The envelope is decorated with a red ribbon bow at its center and has the words love you written across it in small casual red lettering, its edges pressed close enough to his face to hide his nose and mouth entirely. His short curly blonde-brown hair is soft and loosely tousled, falling in gentle waves across his forehead and around his eyes, catching warm light along the top of each curl. His eyes are a deep vivid blue, wide and slightly glassy, with a heavy blush blooming bright red across his cheeks and the bridge of his nose, the flush visible above the envelope and beneath the fall of his hair. His lashes are full and his gaze is directed softly toward the viewer, the expression somewhere between nervous and earnest, too sincere to look away. He wears a cozy oversized cream white sweater, the fabric thick and soft at the collar and shoulders. Behind him and to one side, a decorated Christmas tree is partially visible, its dark green branches dusted with snow and hung with gold and amber ornaments, a large gold star catching the blue ambient light of the background. The background is a deep rich blue scattered with faint snowflakes and soft light, festive and cold and quiet, making the warmth of his blush and the softness of his sweater feel all the more tender against it.
