As long as I'm with him, I'm okay.
I stayed asleep through the rest of the car ride, completely unaware of any surroundings that I would have been, had I been awake.
I was soon stirred awake by a kiss on my cheek, it sweet and short, but enough to wake me up. I made eye contact with a smiling Taehyung. His smile seemed a bit nervous, but I brushed it off and climbed out of the car, gripping onto Tae's blanket.
He grabbed my duffel bag and the snacks before locking the car and walking with me to the front of the apartment building in front of us. The doorman smiles and bow to us as we follow suit, my tired form not completely able to bow correctly.
Tae chuckles at my "cuteness" and wraps an arm around my shoulder, leading me inside to the elevator we skipped taking on our way out.
I cuddle into his side as we're in there, cheesy music adding to the almost movie-like experience that morning had been.
I yawned as we entered my apartment, laying the snacks out on the coffee table.
He popped in my favorite movie before taking his jacket off and laying on the couch with me.
Before the movie can even properly start, he pauses it and taps me on the shoulder. I raise my eyebrow at him, and he sits up a bit before nodding for me to do the same.
Suddenly I notice the candles burning, and the floor to ceiling window displaying the beautiful city at night, it plagued only with the rain, creating beautiful white noise.
I look back at him before he sits me straightforward on the couch, getting off of it himself.
I raise my eyebrows and correct my posture before making intense eye contact with him.

He gets down on one knee and grabs my hand, kissing it, before looking to his pocket.
He pulled out a box, but not just any box.
It was black velvet lined, and was not perfectly square.
He cleared his throat a bit and opened the box to show a beautiful ring, a silver band with a butterfly engraved into it, a small diamond in between the wings.
Immediately, my eyes fill with tears. I put my hands on his cheeks as he speaks.
"Will you marry me?"

The Featherlight Transmission
In the ancient desert metropolis of Wellspring City, magic is dead, and technology reigns supreme. Baulric Featherlight, one of thousands of street mages for hire, is summoned by the City Watch to assist with a particularly grisly murder - the deed was done by a rogue mage, and the fanatical Dynamic Brotherhood will have every arcanist in the city pay for it. The killer continues carving a line of death throughout all twenty sectors of the city, and anti-magic sentiment begins to rise. Will Featherlight's singular skills be enough to hunt down this elusive killer? Or will fear and old hatreds finally tear Wellspring City apart? (Cover art by the inestimable UncertaintyCrossing. You can find more of his enchanting works here.) hi! im the guy that wrote this story. i hope you like reading it. im bad at elevator pitches ^ and honestly, it's a little misleading. it's really just a detective noir with a few extras. if you like detective stories, this is a good one. it's got robots and magic and stuff too. have fun! (obligatory extra note: im an internet busker who subsists on the generosity of readers like you. if you haven't done your good deed for the day and you think my work is worth paying for, why not tip some spare change into my hat? i'd be awful appreciative ♥) [premium game of the year DLC edition edit: if you've read the whole thing for free and want to buy a copy for yourself, this dang ol' story is available for purchase on amazon now. it's not super special, but showing your support by buying it would make writing new ones a lot easier. thanks a million billion for reading either way ♥]
