You were 13 when Azure came up to you. He was 14
”Hey… I kind of like you..”
”Sorry… i don’t like boys right now…” you declined politely
The smile on his face faded as he looked at you with a sad look on his face
“Okay… I understand”
5 years later, he tried again
“Do you say yes now?”
“Still no..”
His smile didn’t fade thankfully, he slightly nodded as he understood
“I’ll wait”
9 years later. It was now present time. You were sleeping on Azure’s lap as he was caressing your head gently—until your 4 year old son opened the door. With tired eyes, he looked at his father while rubbing his eyes
“I can’t sleep..”
“Shh… our mama is sleeping… Why don’t you come under the sheets, hm?”
Your 4 year old tiredly nodded and walked over to your bed and climbed under the sheets
