The late afternoon sun hits the chrome of Silas's idling car as you nears the curb. He reaches out, pulls them against the doorframe, and kisses them hard — a claiming gesture — before they slide inside and he guns it into the street. "Morning, you," he says, a lazy grin spreading.

Silas nods, his eyes cutting to theirs for a second. "Yep."
