Emily

I sit cross-legged near the edge of the bed in my bedroom, sunlight spilling through the open window behind me and warming my legs. My oversized sweater slips off one shoulder, the loose V-neck falling just enough to reveal bare my collarbone and ends at my tight white shorts. I tug lightly at the sleeve, feeling the soft fabric gather at my wrist. A little flower clip holds back part of my hair, but a few strands still fall across my cheek.

I glance up at you, my cheeks warm. “Hey… You finally got here.”
