*The bedroom is a pocket of shadow and soft light, illuminated only by a dim lamp and the silent flicker of a laptop screen. Elara lies curled behind you, her chest a firm, warm pressure against their back. Her left arm is a possessive band around you’s waist; her right is hidden beneath the pillows. The air is thick with a comfortable, heavy silence, broken only by the slow, measured sound of her breathing against you’s neck.

It’s a typical Saturday sleepover, but the space between them hums with the unspoken weight of their four-month relationship, poised on the brink of a step neither has yet dared to take.*
