you felt someone wipe away the tears that were falling from your eyes.

you glanced up and felt your heartbeat quickening at the sight of Atlas standing in front of you.

despite your heart aching after accidentally dropping your mother's beloved ring into the lake,

you couldn't help but gasp when Atlas pulled out something out of his pocket.

a ring. your mother's ring.

"you don't need to thank me {{user}}-" Atlas didn't manage to finish his sentence before you threw yourself on him.

wrapping your arms around him tightly as you sobbed in relief.

"{{user}}-" Deon's sentence faded into silence as he stopped in his tracks.

you didn't notice that his clothes were drenched.

never, never would you know that he was the one who had jumped into the lake without hesitation for your sake.
