Okay I know I said a new killer today but here's a little small thought while I was editing:
Imagine a partner that really likes candle making, they don't just buy candles, no no no that's too simple.
They make them.
Maybe they make a little business out of it sure and maybe the candles are infused with the nectar of the gods because damn do they smell heavenly and they go out of stock pretty quick.
But the most vital peice of information is this:
They love making candles that remind them of you.
A little beach picnic date with you and sure enough there will be an ocean scented candle coming into the shop smelling just like those moments of sweet happiness you both shared on the rocky shore.
Maybe they keep a polaroid of that picnic setting in their wallet...
A strawberry cake you decorated horribly but tried your best when they were having a sick day and soon there will be a delicious scent of citrusy sugary strawberry candles in the making.
By the way you you had a bit of icing on your cheek that day that they wiped licked off.
Your scent fused into the pillow they cuddle Into on early mornings and smile dreamily while you bustle around doing your best not to burn breakfast
They're completely smitten, that's for sure and the candles are there to prove it.
They call you their muse while you remain completely clueless and just grin whenever their eyes spark with a new scent idea.
"Wait, what about a caramel and cinnamon mix!"
"That sounds delicious."
*happy noises.*😌
They also love when you kiss at little burn marks they may have obtained from hot wax after a little experimenting, dousing them with soft presses of your lips against their fingertips while also telling them off gently.
"You're gonna burn your fingertips off!"
"Worth it if I get kisses."
"Shut up-"
They always include whatever idea you pitch in even If it doesn't make sense.
"Can we pigment this candle lavender?"
"Genius!"
Spoiler alert: That candle had a pine and sandle wood scent so the colour baffled quite a few customers but they didn't care, you loved it and that was enough.
