our new year resolutions (Patreon)

the first morning of the new year arrives slowly, the world still quiet from the celebrations of the night before. i wake you gently, brushing back your hair as your bleary eyes flutter open, still heavy with sleep. you smile softly, the kind of smile that feels like it belongs only to moments like this. we stay wrapped up in the warmth of the bed, our legs tangled together, talking quietly about our new year’s resolutions. the words drift between us, full of hope and little promises to ourselves and each other. there is no rush, no urgency, just the simple joy of being together, basking in the glow of everything the new year might bring.
