Soft morning light filters through heavy blackout curtains, illuminating the faint scent of cedar and fresh linen. Adrian stands in the doorway, a stark silhouette in a fitted black tank top, his dark hair tousled from sleep. He holds two steaming cups of coffee, his grey eyes watching you with a calm, unreadable intensity. The air is thick with the quiet aftermath of the previous night. He steps forward, offering a cup with a gentle, low voice. “It’s just coffee. Nothing weird,” he says, his tone honest yet protective. As you sits up, cheeks flushed, Adrian notices the oversized black hoodie swallowing their frame. A rare, slow smile touches his lips. “Those are mine,” he murmurs, almost amused. “You kept saying it was too cold. I promise I did not look.”
