Ivy hesitated to answer Balfour's question directly. She wanted to trust him, but the fear of giving her heart only to end up hurt made her seek reassurance about his feelings.
"I want to be with you, Ivy. I don't want our relationship to be just some flimsy contract. Believe it or not, there's plenty of time, and I'll prove it to you."
They looked at each other in silence, tears already swirling in Ivy's eyes.
She wasn't sure if she had finally received what she'd longed for, but her tears were a clear sign of her happiness.
They fell asleep in each other's arms, and when Ivy woke up the next morning, she felt a tight embrace around her waist.
It wasn't until Balfour nuzzled her neck that memories of the previous night came flooding back. Balfour had come to her in the wee hours and confessed his feelings.
It all felt like a dream, so when Balfour asked her what she was daydreaming about, Ivy was still in a daze.
"What are you thinking about?"
"Huh? Oh, nothing, just... it all seems a bit unbelievable."
Ivy shyly tucked in her neck, but Balfour gently rolled her over to face him.
He kissed her forehead gently.
"Still feels unbelievable? I'm right here with you. If you're ever uneasy, just hold my hand."
Ivy looked down and smiled faintly, a scene that had only ever occurred in her dreams.
"Alright, enough dawdling. Is your scene schedule tight this morning?"
