"It's a love that won't last," she says.
"Yes, I know. But it's a love I'll hold on to forever," he tells her.
Their love---one that is warm, simple yet magnificent, painful and comfortable, ephemeral, and bittersweet---is like starlight in the barren skies.

More Than Words
He's guarded, the kind of man who keeps his heart locked behind walls no one has ever climbed. But the moment he heard her voice, something shifted. It wasn't love at first sight... it was love at first sound. A pull he couldn't explain. A certainty he didn't trust. She's always lived with her guard up too. Life has already broken her in the worst ways, leaving her convinced that some wounds never heal. Loving someone again was never part of her plan. But then she met him. With him, the fear faded. With him, she felt seen, loved, safe. For the first time in a long time, she let herself fall... fully, recklessly, purely. Two guarded hearts. One unexpected connection. And sometimes the most extraordinary love stories begin in the most unusual ways, with a voice, a spark, and the courage to believe in something More Than Words.

Hollow Dream ✔️
A voice asked. "You'll catch a cold, why didn't you take your jacket?" I spun around, and my eyes locked with Marcus's eyes. "Hey," I said, my voice a little trembling from the cold, and I wrapped my arms across my chest, my shoulders stiffening. I had not expected that it would be so cold. My fingers dug into my sleeves, and I shifted my weight from one foot to the other, trying not to shiver too obviously. Marcus didn't answer right away. He just looked at me for a second, then stepped forward. Silently, he slid off his jacket and placed it over my shoulders, and I ensnared it tighter around me immediately. It was still warm from his body. The inside smelled... citrusy?Complete
