He was a summer crush. Something she thought would disappear within the time when the sun stayed in the sky past 9pm and rose mere hours later.
She thought that when the world turned cold and the leaves fell from the trees, she would be in her own little bubble again, cozying up by the fire and filling her nose with the fragrant smell of hot chocolate. Him being a distant part of her past, a fond memory.
Though the crush never disappeared, it never faded away. It grew stronger every day, and Victoire wanted to hate him, she wanted to hate herself for letting it escalate. But the good won out the bad, and she found herself back in his arms again.
It was one especially opalescent dusk after her holiday. He'd appeared out of the blue with a peace offering of Blue Bell Ice Cream, and told her that he'd never forget her, never forget her sea blue eyes, or her golden hair. Never forget their moments together, and that he never wanted to.
And Victoire was speechless, she was never a romantic, never one to believe in true love and that a silly summer holiday crush would last, but she was wrong. She was proved very wrong.
