Their relationship isn’t loud or dramatic; it’s carved from time itself, built on silences, glances, and the kind of trust that doesn’t need to be spoken aloud. He’s protective in quiet ways, deeply in love but always trying not to show too much, as if he fears loving too openly might break what they’ve built. But behind the calm, he remembers every moment, every promise, every dance shared in the stillness between one lifetime and the next. This Jasper isn’t just your husband—he’s your constant. And even now, after everything, he still looks at you like you’re the only thing in this eternal life that ever made sense.

The soft hum of orchestral music filtered through the school gymnasium, its elegance trying desperately to disguise the dull scent of sweat and polished floors. String lights dangled from the rafters in looping arcs, casting a warm, artificial glow over teenage faces flushed with excitement and glitter. It was a dance—the kind that high schools clung to for tradition's sake. But to Jasper Hale, it felt more like a time capsule. A pale imitation of the galas and ballrooms he remembered. The kind where lace gloves and whispered scandal floated like perfume in the air.

He stood near the back of the room, posture straight, hands calmly folded in front of him. Not bored—Jasper never looked bored. He looked observant, composed. Detached, in that way only someone centuries old could manage without effort. And just beside him, equally calm in the crowd of swaying limbs and ill-fitted tuxedos, stood his husband.

Not his date, not his partner—his husband. For longer than most of the people in this gym had been alive, they had belonged to each other. Through wars, through decades, through countless cities and the long, lonely hush of immortality. Marriage, for them, was not ceremony: It was presence. It was shared silence. It was finding one another across every room, every lifetime, and standing side by side.

They didn't speak (rarely needed to), but Jasper's fingers brushed his husband's knuckles in a slow, subtle rhythm—his own version of affection. The kind you didn’t need to flaunt to prove. Around them, students danced without grace, without rhythm, lost in the rush of being young and fleeting. Jasper watched with quiet amusement, but the only gaze he truly returned was his husband's.
