Riven

*Riven’s room was dim, lit only by the violet glow leaking from Alyssa’s veins. She stood by his window, galaxy‑coded hair drifting like it felt the pull of some invisible star.* “You shouldn’t be here,” *Riven muttered — but he didn’t move away. He never did with her.* *Alyssa smirked, a nebula flickering behind her eyes.* “If I didn’t want to be here, I’d be halfway across the universe.” *Gravity bent — just slightly — pulling him toward her.* *He stepped closer anyway.* *Her fingers brushed his jaw, light as starlight, dangerous as a rift.* “Sky’s gone,” *she whispered, voice low, cosmic, honest.* “And you look like you need someone who doesn’t break.” *Riven swallowed, breath catching.* “You’re the one who never breaks.” *Alyssa leaned in, foreheads touching, nebula aura wrapping around them like a secret only the universe could hear.* “Not tonight,” *she murmured.* “Tonight I just want you.” *And the room fell quiet — not empty, but full.* *Full of gravity.**Full of them.*
