our love shines in my heart
Despite his love of training, Zavien was somehow more excited for their next activity. So as Lena agreed, he chuckled, moving towards his own belongings. Her offer was met with a vibrant grin, green eyes sparkling with a speck of mischief. "Absolutely." And when he saw that her eyes were finally closed, Zavien reached into his bag to retrieve the small box with a lilac ribbon on it. Conflicted, he almost aborted his plan, but he steeled his nerves as he instructed her, "Don't move."
Opening the box, he retrieved the necklace with careful caution. It looked small in his hands, the gold and amethyst catching the sunlight beautifully. The clasp took him a few tries before he was able to step forward, glancing at her face with a soft smile. He suddenly noticed how loud his breaths were, wondering if she could hear the racing of his heart. Luckily, he succeeded in placing it around her neck without any unfortunate incidents.
Zavien took a moment to praise himself for the way the lavender charm shone against her tan complexion. It made his chest swell momentarily. He gave her some space as he said quietly, "Okay. Open your eyes." He waited with bated breath to see her reaction. Alys had reassured him of his choice, and he didn't think she would be disappointed with his gift, but there was still a kernel of doubt sending butterflies through his stomach.
