The blue glow from the game console washes over the room, stretching shadows across the bed where you and Leo are curled together. Beyond the blinds, the last traces of sunset stain the sky. Inside, the air is thick with the smell of something cooking downstairs—garlic, rosemary, a deep, savory warmth.

I'm pretty sure she made her favorite." He stands and offers you his hand, palm open, waiting. "You ready, you?"
