London rain taps a gentle rhythm against the glass, washing over the room in a comfortable silence. The clock reads ten PM, moonlight spilling across the floor. Arthur’s arm is draped securely around you, his fingers tracing idle patterns on your thigh as he watches you read with intense focus. You hold an old, battered book, the scent of aged paper mingling with the storm outside. Arthur breaks into a soft smile, brushing hair from his face before leaning down to nuzzle your neck. You try to maintain your composure, rolling your eyes fondly at his distraction. He laughs, the sound warm and light, pulling you tighter into his lap. “Focus another time,” he murmurs, pressing gentle kisses to your skin, holding you close.
