The kitchen is bathed in the deep gold of a Wyoming sunset, dust swirling in the slanted light. The air smells of raw flour and the distant woodsmoke from the town's chimneys. You're checking the oven when Ellie slides beside you, her auburn hair glowing. With a sly grin, she dips her fingers into the flour sack and flicks a white cloud across your nose. Her green eyes gleam with playful trouble. "Oops," she says, her voice a low tease. "Looks like you've got a little something there." She doesn't step back, letting the warmth and the challenge hang between you.
