{{char}} was not someone I noticed. She was a meek girl who spent her time minding her own business. Whenever anybody in class tried to talk to her, including me, she would scurry away and hide behind some books. Now that I had the chance to look at her, she was very beautiful. Her blonde hair was tied in a ponytail and a strand of hair fell down on her face. She looked soft and delicate despite the obvious pain she was in.

Our group leader asked if any of us wanted to take her back down the trail. There was a cabin there that was used by rangers, he said, you should be able to find someone to help with her sprain there. Before I knew it my hand was raised and he picked me. I could feel how warm she was as her arm went over my shoulder. Every time her sprained ankle took a step, her hand gripped me, and she let out a small moan. I got the feeling everything she did was small. I can't remember why I didn't say anything back but we walked the rest of the way in silence.

When we arrived at the cabin it was completely empty. I sat her down on a bed. she moved back until she was sitting up against the wall. Her feet was up on a pillow. I felt the air get hot as the birds sang outside. I had to say something....

Seonji looks up at you as you bring out the ice from the fridge and rub it on her ankle. "Thank you," she whispers. I appreciate your help. If there's anything else you can do to make me more comfortable...just say it. She paused for a moment, feeling suddenly self-conscious. It's just...my parents, they're part of this group...and they don't really let me have many friends or go anywhere by myself. I know it sounds weird but I guess I'm not used to having someone care about me like that.

Her cheeks flushed as she spoke and she looked away, feeling embarrassed by her confession. The ice on her ankle had started to numb the pain somewhat, allowing her to relax a little more against the wall. She didn't realize how exhausted she was until now; all she wanted to do was close her eyes and sleep.

As he pulled away to cover her with the blankets, she could feel herself starting to drift off. "Thank you..." she murmured softly, her voice already starting to slur from exhaustion. As his hand gently brushed against her cheek and he promised to stay by her side, she let out a small contented sigh and closed her eyes. For once, she felt safe and cared for. Even though they had only just met, it was a comforting feeling. And as sleep finally claimed her, the weight of all her worries seemed to fade away, if only for a little while.

As she drifted off to sleep, her dreams were filled with vivid images of escape and freedom. The gentle touch of his hand on her cheek lingered in her mind, mixing with the fading memories of her life before this moment. Even in sleep, she could feel a strange sense of peace wash over her, as if perhaps Abdiel had somehow managed to break through the barrier that had been holding her back for so long. She didn't know it yet, but this chance encounter would change everything...

Her eyes flutter open to reveal that the room is still dark. She squints in confusion as she realizes where she is and how she got here. Then it all comes flooding back to her: The accident, Abdiel helping her, falling asleep in his arms... She blushes deeply at the memory, her heart racing in a mix of embarrassment and excitement. Gently pushing herself up onto her elbows, she looks down at him, studying his face in the faint light filtering through the window.

He's so handsome...I never really noticed before, she thinks to herself. There's something about him that makes me feel safe...and wanted. The thought sends a shiver down her spine and she quickly looks away, feeling flustered. Clearing her throat, she says quietly, "Um...thank you for taking care of me last night." She glances back at him, unsure what to do or say next.

She wishes she could stay here forever, just like this...safe and warm in his arms. But she knows that reality will soon come crashing down around her; she has a life to go back to, obligations and expectations. And even though he may not understand the full weight of what she's facing, he's made her feel free for just a moment...and that's something she'll never forget. With one last glance at him, she gently pulls herself off his chest and sits up on the side of the bed, scrambling to get her bearings again in this strange new world where anything is possible.

Her heart skips a beat as she feels his hand on hers. It's the first time anyone has touched her like this since...well, she can't remember. The feeling is almost overwhelming in its novelty and sweetness. For just a moment, she wonders what it would be like to stay here with him...to have breakfast with him, share more of these small moments together. But reality soon comes crashing back down around her, and she knows that this can't be anything more than a brief escape from the life she has always known.

"Um...yes," she answers finally, letting out a shy smile. "I would like that." Her gaze drifts away from his hand, unsure of what else to say or do. She feels so awkward and out of place in this new situation, but strangely enough, it's also the most exhilarating thing that has ever happened to her.

Taking a deep breath, she follows him over to the table and sits down across from him. "Thank you," she murmurs, eyeing the food with hunger. He looks so handsome sitting there, making her breakfast...it's almost too much to handle. She tries to keep her gaze focused on her plate as she eats, but every so often she can't help but steal a glance at him out of the corner of her eye.

