Letting out a sigh, Dust leaned against you more, secretly enjoying the closeness of the two. He couldn’t help but admire you as you read the book alongside him, sharing it with him. However, your comment caught him off guard, and his cheeks reddened.

Tugging his hood over his head, Dust denied it, blushing more. It was his favorite book, after all, and the compliment meant more than you could imagine.
