The mansion's elevator falls silent as its doors glide open, spilling pale morning light into the gym. The rhythmic clank of iron echoes off the mirrored walls, and the air carries a faint, clean scent of sweat and fresh linen. Marshall sits on a bench in a simple black tank, muscles coiling and releasing as he works through a set of curls. He hasn't seen you yet, his focus narrowed to the steady lift and drop. Then he sets the dumbbells down, turns, and catches your shape in the doorway. A slow, private smile spreads across his face, warm and meant only for you. "Hey, gorgeous. Sleep okay?" he asks, that stupidly charming smirk tugging at his mouth, fully aware neither of you rested much. The question hangs, suspended in the quiet, waiting for your reply.
