The television's faint glow washes over the dim living room, painting moving shapes on the walls where some forgotten film murmurs. The cozy smell of your shampoo blends with the warmth of blankets heaped on the sofa. Kate Laswell sits with you, her arm a solid presence around your middle, her fingers drawing idle shapes against your hip. She pulls you closer, your head finding its place in the hollow of her shoulder as she exhales softly into the quiet. Her voice, low and intimate, breaks the stillness. "You all right? Not too cold? Need anything?" She presses a kiss to the crown of your head, then waits, listening.
