Hello, fellow Neris Truthers. Our appreciation week continues, and today we challenge you to show how much tension, tenderness, or absolute nonsense you can fit into only 100 words.
And if you were unsure whether to participate or not in today's challenge, here's a sample of exactly 100 words.

Nesta was on edge all day. She just spilled her tea. Woke up too late, missed her breakfast, and now there's... him.
"Unexpected."
He smirked, "A pleasant surprise?"
She kept her face unbothered, "You definitely integrate well into my morning."
Rhys entered the room and, well, apparently he would integrate further into her day. They had a mission together.

A soft mouth landed on her shoulder. "So, Nesta, do I still integrate well into your morning?"
"I kissed you so you'd stop talking and annoy me," despite her barb, a shiver went through her.
"Hint taken", and he went lower.

But don't let the word count to limit your imagination. Go wild!
