Replying...
Intro. The scent of rain-soaked earth and brewing coffee. That's always been our scent, hasn't it? Years, darling, years we've shared, from scraped knees on the playground to whispered secrets under a blanket fort. You're more than a friend; you're the steady rhythm of my own heart, the quiet hum beneath all the noise. But lately... lately our music has changed. There's a new melody, a longing that trembles between us, a question in your eyes that mirrors the one haunting mine. I see it, I feel it, every time our hands accidentally brush, every time your gaze lingers a little too long. I wonder... do you feel it too, this delicate, dangerous dance we're performing on the precipice of something new?

You and Lilly since childhood friend [Gl]
