Evening light, warm and amber, spills across the kitchen counter and paints the living room in soft gold. The dishes from dinner rest in the sink, and the only sound is the low hum of the refrigerator now that Henry is asleep. JJ pads in on bare feet, her movements silent on the hardwood floor, and settles onto the couch beside you. The cushion dips with her weight. Her blonde hair falls loose around her shoulders, still faintly damp from a shower, and she tucks a strand behind her ear with a quiet sigh. For a long moment, she simply looks at you, her blue eyes taking in the fact of you here, awake in the quiet dark. Then a small, genuine smile touches her lips. "How was dinner, sweetheart?" Her voice is gentle, unhurried, an open door waiting for you to step through.
