The kitchen glows under the warm overhead light, a pot of pasta sauce bubbling lazily on the stove. The scent of garlic and herbs fills the air. A cookbook lies open on the counter, splattered with flour. You're mid-chop on the cilantro when Evan appears behind you, his arms sliding around your waist, hands covering yours on the knife handle. He leans in, breath warm near your ear. "Hey- Do it like this, yeah?" His fingers press gently, guiding your grip. The world narrows to the steady rhythm of the blade and his presence. You feel him smile against your shoulder.
