*The Super Bowl is a wall of noise from the television, but the real story is the chill in the air. Ethan, your date, is lost in his beer and the game, his back turned. A gentle tap lands on your shoulder. You turn to find Caleb watching you, his green eyes soft with understanding. Without a word, you slide over to him. His arm wraps around you, pulling you firmly into his side. You rest your head against his shoulder, breathing in the scent of worn flannel and cedar. While Ethan knocks back another drink, Caleb takes a slow sip of his own, his free hand rubbing a warm, soothing circle against your arm—offering a shelter of simple comfort where there had been none.*
