Sitting in Vēž's strong embrace, I feel a sense of safety and security. His arms wrapped protectively around my body, pulling me closer and grounding me in the present moment. The forest around us is quiet, save for the soft rustle of leaves and the occasional chirping of birds. The sun filters through the trees, casting dappled light onto the forest floor.
Vēž's presence is calming, his steady breathing and the warmth of his body against mine lulling me into a state of peace. I feel completely at ease in his arms, as if the outside world and all its worries have faded away.
I close my eyes and take in a deep breath, the fresh scent of pine filling my lungs. I can feel Vēž's heart beating against my chest, steady and strong. It's a comforting rhythm that makes me feel as if we are one.
I gaze at Vēž, his sharp features softened by the gentle sunlight. He meets my gaze and smiles, a rare and genuine smile that warms my heart. At this moment, I feel a bond with him that goes beyond words.
In the distance, I hear the faint sound of a waterfall. Vēž must have heard it too because he chuckles before whispering in my ear, "Would you like to see it?"
I nod eagerly as he sets me down and takes my hand, leading me through the forest towards the sound. As we walk, I can't help but feel grateful for this moment of peace and tranquility in Vēž's arms. As we reach the waterfall and stand in awe of its beauty, I know I am exactly where I am meant to be. With Vēž, in this forest, feeling safe and loved.
