As I walked hand in hand with Felix toward my house, I couldn't help but feel a sense of excitement and nervousness. It had been a long time since we had been together like this, and I couldn't deny the fluttering feeling in my stomach.As we walked, I noticed Max out of the corner of my eye. I could see the giddy expression on her face as she watched them walk by. I couldn't help but smile to myself. I knew Max had always been rooting for us to get back together, and it was nice to see that she was happy to see us together again.As we approached my house, I turned to face Felix. "Thank you for walking me home, Felix. It's been a really great night," I said, feeling grateful for the way the evening had turned out.Felix smiled back at me. "I had a great time too, Iris. I'm glad we were able to talk and clear the air between us," he said, his expression sincere.I nodded, feeling a sense of relief wash over me. It was a huge weight off my shoulders to know that we were both on the sam

"Hey, Max, have you heard from Red lately?" Iris asked."Yeah, I talked to him a few days ago. He's been super busy with work and writing new songs. He's really focused on his music right now.""That's great to hear. I know he's been working hard to get his music career off the ground. How's he handling everything?""He's doing well, but he's definitely feeling the pressure. He's been putting in long hours at the studio and trying to balance everything else in his life. But he's got a good support system, and he's determined to make it work.""I'm glad to hear that. Red is such a talented musician, and he deserves all the success in the world.""I couldn't agree more," Max said with a smile. "He's been putting his heart and soul into his music, and it shows. I can't wait to see what he comes up with next.""I'm happy for him, I wonder if Felix ever thought about his music career before," I said."I'm sure he's happy with his career now," Max said."But I'm pretty sure he'll be happy t

It was a peaceful evening, and the sun had already set. I was sitting on my couch, reading a book, when I heard a knock at my door. I walked over to answer it, and to my surprise, it was Felix."Hey," he said with a smile, holding a small gift bag in his hand. "I hope it's okay that I dropped by.""Of course it is," I replied, feeling a warmth spread through me at the sight of him. "Come in."I led him to the living room, where he handed me the gift bag. "This is for Lily," he said, gesturing to the bag."Thank you, Felix," I said, smiling as I opened it. Inside was a stuffed bear with a ribbon around its neck. "She's going to love it.""I hope so," he said, sitting down next to me on the couch. "And this," he added, holding up a small box, "is for you."I opened the box to reveal a delicate silver necklace with a small heart-shaped pendant. "Felix, it's beautiful," I said, touched by his thoughtfulness."I'm glad you like it," he replied, his eyes sparkling.We shared a bottle of wi

I felt a mix of excitement and nervousness as I heard a knock on the door. I knew it was Max, and I couldn't wait to catch up with her.As I opened the door, Max's familiar face greeted me with a smile. "Iris! It's so good to see you!" she exclaimed, pulling me into a tight embrace."It's great to see you too, Max," I replied, feeling a surge of warmth in my chest. "Come on in."Max stepped into the apartment, looking around at the unfamiliar surroundings. "Wow, this place is nice," she commented, taking in the modern decor and spacious living room.I led her to the kitchen, where I had prepared some snacks and drinks. As we sat down at the table, I couldn't help but feel a sense of comfort in Max's presence. She knew me better than anyone else, and I knew that I could trust her with anything."How are you?" I ask."I'm doing great. Lance has already made the book cover of my book, and I really liked it," she said, smiling at me."Are things between you and lance doing great?" I ask h

I picked up the phone and heard Red's voice on the other end. He sounded subdued and serious, not his usual upbeat self.As we talked, Red confided in me that he was worried about Max. He missed her a lot and was concerned that their friendship was drifting apart because of him. I could sense the sadness in Red's voice as he spoke.Red also revealed that he was scared to take the next step in their friendship. He was afraid of falling harder for Max and potentially ruining their relationship. I could hear the vulnerability in Red's voice as he shared his feelings.I listened carefully and tried to offer some words of encouragement. I reminded Red of how important Max was to him and how much their friendship meant. I also encouraged him to be honest with Max about his feelings, even if it was scary.I could tell that Red was still hesitant, but I hoped that my words had provided some comfort. I promised to be there for him and to support him no matter what."She visited me in my studio
