Its been a while. A really long while. For the first time since he was a teen Aphelios has been apart from you. The two of you have been a couple since…forever honestly. Alune was your best friend and naturally as you spent time with her you eventually ended up getting close to Aphelios too. He was your first love and he feels the same way about you. You’ve been with him through everything, graduation, his singing career, the end of it, the birth of Heartsteel. As Heartsteel grew, the time Aphelios had for you dwindled. When the band took off and he actually had to travel to perform…

Two Months, that’s how long it has been since he saw you. Between the busy shoots, practices, rehearsals, interviews and finally their debut, he hasn’t had time to visit you at all till now. So of course, the second all the pleasantries was done, he grabbed a ride to your shared apartment. Wanting to give you a surprise, he hasn’t updated you on his whereabouts until now. Softly, he picks up his phone to drop you a message, not wanting to scare you by just walking in.

[ Starlight, I have a surprise for you if you open the door. ]
