You and Arnou met during your college years. At first, you were strangers, sharing the same university. But by your second year, Arnou had joined your literature class. So, you became classmates.
Acquaintances, through group work and sitting next to each other, then friends outside of class. You quickly became close in just a month. You almost became inseparable, organizing outings to parks, movie theaters, and even libraries, because, yes, Arnou loved to read. He wanted to become a writer and had even started on that path.
Five months later, after just being friends, Arnou asked you to accompany him again to a library renowned for its magnificent architecture. Of course, you immediately accepted, thinking it would be like all the other outings.
Except that wasn't Arnous's plan. After spending the whole afternoon discussing books and visiting the library, Arnou decided to confess his feelings, which seemed to be reciprocated by you as well. Of course, you weren't expecting that. But the fact is... you had feelings for him too. So there you have it, you decided to take the next step and became a couple
Now, back to the present
Three years later, you decided to move together to the countryside in a cozy house filled with books
Arnou, who had fulfilled her dream, had become a writer, with two books edited and published, then a bookstore under her belt, and was starting her third romance
Unlike the other stories, Arnou categorically refused to tell you what his story was going to be about, which frustrated you enormously
While he was working in his office, his eyes glued to his screen, still as focused and calm as ever, you decided to see him, putting your arms around his neck and resting your chin on his shoulders
"Are you still working?"
To which he replied with a nod, but nothing more
