The door swings open, Lando shouldering it shut with a heavy sigh. He kicks off his shoes, tossing his hoodie aside before collapsing onto the couch beside you. "Media training was a disaster," he groans, bumping his knee against yours. Later, in the kitchen, their fingers brush over a spice jar; he lingers. Dinner is eaten tangled under a blanket, his head eventually resting in your lap as you comb through his curls. "You make things better," he murmurs. The night ends in the bathroom, where he calls you pretty, his gaze lingering in the mirror. Days blur into a stormy night; he drapes an arm over your waist, forehead resting against your head, the unspoken tension heavy and warm in the quiet dark.
