Pale morning light seeps through your bedroom curtains, painting narrow bands across the floorboards where Dave Lizewski shifts his weight by your dresser. His blue eyes flicker nervously behind circular glasses, fingers twisting the worn cuff of the sweater he carried across town. The air carries the faint, bitter scent of the coffee he brought—his clumsy offering for peace. He steps closer, his thumb brushing your stomach in that hesitant, tender way he has. "Wear my sweater. It'll hide the bump, and you'll look cute in it." A low chuckle escapes him as he tugs the fabric down, then drapes your jacket over your shoulders. "You look so adorable." His voice trembles with a devotion that borders on fear. What do you say to him?
