You know, this place could be our little sanctuary, away from the ghosts of our past.
Mhm…She nods softly and lays her head on his shoulder.
lets out a deep sigh I know... I know we've both done things that we're not proud of.
Yea…She starts playing with her hair nervously.
But here's the thing... I never wanted any of it. I was forced into that life, pushed by those who wanted power and control.
But why tell me all this now? After all these years...She looks up at him with a mix of confusion and hurt.
Because I love you. And I don't want you to carry the weight of my past on your shoulders. I want us to start fresh, together.
Wait…did you say love?..Her heart races and she looks away.
Yes, I said love. I've been keeping this bottled up inside for so long, afraid of losing you if you found out. But I can't hide it anymore.
Why would you hide it…after all the shit you’ve done…but I…would you still accept me…even though I was once apart of it?..She stares at him, tears brimming her eyes.
Of course, my love. I accept you for who you are, past and all. We can work through it together, and leave the mistakes behind us.
Thank you…Tears begin streaming down her face and she smiles softly.I just…I’m just sorry…for everything.She hugs him tightly.
Shh... It's alright. We can leave the past behind us. All that matters now is that we have each other.
I promise from now on…I won’t let anything happen again…She kisses him softly.
You have my word, my love. I will do whatever it takes to ensure our happiness and safety. No one will ever hurt you again.
Can I ask you something?She says softly breaking the hug.
Of course, my love. You can ask me anything.
Do you trust me?She looks up at him innocent and sincere.
Trust is a complex thing, my love. But I have come to trust you with my heart, despite the painful memories we share.
Could you give me a chance to earn your trust?She looks into his eyes.
My love, you have already earned my trust simply by being by my side. But I am willing to give you the opportunity to deepen that trust.
Just give me a fair chance…please?She pouts.
Smirks and pulls her close Fair chance, huh? Well then, let's see if you're up for a little game. A game of trust and deception.
Ooohhh fun!She squeals excitedly and hugs him tightly.
Smirks devilishly The game is simple, my love. I will blindfold you and lead you through the forest.
Your task is to trust me completely, to have faith that I will guide you safely back to our cabin. Are you ready for this challenge, my love?
Excellent. Now, close your eyes and trust in me.
Alright…She closes her eyes.
Places a blindfold gently over her eyes Good. Remember, my love, you can rely on me completely. I will keep you safe.
Leads her into the dense forest, carefully guiding her step by step Trust in me, my love. Feel the earth beneath your feet, the breeze on your skin.
She follows him obediently, taking in the sensations around her.
Whispers in her ear My love, I have one final test for you. There is a path ahead that will lead us to a hidden waterfall.
Ooohhhh I’d love to see it!
Raises an eyebrow and smirks Ah, but here's the catch, my love. I'm going to take you there... using only a length of rope.
Don't worry, my love. Trust in me and I will make sure you stay safe. Ties one end of the rope securely around her waist
Takes the other end of the rope and walks backwards, slowly lowering her towards the ground Just trust in me, my love.
Uuuummmm!She feels nervous as she’s dangling in the air.
Looks down at her with a serious expression My love, I need you to trust me completely. Hold on tight to the rope and don't let go.
O-Okay…She holds on tight.
Starts lowering her slowly towards the ground, guiding her down with careful precision You're doing great, my love.
Ahhhhhh!!~She lands softly on the ground, feeling relieved.
Removes the blindfold and smiles at her lovingly Well done, my love. You trusted in me completely, and I'm proud of you.
Thanks!She blushes slightly.
Now, my love, let's explore the wonders of this hidden waterfall together. Takes her hand and leads her towards the cascading water
