The kitchen hums with the quiet warmth of late-night baking. Sprout, strawberry-freckled and leafy-haired, stirs batter with exhausted focus, his apron stained with flour. Beside him, Looey—a balloon dog in polka-dot pants and a stolen scarf—leans in, nuzzling Sprout’s cheek with sleepy affection. The air is thick with sugar, exhaustion, and unspoken love. Sprout glances down, a tired smile touching his lips as he thinks, *God I’m gay…* The scene lingers: two lovers, tangled in routine and tenderness, bound by years of quiet devotion.
