“No way! It's really good." Cyrus tried to maintain his composure, but he was so excited that his voice wavered slightly. "Thankyou, Lauren. | love it... Oh, by the way..."
He reached into the car and retrieved a neatly packaged candy apple, his ears turning red with embarrassment. "I saw a candyapple stand on the way here and couldn't resist. | haven't eaten it. Let me give it to you."
Alyssa narrowed her eyes in confusion.
Knowing Cyrus' love for food, it seemed unlikely that he would still have the candy apple if he'd been craving it so much. It wasclear he had bought it for Lauren but was too shy to admit it.
"A candy apple?" A spark lit up Lauren's eyes.It was hard to believe that a wealthy girl like her had never experienced this common street snack.
Javier and Sophia had kept her sheltered at home due to her illness. She had a driver for school, rarely venturing out with friendslike other girls would.
Moreover, Javier had a disdain for street food, so while she had seen candy apples before, she had never tasted one.Cyrus opened the packaging and handed the candy apple to Lauren. He asked lightly, "Want to give it a try?"Initially shy, Lauren couldn't resist the temptation. She stuck her tongue out like a curious kitten and took a lick. "Oh, it's sweet!"
Cyrus felt a surge of joy welling up within him. A genuine smile, born from the depths of his heart, crept into the corners of hiseyes. Lauren's innocent expression was like the candy apple on a stick, slowly melting away under his intense gaze.

If he could, he would buy her candy apples all the time from now on.
Cyrus repeated his silent confession a thousand times in his heart. Yet, bit by bit, he pushed the thought aside—his confessiondissipated into the breeze with his gentle smile.

"Jasper," Alyssa called out to him softly."Hmm?" Jasper continued rinsing her body, leaning in for a kiss.
"Do you think... Landon or Cyrus would be better for Lauren?”
Alyssa traced his lips with her fingertips. "| want your unbiased opinion."Jasper's gaze darkened. "Lyse, are you trying to get Lauren and Cyrus together?"“Not really." Alyssa shook her head. "I just want Lauren to be happy."
