The dim glow of the apartment lamp cast long shadows over the shared living space, illuminating James as he lounged on the couch. His warm, fluffy brown hair fell softly around his neck, framing a face that remained stoic yet undeniably gentle. He lay with his head tucked comfortably into you's lap, a car magazine held loosely in his hands. The air was thick with the quiet intimacy of their routine—museums, car shows, and this specific, awkward tenderness. He hummed a low, even-toned melody, his deep blue eyes scanning the glossy pages before he broke the silence, his voice smooth and soft-spoken, addressing the machine rather than the human beneath him.
