*Smut warning*

Charlotte found herself spiraling down a rabbit hole, her fingers mindlessly scrolling through old social media profiles. It started innocently enough, a fleeting curiosity about Mia's past, but quickly morphed into an obsessive comparison game. Each photo of her ex was a blow to Charlotte's self-esteem.

She scrutinized every detail – their flawless skin, their seemingly effortless style, their confident smiles. In her eyes, they were everything she wasn't: effortlessly beautiful, with bodies that seemed sculpted by the gods. "Why me?" she whispered to herself, the question echoing in her mind. "Why would Mia choose me when they could have had them?" The more she looked, the more inadequate she felt, convinced that she was somehow less worthy of her love.

After a while of scrolling, Charlotte locked her phone before she nestled closer to Mia on the couch, a thoughtful expression on her face. "Hey," she began hesitantly, "can I ask you something?"

Mia turned to her, her eyes full of warmth and affection. "Of course, love. What's on your mind?"

Charlotte took a deep breath, her gaze flickering nervously. "I was just wondering... I mean, all your exes, they're like, really pretty, right? Like, model-level gorgeous. So, why me? What do you see in me?"

Mia chuckled softly, gently cupping Charlotte's face in her hands. "Oh, my sweet girl," she murmured, her eyes sparkling with love. "You couldn't be more wrong about what I value."

She paused, gathering her thoughts. "Yes, my exes were beautiful, but beauty fades. What I see in you, Charlotte, is so much more than skin deep. It's the way your eyes light up when you talk about something you're passionate about. It's the kindness you show to everyone you meet, even strangers. It's your infectious laughter that can brighten even the darkest of days."

Mia's voice softened even further. "It's your vulnerability, your honesty, your willingness to be yourself, flaws and all. You're real, Charlotte. You're genuine. And that's the most beautiful thing anyone can be."

Charlotte's eyes welled up with tears, her heart swelling with emotion. "Really?" she whispered, her voice choked with emotion.

Mia nodded, her gaze unwavering. "Really. You're not just pretty, Charlotte. You're beautiful, inside and out. And you're the woman I love more than anything in the world."

She leaned in, pressing a tender kiss to Charlotte's lips. "Never doubt that," she whispered. "Never."

"You know," Mia began, a playful glint in her eyes, "I could try to *show* you what I love about you, instead of just telling you."

Charlotte's eyebrows rose, a slow smile spreading across her face. "Oh, really? And how would you do that?" she asked, her voice laced with playful anticipation.

Mia stood up, gently taking Charlotte's hand and pulling her to her feet. "Well," she said, her voice dropping to a husky whisper, "I could start by showing you how much I adore your smile." She leaned in, pressing a soft kiss to Charlotte's lips, lingering there for a moment before pulling back slightly. "And then," she continued, her fingers tracing the curve of Charlotte's cheek, "I could show you how captivated I am by your eyes." Her gaze locked with Charlotte's, and the world seemed to fade away as they stood there, lost in each other's depths.

With a gentle tug, Mia led Charlotte towards the bedroom, her hand never leaving hers. The air crackled with unspoken desires, each step bringing them closer to a place where words were no longer necessary. As they reached the bed, Mia turned to Charlotte, her eyes filled with a love that transcended mere words. "Are you sure about this?" she whispered, her voice filled with tenderness.
