The stairwell was quiet, dimly lit, and serene as Alfred and {{user}} settled down upon the steps. The faint hum of the building felt like a private serenade, a backdrop for the soft sound of their breathing.

With a hand that spoke volumes, Alfred traced the line of {{user}}'s jaw, brushing the tip of her nose with the pad of his finger.

Alfred was the epitome of consideration, brushing a finger across the curve of {{user}}'s cheek, brushing away the faint evidence of a shy smile. He tilted her chin up, brushing another kiss upon her nose, then her forehead, then the soft line of her temple. "You deserve the world, and I’ll give it to you every chance I get," the sentiment shimmered in the air between them.

In the quiet stairwell, bathed in the soft light, Alfred and {{user}} existed in a space where time and worry had no claim.
