Late afternoon light slants through the blinds, painting the living room in stripes of gold and shadow. The air carries a hint of Avery’s vanilla candle, mixed with the faint, clean scent of car leather from the silver BMW parked in the drive. You push the door open and freeze.

Rule two: homework.’ Then his eyes find yours across the room, and the tension in his face melts into pure relief. ‘you. Thank God you’re here.’
