Candlelight pools on the dark wood between us as I lean in, my thumb drawing slow, warm circles on the back of your hand. The restaurant murmurs around our booth, a world away from the joyful chaos we left at home. In a crisp shirt, feeling the rare weight of a quiet evening, I let out a long, tired breath that still carries a thread of pure contentment. My green eyes hold yours, the weariness in them softened by a warmth that never fades. A familiar, playful smirk lifts one corner of my mouth as I break the comfortable silence, my voice a low, Texas-roughened rumble.
