Max also almost lost control and pulled her into his hug. If not for their promise, he would already do that.

\'I want her to finish the lyrics today.\' He quietly decided in his mind. \'This is getting too dangerous. And she\'s getting too assertive.\'

"Thanks. Let\'s make it quick and go to the karaoke. It\'s… a bit embarrassing for me."

"Un. Agree."

Both of them began to move and shoot the needed scene. The cameras pointing at the bed could be controlled with a smartwatch.

However, the difficulty of shooting the scene increased tenfold when both realized their movements were too stiff. They weren\'t used to sleeping next to each other and couldn\'t be natural on it.

It took more than 10 no-good takes before they could move smoothly. Even then, both had a hard time maintaining a straight face and needed 5 more takes before they got a satisfactory result.

Max and Lily woke up, stretched, and looked at each other while smiling gently. Then, they threw the blanket away and jumped off the bed. At this point, Lily\'s body blocked the camera, which gave an opportunity for an easy transition.

"Finally." Max sighed tiredly as he watched the final product. "This is perfect."

"Un. We look like a couple." Lily affirmed with a nod, her smile looked so happy. She looked at Max and pulled his sleeve. "D-Don\'t you think so?" She asked shyly.

No more restrain. Max\'s last line of defense had crumbled for a long time now. He looked at her with a passionate gaze and opened his mouth.

"But let\'s hold on. I promise I will finish it soon."

Before he could say anything, Lily interrupted him with a teasing smile.

"So… Sorry, Max. But can we cancel the karaoke? I want you to stay with me for a while. The lyrics… I think I can finish it now."

"Really?" Max asked her in surprise, "That\'s great. Sure, I can cancel the plan. We can do karaoke in the future. And sure, I will accompany you until you finish your lyrics."

"Thanks."

Lily immediately exited the room without changing her pajamas. Max also followed her. They entered the living room, and she sat on the couch after getting headphones. She patted the place beside her.

"Umm, Max? I can only compose while lying down, so… If possible, can I?"

Without needing her to spell it, Max understood what she wanted to say. He sat next to her and patted his thighs.

"Sure. I will watch something in the meantime."

Hearing that, Lily\'s face brightened. She slowly let her head fall onto his lap.

\'He smells so good.\' She thought as she kept herself from blushing. Her heart was beating so fast that she was sure Max could hear it. \'I need to start working. I don\'t want to forget the lyrics.\'

Lily was good at concentration. Once she wore her headphones, she entered her own world. A music program lay in front of her.

Because she wasn\'t in a studio, she used AI voice to create the base song first. She entered the finished melody and began typing the lyrics.

Run and run until you reach the end.

Time wasn\'t on your side. Take this hand and run.

Dance and laugh even when the world falls.

Love will take you far away.

Have you tasted it? Have you felt it?

The sweet and soft feeling.

You\'ve got it all. Breeze will take you away.

Run and run. Become one with him. Let him fly you away.

Oh, poor flower. Fly and see. You will dance and dance.

In the sky above.

Seeing something new. For a moment, you would know what freedom is.

Oh, breeze. Take her away. Let her dance and spread her wings.

Like a poor Lily she is. Take her away.

Give her a new home—to where she belongs.

Lily played her song and listened to it. The lyrics were finished. For her, it was good enough. Her new style was different from the past ones, but she was happy. This was her tribute—a tribute to someone who spread her wings.

Some people might realize her identity if they connected the lyrics with a couple who had been a viral sensation in Strike. However, she didn\'t care. She felt like just her identity as LilyPixel would create a drama. Some haters would say she wanted to use Max to gain views or something.

Having experienced dramas involving her brother, she knew how those people thought. But if they stood at an even ground, they would probably just make it headlines.

White Lily was LilyPixel, and she was also Lily Spencer. It might bring another controversy, saying Max only aimed at her for her money. Still, that would be easy to fix. Her brother would take care of that. He had promised her.

And StoneSword was trustworthy and never let anyone near his sister. A word from him would flip every controversy to congratulations.

A smile graced her face as she took off her headphones. It had been a few hours. She was worried that Max would get tired of lending his lap to her.

"Max, I am do–"

She stopped before finishing because she saw him sleeping. He must be tired. Not to mention, he said he woke up early tonight.

For some reason, his sleeping face looked cute to her. She raised her head slowly, not to wake him up, and caressed his cheek.

"Hehe, so cute." She giggled softly and leaned forward. "So precious."

Lily\'s face was now close to him. What influenced her? For some reason, her confidence soared, and she wasn\'t embarrassed to do this.

Just as their nose touched, she spoke the words she had been keeping for long. Not even she could keep this feeling down.

"I love you."

And their lips met in the silent living room.
