Sky Chandler, a powerful CEO, first captured Jules Parker's heart in high school with kindness and charisma. Jules idolizes Sky, but when their paths cross again years later in the unforgiving corporate world, the hero of Jules' past becomes a guard...
The quiet street was bathed in the soft glow of streetlights as Sky and Jules strolled side by side. Their steps echoed faintly, a gentle rhythm of two hearts learning to sync.
"Sir Sky... I have something to tell you," Jules began, breaking the silence. Her voice carried a teasing edge, one that made Sky glance at her curiously.
"Hm? What is it?" he asked.
Jules smiled, a little mischief lighting up her face. "I'm not working at Tee's company."
Sky's brows furrowed. "What do you mean?"
"You were fooled," she said, her laughter spilling into the night. "Tee tricked you into thinking I left your company to join his."
Sky blinked, stunned. "Why would he do that?"
"They wanted you to realize you like me," Jules revealed, her smile widening.
Sky shook his head, chuckling despite himself. "Those foxes... Grandma was right. We shouldn't associate with them."
Jules stopped, her hand gently resting on his arm as she looked up at him with warmth. "But if they hadn't done that, we wouldn't have opened up to each other."
Sky met her gaze, his usual calm breaking into something softer. "When I thought I wouldn't see you again, I couldn't take it."
Jules grinned. "Thank you, my honorable lover."
They parted as the night deepened, leaving promises lingering in the air.
The next morning dawned bright and hopeful. On the bustling highway, Sky's Black Knight, glided through the city. Inside, Sky and Jules exchanged smiles for no reason at all as "Harleys in Hawaii" played softly in the background.
Their first stop was a boutique Jules loved. Sky picked up a handbag and showed it to her. "Do you like it?"
Jules nodded, placing it back. "Yeah, I do."
Without a word, Sky instructed the employee to pack it.
"Sir Sky?!" Jules exclaimed, startled.
"For you," Sky replied with a proud smile. "Our 1st dieversary gift, our one-day anniversary."

Jules laughed, excitement sparkling in her eyes. The day turned whimsical as they moved from luxury shops to roadside stalls. Jules loved every moment, especially as Sky awkwardly balanced bags of everything they bought.
"What should we eat?" Sky asked as they walked. Jules hesitated, not wanting a repeat of their last debate. "What do you want?"
Before Sky could respond, a familiar voice called out. "Oh! Boss!" Sky froze. It was Ava. He turned slowly, signaling Jules to hide.
"Shopping by yourself?" Ava asked, raising an eyebrow. "Yes! Completely alone!" Sky replied too quickly.
Ava tilted her head. "But I saw you talking to someone..."
"Thinking aloud. About work," Sky added hastily.
"Right..." Ava eventually shrugged. "Enjoy your solo shopping, boss!"
As soon as she was gone, Sky helped Jules out of her hiding spot.
"Impressive, wasn't I?" he asked, brimming with confidence.
"Not even close," Jules teased, making his smile falter.
Back at Sky's place, they unpacked their haul. "I'll grab some water," Jules offered.
"No need," Sky said, handing her a glass with a smile. As she drank, he casually said, "Let's take a bath after this."
Jules choked, sputtering water everywhere. Sky laughed as he grabbed tissues to wipe her mouth. "Relax, I meant separately!"
Later, as they settled down, Jules turned serious. "Let's have an agreement."
Sky raised a brow. "Go on."
"Since we're dating now, I want you to be straightforward. No overthinking, no beating around the bush. Just tell me what's on your mind."
Sky scratched his neck. "That doesn't sound too complicated."
"And if you do," Jules added with a sly smile, "I'll give you anything you ask for."
"Anything?"
"Anything."
Sky nodded, agreeing truthfully.
The night progressed as they prepared for bed. Sky lay down, calling Jules over. "Why are you still sitting?"
"I'm coming," Jules replied, avoiding his gaze. Sky grinned mischievously. "Don't be shy, I just saw.."
"Enough!" Jules cut him off, her face flushed. "I'm going to sleep now."
"Didn't you say to be straightforward?" Sky teased. "I get what you're trying to say!" Jules buried herself under the blanket, face burning.

Sky tugged at the edge of the blanket, his playful smile widening. The night stretched ahead, the layers of their budding relationship ready to unfold under the warmth of shared laughter and a deepening bond.
