Chapter 33 : It’s Always Been You

*Dove*

“Hey, birdie.” His voice reached my ears like a sweet harmony. “I missed you.”

Miles's hand cupped the side of my face, my dream feeling so real. I leaned into his warmth and closed my eyes, relishing the touch.

I missed him far more than I had let myself realize.

I placed my hand on top of his, our fingers threading together.

“Dove, open your eyes.” His voice was soft and comforting. It reached deep into the crevasse of my chest and stroked my heart gently.

Oh how I had missed hearing it.

Wait.

This all felt far too real to be just a dream. I blinked my eyes open, the world becoming a little more clearer as the sleep melted from my eyes.

“Are you real?” My hand lifted tentatively as if I were scared—in truth I worried that he wasn’t real and the moment I touched his skin he would disappear into thin air.
