Chapter 131: Everything Is More Real Now.-2

I recognize the ceiling, the walls. The details, and for a second… Everything feels strange.

Like I’m in a place I know… but that no longer belongs to me at all.

But it’s not uncomfortable, it doesn’t hurt

It is… different.

I look down and there he is. Ethan, asleep.

So close… that I can see every detail of his face. His relaxed expression, his deep breathing.

The quiet rhythm of his chest rising and falling under my hand.

I stare at him, silently. Without haste, as if this moment… I didn’t need anything else.

My hand barely moves.

It slowly moves up… to his face, I touch him gently.

My fingertips running down his cheek, soft… as if I were afraid to wake him up.

Claim

But I don’t; he remains asleep. Oblivious to everything, and that… allows me to observe him without filters.

Without defenses, without all that usually comes between us.

I swallow hard, because there’s something in this… that it touches me deeper than I expected.

It’s not just being here, it’s not just having slept together. This is it.

The calmness, the way I feel right now.

My hand slowly goes down to his chest, I feel his heart beating steadily. Present… And for a second… I

close my eyes. Breathing, feeling. Because I understand it.

Here… Now. In a way that I had not been able to before. This… It’s not about the others.

It is not about what they say, what they think, what they remember about us.

It’s not about the history they know.

Of what we were… Or how we end up, I open my eyes again. And I look at him again.

To him, to this moment, to what is happening between us… No noise, no pressure.

“This is ours…” I whisper barely, almost voiceless.

Because that’s the only thing that matters, how I feel, how he feels.

What we are building now… not what others expect to see. Not what they think should happen.

My thumb gently brushes his chest, unconscious, natural. And I smile very slightly.

Because I no longer feel lost, or confused, or trapped in what was.

I’m here… Because I want to be there.

Cham

I’m trying this… Because Tfeel it. Because he… makes me feel different now… Good, safe. And that… that has nothing to do with anyone else.

I move a little closer to him, without waking him. Just settling myself more comfortably in his arms.

As if that place… little by little… were becoming mine again. And I close my eyes once more.

Not to go back to sleep, but to stay here. One more moment.

In this calmness, in this certainty, in this that… without realizing it… It starts to feel like home again.

Waking up was gentle, but getting up… It felt different.

As if something inside me had settled during the night. Not completely, not perfect.

But yes… different.

I arrange myself calmly, without haste. And when I go down to the garden… I see him.

Ethan is already there. And for a second… I stop. Not because of a doubt, but because the image… stays

with me.

The table is set. Simple, but careful. Like everything he’s done since I arrived.
