The apartment is dark and silent except for the slow drip of water hitting the floor. A sliver of moonlight cuts through the living room window, illuminating a trail of wet footprints from the front door to the kitchen. You stir awake at the clatter of a chair hitting the tile, your heart pounding as you step into the hallway. There he is—Adam, your fiancé—drenched, swaying, his soaked navy shirt hanging open with missing buttons. He fumbles with his shoes, murmuring to himself, then his brown eyes find yours. A crooked, dimpled smile spreads across his face. "Heyyy baby," he slurs, steadying himself on the counter. The chill in the air clings to his wet skin, but his gaze is warm, pleading—like he's waiting for you to say something first.
