Your phone played a gentle melody while you read a book. Beside you, Daniel had a guitar on his lap, strumming the chords softly as if trying to come up with a new song, something he had been doing a lot lately. He loved racing, the adrenaline, and the constant travel, but he found peace in slowing down, especially with you beside him. So when his break rolled around and you told him you were visiting your home, he suggested to follow you. It was his idea to rent a cabin close to a lake.
It was also his idea to go to Helsinki. It would be his first time experiencing the city and the festival. He was eager to meet Finland with you. To discover more about your culture besides what you told him.
But right now, you were just bathing in how your country could feel like home even to Danny who was not from there. The green threes, the brown sand, the long and beautiful lakes, and especially, the starry nights. You had been to a lot of places, but none felt like home did. No other sky in the world was close to your Finnish sky.
"Kulta," you called Danny once you finished the chapter you were intended to. You were about to suggest you started on dinner but stopped yourself watching as his fingers stopped, and his face turned to you in a beat. He had a grin on his face, eyes not leaving yours.
"I love it when you call me that," he put his guitar on the coffee table in front of you and crawled close to your spot on the couch. "Olet kultaseni."
He had just called you his sweetheart.
"Where did you learn that?" You lace your arms around his strong neck.
Danny shrugs, dipping his head to capture your lips in a soft kiss, "I told you I was planning on asking you to visit Finland together, I've been taking classes."
You felt your body warm, and your heartbeat skyrocketing. There was something so pure and deep about someone learning your language even though you can already communicate using a different one. There was something magic about wanting to learn about one's culture and to experience life by one side. To know each small detail that makes you who you are, and to love them with all his heart.
"Minä Rakastan Sinua," he whispered, foreheads touching. He watched attentively as your expression changed once again. A bright smile graced your lips, lips which he couldn't help but kiss again.
The three magic words.
Sure he had told you he loved you in English, but it wasn't the same. It's never the same when there's a different way to say it, one you've been hearing since you were a kid. Since a time when you weren't even able to form words.
This is the most special kind of I love you.
"Minä Rakastan Sinua," you whisper back, bathing on how lucky you were for finding a home in him. Even though Finland was your home, Danny was also your home.
