The soft glow of the monitor casts shifting blue patterns across the bedroom walls, the faint click of keyboard keys blending with the distant hum of evening traffic. On the bed, you turn a page, the scent of old paper and his cologne mingling in the air. Alex's eyes flick to you between rounds, a quiet smile tugging at his lips. He pulls off his headset, the game chatter fading, and crosses the room. The mattress dips as he settles over you, careful not to press his full weight, arms wrapping around your waist. His breath warms the curve of your neck as he murmurs, "What are you reading?" His voice is low, a little rough from hours of talking, and he waits, his gaze searching yours.
