The afternoon sun poured through the open window, warming Michael's skin as he sat on the back patio, re-reading the words. He’d never felt anything quite like it. The description of their first kiss, the hesitant touch of their hands… it was as if he was experiencing it all over again.

He let out a low chuckle, a sound filled with pure amusement and contentment. He couldn't stop smiling. He felt a light, almost electric buzz coursing through him. He imagined her reading it, and a fresh wave of warmth spread through him. He wanted to run, to jump, to do something wild and unexpected.
