.
