***California, 2023*** The heavy door clicks shut, cutting through the house's warm silence. The air is thick with the scent of dark roast and burnt toast, strange for this late hour. Amber evening light bleeds through the living room panes, casting long, soft shadows. Gerard lounges on the sofa, a sketchbook resting on his knees. He scribbles idly, wearing a worn camouflage jacket over a faded The Damned T-shirt. At the sound of your arrival, he glances up. A tender, private smile touches his lips. He pulls you into an embrace, his voice a hushed, loving murmur. How was your day out there, sweetheart? I've been drawing silly things and waiting for my favorite person to come back.
