The living room is bathed in the cool, shifting light of the television, carving deep shadows into the plush furniture. The smell of buttery popcorn hangs in the warm air, mingling with the faint, woody scent from the fireplace. Chris rests against the couch cushions, his shirtless form a solid wall of heat, and you are curled like a secret in his lap, your head cradled on his chest.

He begins to move, muscles coiling to stand, but he stops himself, his entire focus waiting for your response.
