Stella’s P.O.V.Today, I thought I would die. I was terrified, and all I could think about was Alex praying to see him one last time.Then he came to save me, putting his own life in danger. He stepped into the fire for me without caring about himself for even a second. His actions proved how much he loves me. All my doubts have been cleared. I’m now completely sure that nobody can love me more than Alex.It’s said true everything happens for a reason. I had to go through heartbreak because God had a bigger plan for me—a plan that would lead me to someone who would love me unconditionally, without limits or fear.We’re now in the college medical room. A nurse is applying ointment to his burn. It’s hard to look at without my chest tightening painfully. Tears keep slipping down my cheeks, and every time he notices, he gives me that reassuring smile, telling me over and over that he’s fine.But I know it’s hurting him. I can see it in the way his jaw clenches, the slight flinch he tries


Alex’s P.O.V.We arrive back home after dinner. My burned arm aches like hell, but I try not to let it show because Stella is already worried enough.As we step inside, I see Dad sitting with Stella’s mother on the couch. They both notice me wincing slightly as I move my arm, and their expressions shift immediately to concern.“Alex, what happened to you?” Dad approaches as he notices the bandage.Before I can answer, Stella steps forward. “There… there was a fire in our classroom, and Alex protected me.”Stella’s mother places her hand on my uninjured shoulder. “Thank you, Alex. I can’t even imagine…” Her voice fades off, gratitude clear in her eyes.Dad nods, giving me a proud smile. “That’s brave of you, son. But you need to rest now. Go on, get some sleep.”I turn to head to my room, and Stella follows me. As we reach outside my room, she leans close and whispers, “I’ll come to your room from the balcony after taking a shower.”“I’ll be waiting for you.” I lean in and kiss her ch

Stella’s P.O.V.The next day, as I get ready for college, I make sure to wear the watch. I don’t want to go to college without Alex. But I can’t stay with him because my mom will start to suspect something. I’m not ready to tell her about us yet. I’m scared of how she’ll react, or if she’ll try to keep us apart.I can’t even imagine living without Alex now.Through the balcony, I enter Alex’s room. My chest becomes heavy with pain as I find him wincing in pain, sitting on the sofa. He didn’t get much sleep last night either. Every time he shifted, I could feel his discomfort. I wish I could take away all his pain with a snap of my fingers.I approach him with sadness evident in my eyes. Although he is in pain, he smiles at me and takes my hand in his before gently pulling me onto his lap. “Flower, I’ll be fine. Don’t worry,” he says, placing his hand on my face, his thumb brushing over my cheek.I sigh, letting my fingers trace the bandage on his arm. “Alex, I just can’t stand seeing

Stella’s P.O.V.Two Weeks LaterAfter the last lecture of the day, I leave for the mall. Tomorrow is my birthday, but all I can think about is surprising Alex. For the past two weeks, I’ve been holding back from telling him how I really feel, resisting the urge to confess my love. I want this moment to be perfect, something unforgettable—for both of us.I’ve waited for his arm to heal properly, and now that he’s almost back to full strength, it feels like the perfect time to show him how much he means to me.Thankfully, he has gone to another college for a basketball match today, giving me the entire day to arrange everything for my surprise.I’m going to buy a dress for myself, but it’ll be a sexy one—just for Alex. He makes me feel confident about my body, and I know that now when I wear it, I’ll truly love how I look. That asshole used to make me feel horrible about myself every chance he got, but Alex is completely different. There’s no comparison between them. My Alex is perfect—

Alex’s P.O.V.“Anyway, what were you doing in the mall?” I question, glancing at Stella, who is sitting in the passenger seat beside me as I drive us back home.“Actually, I’ve also planned something for my birthday.”My eyes widen in surprise at her words. “What? Why didn’t you tell me?”“Because it was a surprise for you, Alex.” She pouts at me.I shake my head in disbelief. “You’re planning something for me on your birthday? Unbelievable.”“You deserve it.” She locks her eyes filled with profound love on me. “You’ve done so much for me, Alex. I want this birthday to be about us.”I glance over, feeling like I’m falling for her all over again. “You know, you’re amazing.”She reaches over and squeezes my hand. “Then just wait. Tomorrow will be unforgettable—for both of us. And you won’t stop praising me.”“I’m quite excited now. But what about the surprise I’ve planned for you?” I raise my brows at her.“Your surprise?” She taps her finger on her chin thoughtfully, which brings a smi
