RORY’S POV

“Heeeyyyy Superstar!” Rosalie announced as she came into my room without even knocking. I had my book right before me, lost in the world of astrophysics.

“Tell me, how did your day go?” She asked, wriggling her eyebrows at me with the familiar mischievous glint in her eyes.

I groaned, letting my head fall back against my chair.

How did my day go? My day was… well, mortifying. I had never, ever been in so uncomfortable or in such an awkward position before.

I had never gotten so much attention before.

Not even when they announced me as some sort of real-life genius at that science fair.

Between the two scenarios, and standing firmly on my own opinion, I genuinely think it’s better to be recognized for incredible intelligence.

Come on! Someone exceptionally smarter means more complex problems solved, more breakthroughs! But what do I know? I’m just a nerd in a world obsessed with… well, apparently, not brains.

“It was very annoying, Rosa,” I finally answered my sister afte

    TODD’S POV Bella Luna was even better than I remembered. I have not been here since three years ago when Mum had her birthday.Rory loves this place very much but we have not gone there in a very long time.We used to go a lot when we were younger. All I had to do was beg my parents to take us and Rosalie used to take us too.There was a time Rory celebrated all her birthdays here. According to her, it reminds her of an elegant restaurant from her childhood.Bella Luna was truly very elegant. It was dimly lit, cozy, with soft Italian music playing in the background. The rich scent of garlic, tomatoes, and fresh bread filled the air. The hostess led us to a secluded booth in the corner, away from the main dining area. It felt private, intimate, perfect for us and there were fancy candles on the tableRory looked around, her eyes wide with appreciation and still disbelief.“Todd.” She said looking like she was lost for words. "This is perfect, Todd. Thank you." She finally said. "A

    TODD’S POV"Hi," Rory whispered, and the sound was like music. My mouth felt a little dry, and for a second, I forgot how to breathe. She was even more stunning than I could have imagined. The way the blue dress seemed to glow around her, the way her red hair framed her face, her eyes shining like emeralds. It was all just… wow."Wow," I managed to say, the word barely a croak. "You look… incredible, Rory. Absolutely incredible."A faint blush dusted her cheeks, making her look even prettier. She tucked a stray curl behind her ear, a nervous habit I knew well. "You don't look so bad yourself, Prince Charming," she said, a small, shy smile playing on her lips. "That suit… it really suits you."We both laughed a little. That suit as she said suits me. Rory is one to always pull up this funny jokes. As the chuckles died down, we were left looking at one another. Rory smiled at me and her eyes looked from my head to toe in what looked like admiration to me. “You look really handsome T

    TODD’S POVI stood in front of the full-length mirror, turning from side to side, trying to get a good look at myself. The dark blue suit fit perfectly, almost like it was custom-made. It wasn't a goofy, over-the-top costume, but more of a refined, modern take on Prince Charming. The jacket had a subtle brocade pattern, and the silver buttons gleamed. Underneath, I wore a crisp white shirt with a ruffled front, a nod to the classic fairy tale look without being too much.My dark hair was styled neatly, brushed back from my forehead.I wanted everything to be simply perfect for us. I had down my best to be sure that things were coming nicely.I tried to be sure I looked as neat and bright as Ever. If there was a way I could even make sure my blue eyes, which Rory always said she liked, were clearer and brighter, I would have done it. I picked up the small, dark blue eye mask I’d gotten for us. Rory's was a lighter, shimmery blue to match her dress, and mine was a slightly darker shad

    RORY’S POV RORY’S POV The Beauty Bar was a lively place, always buzzing with chatter and the sweet scent of hairspray and lotions. As we stepped inside, the familiar cheerful pop music hit my ears. Marie, the owner, a wonderfully warm woman with a permanent smile and brightly colored hair, looked up from behind the counter.“Rosalie! Rory! Look who it is!” Marie’s smile widened, and she came around the counter to give us both a hug. “Well I am having such a blessed moment right now! I see you two times in one week, Rosalie is that not a great joy. And I get to see your little mini me as well.” She said smirking lightly at me. “Hello Marie! How are you?” Rosalie said giving Marie a kiss. She pushed me forward.“Hi Marie.” I greeted.“Hi Rory. It’s so good to see you here again.” She said smiling as she looked me over. “Is it safe to say that you enjoyed our first session so much that you are here for another?”She and Rosalie giggled a little. Before I could mumble anything, Rosa

    RORY’S POV The walk home felt different. Lighter, somehow. My feet barely seemed to touch the ground, and a goofy, unshakeable smile was plastered across my face. It was as if the whole world had suddenly decided to sparkle just for me. The leaves on the trees, the bright sun, even the dusty road – everything looked a little bit brighter, a little bit more alive. I was still buzzing from Todd’s kiss, from his words, from the impossible reality that he loved me back.He had offered to take me home but I had insisted on walking because I wanted to. And now I am glad that I did. When I finally pushed open the front door of our house, the smell of freshly baked bread hit me first. That meant Rosalie was definitely home and probably up to something delicious. Our living room was exactly as I’d left it – a comfy mess of textbooks, sketchpads, and Rosalie’s endless collection of fashion magazines. And there, sprawled on the sofa like a queen on her throne, was my older sister, Rosalie.

    (RORY’S POV) “Out Frienship is the most important thing to me.” I repeated for him to hear. Todd’s expression softened, the desire in his eyes dimming slightly, replaced by understanding. “You think we’ll mess it up?” he asked, his voice gentler now.“It’s a risk, isn’t it?” I admitted. “A big one. What if we get together, and it doesn’t work out? What happens to our friendship then? I can’t… I can’t imagine not having you in my life, Todd. Not as my best friend.” My voice cracked on the last words.He pulled me closer again, though this time it was a comforting embrace, not one of passion. He rested his chin on the top of my head. “Hey, hey,” he murmured, his voice a soft rumble against my hair. “We’re not going to mess it up. And we’re never losing our friendship. Never.”I pulled back a little, looking up at him. “But to make sure that doesn't happen… I think we need to take it slow. Really, really slow.”He pulled back, a slight, almost imperceptible sigh escaping him, but he no
