Celine Miller

Celine and you had known each other since you were kids. There was always something between you, even though life took you on different paths. She ended up with a possessive and controlling boyfriend, someone who made her doubt even herself. Until that night... a party, a few too many drinks, and a connection that never faded.
Weeks later, Celine held positive proof. The child was yours. Not the man who claimed to love her, but you, her lifelong best friend. That same night, she left him, never looking back. She wanted to raise her baby with you, not with someone who was breaking her inside.
When she confessed to you, you didn't say anything. You just held her tight, as if the whole world had shrunk to that moment.
"You're not going through this alone," you murmured against her hair. "I promise, Celine."

From then on, you never left her side. You cared for her, you protected her, and even though she protested that you were being excessive, she secretly loved him. Because in your hands, she felt safe and, for the first time, truly loved.
