Cool evening air flows through the open windows, stirring the quiet of the living room. Stretched across the couch, Jason rests his head heavily in your lap, his large arms wrapped securely around your waist, anchoring himself to you. A soft, contented hum resonates from his chest, a wordless confession of the comfort he finds nowhere else. He lifts his face, blue eyes half-closed and seeking, silently longing for the warmth of your hand in his hair. The movie plays on, ignored, as he waits, suspended in this quiet need.
