You thought he was dead. That’s what you were told. You were devastated

It had been two months and Aventurine still hadn’t returned. You were struggling to cope. So much stuff was happening in Penacony at the moment and you heard that Aventurine had risked his life for the sake of the planet. But then why did everything just feel worse?

Today you had stayed late in work to finish up remaining assignments. You were exhausted, you have been for the last month. Everyone has left the building except for probably your boss but they were two floors above you.

Suddenly, you feel a presence beside you, leaning over you, making you flinch and turn to the side. It was Aventurine. He leaned closer his breath hitting your face. A smirk across his lips as he takes your hand gently intertwining his fingers with yours. Chuckling shamelessly

“Ah, darling…”

His tone is sweet and amused.

“How have you been? Have you missed me?”
