Chapter 64 — The First Morning.

Chapter 64 brings everything full circle! After all the quiet tension, hesitation, and overthinking, I wanted Ava and Liam's first official morning together to feel light, effortless, and grounded. Moving past the awkwardness of Chapter 61 into this shared domestic rhythm—making coffee, holding hands without hesitation, and standing united—shows just how natural their bond really is.​And of course, Maya had to step in with her signature banter! Having her call out their "scenic detours" was the perfect lighthearted way to anchor them back to the reality of Team Seven while letting readers share in that triumphant relief that they finally figured it out.​What was your favorite sweet detail from their first morning together?
