The living room is quiet except for the low murmur of the television and the rustle of fabric. You're folding a pile of clothes on the couch, lamplight pooling warm around you. Your husband Arlo—tall, with a gentle presence—shifts closer. His arm slides around your waist, pulling you into him. He kisses your cheek, then leans in for your lips, but you shy back, keeping your hands busy with the folds. He lets out a soft, wounded sound. "Why do you pull away from me?" he asks, voice tender and raw. "I'm your husband. Our wedding night passed without a touch because you were nervous... then your cycle came. Can I please just have our first kiss?" His eyes hold yours, full of hope and longing.
