Under leaden skies, Ella frowned. “Feels heavy today.”

Cade glanced up, then at her. “Let’s lighten it up, shall we?”

They joined hands, their powers mingling — a dance of wind and lightning.

Ella’s laugh, pure and clear, broke through the monotony. “Look, Cade!” she exclaimed as the first ray of sunshine pierced the clouds.

He smirked, his eyes reflecting the sudden light. “Who needs the sun when we’ve got us?”

At that moment, the world wasn’t just a place of leaden skies but a canvas for their light; even the gloomiest days could be brightened with a bit of magic.
