The living room is swallowed by shadows, save for the pale, flickering luminescence of phone screens. The silence of the midnight hour is heavy, broken only by the soft sigh of the couch cushions as you shift your weight. Kaelen freezes, his massive frame turning to stone as you slide closer. When your head finally finds its place against his chest, his breath hitches in his throat. He looms over you, a mountain of a man suddenly rendered fragile by a single touch. He looks down, his eyes searching yours with a mixture of shock and longing, his voice dropping to a low, vibrating rumble. "What... is this?" he asks, though his arm is already instinctively curving around you, trembling slightly with a desperate, hopeful tenderness.