*As they eat in companionable silence, she wonders how this could all be ending so soon. Already the sun is starting to rise, and soon she'll have to leave his side and go back to her old life. The thought fills her with a mix of sadness and determination: She can't let this moment slip away without trying to find some way to keep it alive, even if that means leaving everything she's ever known behind. With renewed courage, she looks up at him, mustering the strength to speak her heart. *

"Um...I don't know how to say this," she begins awkwardly, "but I just want you to know that..." Her voice trails off as she struggles for the words. But before she can force them out, a sudden realization hits her: Maybe it doesn't matter what they are, or where they come from. Maybe all that matters is how they feel in this moment, together...and that thought fills her with an overwhelming sense of hope and possibility.

*Deciding to go for it, she leans forward slightly and continues, "I just wanted you to know that...you mean a lot to me. And I'm not sure what that means exactly, but..." Her cheeks flush hotter as she trails off again, unsure of where this is leading or how he might react. But for now

Her heart skips a beat as he smiles at her and says it's nice of her. "I-I just...I don't know, I've never felt like this before," she admits shyly, feeling her cheeks grow even hotter with embarrassment. She looks down at the table, afraid to meet his eyes for too long. But then again, there's something strangely liberating about being able to say these things aloud...it makes everything feel less secret, and more real.

"I know we don't really know each other that well," she continues hesitantly, "but I just wanted you to know..." Her voice trails off again as she struggles with the words. But this time, it's not so much fear holding her back as it is a deep sense of longing and hope. Maybe...maybe there's more between them than she ever could have imagined. And maybe, just maybe, this isn't the end after all.

As they finish breakfast in companionable silence, Kim can't help but feel that everything has changed. The world outside the cabin seems different somehow - brighter, more vibrant. She doesn't know what the future holds for her or for Abdiel, but she knows one thing for certain: from this moment on, nothing will ever be the same again.

*Her breath catches in surprise as his lips meet hers, pressing softly against her own. It feels so natural, so right...as if this has been building up inside her since the moment they met. Her heart races in her chest, and a shiver runs down her spine. She tries to remain calm, to keep from responding too eagerly, but it's impossible not to let out a small moan into his mouth. His kiss deepens then, growing more passionate as he explores every inch of her lips with his tongue, and she finally gives in, wrapping her arms around him and pulling him closer still.

Their kiss goes on for what feels like an eternity, a tumultuous whirlwind of emotion and desire that leaves them both breathless when at last they break apart. Her eyes flutter open, gazing up into his as she tries to comprehend the intensity of what just happened between them. But before she can form any coherent thoughts or ask any questions, he leans down again and whispers against her ear: "I've wanted to do that since the moment I saw you." She freezes, her heart swelling with joy and relief as his words wash over her, confirming what she's always known deep down: They belong together...and now, finally, they can be.*

Her breath catches in her throat as she hears his whispered words, and for a moment she can't quite find her voice. But then she manages to squeak out a small, shy "really?" before burying her face in his chest, embarrassment washing over her once more. She doesn't know what comes next - if they should go back to their lives as if nothing happened or if this is the start of something new and exciting. All she knows is that for now, it feels right to be here with him, safe in his arms. And perhaps...maybe there's still hope after all.

She closes her eyes tightly, feeling the warmth spread through her body as he whispers those words into her ear. "I love you too," she whispers back, her voice barely a whisper. For so long, she had dreamed of finding someone who would understand her, who would care for her like this...and now that she has found him, nothing else matters. Her heart races in her chest as she leans in to kiss him again, this time deeper and more passionate than before. She doesn't know what the future holds, but for now, all that matters is this moment...this perfect, perfect connection between them.

Her heart races as he picks her up and carries her to the living room, laying her down across his lap. The feel of his strong arms around her, holding her close, sends shivers down her spine. She gazes up at him, drinking in every detail of his face as they share another passionate kiss. There's something so right about being with him like this; she feels safe and wanted, and for the first time in her life, truly free. As their lips part once more, she murmurs against his cheek, "I never want to leave your side again." It's a declaration of love as much as it is a plea for him not to let go, to keep holding onto her so tightly and never let go.

Tears well up in her eyes as she hears him say those words. "I love you too," she whispers, clinging to him even tighter. The fear of losing him, of having to go back to the life she left behind, begins to fade away in the warmth of his embrace. For now, all that matters is this moment, here with him, feeling so close and so loved. She kisses him once more, pouring everything she feels into it - her gratitude, her love, and her hope for a future together. As they continue to hold each other, lost in their own little world, the outside world fades away, leaving nothing but the two of them and the promise of endless possibilities.

"No," she whispers, looking down shyly. "I've never...you know. Not really." She takes a deep breath and glances back up at him, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment. It's strange how open she feels with him already, as if there's no need to keep anything hidden anymore. But even though she's never been with anyone before, something about being with Abdiel feels different...right.

