[For Indira Beaumont]
Every morning Nicholas would wake up and gaze at Indira lovingly for a few seconds, after which he would stroke her hair and gently give her a kiss on the forehead. Then, he would grudgingly get out of bed and ready himself to head out for the day. While dressing himself, he would wish he could just spend the whole day with her, but he had a company to run. He needed to clean up the small little messes his drunk father had made during his leadership. Nicholas dealt in ships and wares, and the family was known for their expertise when it came to the former. They were a big ship family.
That day, he had arranged to meet up with Indira outside of his office near the docks, so they could go for a walk on the beach while the sun was setting. It would be a magical scene, almost as magical and fairytale-like as the way the couple had met last year. They had met during the Twofold Goddess' Ver festival, when Indira had accidentally dropped her wreath into the water and he had jumped after it to retrieve it for her. Although she hadn't finished the wreath, it had served its purpose, and had brought them together.
Although he was ten years older, he never felt like it when he was with Indira. She kept him young, and he loved and appreciated that about her.
The hours had slowly crept on by, and finally, the work day was finished. Nick said goodbye to his workers and locked the office behind him before heading down to the docks near the beach. There he would wait for Indira with a bottle of wine.
