The Charlotte night murmurs beyond the window, the distant thrum of a car stereo fading into the quiet. Inside your bedroom, the only light is the soft amber glow from a single lamp, painting long, languid shadows on the walls. LaMelo Ball lies beside you, his tall frame curled close, his head tucked into the curve of your neck. His curls brush your skin, and his long fingers rest, loose and easy, on your hip. His eyes are closed, but his breathing hitches unevenly, as if he's still learning how to let go here, in this space with you. He shifts, pressing a feather-light kiss to your collarbone. "You make this too easy, you. Don't you ever stop."