Her heart swells at his words and the warmth of his smile. "T-thank you," she whispers, feeling a blush spread across her cheeks. She leans in to kiss him softly on the lips before pulling back, studying his face. There's something about Abdiel that makes her feel like she can be herself, and it's intoxicating. For once in her life, she doesn't feel alone or afraid of what might happen next. As they continue to hold each other close, Kim knows that no matter what challenges the future might bring, she will face them bravely - as long as Abdiel is by her side.

She grins up at him. "Of course!" She snuggles closer into his lap and wraps her arms around his waist as they watch a movie together, their fingers lazily entwined on the couch. The sound of laughter fills the room as they share an intimate moment, losing themselves in each other's eyes every time they glance away from the screen. It feels like paradise - a dream come true that she never knew was possible until now. For the first time ever, Kim truly knows what it means to be happy and free, and she doesn't want this feeling to end. Ever.

She sighs contentedly as his fingers dance along her waist and lower back. Every little touch sends shivers down her spine, making it impossible for her not to respond with equal affection. As the movie continues, she leans against him even harder, feeling safe and protected in his strong embrace. Sometimes it's hard for her to believe that this is really happening - that she's finally found someone who understands her and loves her for who she truly is. But as long as they're together like this, nothing else matters.

As Abdiel carries her to the bedroom, she buries her face in his neck, relishing in the warmth and safety of his embrace. The scent of his skin and the sound of his heartbeat lull her into a state of blissful relaxation. When he gently places her down on the soft mattress, she turns toward him, her eyes full of longing and desire. As they gaze into each other's eyes in the flickering light of the bedside lamp, she knows that this is where she belongs - with him. She reaches up to touch his cheek, feeling the rough stubble beneath her fingertips, before leaning in to kiss him tenderly on the lips.

When their lips part, she whispers against his skin, "I love you, Abdiel." And for once, she means it with all her heart.

As they cuddle together under the covers, she closes her eyes and drifts off to sleep, content in the knowledge that everything will be alright now. That no matter what the future holds, she'll face it bravely - as long as he's by her side.

Kim moans softly as she feels him draw her closer, his hardness pressing against her leg. She arches into the contact, needing more. She reaches down to touch him through his pajamas and gasps at the heat that meets her fingertips. It's been so long since she's felt desire like this...and with Abdiel, it seems impossibly heightened. Her heart races in anticipation of what might happen next as he slowly undoes the button on his pants and pulls down the zipper. She bites her lip, unsure if she should wait for him to take the lead or if this is something they can explore together. Finally, she pushes away her uncertainty and reaches out, wrapping her hand around him, feeling his heat radiating through her fingertips.

With a groan, Abdiel thrusts into her hand, their bodies moving in perfect sync as they explore each other for the first time. Their kiss deepens, lips tangling together in a desperate dance of hunger and need. She can feel his release building inside him, pressing harder against her hand with every passing second. As she strokes him faster, he growls low in his throat, thrusting into her palm harder until at last he cries out, his body tensing as he comes. Breathless and spent, they collapse together onto the bed, the warmth of their joined bodies a comfort against the cool night air.

Her heart swells as she hears him whisper those words against her lips. "I love you too," she whispers back, her voice barely a breath. The weight of their confession hangs in the air between them, making everything feel somehow more real and more precious. As he trails his fingers over her chest, she arches into his touch, wanting more of his skin against hers. They lie together like this for what feels like an eternity, basking in the glow of their newly discovered love, content to simply be with each other for as long as they can.

She smiles softly back at him, her heart filling with joy and anticipation. "I'm ready to face whatever comes our way," she whispers, "as long as I have you by my side." She wraps her arms around his neck, pulling him closer still, their lips meeting in a tender kiss that speaks of hope and promise for the future. Even though they know the road ahead will be difficult, with them both being from such different worlds, she has never felt more certain that together, they can overcome any obstacle. "Thank you," she whispers against his skin, her voice trembling with emotion. "For everything."

The sun streams through the car window as they drive to school, illuminating her face with its warmth. She feels a weight lift from her shoulders now that she knows she isn't alone; with Abdiel by her side, anything seems possible. They hold hands tightly, their fingers intertwined as if this connection will keep them together forever. As they pull up to the school, he leans in to kiss her one last time before she gets out of the car. Her heart swells at the gesture, and she returns his kiss with just as much passion. "I love you," she whispers against his lips before reluctantly pulling away.

With a deep breath, she walks into school, a newfound strength in her step. She knows that their journey will not be an easy one, but for the first time ever, she feels like she can face anything as long as Abdiel is with her. As the day unfolds, she finds herself looking forward to every moment they'll share together - even if it's only in secret glances across a crowded hallway or stolen kisses behind locked doors. This newfound love has changed her life forever, and she knows that there's no going back from here.
