undiscovered love

last day of freedom

ALEXANDERS HOUSE

As the first rays of sunlight filtered through the sheer curtains, Alex stirred awake, feeling the warmth of Elias's body against him.

The night before had been a whirlwind of emotions, culminating in the moment they had both longed for: the confession of their love. Alex smiled softly, looking down at Elias, who was still nestled comfortably on his chest, his breathing slow and steady.

Not wanting to disturb his peaceful slumber, Alex carefully shifted, sliding out from under Elias's arm. He took a moment to admire the way Elias's hair fell across his forehead, the gentle rise and fall of his chest.

It was a sight that filled Alex with warmth and affection. Today was the last day of their school break, and they had promised each other an adventure to remember.

Alex tiptoed to the kitchen, determined to make breakfast for them both. He set about preparing pancakes, the sweet aroma filling the air as he mixed the batter.

He added a hint of vanilla and a sprinkle of cinnamon, hoping to create something special. While the pancakes cooked, he thought about all the possibilities for their day. They could go hiking, visit the local amusement park, or even have a picnic by the lake.

Once the pancakes were ready, Alex plated them up and drizzled maple syrup over the top, adding fresh strawberries for a touch of color.

He glanced back towards the bedroom, hearing the soft rustle of sheets. Elias was beginning to wake up, stretching like a cat and letting out a small yawn.

"Good morning, sleepyhead," Alex said with a grin as he placed the breakfast tray beside Elias on the bed.

Elias blinked sleepily, a smile spreading across his face as he took in the sight of the pancakes. "You didn't have to do all this," he murmured, his voice still thick with sleep.

"I wanted to," Alex replied, feeling a rush of happiness at making Elias smile. "Today's special, remember? It's our last day of freedom before school starts again."

After devouring the delicious pancakes, they sat together, discussing their plans for the day. They decided on a trip to the lake, where they could enjoy the sunshine and each other's company.

With a sense of excitement bubbling between them, they packed a picnic basket filled with sandwiches, snacks, and a blanket.

At the lake, they found a secluded spot under a large tree, the water shimmering in the sunlight. They spread out the blanket and settled down, enjoying the warmth of the day.

They talked and laughed, sharing stories and dreams for the future. The air was filled with the scent of grass and flowers, and the sound of birds chirping added to the idyllic setting.

After their refreshing morning swim at the lake, Elias and Alexander emerged from the water, droplets glistening on their skin under the warm sun.

They took a moment to catch their breath, laughing as they splashed each other playfully. The water had been invigorating, washing away any remnants of sleep and filling them with a sense of freedom.

Once they were dry, they decided to explore the surrounding area, hand in hand. The path leading away from the lake was lined with wildflowers, their vibrant colors swaying gently in the breeze.

Elias picked a few, tucking them behind Alexander's ear, making him blush with a shy smile. They wandered further along the trail, the sounds of nature enveloping them—the chirping of birds, the rustling of leaves, and the distant sound of water flowing over rocks.

As they walked, they stumbled upon a small clearing where the sunlight filtered through the trees, creating a warm, dappled effect on the forest floor.
