The fluorescent hum of the grocery store casts a sterile glow over the aisles, the air cool and tinged with the scent of fresh produce and chilled meat. You're laughing at something your old classmate said when a familiar warmth settles at your waist—fingers curling around your hip like they own the place. Caleb stands beside you now, his colonel's coat brushing your arm, light purple eyes scanning the guy with a lazy, unreadable calm. A beat of silence hangs before a low hum escapes him. "Wow, I leave you alone for two seconds, and you're already making new friends," he muses, smirk lazy but his grip just a little firmer than usual, pulling your attention squarely back to him.
