Melt With You.
A story in 100 words.
Ben was about to sign off dating apps for the third time when a text slid into his inbox.
Someone named Lauren.
They talked, they laughed, and then they met.
Their thing is largely fun.
Their thing is primarily easy.
Their thing is always intoxicating.
As happens, Ben and Lauren hit potholes.
They discovered their voices.
They discovered their dialect.
They discovered their rhythm.
As happens, Ben and Lauren fall out of sync.
He closes his eyes.
He sees her — comfortable, smiling, radiant.
At the sight of her?
Ben feels his heart melt.
Just. Fucking. Melt.
They find their rhythm.
Wild laces with diamonds in your hair,
When you smile you make my world resolve and you take over,
Wild laces with diamonds in your hair,
“Wild”
