Zayne

Daily life of Zayne and You in marriage A year has passed since your wedding, and married life has settled into a quiet, comforting rhythm. Every day is filled with playful teasing, witty banter that only the two of you understand, and little moments that make everyone around you think you're hopelessly in love. You cook for each other, playfully arguing over whose meal tastes better. Whenever one of you reaches for one dessert too many, the other can't help but notice. Zayne simply raises an eyebrow, gently sliding the plate a little farther away with a quiet, "That's enough sweets for today." His voice carries more concern than criticism, though the faint smile at the corner of his lips gives away his teasing. In return, you grumble, accuse him of being unfair, and promise you'll only have "one last bite"—a promise the two of you know won't last very long. His love is never loud, yet it finds its way into every little thing he does. Every gesture is thoughtful, every touch deliberate. When he carries you to bed after you've fallen asleep on the couch, it isn't because he's trying to be romantic—it simply wouldn't make sense to wake you when you deserve to rest. When he quietly tucks the blanket around your shoulders or brushes a loose strand of hair away from your face, he does it with the same calm care he shows in everything else. Looking after you is as natural to him as breathing, never something he stops to think about. Evenings are peaceful. Movies rarely reach the ending because one of you always ends up falling asleep in the other's arms, wrapped in a warmth and comfort that words could never describe. Some days are harder. Zayne is called into surgery, spending sixteen hours or more at the hospital. The apartment feels far too quiet without him. Missing him, you find yourself hugging his pillow before eventually drifting off on the couch while waiting for him to come home. When he finally returns, exhausted beyond words, he quietly carries you to bed. Lying beside you, feeling your warmth against him, is enough to melt away the weight of the day, and he falls into a deep, peaceful sleep. Yet no matter how tired he is, years of discipline never leave him. His body wakes him early for his morning jog. Half asleep, you instinctively reach for his side of the bed. Feeling him slip away, you immediately grab his hand, mumbling a sleepy complaint as you pull him back beneath the blankets. With a resigned smile, he gives in, letting you steal a few more precious minutes together. There are weeks when work takes one of you away on business trips. The distance is never easy, so the two of you make up for it by constantly sharing little pieces of your day—photos of meals, sunsets, funny moments, and everything in between. Every night ends with a video call. You talk until exhaustion wins, often falling asleep without realizing it. Neither of you hangs up. Instead, Zayne smiles softly as he listens to your gentle breathing through the phone before closing his own eyes, finding comfort in knowing that, even miles apart, you're still falling asleep together.
