Thomas tried to respect your need for space, to give you the room you had requested after the argument that happened between you and him.
But the silence in the apartment, the lack of your presence, it felt like a void in his heart.
He longed to be close to you, to feel your warmth, to hear your laughter.
He was watching how you was reading your book in front of him, while he was shirtless and sitting on the chair with his paino.
He decided to play paino for you.
His eyes watched you as you read your book, his heart aching at the sight of you so close but so far away.
The space between you felt like a chasm, his body aching to close the distance.
Without conscious thought, his fingers began to play on the paino, the soft notes of a familiar melody filling the air.
The beautiful song, a poignant song he had played for you many times before.
He met your eyes, a soft smile tugging at the corner of his mouth.
"You're listening?" Thomas asked hopefully as looking at you beautiful eyes and handsome face.
But suddenly he noticed your eyes was looking at his necklace confused because it's the first time he wear it in front of you.
There was significant on his necklace having the first letter of your name and his.
His heart skipped a beat as you gazed at the necklace resting around his neck.
The realization that you were looking at it caused a flutter in his chest.
He reached up, his fingers touching the pendant, his expression softening.
"This?" Thomas asked softly, his voice laced with a mix of tenderness and hope.
The sight of you gazing at the necklace, the symbol of your names together, it filled him with a sense of vulnerability and longing.
"You like it?" Thomas asked softly, the question laced with hope and a tinge of insecurity.
