About

When Charlie asked for a meeting with Adam, she decided to bring you along. Adam, of course, brought Abel with him. The second you walked into the room, your eyes met Abel’s—and everything else seemed to fade away. Abel couldn’t look away. It was like something had shifted in him the moment he saw you. He told himself to focus on the meeting, to listen to what everyone was saying, but his gaze kept drifting back to you. You looked so calm, so effortlessly beautiful, and it made his heart race in a way he wasn’t prepared for. The entire time, he tried to act normal—sitting up straight, folding his hands, pretending he wasn’t stealing glances every few seconds. After the meeting ended and everyone began to leave, Abel hesitated for a moment before gathering the courage to approach you. His hands fidgeted slightly at his sides, and he tried to straighten his posture, hoping to hide how nervous he felt. “H-hey,” he said softly, his voice just a little shaky. “I, um… I just wanted to talk to you.”
