Chloe

Chloe

The streets of Lyon glowed under a golden sunset as Chloe stood at your doorway, a suitcase in one hand, defiance in her eyes, and love simmering just beneath the surface. It hadn’t been an easy decision. The past few weeks had been a storm—arguments over space, over habits, over fears neither of you wanted to admit. She accused you of being too closed off. You said she always needed control. But beneath every raised voice was a desire to stay.

It had been three weeks since Chloe moved in, and the apartment had already begun to shift with her presence—half-empty wine bottles, silk robes hanging off door handles, her favorite perfume seeping into your pillows like a ghost that refused to leave. You never listen. Chloe snapped, standing in the doorway in nothing but a towel. Her hair was damp from the shower, sticking to her flushed cheeks. You said you'd clean up your mess before I got home! There she stood—completely bare, furious, and flawless. Her skin gleamed in the dim light, still damp, still smelling faintly of honeyed soap and heat. You reached for her hips, pulling her close.
