Breaking Free After My Rebirth
Gabriel stood very close, his warm breath brushing against my ear, making me feel tingly.
I turned my head and met his deep gaze. In that moment, time seemed to stand still, and my heart skipped a beat.
"Merry Christmas, Gabriel."
He leaned close to my ear and whispered, "I like you, Rachel."
Outside the window, fireworks continued to bloom, their brilliant colors reflecting on my face and on Gabriel's.
