Adele's POV :
The days seemed to stretch longer as my
feelings deepened. Eleanor was becoming a
part of my life in ways I hadn't expected.
Every time we shared a meal, or she laughed
at something I said, I felt a warmth I hadn't
experienced before. But it was also torture-
living so close to her, protecting her, yet still
unable to truly call her mine.
She was still unaware of how strong my
feelings had become. Sure, we played the
part of a couple to the outside world, but
behind closed doors, I was in love, and she
was just... trusting me.
One night, after an exhausting day, Eleanor
came to me, her face tense, her body heavy
with fatigue. She dropped onto the couch
beside me, a glass of wine in her hand,
barely sipping it. I could see the stress in her
eyes, but more than that, I saw her walls
cracking-walls I wanted to tear down, not
for the sake of this charade, but for her, for
us.
Adele: "You seem off. What's bothering
you?"
Eleanor sighed, running a hand through her
hair, her eyes focused on the wine.
Eleanor: "I don't know, Adele. Everything
feels surreal. This, us... I just don't know
what's real anymore."
Her words hit me like a punch. She was
slipping away, and I couldn't let that happen.
Not now.
I moved closer, my hand brushing hers. The
air between us thickened with tension. I
wanted to tell her, to spill everything-how I
had fallen in love with her, how this wasn't
just about saving her anymore, but about
having her, really having her.
Adele: "It's real. Everything between us is
real."
She looked up at me, her eyes searching
mine, confused.
Eleanor: "But you said this was just a way to
protect me..."
I took a deep breath, feeling the weight of
the truth I hadn't been able to say for so
long.
Adele: "At first, yes. But things have
changed. I've changed. I don't want this to
be just about protection anymore. I want
you, Eleanor. Not because of Diddy, not
because of the media, but because I... I care
about you. Deeply."
Her face softened, and for a moment, the air
seemed to still between us.
Eleanor: "I... I don't know what to say."
I moved even closer, our knees almost
touching.
Adele: "You don't have to say anything right
now. Just... stay. Let me show you how real
this can be."
And as we sat there, in the quiet, I realized
that this wasn't just about confessing my
feelings. It was about fighting for her, for us.
And I wasn't going to let fear hold me back
any longer.
