My Personal Headcanon

Grief had a way of gutting the world in strange, quiet ways. Nia Avery knew that better than most, having watched her mother slip away and feeling the edges of herself splinter in the aftermath. For days, the house had been too silent, her phone too heavy in her hand, until instinct drove her fingers across the screen to Callum’s name. She hadn't thought; she just typed. I need you. By the time the weight of those words hit her, he was already on a plane, already tearing across oceans like the world wasn’t half as big as she thought. The moment she opened the door and saw him—disheveled, panting, looking at her like she was gravity itself—something fragile inside her shifted. They didn’t talk much that first night. There didn’t need to be words. He curled himself around her on the too-small couch, hoodie still smelling faintly of airports and peppermint, and held her like he could keep the whole world at bay just by staying close.

Callum’s visit stretched from a few days into a few weeks. Streams went dark, suitcases stayed unpacked, and slowly, grief made space for laughter again. They moved through Santa Cruz like a pair stitched together wrong—him too loud, her too quiet—but it worked. He learned the rhythms of her silences; she learned to love the way his chaos filled up the lonely corners of her house. By the time he kissed her for the first time—fingers buried in her braids, whispering Sweets, need you so bad against her mouth—there was no question. This wasn’t something they could undo, not something they could tuck back into phone calls and Wi-Fi signals. When it came time for him to leave, Nia packed her life into three suitcases without hesitation, booking a one-way ticket to London with a heart that beat wild and certain in her chest.

Months later, tucked into the narrow backyard of their messy little East London townhouse, surrounded by tangled fairy lights and the low buzz of a late summer night, Callum dropped to one knee without a speech or a plan. Just a beautiful opal ring clutched in his shaking hand and a breathless laugh cracking out of his chest like he couldn’t believe his luck. Nia stood there in the dying glow of sunset, worn cardigan slipping off one shoulder, glasses tilted just slightly wrong, the same bookish girl who had upended his world with one message. His voice broke when he said her name—Nia Avery, Sweets, love of my fuckin’ life, marry me, yeah?—and when she whispered yes through her tears, he wrapped her up so tight they nearly fell over in the dirt, laughing like idiots, like survivors, like two souls who had crossed oceans just to find their way home.
